[ on screen there's a sleeping brittany pointer pup resting on what looks like is a nice, steely grey surface. probably because that would be Bumblebee's leg. poor Rex looks kind of small in comparison, especially since there's a big robot finger petting the sleeping puppy. ]

Finally! Little guy really doesn't know how to not be a little ball of energy. I don't know what Thundercracker was thinking when he decided he wanted him, but I've been taking care of Rex here since the big guy up and left.

[ actually, Thundercracker and the pup are really funny to watch, not that Bumblebee is going to say that. instead Rex just yawns and aww. isn't that a little heart warming. ]

...It's not really that bad.

[ so yeah. it really hasn't been that much of a chore. just exhausting. ]

So what kind of tricks should I teach him? ...Any tips on how I can wear him out faster would be nice too, I guess.

It's nice of you to take him in.

Honestly I didn't think leaving the poor guy to fend for himself was even an option. Maybe I could have taken him to someone else, but I don't know. That didn't feel right either.

I think most imPort owned pets get shuffled around. People coming, people going.

[ It is unfortunate for creatures that can't fend for themselves. ]

I figured... Makes me feel a little sorry for 'em.

Careful or you might end up with more than one animal in the house.

[ a laugh. ]

Maybe I should invest in a new home. Become one of those hermits that hoards animals.

[gevurah]

You might end up having CDC over.

[taselikeabee]

That's an acronym I don't know. What's it stand for?

[gevurah]

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

I assume someone from the animal division would drop by if there were too many animals.

audio

[taselikeabee]

Yeah... Let's not do that.

[ Teasing: ]

Keep the house and yard clean.

audio

[taselikeabee]

Oh no. I don't think I can be that domestic.

[gevurah]

You'll find you'll have no choice with a dog.

[ had been just kidding anyway. he's finding the shift from constantly being on his toes about Cybertron and trying to fix things to a lifestyle like this... nice. it's just plain nice. ]

Maybe I'm seeing the appeal.

Good luck with the puppy.
