In Enzo's defence, the pink thing at the end of the Bar has been inert lately. He really didn't think it a problem to go to that end for an order of chips.

Oh, how wrong he was.

He realizes his mistake as the music begins and he starts dancing involuntarily.

Thank goodness he hadn't picked up the chips yet.



[Uh-oh, the Karaoke Machine's on! Watch the horrorfun, or get ensnared yourself!]

Bumblebee's been in the Bar when that pink thing's been active before. Last time, it annoyed him enough that he forced a switch in the music.

This time? He kind of likes the tune. Both of them, since there's definitely more than one going on here. Might as well sing along with the first one- someone else can pick up the second...

As Rick Astley's melodic line plays, Bumblebee sings out in accompaniment to the rhythm track:

"I like big butts and I can not lie!
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung! Wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed!
Deep in the jeans she's wearing-
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring!
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture!
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny-"

Did we mention he's dancing? Where he picked that style up we don't know. They don't move like that on Cybertron, that's for sure.

Enzo's slightly shrill treble cuts in, none of the panic on his face coming through in the sound.

^♫We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I...^♫

Poor kid! Luckily, Bee is perfectly happy to pick up with a gleefully exclaimed "Baby! Got! Back!" when Enzo falters.

[a1enzo]

Seriously, what is this?!

^♫A full commitment's what I'm thinking of,
You wouldn't get this from any other guy!^♫

[prob-japanese.livejournal.com]

Bee will explain to him later!

"So ladies!- yeah!- Ladies!- yeah!-
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes!
Turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout!"

[a1enzo]

And then Dot will turn Bee into scrap!

^♫Never gonna give you up!
Never gonna let you down!
Never gonna run around and desert you!^♫

[prob-japanese.livejournal.com]

"Baby! Got! "

[a1enzo]

^♫Never gonna make you cry!
Never gonna say goodbye!
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you!^♫

"Baby! Got!-"

Bumblebee spins on one foot before shifting to the next verse.

"'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play!
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on!
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout-"

Bumblebee's used to humans making that face! Granted, usually it follows a transformation from Camaro to 'bot mode, but still!

When the song is over he waves and lets out a cheerful whistle of greeting. He's in a good mood just now.

[grumpyseer.livejournal.com]

"jt--fwz--what the hell was that??"

[prob-japanese.livejournal.com]

"Karaoke!" says Bumblebee. "The machine makes its own selections."

He thinks it's pretty straightforward.

[grumpyseer.livejournal.com]

"B-but--that. He was singing and you were--talking about--"

There was once an order of royal knights in Dominic's native kingdom. He's never encountered one Sir Mix-A-Lot, however.

[prob-japanese.livejournal.com]

"Oh, that-" Bumblebee shrugs. "A topic of interest to some of the humans on the planet I currently live on. I don't take much interest in it myself. But they seem enthusiastic enough to write music about it."

[grumpyseer.livejournal.com]

"...evidently," says Dominic after a long moment.

"I need a drink."

HEY LOOK AT THAT HE'S IN A BAR WHAT A COINCIDENCE.

[prob-japanese.livejournal.com]

"My commander speaks highly of the Scotch, especially for the humans we work with," says Bumblebee. "For whatever that's worth."

Helpful Autobot is helpful!

[bprd_agent_red]

The music catches his attention first, and then when he looks up and sees who its coming from Hellboy laughs and heads over.

"What're you doin'?" The what is actually pretty obvious, it's more the 'why' that he's curious about.

He's giving Enzo room for the moment, those dance moves look tricky.

[a1enzo]

Enzo is through panicking by this point, and has relaxed enough to find this actually entertaining, but he's still unable to respond beyond rolling his eyes at Red.

Might want to wait 'til he's done.

[bprd_agent_red]

Oh, this is good.

Red pulls out a stool, orders a beer and sits back to watch.

He will wait until Enzo is done to approach, but he's also going to watch.

[a1enzo]

Enzo won't let the expectation of merciless teasing spoil the fun of the moment.

Well, not too much.

Not that it makes much difference, since he can't really stop singing or dancing in any case.

^♫...never gonna say goodbye!
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you!^♫

A final whirl-and-pose, and then a sudden slump as the Karaoke Machine releases its hold on his muscles. Also, giggles.

"Man, how does it do that?"

[bprd_agent_red]

"You got some pretty nice move there, Enzo. Ever think about Broadway?" Red ribs him, clapping his hands and laughing while he stands up.

[a1enzo]

Actually, the teasing doesn't have quite the desired effect:

"Broadway? Is that an Earth place?" Okay, that's weird...

[bprd_agent_red]

It certainly wasn't the expected reaction.

Red nods his head, "Yeah. Place they put on musicals an' stuff. Why? You heard of it?"

[a1enzo]

"Dot's Diner is in Baudway sector."
