[Nightshade]

Nightshade stretched awake in her crib, a squealy yawn escaping from her vocalizer.  It was still quite early in the morning, but the sparkling still hadn't quite grasped the concept of time just yet.  Just that when her Papa and Daddy would say it's time to eat or time to recharge or time to go play with Sagitta or.. various things like that.  She still had no idea what any of those really meant, but she was still young.  Just bring on that Energon and play time~.

She sat up, looking to the berth where her Papa and Daddy recharged.  Papa wasn't there..  He had said something about work before she went to recharge so.. maybe that's where he was?  Either way she knew that only meant one thing.

Time to spend time with her carrier~!

Pulling herself up to her pedes by grabbing onto the edge of the crib, she made to climb over the side so she could escape.  She needed to stack some of her toys to do it as well as toss the pillow onto the floor to use as a cushion, but she did make it over.  Perhaps not gracefully.. but made it all the same.  The sparkling crawled over to the berth, pulling herself up onto her pedes once more.  Walking wasn't one of her strongest skills quite yet, but she could stand up for a short while with some help.  She reached for the top of the berth, whining a bit because it was a bit too high up for her to reach.  Nightshade attempted to jump, though achieved nothing more than a tiny hop, whining as she still couldn't quite reach.

And so, the sparkling sat down on the floor.  "Daddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy."  Wake up already!

"Hrm? Mruh?" Wheeljack cracked open a bleary optic before it hit him. Nightshade. He slowly sat up, leaning foward to reach for her. "Mornin' little Sprocket. You must have had quite an adventure this morning."

He gave a proud rumble from his vocals. All Wreckers had that deep rumble of pride, but Wheeljack's rumble was for more than just himself now. He had a proud smirk on his face at his own daughter's determination and will. She was definitely going to go places, no matter what she did!

"Ready for a day with papa, huh?" He grinned.

[Nightshade]

Nightshade giggled, letting herself be picked up by Wheeljack.  She giggled happily, not too concerned about the fact that she'd just woken her daddy.  Funny.  The thing they always tell kids not to do.

Once she was in his arms, Nightshade snuggled close, resting her helm against his chest with a light nuzzle.  It was the closest she could get to his spark, and even now she didn't understand why she had to be separated from it to begin with.  It was so bright and warm.. even if there had been some scary feelings she'd felt before said separation.  So much anger and sadness..

"Mm-hmm~!  Wif Daddy~."

The sparkling was more than happy to spend the day with her carrier, learning all sorts of fun things with him.  With her sire, there was always caution and some fun, but with her carrier?  Anything was possible!  The femme squealed happily at the thought.

"Play~?"
