One of the best things to do in Autobase is, of course, explore. Particularly in places you're not entirely sure you're allowed in.

"What's through here... oh, cool!" It's a vehicle bay, capacious as everything in Autobase, housing mostly Jeeps with the occasional Humvee.

Nnnnngh. "Yessir! Right away, sir." Enzo crab-scrabbles backwards until his hands feel the edge of the roof; he hesitates for a moment, then swings his legs around and climbs down, not taking his eyes off the Autobot until the Humvee blocks him from view.

And Dani's right behind him, only she's trying not to look at Ironside as she climbs down from the Humvee.

[a1enzo]

Once he's behind the vehicle, he does wish he could just hide there, but it's out of the question.

As they head for the exit, he pauses and looks back at Ironhide. "Please don't tell anyone?" he blurts.

It's unlikely to get back to Danny regardless, but Dot's another story.

"I may have to report it to Optimus," says Ironhide. "Beyond that I doubt it's anyone else's business."

[a1enzo]

Enzo sags with relief. Optimus, he figures, is okay. Optimus can be discreet. He'll probably chuckle in an avuncular manner.

He might stick them in the brig for a few hours, but that's infinitely better than a sisterly lecture.

"Yessir. Thanks," he says, and flees the premises with Dani.

"Oh, man," he pants when they're clear.

"This so doesn't get back to Danny," Dani says between pants.

[a1enzo]

Enzo shakes his head as he catches his breath. "No more making out in restricted sectors," he vows.

[ami_imperfect]

She looks over at Enzo with a somewhat worried expression. "We're gonna get in trouble, aren't we?"

[a1enzo]

"Oh, yeah. Prob'ly not too bad if Optimus's the one punishing us, but..." He grimaces. "I just hope he doesn't tell Dot. Rather be thrown in the brig."

He gives her a weak smile. "Sorry. It was real nice while it lasted, though..."

[ami_imperfect]

"Yeah, it was," she agrees.

[a1enzo]

The smile grows into a smirk. "I'm kinda hungry for raspberries now."

[ami_imperfect]

"Very funny." So Dani does the mature thing and sticks her tongue out at him.

[a1enzo]

"No, I mean it! Weird, huh?"

[ami_imperfect]

"Yeah, I guess." She grins.

[a1enzo]

"Think we've got time to get to the mess hall before they come to take us away?"

[ami_imperfect]

"Hope so."

[a1enzo]

"Least we won't waste away." He grins wickedly. "You get skeletons in dungeons, you know."

[ami_imperfect]

"We won't wind up in a dungeon, we're gonna wind up in the brig," Dani retorts, exasperated. "There are no skeletons in the brig."

Unlike dungeons, brigs get regularly cleaned and maintained.

[a1enzo]

"Yeah, I guess not. No giant spiders, either."
