It was Ratchet who saw the advertisement first. He often read the human online newspaper, though, had he told anyone other than Wheeljack, they most likely wouldn't have believed him.
But he did. And when he saw the very obviously Cybertronian cityscape spread across the front page with the title "Art Show Comes to Town: Anonymous Benefactor Donates Multiple Pieces," he stormed ingot he Rec Room, datapad in hand. He was immediately the center of attention.
"What's this?" he snarled as he slapped the pad down in front of Sunstreaker. Sideswipe snickered as the yellow Twin shot Ratchet a dry look.
"It looks like Praxus to me. What do you think, Sides?"
"Yup. Looks like Praxus. See, you can see the Helix Gardens in the corner over there," he said, gesturing vaguely to the edge of the cityscape.
Ratchet growled lowly. "Why is it on the front page of a human newspaper?"
Sunstreaker raised an optic ridge and took his time answering, taking a long drink of his energon. After letting the medic stew for a moment, he smiled. "Because I donated it to the Art Show. Sides convinced me, with a little help from Prowl. He said something about human-Autobot relations, but to tell you the truth, I kinda tuned him out."
"Yet it's anonymous."
Sunstreaker shrugged. "If you know anything at all about us, it's pretty obviously Cybertron. And anyways, it should say something about it being from one of us. Keep reading."
Ratchet growled as he picked up the pad and fell into the open seat next to Sideswipe. "Fine. You're still an aft."
The yellow frontliner shrugged, a small smile twitching at his lips. "Whatever."
