[Starflight will receive a gift with a note: "To Starflight, From Minimus Ambus. DO NOT OPEN UNTIL THE 25TH".

Inside are a set of bookends.]

Hello Minimus Ambus,

Thank you so much for the gift! That was really thoughtful. We did something like this on the Moira once, but I hadn't realized it was close to the same time.

Do you like reading? I can send you some pyrrhian scrolls I copied, if that is something you'd be interested in?

Thank you again!
– Starflight

[The response comes many hours later, when Minimus is fully awake.]

Starflight:

I enjoy nonfiction and certain fiction. I would be interested regardless.

In addition, I wish to discuss Four's parole after her imprisonment with you. She has been behaving, but I don't trust her enough to leave her bed. See me when you are available.

These two are very informative, I think. I hope you like them.

[ Attached are two files which Starflight had previously transcribed from some of his scrolls from home: A NightWing Guide to the Dragons of Pyrrhia and A Natural History of Unnatural Dragon Abilities. ]

Yes, sir. I'll stop by the security office right away.

-----

[ Some time later Starflight cautiously steps into the security office. Despite the fact he knew he wasn't in trouble it was still a bit nerve wracking to be called in like this. ]

Minimus– er, Magnus? Sir? You wanted to talk to me about Four?

[legalcy]

[As much as Minimus wants to spend the day in the berth with Megatron, he eventually has to check his messages and review the few crime reports for today. When Stargflight enters, he can tell that Minimus is looking a bit...off.

Namely, that he's staring at the form on the screen with his mind somewhere entirely else.]

Huh? Oh.

[He pushes away from the screen and sit back in his chair, pretending like he just wasn't remembering something inappropriate.]

Are you willing to look after Four while she's on parole?

[petrifiedshadow]

I'm sorry, is now a bad time? You said to come when I was available but I can come back later if that would be better, I don't want to bother you if you're busy, and your work is way more important than mine so I can wait, if you need me to.

[ Starflight pulls his wings closer to his body, shrinking back a bit. Even without the armor Minimus has such an air of authority it still makes him nervous. ]

[legalcy]

No, no, I was...surprised. [He regrets coming into the office so soon. He can't even look stern. At least as stern as he usually does.]

I'm not busy. That is - not excessively so.

[A nervous peek at 4] Can I trust you to keep guard over her until we are certain she won't endanger us again?

[petrifiedshadow]

Oh!

[ Starflight look over at the terrarium. Normally he wouldn't be too concerned, but considering the damage she had managed to do that felt like a lot of responsibility. ]

I can try– I mean, yes. I'll do my best! Does she need to stay in there, or can she come out? She can have her communicator right? Are there other rules I need to know?

[legalcy]

That is up to you. The point of the parole is that she is not longer in her prison, but as long as she behaves, she will be fine.

[What else is there? He can't really focus on work today.]

I can sent you a copy of the manual for your reference. Any crimes should still be reported, and after the month, we will discuss if she does not require a chaperone.

[petrifiedshadow]

Of- of course, sir. I'll report if anything goes wrong immediately, but I will try and see that doesn't happen.

Thank you...should I take the terrarium now, or leave it here and just take Four....?

[His voice trailed off, unsure. This was very much outside his usual comfort zone but he didn't like seeing Four locked up.]

[legalcy]

[He looks at the terrarium, covered in mechanical parts with Four in the middle having fun with her new toys.]

Just be sure to bring all of her personal items.

[petrifiedshadow]

Y- yes, sir. I'll get going so you can get back to work.

[He's just gonna grab what he needs and scurry out, he doesn't want to bother Minimus more than necessary.]
