[Open] We're Going to Learn Some Human Things
WHO: Tailgate, Fulcrum, and anyone else!
WHERE: Around town and maybe the library
WHEN: Friday and Sunday
WHAT: Tailgate does things with other people
WARNINGS: Energy drinks
[Tailgate's place | Friday | Locked to Fulcrum]
It's Tailgate's turn now to wait for Fulcrum to come pick him up. He had totally been looking forward to this all week, and even bought a pretty long piece of blue clothing just for the occasion. Organics called it a dress, and he liked it a lot! It even seemed to be made with his human shape in mind, how convenient! He made sure to wash and comb his hair, and even figured out how to put it up and use a hair elastic. That took way longer than he expected it to.
He had just finished tugging everything into place when someone knocked on his door. "Coming!" He shouted, bounding through the living room and gracelessly yanking it open. "Hello! Hi! It's good to see you!"
[Library | Sunday | Open to all]
If asked, Tailgate might admit that he didn't actually know how to use the library. It was so different from the Cybertronian one he visited once in his lifetime. It took no time at all to become lost. But during his journey, he managed to find exactly what he was looking for: A book on the human anatomy. It was big and full of words he didn't understand, and it probably weighed more than his little organic body did.
Tailgate can be found sitting at a table with an intense look scrawled on his face. Open before him was a basic diagram of the human digestive system. None of it made any sense to him, but good golly is he going to try. Next to him there's a stack of books that include: An Overview of World History, Worldwide Desserts, Green Eggs and Ham, Palmistry, and The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation.
Next to him seemed to be a large can of some kind of energy drink. That might explain why he's vibrating slightly.

He finally decides to stop yanking Fulcrum around, and instead loops his arm through his, like he's seen human couples in the park do. It's not weird is it? They ARE on a date, so it must be okay! One day he'll read up on all these social rules humans have.
"I was thinking of something silly. Like a comedy or something! What do you think?"

"Sure! It'd be nice to see something that isn't a documentary for once." Fulcrum grins sheepishly. "After the movie, we can get food and ice cream. I was kinda hoping I could spend time getting to know you a bit more, if you don't mind."
Tailgate's life does sound infinitely more interesting than his own.

They leave the apartment and walk down the street; Tailgate's head swivels around as he admires his surroundings. Humans are just so cool! Look at their funny little buildings! And their plants and all their other stuff!
"I love Earth so far. It's been really nice here! I should get an Earth alt-mode or something."

Fulcrum smiles as he watches Tailgate excitedly observe the area around him. Just like that, Tailgate is energized by his environment. It's incredibly endearing.
"Heh, I wish I could do that. Even if I could figure out how to go into my real body, that'd be impossible for me. What kind of Earth-mode would you pick?"
