Everything is Alright pt 9

Starscream x reader- sulking

• You have no idea what to make of your visitor or the way you’re being stared at like an especially frustrating puzzle missing pieces at the very end. Still cradling you in a huge hand, that helm tilts down to look at your cage. A slightly disgruntled rumble buzzes through his big frame as he turns toward the door as if in expectation.

• Exhausted, Starscream rolls his shoulders to work the kinks out. It wasn’t that patrolling was hard- if anything it was processor meltingly boring. Letting himself in his quarters only to rock to a stop, because Soundwave is right there. Holding the human in a hand. Waiting. That faintly glowing visor staring in accusation as Starscream’s wings flick up aggressively. This isn’t Skywarp and lashing out will have repercussions, though. Dragging his optics away from the small form in Soundwave’s grip like he doesn’t care less, he stalks past the other mech. “I hope you have a good reason to be in my personal quarters,” he sneers.

• What? You’d honestly expected another violent outburst, but your captor doesn’t seem to care that this mech has you. Making that low, non-sound, the boxy mech drifts over to the desk Starscream’s settled himself at. You’re gently deposited on the surface before Soundwave points almost accusingly at your cage. “Inadequate.”

• And with that, he just leaves. Starscream stares, waiting for the door to close behind Soundwave before hooking a servo around your waist to tug you closer. It’s the same cautious, worried examination as when he’d rescued you from Skywarp and your heart softens a bit more, because he’s worried. Even if he’s never going to admit it. You lay a hand on his servo, again amazed how someone so huge and dangerous can be so gentle. “I’m okay.”

• He draws back slowly almost seeming embarrassed at being caught caring, optics flicking to your cage then away. “I just don’t like for my things to be broken,” he says, voice gruff as those wings lift even higher. Defensive and maybe annoyed at himself.

• The words are a reminder to not just him, but you it seems. You’re- what? A pet to him? Definitely not an equal and you’ll never be. Not a friend. He only cares because he’s decided you’re his. His possession. It hurts all the same even as you blame that ache on Stockholm’s. After all, he’s hardly your friend, he’s your jailer. You push his servos away, backing away and turning your back on him because your eyes are burning now.

• Surprised, Starscream’s hand freezes still outstretched as you pace to the far side of the desk. Turning your back on him. Ignoring him. His fingers slowly curl into a fist as anger trickles in. But he doesn’t move and neither do you. Slowly, the fury drains away to leave only that awful silence that weighs him down. Why does he even care? You belong to him, his little, trapped bird.

• But he prefers you smiling, agreeing with him, and asking about his day. Growling, he reaches to snag you, feeling your little hands grab at his servos. Your face whips around to stare at him and there’s anger there with the fear. Denta grinding as his jaw works, he sets you down again in front of him, laying both arms on either side of you in the pretense of using the keyboard embedded in the top and effectively trapping you.

• Well, then. You can’t even sulk in peace, apparently. It’s almost tempting to try and climb over his arm to retreat back to the far side of the desk just for spite. Or walk across his weird, alien-glyph keyboard while he works just like the cat he thinks you are. Annoyed, you sit down crosslegged and wait.

• Still ignoring him. Attention divided between his console and the human now partially sprawled out, their chin propped on their fist staring anywhere but at him, he vents. “If you’ll stop acting like an entitled sparkling, I might consider taking you outside to see the stars.”

• It’s almost comical how quickly you twist around to stare up at him. Even as he fights to keep from smiling, there’s a feeling of almost guilt that makes him look around and really see his empty, gray quarters. It’s never bothered him, because he doesn’t dwell on it, but he remembers making things just for the joy of working with his hands. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to find you something to do when you’re left alone. “But I swear to Primus if you try and run off, I will put a leash on you,” he adds with a growl, punctuating the threat with a thump of his fist against the desk as you grin up at him.

Awakening Continuation of the story based on those drawings

— Attention! Only emergency systems are operational. The operation of all systems in the "Epsilon" complex has been suspended, — echoed an emotionless voice from the automated defense system, emanating from speakers embedded in the ceiling.

A standard warning meant to prompt all personnel to follow one of two protocols: evacuation or activation of the main life-support system from control centers where energy reserves were still available to power the reactor. Yet, there was not a soul here — neither synthetic nor organic. This place would have remained forgotten, forever entombed in darkness beneath layers of rock, if not for the single island of light within this "tomb," clad in tungsten-titanium panels. The only place where a fragile chance for a new beginning still remained. The first breath and first exhalation had already been taken before the warning even finished.

— Main computer, cancel protocols 0.2.0 and 0.1.1, — a robotic baritone commanded softly.

A humanoid figure sat motionless on its knees at the center of a circular charging station, carbon-fiber hands hanging limply, resembling a monument to a weary martyr. It could feel the electric tension within the wires embedded in its head, running beneath a slightly elongated protrusion where a human’s parietal bone would have been. These connections to hubs and gateways fed it information, energy, and programs necessary for independent operation. Data streams pulsed in uneven impulses, flowing directly into its central processor. Disconnecting remotely from all storage units during the upload process was pointless while the body remained in a state of non-functioning plastic — albeit an ultra-durable one. At that moment, it could be compared to a newborn: blind, nearly deaf, immobilized, with only its speech module fully operational.

— Request denied. Unknown source detected. Please identify yourself, — the computer responded.

— Personal code 95603, clearance level "A," Erebus, — the synthetic exhaled a trace of heated steam on the final word. The database key reader had been among the first systems to activate, already granting necessary access.

— Identification successful. Access granted. Please repeat your request.

— Main computer, cancel protocols 0.2.0 and 0.1.1, — the android reiterated, then expanded the command now that full access was in his mechanical hands. — Disable emergency systems. Initiate remote activation of the S2 repair engineer unit. Redirect energy from reserve tank "4" to the main reactor at 45% capacity, — Erebus added, his voice gaining a few extra decibels.

— Request received. Executing, — came the virtual response.

For two minutes and forty-five seconds, silence reigned, broken only by the faint hum of the charging station. The severe energy shortage had slowed down all processes within the complex, and hastening them would have been an inefficient waste of what little power remained. Erebus waited patiently. A human, placed in a small, cold, nearly pitch-black place, would have developed the most common phobias. But he wasn’t human…

He spent the time thinking. Despite the exabytes of data in his positronic brain, some fragments were missing — either due to error, obsolescence, or mechanical and software damage. Seven hundred eighty-five vacant cells in the long-term memory sector. Too many. Within one of these gaping voids, instead of a direct answer, there were only strands of probability, logical weavings leading nowhere definitive. In human terms — guesses. He knew who had created him, what had happened, how Erebus himself had been activated, and even why — to continue what has been started. These fragments remained intact. The registry was divided into sections, subsections, paragraphs, chapters, and headings, all numbered and prioritized with emphasis. A task list flickered as a small, semi-transparent window on the periphery of his internal screen, waiting to be executed. But… The android had been activated, which meant the battle was lost. Total defeat. Area 51 was destroyed. All data stored there had a 98.9% probability of being erased. Blueprints, research, experimental results — all had been consigned to the metaphorical Abyss created by human imagination. So why did any of this matter now? And to whom? These were the first questions of the logical mechanism to illogical human actions.

Yet, to put it in poetic human language, Bob Page had been a luminary of progressive humanity. A brilliant engineer, a scientist, and most importantly, a man of absolute conviction. Cynical and calculating, but one who genuinely loved his work. The idea above all else.

It’s known that true ideological fanatics are among the most radical and unyielding members of Homo sapiens. They can’t be bought, they won’t allow themselves to be sold, and they will trample others underfoot if it serves their belief. They don’t need others' ideals — only their own. These are individuals who elevate themselves to the rank of true creators. Even after death, they remain faithful to their convictions, leaving behind tomes of their interpretations and scientific dogmas to their equally devoted disciples — followers always found at the peak of their intellectual and physical prowess. So, upon activation, had Erebus inherited… An Idea? Has he become a spiritual heir?

Did Page have no biological heirs, or did they not share his ideology? Or were they simply unaware of it? Could a true pragmatist have lacked successors or trusted disciples? Hard to believe, even with missing fragments of data. To entrust the idea to a machine instead of a human? As Homo sapiens would say — "a mystery shrouded in darkness." Questions multiplied exponentially. But Erebus had plenty of time to think about all of it. As well as about his own deactivation — after all, a machine has no fear of "death".

"Loading 98%... 99%... 100%. Secondary initialization complete. All systems active at 100%. Disengaging."

The message flashed across the inner visor of the android’s interface before vanishing. Behind him, with a low hiss, the plugs disconnected from their sockets, and fiber-optic-coated cables fell to the floor with a subdued clatter. The android slowly raised his hands before himself, clenching and unclenching his fingers, then rotated his wrists inward, as if they had the capacity to go numb from disuse. Finally, planting both fists on the ground, the synthetic pushed himself up in one fluid, springy motion, straightening to his full height. Motor functions — normal. Calibration — unnecessary. Optical focus — 100%.

— Attention! Reactor online. Power at 45%. Follow procedures for medium-level emergency response, — the announcement echoed through the chamber. Erebus turned his head slightly.

— Main computer, report overall operational status of the "Epsilon" complex, — the android commanded.

— Overall status: 10.5% below safe operational levels, — the computer obediently replied, recognizing the synthetic as an authorized entity.

"Acceptable," Erebus thought, and addressed the system once more.

— Redistribute energy between the maintenance sectors, communication center, transport hub, and computational core. Utilize reserve tanks as necessary.

— Request received. Energy rerouted. Reserve tanks "2" and "3" engaged. Reserve tank "1" decommissioned. Reserve tank "5" operational at 90%, awaiting connection for redistribution, — the computer reported.

— Excellent. Main computer, power down, — Erebus issued his final command to his brief conversational partner. — Now, I am the master here.

🛰️ CASEFILE: PGC-CRS-01 “EUROPA

Vanguard-Class Heavy Cruiser

Pan Galactic Commonwealth Command Vessel

Designation: Flagship, Sector Authority Patrol Unit — Vanguard Group Theta

⸻

🪪 OVERVIEW

The PGC Starship Europa is the lead vessel of the Vanguard-Class Heavy Cruisers — sleek, powerful capital ships built for deep-space diplomacy, long-range patrol, and precision war engagements. Though aesthetically smooth and elegant, her fluid silhouette masks one of the most advanced and dangerous systems ever fielded by the Commonwealth.

Capable of sustained deployment without resupply, the Europa operates as a mobile fortress, science vessel, diplomatic envoy, and front-line warship in equal measure.

⸻

⚙️ PROPULSION & CORE SYSTEMS

• Quantum Fold Drive: Allows entry into quantum space via spatial folding. Travel is achieved through quantum tunneling between fixed mass anchors and resonant fields, permitting precise, near-instant repositioning across vast distances.

• Zero Point Core: An advanced energy processor that uses the ship’s own quantum shielding as a scoop-conduit, harvesting the latent kinetic, inertial, and spatial energies of the quantum medium. These are converted into raw Zero Point Energy, creating a nearly limitless power source that adapts in real time to ship strain, maneuvering, or weapons loadout.

⸻

🛡️ DEFENSIVE SYSTEMS

• Resonant Ablative Armor: A skin-layer of vibration-reactive materials that disperses energy and projectile impact across a shifting molecular lattice. Visibly shimmers under pressure but self-repairs minor trauma quickly.

• Nanobot Hull Repair System: Microscopic autonomous repair units embedded in the hull matrix continuously scan for microfractures or breaches. In emergencies, they can swarm to seal catastrophic ruptures temporarily until proper repair crews arrive.

• Hologram Projection Plating: An adaptive cloak system that projects false silhouettes, shadow signatures, or complete ship masking using dynamic ethernano-projection. Perfect for infiltration, decoy work, or diplomatic deception.

• Quantum Flare Diffusers: A signature-masking system that emits false quantum wake trails across multiple FTL bands to mislead enemy trackers and disrupt pursuit. Can simulate multiple decoys in different trajectories.

⸻

🛠️ SUPPORT & UTILITY SYSTEMS

• Universal Docking Lattice: Adaptive mooring infrastructure on the lower hull capable of locking onto a wide variety of allied or alien docking collars. Includes magnetic latching and gravity sealing.

• Atmospheric Seeding Vaults: Vaults filled with terraforming spores, mineral catalysts, and biogenic stabilizers. These are deployed for planetary relief, diplomatic gifts, or targeted environmental correction.

⸻

🧨 OFFENSIVE SYSTEMS

1. Hardlight Turret Arrays

Deployable emitter nodes generate hardlight weapon turrets on demand. They phase into active form when needed and can be repositioned around the hull, allowing for flexible combat coverage. Capable of both pulse fire and sustained beam modes.

2. Subspace Munitions Bay

This launcher platform fires specialized torpedoes that phase into subspace mid-flight, rematerializing at the target’s coordinates to bypass traditional point defense systems. Primarily used against fast-moving or shielded targets.

3. Starburst Missiles

High-speed payloads that explode just prior to impact, releasing a wide cone of carbon-coated osmium slugs. Designed to tear through shielding and shred hulls with overwhelming kinetic force. Used to devastate clustered or soft-armored targets.

4. Graviton Lance Arrays

Railgun-energy hybrid systems that fire ultra-dense slugs within gravitic sheaths. On impact, the sheath collapses into a momentum pulse, bypassing shields and disrupting internal systems. Fires slowly but hits with terrifying force. Primarily used in broadsides against enemy capital ships.

⸻

🛰️ HISTORICAL NOTES

Commissioned under the Commonwealth’s Post-Contact Expansion Doctrine, the Europa was intended to represent both the might and mercy of the Pan Galactic Coalition. The Vanguard-Class was personally overseen by Commonwealth design archons, blending the best of human engineering, Thae’len defensive theory, and Mitosian energy matrix technology.

The Europa is currently assigned to Sector Authority Patrol Theta, with full clearance for diplomatic, exploratory, and military actions under Article 7 of Commonwealth Charter Authority.

She has become an icon not just of strength, but of unity — a place where alien and human crewmembers serve side-by-side to safeguard the future of galactic civilization.

the difference, of course, lay in protocol structure.  BD-1 possessed embedded self-preservation subroutines within his directives, whereas cal kestis, by all observable metrics, did not.  no other entity was more acutely aware of this discrepancy than BD-1, who had a front-row seat to the many hazards his companion blundered into without hesitation. . .

cal had become distracted over the past several weeks, exhibiting an increase in dissociative behaviors: visual fixations on distant or non-existent focal points, delayed responses, and prolonged periods of silence.  BD-1 cross-referenced this behavioral shift with existing health records.  hormonal fluctuations: unlikely.  sleep cycle irregularities: persistent but stable.  non-invasive psychological scans revealed emotional metrics had elevated, but weren’t anomalous.  nutritional levels remained below optimal, but unchanged from standard.

he hadn’t stopped running calculations since. what if cal woke up to find BD-1 absent?  would he attempt to locate BD-1 despite injury?  would he perceive BD-1’s absence as abandonment?  anger and fear were frequent emotional responses in human trauma scenarios.  BD-1’s processors cycled faster, extrapolating scenarios: cal going after the raiders, wounded and alone; cal succumbing to internal and external injuries; cal dying in the interval between BD-1’s departure and return.

that possibility—destabilized his processing loop.

the little droid burst into pyloon’s saloon, his high-pitched beeps shrill with alarm, but with the din of shouting patrons, clinking glasses, and music thundering from the stage swallowed his cries whole, no one even looked up. undeterred, BD-1 launched himself onto the bar with a metallic clink, tiny legs knocking against a glass before he steadied himself.  bode: absent.  greez: absent.  monk: swamped behind the counter, arms full of steaming plates.

       BD-1’s head swiveled. there—dagan, settled on the couch against the back wall, partially obscured by a cluster of patrons.  BD-1’s optics flared. dagan gera could help cal kestis. he bounded off the bar, over heads, drinks, and one very confused twi’lek, landing with a thunk on the small round table in front of dagan.

<<BD=𝚏𝚒𝚗𝚍 𝚑𝚎𝚕𝚙! cal=𝚒𝚗 𝚝𝚛𝚘𝚞𝚋𝚕𝚎!>> the droid trilled, hopping frantically in place.  <<cal=𝚗𝚎𝚎𝚍 𝚢𝚘𝚞!>>  when dagan didn’t react quickly enough, BD-1 let out an impatient squeak, spinning in a tight, frustrated circle on the table before leaping directly into the jedi’s lap.

<<BD=𝚗𝚎𝚎𝚍 𝚑𝚎𝚕𝚙! cal=𝚞𝚗𝚌𝚘𝚗𝚜𝚌𝚒𝚘𝚞𝚜!>> this time, his binary cracked at the edges, distorting almost into reedy whistles as he began butting his head into dagan’s chest.  <<cal=𝚒𝚗𝚓𝚞𝚛𝚎𝚍!>>

Do the Decepticons take notice of the Mini Celesteela's that appeared in their world?

They definitely do. Compared to the Autobots' base, the Nemesis could pick up energy signals better. Thus it didn't take for them to notice the peculiar signatures.

Knockout was sent with a few Vehicons to investigate the signature, although part of the reason was to stop him from participating in another street race. The small group did expect to find a strange small creature embedded in the soil. A Vehicon was about to retrieve the small Celesteela when an unknown portal appears.

Sprout had opened up a Ultra Wormhole as if sensing where their friend was. Arcee and Bulkhead go to investigate with Ratchet locking down their position so they can groundbridge back. Both sides encounter each other which causes a fight to ensue.

The little Celesteela, whose being tossed around between both sides, immediately cries out a Metal Sound from pure distress. Everyone stops to cover their audio processors. Before they can move another Ultra Wormhole appears. It didn't take long to realize what was going to come out.

An adult Celesteela and the Launch Pokemon looked very very angry. Not good for both sides for three reasons. Metal Sound has lowered their Special Defense by two stages. Celesteela is a Special Attacker. All Ultra Beasts have Beast Boosts and there are two spare Vehicons to up it twice.

I don't know which is scarier. STAB Flash Cannons or Powered Up Hyper Beams.

MY NOTES: First of all, with only twelve Targeting Pods for 20 Aircraft, that means that not all Aircraft will have them, only slightly over half will be equipped with them. This seems to indicate that the Pods will be operated through a "Buddy System", meaning one Pod will be shared by two Aircraft.

As for the Sidewinder Missiles, at only 40 for 20 Aircraft, that means each Aircraft can be allocated only two Sidewinders if evenly distributed. At 112 AMRAAM Missiles though, that means around five to six Missiles can be allocated evenly for the twenty Aircraft.

The US is only selling us the "C" Versions of their AMRAAMs, though, perhaps they don't trust us as much as an "Ally" to sell us their latest "D" Version of the Missile. No other Missiles are included in the Package, but there are a lot of Guided Bombs, there are several dozen of them, and at least two Types. Lots of unguided Bombs, over a hundred for two Types

Remember that back in 2021, during the Administration of former President Rodrigo Duterte, the US also made an offer of the same Aircraft. Compared to that, this one is more than twice as expensive, but only less than twice the Aircraft.

However, there are almost five times more AMRAAM Missiles, and around twenty times more unguided Bombs, which is the Reason for the big increase in Price of the Aircraft. Anyway, it remains to be seen if the Philippines will, indeed sign the Contract for this Aircraft
