Do you bots have some sort of holiday such as Cyber-mus or so? Thank You.

Author: *in a very bright Christmas-ey getup* Oooh, great ask!!

Smokes: What are you wearing??

Bee: *wearing a Christmas hat* <It's the Christmas season! We have to wear stuff like this!> *goes around and puts hats on everyone*

Omega: *already has one on* Gives mine to Wheeljack! It will complete his outfit!

WJ: *wearing a Christmas sweater with flashing lights* I want all out today. *smirks*

Alpha: Well, I guess this means we all know what the idea of Christmas is, at least. 

Miko: *sitting on Bulk's shoulder* Yeah, I informed everyone!

Jack: *rolls eyes* We all did!

KO: *bursts in* That includes us! 

BD: *throws red and green confetti everywhere*

Megs: *crosses his arms as Bee gives him a hat* I am not wearing that.

OP: From what I understand about this season, it is a requirement.

Miko: *she totally lied about that but she's loving it*

Megs: *grumbles and puts it on*

Arachnid: *wearing a Christmas sweater that says 'I'm on the naughty list'* I did not know that humans created such comfortable comfort wear.

SW: *also wearing one*

SS: *takes his hat and huffily puts it on his head*

Dreadwing: *awkwardly lets Bee put a hat on his head* This is strange to me...

Author: You guys look great!! We'll wait to answer this ask until Ratchet and Taylor get back.

Arcee: *as Bee pulls a Cybertronian Christmas sweater over her helm* They should be calling for a Groundbridge any minute now, once they get out of the open. 

Ultra Magnus: *trying to avoid Bee*

Bee: *pops up behind him and puts a hat on him* <Even you have to wear one!> ^^

Megs and Ultra Magnus: *sharing the -_- face*

*monitor beeps*

Ratchet: *over the comms* This is Ratchet, requesting a GroundBridge back to base.

Taylor: *in the background* I'm expecting some kind of ask or dare when we get back!

Ratchet: *obviously doesn't want to* Shush! Sending my location to you now.

Bulk: Got it. *opens GroundBridge*

Ratchet: *drives in and transforms*

Taylor: *sitting in his servo* Hey, guys!!

Everyone: Hey, Taylor!! 

Omega: And Ratchet, too! *goes over and hugs him*

Ratchet: *awkwardly pats her back*

Bee: *runs over with a hat for both of them*

Ratchet: Oh, no you don't. *tries to evade him*

Omega: *sneak attacks him with Christmas hat* Gotcha!

Bee: *places a hat on Taylor's head carefully* <We figured you would try to get away.>

Taylor: *giggles at her husband*

Ratchet: *groans*

Author: Great, everyone's here!

Ratchet: What are you wearing??!!

Author: *rolls eyes* It's Christmas! So, Christmas wear! *shrugs*

Taylor: *laughs* It looks great!

Raf: *wearing a hat and has Christmas lights wrapped around him* Right?

Author: Like I said, everyone's here, so we can answer this ask now!!

Ratchet: *reads ask*

Taylor: So, like, a Cybertronian Christmas?

Smokes: I can tell you now, we didn't have a holiday like this back-

OP: There was something very similar before the war, yes.

Smokes: Wait, what??!

Bee: *looks very confused*

Arcee: *looking like she's thinking hard*

Ratchet: *nods* I remember. Primus, it's been such a long time.

Bulk: Oh, yeah. I briefly remember that.

Megs: *nods more solemnly*

Ultra Magnus: I only have a insignificant memory of such a thing.

Omega: Wait!! So you're telling me we used to have a Christmas?!

KO: And none of us knew about it?! Think about all the shiny new things I could have gotten!

Ratchet: Well, it wasn't called that, but yes.

Taylor: *looks up at him* You never told me anything about that.

Ratchet: *glances away* There was not much to talk about. It ended immediately after the conflict started.

OP: *nods* All Cybertronians no longer had the desire for such an event as everything happened, even if there were a few who wanted to keep it alive.

Alpha: *after a pause* Well.. what was it like?

Bulk: Well, I don't remember much of it, but it was pretty appreciated. It at the end of every Orbital period.

Miko: Wait, so it was like your New Year's Eve, too?

WJ: *shrugs* I suppose. It was just combined into one event.

Raf: So what did you do?

OP: It was very similar to your Christmas. We each gave a gift to one's we thought important in our lives, whether it be sparkmates, friends, or parental units or siblings.

Ratchet: They normally were not much. But it meant a lot to everyone.

WJ: However, there were a lot of times the 'gifts' were just hanging out with them. 

OP: The importance of the relationship meant more than the gift.

Author: Wow, so very much like our Christmas.

OP: I remember that I enjoyed it very much. *smiles a little sadly*

Ratchet: *glances at the ground*

Megs: *mumbles* I never got to experience it until Orion showed it to me one Orbital cycle.

Author: Aw, sorry big guy. *pats shoulder* 

Taylor: *a little sad* ... Do you miss it?

Ratchet: *looks back up at her for a second* At times. However.. I did not enjoy it so much when I was small.

Taylor: *confused* Why?

Ratchet: *looks away again* I'd... rather not talk about it.

*glum atmosphere*

Miko: *after awkward pause* Oh, cheer up! C'mon guys! You're practically having your holiday right here! It's basically the same thing!

Fowler: Yeah, no need to feel so down!

June: *leans on him* We can celebrate it right here!

OP: *smiles a little* Thank you. We appreciate it.

Author: *holds arms out* Alright, group hug!!

Everyone: *brings it in*

Author: *squished in the middle of it* Oh yea, what was your holiday called anyway?

Ratchet: It didn't really have a name.

Author: Oh, okay.
