He vented softly. Ratchet was right. He'd been through a lot and of course there was a lot to still talk over. "...this little one's safe at least..." His voice was soft. "Oh Ratchet...I can only pray...I can only pray neither one of us ever has to go through it again."
He paused. Papa. Ratchet hadn't called him that in so long! His spark seemed to soar even in such a dark moment.
"Love you, son. Love you, little one." He creaked out. Slowly, he reached to gently thumb along Nightshade's cheek.

Ratchet held the both of them so very close, not wanting to let go. He was afraid that Pharma would slip away from him again if he did, but realistically knew that it couldn't happen. Not here. This was a safe place, and there was no one here who would try to harm them. Wheeljack had made sure of that time and time again for the medic.
"I don't want you to suffer.. Never again.."
He forced a smile as Pharma told him that he loved him back, but relaxed all the more at 'son'. He wasn't used to Pharma actually calling him that, even if he regarded the other as his adopted sire in his helm so many times. Ratchet watched as Pharma stroked Nightshade's cheek, happy to see the little one calming too.
"Do you need rest? I know you've got the Energon in you now, but I don't mind letting you recharge. I promise I'll stay here, but if I leave it will only be for a moment to give Nightshade back to Wheeljack."

Nightshade smiled brightly as Pharma began to stroke her cheekplate with his digit, squealing softly. It was a comforting feeling, and it helped relax her more after worrying about the both of them. Everything seemed to be fine now, and that was just great.
She babbled a little bit, speaking to the little newspark though unsure if it would understand her. She was excited about having a new friend to play with and couldn't wait to officially meet them, but at least for now they could talk.
As she babbled, a squealy yawn escaped from the little femme, blinking a couple of times before realizing that she'd really even yawned. Her Grandpa seemed plenty tired himself, but she didn't want to leave just yet. She was extremely comfortable!

Never again. A finality that Pharma prayed for. After Shockwave and the Decepticon Justice Division, he never wanted to go back to the Nemesis. His optics dimmed for a moment--purely from exhaustion. When asked if he wanted to recharge, he just couldn't.
"Can't. Don't feel like I can recharge. Been recharging too much."
He gave a tiny smile at the squealy yawn. It seemed like someone looked a little sleepy! No, not just looked. She sounded sleepy.
"But someone seems comfy on me."

Ratchet frowned a bit at Pharma's words, but nodded in understanding. Given everything Pharma had been through, he understood why he felt he couldn't rest.
"Alright. Just.. know that I'm here and will stay with you if you change your mind. I know you need rest, but I'm not going to force you to either."
At the little sparkling's yawn, even the medic couldn't help but smile brightly. She did have the most adorable yawn he had ever heard since the days where he cared for Strongarm when she was little. Sometimes he forgot just how sweet and innocent sparklings could be, and it only reminded him of the kind of world that she had been brought into. The same world Pharma's sparkling was going to be brought into as well.. He wanted to keep the war far from the both of them for as long as he could. Ratchet knew that he couldn't hide it from them forever, but.. he wanted to let them live as normal a life as they could.
"Definitely. It's alright if you want to take a nap, my little Nightshade~. I'm not going anywhere, but if you want to go back to your daddy I can take you to him."

Nightshade yawned once more as she nestled close to Pharma. She was growing increasingly comfortable, and she actually didn't want to leave that spot. She knew that her papa would take care of her, but she wanted to get to know her Grandpa, too. Spending this little bit of time with him like this was definitely helping, even if she was tired.
"Gap.." The sparkling didn't quite know what her papa was telling her, but she did know what 'daddy' meant, and that was her carrier~! Was he coming? Or was he going to take her to him. Nightshade whined a little bit, not wanting to leave Grandpa Pharma just yet.
Her little blue optics closed as she got comfortable, though not fully in recharge just yet. It wouldn't take her long, though.

Pharma himself gave a tiny smile. He didn't feel like moving, and Nightshade looked too comfortable to move. He just couldn't even if he wasn't able to sleep right now.
"Good. Just...just don't leave me. Don't leave me." His voice was soft and a bit timid. Whatever had happened had been traumatizing enough.
He stroked Nightshade gently. It seemed she understood a lot of what Ratchet was trying to say to her--at least, certain things. And she certainly understood that there was new life thrumming in his chest right now...

"I promise I'm not going to leave you. Even if I have to get up to take Nightshade back to Wheeljack, I swear to you that I'll be right back. I'll always be back."
Ratchet couldn't bare the thought of leaving Pharma for an extended period of time, and honestly didn't want to leave his side period. He knew that he was going to have to at some point, but they both needed this time together right now. After everything they'd both been through, and after the last five months at the very least. He had honestly lost sense of time completely, and was stunned to hear that he himself had been held prisoner on the Nemesis for five months.
He blinked in surprise at his sparkling's single word. "You want to stay with Grandpa while you nap, huh? That's perfectly alright, sweetling~." Leaning down to plant a soft kiss on her forehelm, Ratchet smiled brightly.
"I'll be right here the whole time."

Even thought Nightshade didn't know what it was Ratchet was telling her, he had said 'Grandpa' and he had been talking in an approving tone. Was he going to let her stay with Grandpa Pharma a little longer~?
She giggled at the kiss before nestling close to Pharma, making herself comfortable. This way she'd be close to him and would be able to hear the newspark that was going about in his spark chamber. The little sparkling nuzzled his chest a little bit, as if to nuzzle both Pharma and the tiny spark of life within. It was the easiest way for her to say she loved him without having to actually speak.
"Luvoo~.."
Of course, it didn't stop her from actually saying it either now that she knew how to. With another tiny yawn, she let her optics close and fell asleep.
