[Wheeljack tries for a smile and fails] I would leave him with my lord, but... [There is that expression again, uncertain and unhappy, both at what Antlers may do, but also at how close he is coming at admitting to Donnie that he hadn't told his lord where he is going, or told anybody else at all] He has had... a complicated relationship with minicons, and Windshear in particular prefers your company.

[He then waves a hand dismissively, though that same concerned expression gives him away. He never had been particularly good at disguising his thoughts]

I will be leaving soon, several days from now. I have been assured that by then, the sling around my doorwing will be removed, as my systems will have had the opportunity to effect internal repairs. I must simply, ah. Be careful. And I intend to. I remember your scolding from last time.

[Wheeljack eases his tense posture a bit at the confirmation that Windshear can stay, though he is now wearing an expression that's half puzzled, half guilty]

Thank you, I- What? [He cycles his optics, almost giving an uncertain laugh at what is being said] I, ah... I promise to do my best? Although if I am needed, I would be unable to make any such promise. I will not shame myself or my friends again by being useless. [This last part comes out 'ore stiffly, and he shakes his head before continuing]

And, ah... We are going to be visiting a planet called Azure, for reasons it isn't my place to elaborate on. If all goes well, it should only be three days or so, I believe.

That said, I hope you will be careful, as well. Earthlings make wishes or promises over sweets, yes? I have some energon candy left over from the medibay that I was actually able to consume, if you'll believe it, is that close enough?

Wheeljack looked away for a moment with replying. When he looked back he opened his mouth, then closed it. When he spoke again it was uncertainly. "Ah. It was in one of the films I watched with Hashtag once, humans lit the thing on fire and made a promise. Did they invent that for the film?"

"In any case, it doesn't matter. I expect an equal effort to come back from both of us, wish or not. I shall be very disappointed if either one of us-" A pause and a firm shake of his head. "We'll be fine. You aren't going alone, correct? You will have your brothers and-" He paused again, with a slight frown. He'd heard that name before, or saw it somewhere, but the last few days were enough of a blur that it was hard to remember details like that. "And your friend. That will be more than enough."

[Wheeljack shrugged noncommittally, but he was even more curious about organic traditions, now. He almost asked what a practical belief in widhmaking would look like, before deciding to focus on other questions, instead. His optics brightened, then dimmed]

How protective is overprotective? You and Ratchet have said things that I would argue are protective, but where is the limit?
