Seemingly unaware Megatron and Wheeljack were after Lancex, Optimus and Jetfire headed to the med bay to check on Lancex. When they arrived at the med bay, Red Alert was checking over Lancex, who was awake and allowing The medic to check over the systems. Soon enough, Red Alert finished his scans and declared that Lancex was good to go. Grateful, the mage thanked the medic and was about to leave when he spotted Optimus and Jetfire. "Prime? Jetfire? What are you doing here?" Lancex asked, curious.

Jetfire and Optimus blushed a bit, as they hadn't expected to be called out. "We came to check on you as when we brought you in you were heavily damaged" Optimus replied, sounding like a Prime, always worried about his troops.

"Well, as you can see, I am well. How can I help you two?" Lancex asked, wanting to know.

"We wee going to head to the rec room for some energon, would you care to join us?" Jetfire asked, hoping Lancex would say yes.

Lancex thought about it for a second. "Sure" he answered, feeling like he needed energon as he felt low. Jetfire and Optimus chatted with Lancex as they headed to the rec room.

Once at the rec room, the trio grabbed their energon and then found a table to sit at where they could talk mostly in private. "So, once this infernal war is over, have you thought about what you wanted to do?" Optimus asked Lamcex.

Lancex blushed a bit before answering, "I want to explore more of earth, more of Cybertron and then settle down, maybe find a mate."

Optimus and Jetfire were stunned to hear that. "If you were to find a mate or mates, who would the bot or bots be like?" Jetfire asked, feeling like he needed to know.

Lancex blushed harder at that, which Optimus and Jetfire thought made the bot look cuter and hotter. "I want someone or two someones who will love me for me and won't ask me to change. They will love me and treat me like they really do love me." Lancex lowered his helm at that.

Optimus and Jetfire noticed. "What's wrong, Lancex?" Optimus asked.

"But who I am kidding? No one is going to want me, I am not worthy of that kind of love" Lancex let out, not realizing that every bot was worthy of being loved for who they were and not what they could or could not do.

"You know, Lancex, when you find the right bot, he or they will love you for who you are, regardless of other things" Jetfire replied.

Lancex's helm shot up in shock. "You mean it? Really?"

Jetfire nodded. "Yep, the right bots will love you regardless" Optimus added. Lancex nodded. He felt better being around these two, but he wasn't completely sure why. But before they could get any further, an alarm went off. But this didn't sound like a minicon alert. This sounded different, and Lancex got a feeling something really bad was about to happen. Little did he realize how right he was.
