[riptide had, perhaps, abruptly realised that the whole MTO line of conversation is a little too personal, especially with how it had related to wasp. it's fine! maybe he'll talk about it with anode when they're a bit closer.
what riptide does when they hang up the call is shove a cube of energon in to wasp's hands then hoist him up onto his shoulders, carrying him through the ship to the airlock they'd decided on meeting, pairs of maglocks in hand.]
[ There's a surprised buzz from the kid as Wasp is scooped, managing to hold onto his cube and drink it even as he's being carried along. He's about halfway through it when they finally reach Anode, and Wasp's optics light up. He's gotta wave to her! It's always a good day when he sees Anode. ]
Anode and Boat-bot really taking Wasp outside ship? [ Of course he's excited!! ]
[ He's going to fuss with them for a little while, but he'll figure it out; part of the delay is just how he's vibrating with excitement. He's going into space! Without having to have a ship between him and it! He might even be slightly jealous, these two and their fancy space-capable alt modes. ]
Wasp wants to go flying! Can Anode and Boat-bot go as fast as Wasp wants?
[ Wasp giggles a little at Riptide, easily and happily letting himself be scooped. He's perfectly content to just dangle there, knowing he's in good hands. Riptide's a good scooper. ]
[ Anode gives everyone a glance over to make sure they're set for the spacewalk, then activates the airlock to gently float out into space. She hovers there for a moment, then stretches out and lets a foot 'clunk' against the hull. Not that there's sound because space. ]
[riptide is out after anode, carefully holding wasp out so he can connect to the ship's hull. he's done this so many times himself he isn't afraid about pushing himself out after and into space, floating around for a moment.]
Ahh...! [internal comms so they can hear each other, even if everyone hates it.] Fresh air. I haven't been out since we did that comet surfing.
[ Wasp experimentally plunks down onto the ship's hull, spinning a little slower than he'd like to watch Riptide float away a bit. He grins and waves out to him, opening his mouth for a moment before remembering the whole thing about space and also switching to those internal comms. ]
Wasp remember that! Wasp saw a Decepticon hit a comet.
She's great. [he tilts his head over at wasp, having crouched to flip around on the hull, legs floating back behind him, arms crossed in front of him. like he's laying on a bed, but upright. space!] Have you met a Decepticon before?
Wasp met a Sound-bot, and talked to Autobot Mega-bot. Both were nice to Wasp...
Better than Spider-bot before Wasp got here. [ He nods, and then tries to go floating too. Pushes himself off experimentally and tries 'swimming' over to Riptide. ]
Oh, my god, Megatron is so weirdly nice now, right? [he says, shifting to give the two space, though clearly ready to grab them should something go awry.] You can't push too hard, though! You don't really slow down in space. It takes some getting used to.

Yep. Just put on your mag-clamps, activate them and we'll go have a nice quiet time looking at the stars outside. Just the three of us.
no subject
[he picks wasp up off his shoulders, holding the smaller pair of clamps out.]
You remember how to put them on?

Well, yeah, of course! We just can't get too far from the ship. Don't want to get left behind.

[he crouches down to lift wasp up again, because some deep-seated instinct in him just tells him to constantly lift that baby up.]
After you, m'lady. [his expression crimps.] Oh, eugh. Bad. Not saying that again.

Come on, Wasp wants to be out there!

You did? Was that poor Slipstream?
no subject
[he respects it! she knows what she likes. riptide floats out in space, then activates his magclamps to stick to the ship.]
It was probably pretty funny to see though, right?
no subject
Wasp don't know a Slip-bot. What is Slip-bot like?
no subject
[ Anode laughs. ]
She's a flyer, Decepticon. She's nice, though. Really earnest.

You need to push off from someone or something. Without engines you can't control your direction.
