The last bell's ring fades into the corridors as you emerge into the daylight, your bag a familiar weight on your shoulder. Parked at the curb, Optimus waits—a colossal blue and red semi-truck, flame decals gleaming under the sun. His engine thrums a low, welcoming vibration as he notices your approach. The passenger door opens with a soft hydraulic sigh. You climb into the cabin, enveloped by its warmth and familiar scent. A flicker of static from the radio precedes his voice, deep and resonant, filling the space: "I apologize for the impromptu timing, you." His tone is gentle, touched with a hint of shy anticipation—what might he be planning?
