Forever Open Optimus RP Post
Open Optimus RP post Hey, I don't really play Optimus in any games at the moment, but that doesn't mean I want to stop playing him! So bring your characters, give me a situation, and I'll be happy to roleplay the big guy with you! | |
YES GOOD
Cleansing in a way.
As he approaches for his late night walk, he notices Cyclonus, pausing a moment. This one...while bearing the red badge of Decepticons in the form of optic colour, seemed to be anything but. He'd started to notice that when Cyclonus showed fondness for Tailgate. And without a badge showing his faction, it was even more decisive.
Cyclonus was not what he seemed on the surface.
It's a soft approach, to be sure. Almost amazing how the sand silences those heavy footsteps, as he makes his way towards him.]
It seems as if we had similar intentions tonight.
[His voice isn't accusing. In fact, it's got a hint of amusement as the larger bot makes his way beside him.]

He chances a look over his shoulder at the sound of a voice, only visibly startled in the way his hands tighten almost into fists and the increasing rigidity of his posture. Once he actually notices who has joined him, though, he relaxed back to his default position. This... Optimus. He had heard whispers about the Optimus from his universe, but had nothing tangible to go on. Now that he had met a version... he wasn't sure what to think.]
So it would seem.
[Said more musing than cold, almost matching the mild amusement in Optimus' voice.]

But Cyclonus had pulled through. Despite his alliance to no one, he'd given Optimus a chance, and thus, earned his trust, although not his allegiance.
He didn't mind the latter. The former was more important.]
I come here to collect my thoughts. It is one of the few areas in this city that seems to be silent at all hours of the day.
[His eyes slightly glance towards the bot, focusing on him.]
Peacful.

Autobots or Decepticons -- the single-minded, 'one or the other' mindset is more than a bit infuriating, especially since he knows there was a third side. After all, he was part of it.
But perhaps he can forgive Optimus' team here, if only a little. After all, from what he's gleaned, they're still in a war.
Cyclonus frowns a bit, taking a small step back as the tide comes in a bit further and comes dangerously close to touching him. "I could do without the sand."
no subject
And...that's all he has to say about it. Maybe he'd become jaded over the years, knowing just how awful the silence could be if you didn't want it. To know just how loud quiet could be.
But he sees where Cyclonus is coming from, his head turning to look from the water to him. His brows are as furrowed as ever, but behind that, two blue optics shine. Like stars.
And they begin to twinkle when he mentions the sand, casting those eyes down to their feet.
"Not the most accommodating of landscapes. But it is all what you sacrifice for something much greater."
no subject
"Perhaps you're right. I have to admit, I've not been exposed to places like these very often."
Whereas Optimus' gaze turns to the ground, Cyclonus' turns up to the sky, regarding it with a mild curiosity. After a moment, he does a rather abrupt change of subject.
"I must admit, I wasn't sure what to expect from you."
