"How long" indeed. Maybe even "why?" Though, Smokescreen was not likely to get those answers any time soon.

For the sake of the game, Soundwave graciously ignored whatever grandiose confidence Smokescreen decided to inflate his ego with. For now, it would be fine for him to think he was a 'favourite' or (it shutters) 'awesome'.

Though, Soundwave had a feeling that Smokescreen was playing his own game. Which only made its own that more exciting. There is nothing better than the chase and the subsequent submission.

As soon as Smokescreen sent his coordinates, a groundbridge appeared. The bridge itself lead to a fairly secluded part of the Nemesis; a mostly unused hangar. There were a few bits of machinery scattered around, while Soundwave stood in the center and leaned on a central terminal.

.: Welcome aboard the Nemesis, Smokescreen. :.

Inside the box is a simple collar laid flat. It is made of a deep red, high quality leather. The metal hoops, nails and latch are made of gold. The contrast is striking, worthy of such a bot it is gifted to.

On the inside of the lid is a simple hand written " ;) " and the Decepticon symbol.

And Smokescreen is staring, hard, at the collar. It is pretty, but also... The Decepticon symbol has him frowning, looking around for the culprit. Though, with the winky face, he can make a guess. There's only one Decepticon that uses emojis...

.: Not normal. Reserved for special cases. :.

This one came along with no hidden context; as if whatever game Soundwave is playing will be left up to Smokescreen to decipher.

.: Appreciation: Noted. Suggestion: Share coordinates. Will bridge Smokescreen to meet his generous benefactor. After all... :.

Soundwave couldn't help its hidden smirk as it traced over a matching piece of leather.

.: Collar: Is only half of the prize. :.

.: Under the impression Smokescreen experienced a change of spark. :.

The message came through after a moment. It was soon followed by another.

.: Was preparing to welcome him with open servos, if that were the case. :.

While the messages themselves spoke of a consummate professional, their subglyphs told a...different story. Subtle mischevious strokes, placements that spoke of further motivations. Of course, using subglyphs at all was rarely heard of- at least for Soundwave.

It much preferred to allow inferences to be made on their own, and then simply manipulate them afterwards. But, no, these messages were clear: Soundwave was up to something, and it wanted Smokescreen to know that.

Hm... It's.

Concerned.

[silenceofthewave]

Hey Soundwave. You should just drop out of the con ranks and become a DJ. IJS your sets at the roborave were lit. 🔥

While the thought had crossed its mind several times, there was one teensy eensy little problem...

Soundwave cared far too much about the Cause and its success to leave. It was dedicated to the Decepticons and Megatron's vision. To want anything beyond victory would be selfish.

[silenceofthewave]

It's absolutely swamped with work. For once, it would rather be doing literally anything else. Yet, the Cause does not stop moving just because Soundwave wishes it to.

hello. it is @soundop-central

i want u to know that we are mutuals in my heart. soundop-central is connected to an rp blog and i try to keep my dash MOSTLY clear bc of that.

whenever i see u in my notifs i get a big smile on my face cause its like omg hey!! thats!! thats my guy!! thats my homie!!

n e wayz....i was wondering if i mayhaps could request (you guessed it) megasound. continuity doesnt matter. 🥺👉🏻👈🏻 they are my roman empire

I'm so happy to hear that!!! You don't realise how much it means. I was actually wondering if I can consider u a mutual since you are one of a few blogs I follow regularly. So so glad to know u feel similar. Also that u like my stuff. I'm so flattered

And I got you. We got;

Earthspark because people don't appreciate it enough

And my AU because they're silly and I wanted to draw them.

I'm so sorry it took so long. I was struggling with art block. Kinda lucky considering that strugle gave me enough time to get to steal a graphic tablet from my friend today. I rarely get to use it, so, sorry there's no proper lineart.

Soundwave jerks its chin forward, accepting the challenge. After a brief moment of uninterrupted staring, it raised a servo and flicked Smokescreen right on the forehead. The flick landed with a solid kthonk! and it couldn't help the sliver of pleased amusement that poked through its otherwise impassive field.

" Smokescreen- No thoughts. Head empty. "

Soundwave bunts its helm against Smokescreen's for only a nanoklik before immediately pulling away and acting like nothing happened.

Wait. What just happened? Did Soundwave just... Headbutt him? Did he imagine it?

He can't help but stare at Soundwave, debating something quietly (for once), before stepping close, and trying to headbutt Soundwave's arm. Revenge.

[silenceofthewave]

Head bunt. Head butting is a completely different thing. Smokescreen would probably end up with a few puncture wounds, given how pointy Soundwave's chevrons are.

Either way, Soundwave couldn't help the jerk away as soon as Smokescreen made contact with its plating. Habit; unfamiliar sensations were often dangerous in this line of work. After a moment of staring, Soundwave relaxed back into its original position. Though, it was still staring at him.
