Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum

by rainlightautumn

A collection of various drabbles, mostly centered on Jazz and Prowl, with the occasional medic and seeker trine popping in from time to time. Oh, and Santa Claus. But it's okay--Skywarp knows him. Pop culture references galore.

2. 1930's Movies

Prompt: 1930's Movies {179 words}

Every week, when able, Jazz and Prowl pick a decade and watch movies from that decade.

The two mechs have learned many lessons through these exercises about humanity and its history--as well as about their fellow Autobots. In the end, it was decided that The Wizard of Oz was never to be watched, thought of, or spoken of again ("Prowler? Prowl, it's all cool, man." "How can a Scarecrow do anything if he has no brain? It...it doesn't make any SENSE.") ; Alice in Wonderland was disturbing and neither 'bot quite wanted to figure out what that film said about humanity ("Was is just me, or does the rabbit guy remind you of Red Alert?" "Jazz...hahehrumph." "Gotcha to laugh, Prowler, can't hide it!"); and any films with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in them will forever be associated with Jazz jumping up and swinging Prowl into an impromptu dance inspired by one they had just watched.

When asked by a curious Bluestreak which film he enjoyed the most this week, Prowl smiles softly and responds, "Shall We Dance."
