14 - [Video] / Action for Goldenrod

[show_my_cannons]

[The 'gear clicks on to show a little Corgi-like Growlithe bouncing around, with an Eletrike. Part of the view is hidden behind a pair of booted feet.]

[They're rolling across a lawn, barking and chasing each other. Honestly, it looks like they're having the BEST TIME EVER. At some point, Dog pounces on Rascal, and the two go rolling into some bushes. Almost immediately, Dog is darting back out again, followed closely by Rascal. The two proceed to continue this merry chase all over the lawn, until Dog runs behind the feet.]

[Her nose fills the screen.]

... This is not what I meant by training the canines.

[Apparently those feet belong to Ironhide, and, as usual, he does not sound all that pleased with his Pokemon's antics.]

[The feed clicks off, only to resume a moment later, with the old 'bot's face filling the screen instead of two frolicking puppies.]

Everyone calmed down after that... Halloween... thing? Or are you all still crazed?

Well, as the humans say- [ he claps a hand on Ironhide's shoulder ] Come hell or high water, you're stuck with me, old man.

[He looks a little confused.]

What does that mean? We supposed to be swimming, here?

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

It means "no matter what happens". Don't be so literal.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

I can be if I want to.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

It gets old having to explain everything to you all the time.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

You will survive, I think.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

But it's so much work.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

You could use the workout.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

I work out plenty, thanks.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

Maybe you could stand to do a little more.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

... Is that so?

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

Yeah. It is so.

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

[ Is it a bad idea to put Ironhide in a headlock? Probably, but Cliff's going to try it anyway. ]

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[Yes, yes it is. Because he's going to grab for Cliff's arms, to hold them back.]

[ action ]

[getthehorns]

[ ... DAMMIT :| ] Just making sure you were payin' attention.

[ action ]

[show_my_cannons]

[SHOVE :|]

When am I not?
