Title: A Costume Party
Characters: Cyclonus, Tailgate, and one other character.
Pairings: Cyclogate
"Tailgate, what are you doing?"
Cyclonus raised a suspicious eye as he noticed Tailgate kneeling in the corner if the hab suite.
The mini bot was humming an old song Cyclonus had taught him recently, but with him crouching in the corner and humming.
"Tailgate?"
The white mech looked up at Cyclonus, finally realizing he was there.
"Oh! Sorry Cyclonus-I didn't realize you were there," he said. As Tailgate stood up, Cyclonus noticed the wriggling form that Tailgate was attending to.
"Is that-?"
"Oh yeah!" Tailgate turned to look at his handiwork.
"Does Sunstreaker-"
"He let me borrow him, and besides-he looks cute!"
Cyclonus took all his willpower to keep his expression neutral.
Oh all the things a Tailgate dressed up that Insecticon, it had to be a . . . a . . .
Eggplant?
The fabric his hab-mate had managed to stuff Bob in was of the stretchy material. Bob however, didn't seem to mind.
Around his neck was a green, but coarse collar made to resemble the top of the Earth vegetable. A little cap, a hubcap painted green, with green foil for a wilted stem adorned the pet's head, and Bob's hind quarters, his rump especially, was dutifully covered with purple velvet, to look round.
"I'm afraid to ask where you got the material," Cyclonus raised an optic ridge.
"Oh! From Swerve mostly. Whirl gave me the hubcap to put the green foil on Bob's hat-but isn't he cute~!"
Cyclonus was about to say otherwise, but the little vermin seemed to like toddling around in his costume.
"It's theme night at Swerve's-dress like a type of Earthling food. Does an energon cube count? That's what I'm going as and …"
As Tailgate continued to talk and talk, Cyclonus can only sit on his berth, and watch as Tailgate lit up as he explained his handiwork.
Cyclonus helped Tailgate get the crate-painted to look like an energon cube-over his head.
"Can you see?" Cyclonus asked as Tailgate's helm struggled to pop through the top opening of the cube.
"Yup!" He nodded, once he managed.
"C'mon Bob, we don't wanna be late!" He headed out as Bob waddled after Tailgate.
Cyclonus's resolve broke and the most minute if smiles graced his face.
"You coming Cyclonus?"
"I'll be there soon, Tailgate."
A/N: Hello hello! It's certainly been months since I last posted anything here.
Unfortunately, that also means that I've lost the docs I've foolishly stored here, meaning I'll have to start over on some chapters/fics in progress.
The subsequent postings shall be of my stuff from tumblr-yes I have one now, of the same name.
Have a good day/night my friends! :)
