If Farlane knew who Mr. Magoo was, he’d find that comment terribly silly. “No, no! Ultra Magnus!” he laughs instead. “I jus’ keep callin’ him that. Nicknames are a hard habit t’ break.”
He pretty much has the same reaction Nightbeat has to her telling him what she’d been doing. The pink car was generally pretty good at picking up bits of languages all over the place, but Junkion speak still sailed over his head a lot. He probably should have taken those Earthling Culture meetings a bit more seriously before leaving the Autobots come to think of it.
“Well, rhyme or not, s’ a pleasure, miss,” Farlane smiles and takes a proper sip from his cube. “If I knew I’d get to meet a whole bunch a’ new and interestin’ people, I’d a’ given this universe hoppin’ thing a twirl waaay earlier.”

"Ah, tall, pale, and handsome!" She nods along with Farlane's comment that nicknames are a hard habit to break. Doesn't she know it!
Someday, someone will listen to what Pee-Dee has to say and ask her about the whole 'stuck in a cell' thing. She's not holding out hope, though.
"Go to strange new places, meet interesting new people, and- okay, not kill them." Pee-Dee grins. "I like this universe. It's way better than back home. The rules mostly stay the same."

Look who's up and about! Guzzle walks into the room, a thunderstorm practically hovering over his head. Well, if thunderstorms looked like pretty blue ribbons. He walks in the direction of Pee-Dee and Farlane's table, squints his optics into blue slits, and...
"Mornin'."
...Grunts in greeting at them before proceeding to the energon dispenser. He might not even be aware that his cannon won first prize!

“Gotta agree with you on that,” the pink car nods. “So far anyways. I think I need a few more decades t’ reach a more concrete conclusion ‘bout this place.” Aaaaand then Guzzle walks in and he puts on his poker face.
“Yo, Guzzle,” Farlane greets cheerfully after a moment, raising his cube. He casts Pee-Dee a highly amused sidelong grin before putting on a more neutral expression. Let’s play ‘see how long the guy takes to notice while we act like everything is perfectly normal’?
“Good bout o’ defraggin’, my man?” he asks before drinking from his cube.

"Decades? Why so long?" Pee-Dee's optics flash in a blink. Taking even one decade to come to a concrete conclusion, much less several? Cybertronians are so weird.
"Aloha, Guzzle." She lifts her cube in the minibot's general direction.

Hopefully Farlane has a good pokerface, because that ribbon is bouncing with every step the tank takes. It even has a bit trailing after it, how adorable!
Not that it rubs off on Guzzle though. He casts a glare at Farlane's question before watching his cube fill up. "No." Guzzle grunts out, for what feels like has to be the thousandth time. He never, ever sleeps well.

Farlane has the best poker face. What? He totally doesn’t look like he’s about to break into gales of laughter. Don’t be silly.
“Aww, darlin’,” Farlane says with genuine sympathy. The playfully sly smile quickly replaces that in a moment though. “I could help ya sleep reeeaaaal well if you want me to though.” Followed with a wink and flirty flick of his door wings.

Pee-Dee tilts her head slightly. "Why not, Guzzle? You don't like the way Darth Vader is staring at you?1"

Kup enters the lounge, datapad in hand, as he goes through the roving security watch checks. Without even looking up from the tablet, he greets the others with, "Mornin'."
He heads, first, to the camera nearest the lounge entrance. He opens the panel beneath it to check the settings, then scowls and reaches in to touch a bit of damage. "Blasted crickets," he grumbles.
As he begins making notations on the tablet as to the damage, he asks, louder, but still not looking up, "So Guzzle, what's with the... festive decor?" While he's not actually looking up, still, the smirk is unmistakable.

To Farlane's generous offer, he has the same answer he has given the pink car before about similar offers: "No." One of these days, he's going to say yes just to mess with his head. Then again, Guzzle would probably regret it after five seconds.
He doesn't blink or squint at the Junkion. He's getting used to her weird way of speaking. "Yeah, sure, whatever." But it's Kup who takes him by surprise. He lowers his cube and turns to face the older bot with a bewildered look in his eyes. "What?"

Farlane pouts like he always does when he gets Guzzle’s negative answer. And if Guzzle ever answered yes, it’s probably not Farlane who’s going to get his mind messed with! In a good way even!
“Hey, Kup!” he chirps. And then it’s a battle to keep the grin from splitting his face plates at look on Guzzle’s face when the old mech mentions Pee-Dee’s decor.

"Morning, Gibbs," Pee-Dee calls as Kup wanders into the room.
Guzzle's dismissive response causes her optics to flick dimmer. She's used to people at least making an effort when she tries to talk to them. On the other hand, blue ribbon.
She drains her cube to hide her smile.

Kup doesn't even ask who Gibbs is. Apparently, today it's him. Since he was the one who greeted them first, he doesn't have to return any greetings, but he does glance up to give Guzzle a slight nod, smirk getting more apparent. He nods towards the ribbons bouncing above the tank's head.
"Ain't you noticed? Apparently, you won first prize."

By now Guzzle gets the feeling that something weird is going on. When Kup looks up he follows his gaze, only for his helmet to bump into his armor, making him unable to look all the way up and see his cannon, or what had been done to it. "I don't see nothin'-" Then, he sends an accusing glare at Farlane. "Slaggit Farlane, did you do somethin' again!?"

“Meeeee?” Farlane says, a hand on his chest and wearing the most innocent expression on his face, ever. “What could I have possibly done?” Really, Guzzle, you wound him with this utterly baseless accusation!
It’s hard to keep a straight face when the minibot was being so adorable though!
