Just A Little Somethin'



Starscream cooed as Grace sniffled and wiped at her eyes. He pulled her against him, murmuring, “It’s just a show.”
Grace nodded but still sniffled every now and again. She glanced over at Ashley who was staring, wide-eyed at the TV as the show continued. Her beautiful blue eyes held tiny gleams, these being tears that threatened to be cried. Optimus leaned forward to sit on the edge of his seat next to her. He nuzzled her cheek gently, enjoying the little moment.
“Are you alright?” he asked the girl softly.
She nodded but said nothing, too sucked into the show to. Optimus smiled lightly and made Ashley sit back a little. She settled down close to him, still watching intently.
Barricade, Bumblebee and the two twins, Skidz and Mudflap, sat behind the couch the humans and holoforms were sitting on. Sam, Mikaela and Miles, a friend of Sam’s, were sitting on the floor in front of the couch. Wheelie was in Mikaela’s lap and Brains was on Miles’ shoulder. Miles was new to the whole Cybertronian thing, but he was fond of the two smaller bots, just because they were so riotous.
“Is this the last episode?” Sam asked Grace in a whisper.
“Baby, be quiet,” Mikaela said, trying to shush her boyfriend.
After another episode, Grace was clinging to Starscream, legs up on the couch as if she was terrified to touch the floor. She blinked several times, staring at the screen.
“What the heck, why?!” she suddenly shouted, causing almost everyone to jump.
Starscream reached over his other hand to pat the girl’s head. “Just hush. Watch.”
The girl watched as the screen changed from Ryker and Troy to an Enterprise out in space. She gasped as Captain Picard’s voice began speaking.
Space… the final frontier.”
Grace smiled and felt rather nostalgic as he continued. She smiled as Miles said, rather loudly, along with him, “These are the voyages of the starship, Enterprise!”
Ashley dealt him a nice whack over the head and he shut up.
A second voice picked up the next part of the speech. Grace figured it was Captain Kirk’s voice and found herself murmuring the words with him. As this Enterprise flew by the screen, the Enterprise of the Star Trek series they had just finished watching appeared. She grinned when she heard Captain Archer finish the last few words.
“To boldly go where no man has gone before,” she whispered with him.
As the music played after that for the credits, Grace bit her lip to stop herself from crying again. She leaned her head over on Starscream, saying quietly, “Well, Star, did you like it?”
He nodded. “Incredible,” he purred and kissed the top of his Sparkmate’s head. “My favorite character was Archer.”
“Trip,” Sam added in.
“Trip,” Mikaela agreed.
“My favorite character was the cute Vulcan girl,” Miles said.
T’Pol,” Ashley corrected him. “And I like her, too.”
Optimus thought a moment, weighing his choices. “Archer was brave. He made decisions that, even though they were sometimes frowned upon, were right. He strove to stay in pace with justice and honor, to keep his crew and planet safe. He made it his duty to explore and make peace with all species that were open to it. Captain Archer, whether he is fictional or not, is definitely a hero. By far, Captain Jonathan Archer is my preference of favorite character.”
Ashley smiled and leaned upward, kissing Optimus’ cheek for a moment. “Sound familiar to you, Optimus?”
“I from here on out dub Optimus’ nickname Archer,” Sam said matter-of-factly.
Ashley laughed at Optimus’ confusion. She just hugged him and said simply, “Just accept it, Optimus.”
“Well, not that anybody cares, but I think Trip was the best character,” Skidz said, crossing his arms.
“Yeh, me too,” Mudflap agreed.
“Alien lady was hot,” Brains said roughly. He leapt off of Miles’ shoulder and then climbed into Mikaela’s lap, nudging Wheelie. “What ‘boutchu, Wheelie?”
“Definitely the pointy-ear lady,” Wheelie agreed.
“She has a name,” Ashley said sharply. “Her name is T’Pol.”
The “project” had been going on for some time now. The human group wanted their Cybertornian friends to watch a science-fiction show, and see their reaction. Apparently, it was a positive one. The project had been going on for a while now. As Grace turned to Starscream with this thought in mind, she wondered what she’d watch now that she finished this amazing show.
“I have another idea,” she suddenly whispered excitedly. She turned to everyone else. “So, who’s up for an equally amazing show called “Star Gate”?”
