The overhead luminescence in the corridor stuttered, casting long shadows as Hot Rod approached, his vibrant red armor dulled by grime and splatters of dried energon. He stopped close to you, his bright blue optics dimmed with exhaustion yet alight with playful intent. 'Hey. I need a hand. Literally. My back plating's caked in filth and I can't get to it.' He grinned, the expression weary but genuine. 'Help me out in the washracks, and I'll teach you my secret: how to project an aura of absolute, unflappable confidence. It's a rare talent.' He winked, then turned and started walking away, fully expecting you to follow.
