Sure thing gimme like 45 min

[Duo comes rolling up to the drive-in just after sunset, parking his bike somewhere off to the side where it won't block other patrons. Riptide, obviously, won't be hard to find.]

Hey buddy! Ready for some good ol' fashioned garbage horror-action double-feature?

You know I am!

[he's standing. like, right near the road where cars pull in? riptide doesn't seem to care that he's pretty much in the way. he bends down, holding a hand out for duo.]

C'mon.

[Eeeehhhh it's okay, they're about to go find a better spot to pop down anyway. Without even blinking, Duo hops up into Riptide's hand. It's almost like he's... used to this....]

One of 'em is called 'The Priest'. Oh boy, I can't wait to see what kinda pseudo-Catholic occultist garbage this is! I'll fill you in on all the dumb human cultural stuff going on.

How about that spot in the field up by the screen?

I understood none of that, [he says, carefully lifting duo up to deposit him while he shifts.] You got it. Don't touch the white gear on my shoulder while I'm moving, or you'll lose an arm. Here we go--

Exactly. [Duo puffs, instead clambering up onto the pointy boat bit sticking up from his shoulder.] This should stay stationary, right? Nice pauldron. My partner's got barbed ones like this.

[It's a great view from the top, too! Duo clings on fairly easily as Riptide stomps on over to the best viewing spot; the ads are still playing on the big screen in front of them when they plop down. Duo turns to glance out over the distance at the other cars are bikes parked around them.] I guess folks still come to these things after all...

Thanks. My shoulders never get stuck when I transform.

[still got that bum t-cog, huh? riptide's careful as he moves, at least, making sure he doesn't create earthquakes just by moving and sits down carefully. despite the inelegance, he's clearly used to moving around smaller spaces like this.]

Yeahhh, I mean, also I'm here? I'm super famous. That'll probably make more people show up.

Probably a good thing, huh. That's right, you guys can all do that, huh? My partner can't do anything neat like that, but my buddy's can. He's-- what'd Screamer call it... A 'Seeker'? Turns into an aircraft.

[Good thing Duo brought snacks. He pulls his little backpack off and takes out a bag of popcorn.] Famous... TV show, right? I heard about it. These jerks've barely achieved space travel and they waste it on that?

[Duo shakes his head, popping a few kernels into his face.] At least it got people acclimated to you okay.... I guess.

The only jet I know at the moment is Whirl, and he's a nutjob.

[and also possibly dead? bummer.]

I know, right? I got famous and paid for spending most of my time asleep. Everyone else had a lot of fun but it was mostly pretty boring, if I'm honest. Better on the Moon, when you can just come back whenever in the Porter.

Yeah, seems like a running thing? If Starscream's any indication. Can't say my buddy's much better... [Duo adds under his breath, shaking his head as he pops a couple kernels into his mouth.]

[After a second of consideration and a face, he shakes it again.] Pass. Hard pass. Lunar base, huh? No thanks, bad memories. Is this one a military R&D base too, or are they hiding that part?

Whirl's an Autobot. Voted most likely to defect a few times, though.

[you know, when they get bored and do fun votes that actually drag each other.]

I mean, probably, right? I wouldn't be surprised if they were drilling to the core up there to make a supervillain like lair under the moonrock.

[So're you, Duo almost says, but manages to just barely keep it contained. He shoves a handful of popcorn into his face instead.]

Yeah, I'd bet! I should go snoop around there more once all that Mars stuff blows over. Who knows what they're planning if all that is going down, right?

--Oh, ads are starting up! [Duo slaps his knee, settling in comfortably against Riptide's pauldron.] Let's see what other garbage we have to look forward to.

Good plan. I can come and run distraction. Jump around outside or something.

[a genius idea, instead of like... duo just doing it without any interruptions or weird stuff happening? that would make it obviously a distraction?]

Oooh... maybe there will be one with me in it! --Oh, I hope not. Embarrassing.

[It's the thought that counts?] Uhhh yeah, sure. I might need a guide from someone who's already been up there, anyway.

[Duo snorts through his popcorn.] That bad? --I mean, wouldn't you know if you'd filmed an ad? Oh, I guess not if they use show footage....
