Author's Note: I've teamed up with Prophet21 to get rules written up for your amusement. As for their ideas, it is awesomesauce and I have to thank them for the ideas! XD For the time being all the rules are Halloween themed since it's October. Enjoy!
Also, rule #90 was partially inspired by something my brother encountered when he was helping out watch little kids at the church. I'll give you a hint about what it was: Despicable Me.
Rule #85: Attempting stupid things will put you under close surveillance of the Autobots.
(Riley!)
(She teamed up with Wheeljack and Bumblebee this time.)
(Nobody saw them for the first week of October.)
(When they did, they were all covered in scrapes, dents, and covered in soot from helm to stabilizing servos.)
(I caught the trio of mayhem traipsing about the base, trying and failing to escape suspicion of the others whilst whistling Yankee Doodle.)
(Ratchet stopped me and gave me the biggest candy bar I've ever seen in my life after he screamed at me about eating an apple, telling me the chocolate tasted better than my apple since it was unhealthy.)
(That drew the line for me and I went straight to Optimus and found him standing around in his office staring at the ceiling.)
(When asked, he told me everything in his office was super glued to the ceiling.)
(But then he found out about Ratchet's anti-nutritional glitch and helped me relocate him and a handful of others dancing around the rec room to Crazy Frog followed by an encore performance of Thriller with Wheeljack, Bumblebee, and Riley laughing their asses off at the spectacle.)
(Turns out they made microchips to temporarily reprogram an Autobot.)
(The trio's victims were totally aware of what was happening, but couldn't control themselves. Jazz, Whirlwind, and Bluestreak thought it was hysterical. The others, more specifically, Ironhide, Prowl, and Ratchet... not so much.)
(Optimus nearly locked them in the brig for the rest of the month but seeing as nobody was harmed, all they got was an hour long lecture mainly because Riley and Wheeljack were together unsupervised by a responsible mech to keep them out of trouble.)
Rule #86: If you have to get your scare on, do it in private.
(Riley and Ironhide.)
(Since it's close to Halloween, they figured they should get the whole base into the spirit of the upcoming holiday at the end of the month.)
(So they rounded up all Autobots willing to help, including both sets of the troublemaking twins and set to work.)
(Somehow nobody was caught doing anything while they set up.)
(When the base woke up that next morning, they found giant slimy webs on the walls and ceiling with dummies stuck to them with fake blood dripping out of openings in their chests.)
(Even Optimus was more than a little weirded out.)
(I caught a glimpse of evil grins on the troublemaking twins' faceplates as they and the other Autobots that were in on the prank as they wandered around subtly admired their handiwork while at the same time acting clueless.)
(Then the hissing sounds started up. It sounded like it was coming from everywhere and served to freak out the Autobots and NEST soldiers that didn't know about the prank even more.)
(I was well informed of what was coming and paid off to catch it all on camera. Even Ironhide decided to help record it while actually getting in the thick of it since Sunstreaker and Sideswipe enjoy pranking him so it would seem like he was getting punk'd too and nothing would seem out of the ordinary.)
(When the Xenomorphs made an appearance, there was mass chaos.)
(Red Alert had a panic attack and ran around the base wildly, sounding the Decepticon alarm and generally raising hell.)
(The Xenomorph holograms chased him all over the place and he ran straight into a wall when he looked over his shoulder to see if they were still chasing him.)
(He got back up but then he glitched when Riley stumbled in, begging him to help her before a Chestburster popped out of her chest.)
(Optimus, having somehow gotten away from all the mayhem, Googled what a Xenomorph is and discovered it was a mass prank.)
(Prowl, having come back online after he glitched during the prank, called out Riley for being the mastermind behind the prank and the Corvette twins. The only reason he called Riley out was for her love of using scare tactics on people for scraps and giggles.)
(In case you forgot about the whole "Prowl killed Annabelle" incident, refer to Rule #75.)
(All those involved in the prank had to clean it all up and hand out apologies to the people and Autobots that glitched and then serve a week in the brig.)
(From what I saw getting it on camera, it was worth it.)
Rule #87: Truth or Dare games are to be supervised.
(Leo happened to catch Bumblebee staring at Arcee.)
(He rounded up anybody willing to play and chose 'Bee as his first victim.)
(Bumblebee was dared to kiss Arcee and run away.)
(Riley, Flare Up, and Elita squealed in delight when they kissed.)
(She took a picture of the couple and disappeared for a while, resurfacing with magazines she created that she dubbed "Diego Garcia Weekly" and a picture of Bumblebee and Arcee was on the cover with bold screaming print proclaiming the two hottest new couple on base.)
(Riley even handed it out to the new recruits that arrived later that day, providing them with pictures of the Autobots and what they're like.)
(Everyone was cool with it, finding it very enlightening about how the 'Bots are, how they interact with each other, and who gets along with who.)
(The best article was for Ironhide, featuring a picture of him on the weapons range and the caption below it had everyone in stitches.)
("This is Ironhide. A mech whose idea of a romantic nightspot and impenetrable fortress is the same thing.")
Rule #88: The game of apple bobbing should not be played in front of the Autobots.
(Ratchet nearly offlined when he watched Epps dunk his head into a barrel with his hands tied behind his back.)
(He thought Epps was trying to drown himself for the entertainment of the other humans.)
(After some explaining, Ratchet finally let us continue our game.)
Rule #89: Hacking into the communications systems in the 'Con's base of operations and pranking them is in no way allowed.
(Riley!)
(Okay, Sideswipe and Sunstreaker and the Chevy twins were in on this, too.)
(They played preschool songs on a loop for a week.)
(Soundwave shut it off.)
(The next day, they did it again but used holograms from Riley's "Dumbest Ways To Die" video.)
(They altered it so the funny cartoon people are now Decepticons.)
(They stopped for a week before starting it up again, projecting holograms of Aliens and Predators and every human that died at their hands.)
(Hacking into security cameras showed more than a few Decepticons were freaked out.)
(Megatron and those of his army that didn't glitch over the Predators and Aliens actually marched to our base and demanded Optimus to get a hold of whoever it was that keeps hacking their base and pranking them.)
(A harsh reprimanding and a week in the brig for the three of them.)
Rule #90: Duct tape is not a prank tool.
(My sister and Sunny decided to pull a huge prank with duct tape.)
(It's come to my attention duct tape now comes in different colors and designs.)
(Apparently it always has been for some time.)
(Sunny made a canoe out of pink zebra patterned duct tape.)
(Riley used a wide assortment of patterns on hers and taped everything she could get her hands on.)
(She even taped a flower to Ironhide's Stetson hat and his ankle.)
(Prowl glitched when he found a huge assortment of toilet seats, flowers, and pictures of people in weird poses all over his office.)
(I've found duct tape with pictures on it. I now carry Despicable Me themed duct tape laden with Minions now.)
(It took me back to when Riley, Sunny, Darren, and I would watch the local small children in Ocean Heights.)
(Out of boredom, I started asking the kids what they wanted to be.)
(There was the typical responses: pilot, secret agent, doctor, a veterinarian, soldier...)
(But then a little girl in the group said, "I wanna be a Minion!")
(My initial response was a grin. "You. You're my favorite now. You've made my life complete!" XD)
