[ Optimus is shiny for the first time in a while, during his down shift into misery he let dust collect onto himself. Yet here he is, shiny and mask down with a smile. He makes his way to Riptide holding a large basket of energon goodies and drinks.]
I have... attempted a few cooking tricks on my own. Followed directions, I thought you might like something hand crafted but There's also professionally made treats here too.
Wow. Look at what everyone else is missing out on! [he puts his hand on optimus's forearm when he comes over, smiling a genuine, happy smile.] I bet your stuff is really good! Professional stuff ain't always made with love.
[ Optimus gets sheepish and tries to turtle his head into his body. ]
I have been reading cooking tips in my datapad and then I may of just gone the rest on instinct. Which is why I needed to be extra clean for the picnic, I was... covered in goop for two hours before asking you out.
Ha! Aw, I wouldn't have minded the goop. [anyone trying to make themselves look nice for him is such a foreign concept that riptide barely grasps it. it makes him feel warm in his spark, though, and he likes that.] You don't have to be. You know-- we haven't set anything on fire, yet. By all accounts this is going pretty well!
I have only started developing hobbies... I mean not entirely true, but I have for the ship here started them. Though I admit, the cooking is newest to me. [ He sets the basket to the ground in front of the large window to watch the stars pass. ]
Would you... like to kiss me? Perhaps that is a forward that is right for both of us? It could be chaste to the forhead, it could be on my lips. It could mean what ever you want it to mean. [ Optimus turns to face Riptide.]
You are a dear friend, a friend whom I care for in a way I can not explain.
I feel that, [he mutters, looking over when he optimus looks at him. he gets the impression optimus wants a proper kiss, so he leans into meet his mouth with his own.]
[ Optimus' face is pleasantly warm, reaching his hands up to touch each side of Riptide's own. Loose enough for him to slip away with done, but not before Optimus kisses softly back. ]
[it's nice, the warmth. makes it feel like he's doing the right thing, makes it feel comfortable. riptide can't help himself smiling into it before he pulls back.]
[ The sheer startle of the slap sends Prime stumbled a step with a yelp. He stands there arms forward, leaned and posed quite foolishly. He slowly returns to stand and silently as his finnels pose back stares up at Riptide. ]
[ The finnels move back and forth as he looks back and he brings his arms to his chest, there are gears turning in his head and he nods. ]
[ Optimus shrinks a moment, trying to hide his growing blush and ups his mask for the moment. ]
Startled is all, you meant no harm. IT was playful, comradery. You meant no harm, I've just never had my rear... slapped before. Not even Jetfire had done that.
And he never even touched your aft? [riptide gasps scandalously.] I don't believe that for a second. I bet you two at least kissed on a late-night mission. You're way too good at it!
[ Optimus' body heat rises as he tries to act in control of the situation, setting his basket down and draping a blanket down for them to sit on. ]
Well, It was as professional... as those that Powerlink could be professional. But I heard the jokes once in a while, I was a top? Which I didn't get, maybe someday...

I am quite proud of it. I even tried mixing some of the drinks myself. Though I'm much more proud of the baking aspect.

Woah! That's really sweet. I love it. Did you go to Mac's for pointers?

I would of felt like a poor date and even worse a friend. Whatever we are, I wanted to make sure I was presentable.
No fires, I hear those do set a mood so if there's any lit on accident I guess it's a sign. [ A light joke. ]
A sign of what, I really don't know.

I think I see the deck just ahead of us. Let us worry about what I was doing later.

[he says this, casting a grin over at optimus.]
I'm not worried. I'm just making conversation. It's nice to know you and what you do in your spare time, you know.

I will have to ask after our ... date is over. [ His mask falls back down and he smiles alittle sheepishly. ]
I don't know when the last time I had so much free time to be jovial like this.
