Setinel was bored, moreso then usual, at the moment. The four year old was on a chair outside Optimus's office, not in trouble like usual, but there because he had to be. His Father was busy and a great many of the bots were too busy with work that afternoon to be able to sparksit him. As such he had been set in a chair by his Father and asked to stay there unless an Autobot came by willing to play, or with time off. His secretery would tell him about that after all, so there shouldn't be any trouble.
He sighed, playing with his watch a bit, there wasn't much else to do at the moment, it was either this or stare at a wall. Unlucky for him, Setinel had mistakingly left his toys as home. So he simply sat there, dangling his legs and waiting for some Autobot, hopefully a fun one to come by with some time off.

Hot Rod had just finished up helping out some of the other bots and was now walking towards Optimus' office. As he turned the corner, he spotted Setinel sitting in a chair. "Hey Setinel, get in trouble again?" he asked, curiously. He knew Setinel had a way of getting into trouble when he wasn't looking for it.

"Hot Rod!" Setinel shouted rather chipperly, he lept off the chair and ran over. "Nu-uh, Daddy's got work. I just forgots my toys." With his hands, he made motions for Hot Rod to gove him a lift. He didn't normally vocalize wanting a lift on someone's shoulder, it was more of his style to show he wanted one. "I gotta stick around 'til someun off duty comes by."

Hot Rod smiled hearing Setinel call his name. "That's too bad you don't have your toys." he commented as he lifted the boy onto his shoulder. "Ya okay up there?" he asked, not wanting him to fall. "Well, that someone has come by, so what do ya want to do?" he asked, looking at Setinel.

Chris figeted slightly sitting in a crook in Hot Rod's shoulder, he nodded and gave a thumbs up. He smiled, happy it had been Hot Rod who had shown up, he had been hoping for him or Sideswipe, or Bumblebee. They were the three Autobots he was probably the closest to asside from his Father. "Racing!" He squealed. When he said 'racing' he meant driving of course, driving in Hot Rod was fun because of his daredevil-ish speeds, something Chris loved.

Hot Rod chuckled at the little one's answer. "Okay, we can go racing." he replied as he walked towards the streets. He moved Setinel off his shoulder before transforming and placed him inside the car with his holo-form. He pulled the seat belt over Setinel, making sure the little guy was safe. Then, he pulled out into the streets and revved his engines a bit, knowing Setinel liked it. "Ready to go fast little guy?" he asked.

Setinel grinned widely, of course this wouldn't be the only activity. It was only 8:00 in the morning in Earth Hours, and clearly that made Setinel a bundle full of energy. Luckily, he was pretty sure Hot Rod was used to it.
"Uh-huh!" He grinned madly, settling into the seat calmly. He and the other Techno-Organics were probably the ones who had ever riden in a Transformer. Even sparklings of full Transformer birth were the size of a fully grown human. In a way, if he were older, Setinel would have thought of it as an honor in that respect.

Hot Rod slowed down and came to a stop. The ride had been very fun for him as well as it must have been for his little passenger. "What do you wanna do next?" he asked as he removed Setinel and transformed into his regular form. He knew that that had just been one thing of the many things he would take part in today to entertain the young one.

Setinel thought for a moment, he knew Hot Rod would probably be open for anything. Out of the many guardians the boy had, or at least the primary one's, Hot Rod was the most patient and open-minded. He thought for a minute, then realized his stomach growled slightly. He was hungry, and his mind thought of the source he lived on, Energon. Normally, he would have been given human food but as a growing half-transformer, he did need his share of energon. Which was, in a way, why he was often fed Energon.
"Hot Rod, I'm hungry." He said simply, figuring Hot Rod knew where to get him something to eat. Most of the time, one of the Autobots would have to bring him somewhere to get food. As he did not know where to find it himself.

"Okay, let's go in here." Hot Rod replied, gesturing to the "food" court he had stopped at. He picked of Setinel so he wouldn't get lost or run off and headed inside. He ordered two Energon cubes for them and then handed a the smaller one to Setinel. "Drink up little guy." he said as he drank his own.

Chris looked at the cube a bit, looking for the small opening attatched to child-sized cubes before drinking it slowly. Like Transformers, it filled him up like a normal helping of human food often would. As he guzzled down the last bit of it, he was careful with setting the small cube on an area of Hot Rod's shoulder, knowing better then to just drop it into the AUtobot's hand from so high up.
He looked around, watching families walk by, he had always wondered why Hot Rod was what was called an 'Orphan', but he never brought it up. His Father all too often told him to leave it be, it was a sensitive subject. This wasn't one of those days, made clear at what he next said. "Was your Daddy an Autobot too?" He asked, clearly due to the ammount of Autobot families around.

Hot Rod saw that Setinel had finished, so he picked up the cube and disposed of it with his own. When he heard Setinel, he flinched slightly. The subject was still a very tender one for him, but he knew he had to reply. " I don't know Setinel. I never knew my dad." he said quietly.

"What? How can you not know you're own Dad-." Setinel stopped mid-sentance, deciding this wasn't the best subject. He sighed, and swung his feet slightly, thinking for a moment on what they could do. He looked at his guardian with slight thought then spoke. "Daddy gots me some new movies from Earth. We could go home and watch some." He commented, by now he knew the security code and if now he was sure Hot Rod did "Or we can go to the playground." Of this he spoke of the only one on Iacon, ironically just a few feet if not less from the base.

Hot Rod was glad when the youngling dropped the subject. "I don't mind either one. We could do both if you like, Setinel." he replied. He really didn't care what they did, he just enjoyed spending time with him.

"Both sounds good, probably should go home last." Setinel commented, thinking calmly "Daddy'll be home by the time we watcha few movies. I don't wanna worry 'im." He explained, if his Father came home to find no Autobot had brought him home and sparksat him there for a bit, he may grow worried, it was just Optimus's nature.
