((November 6th, joint/side thread on the same day as "A Match In Style"//Location: starts at side hangars//Time: 6:30 pm local time))
It was gradually setting into nightfall. Pale pastel colors painted the dusk sky of the NEST territory and city surrounding it. Blackfire's master Twister was relaxing on the roof of the main complex while Blackfire had begun to explore, sticking to the ground for now. She scurried along near the side hangars, looking for playmates or something/someone to watch. She was rather bored and felt out of place, but this what both she and her master wanted: change.
Blackfire was currently perched on random crate out near the back entrance of the hangar where some of the NEST vehicles were parked. Her tail and pointy receptors twitched alertly, and her amber glowing optics flicked about from side to side as she scanned her new territory. She hoped someone interesting would walk by, she wanted to meet some people! So far, this side of the base was rather quiet.

With her semester at college over and finally getting a break Anna had taken the chance to transfer to a college that was much closer and allowing her to spend more time at base. This day was no different and she was taking a stroll around the hangers just for something to do. Her father was busy, her mother was taking a day to herself, and her uncle was busy with his usual duties so she really didn't have much going on at the moment. Right at the time she was around the side hangers despite it starting to get near nightfall though not quite, Anna was fairly bored and had nothing else to do.
Though as she was passing some crates she gave them a look over with a bored gaze, at first seeing a shape and didn't really pay attention until she paused and did a double take. Looking once more at one of the crates her jaw dropped slightly when she saw the robotic creature, a rather unusual one she never expected to see: a robotic dragon just watching the place and perched on a crate. Unfortunately Anna wasn't a shy girl and she moved closer to Blackfire with a look of awe and wonder,"You know you really could prove people around here that dragons were real. Although they might be skeptical since your cybertronian and all."She said with a grin.

Blackfire sat up a little straighter and chirped excitedly as Anna approached. She hopped down from the large crate and walked over to her cautiously. She'd visited humans before when Twister didn't need her near and had lots of fun with them in a good way despite her being Decepticon. All though she could be violent, she was not an ordinary Decepticon. Some how her cute and playful side still remained intact and she could be very gentle around humans when she wanted to make friends.
Unfortunately, Blackfire could only speak Cybertronian, so her receptors twitched and she tilted her head when Anna spoke to her directly, telling her she didn't understand with generating another more confused sounding 'chirp?'. Her wings ruffled as she cautiously approached Anna.
Blackfire was just a little taller than her, able to look down on her slightly if she sat on her haunches, but on all fours she was a little under her shoulders. She looked something like a metallic salamander, but one with a graceful tail and a large wingspan, allowing her surpreme agility in flight and on the ground. As well, her tail had tail fins on the end of it too, allowing extra stability like horizontal stabilizers on an aircraft.
Blackfire tried her best to appear friendly. She wanted cuddles and attention, to make new friends at this base. She wanted to be trusted, and she didn't want to be lonely. The only way she could achieve that is if she could try making friends like she had before outside the Decepticon territories.

Anna looked at Blackfire and realized the dragon transformer couldn't understand a single thing she just said and wondered how she could be able to communicate with her. This was going to be a tough one since Anna didn't know how to speak cybertronian though though she did know the autobot glyphs yet she had nothing to write with. Yet this creature didn't seem threatening though rather cautious so to show she herself meant no hostility she held out a hand and smiled a bit.
Perhaps she could communicate somehow to the dragon, maybe even sound out some things for her to understand. Though they would have to see how this turned out otherwise she would have to have someone translate for her.

Blackfire's receptors twitched slightly in attentiveness as she inched forward a little more to sniff Anna's hand. Her bright optics watched Anna warily as she sniffed, the sniffing rather audible. She wanted to try and give Anna her name, but unfortunately she had no idea how. She let out a soft: "~Chiiirp?~" which sounded very much like the chirps most birds on earth made but more "metallic/graty" and alien. As she chirped inquisitively, Blackfire inched forward a little more past Anna's arm and sat down on her haunches again, almost completely level with Anna, though since she was on the small side she had to tilt her head downward.
She fanned out her wings briefly to stretch them, and curled her tail around her forelegs, waiting to see how Anna would react to the rather large wingspan which she possessed despite her size only being about as big as Ravage, maybe a bit bigger.

Hearing her chirp Anna guessed she didn't know what to say, possibly just as confused with her language just as she would be with cybertronian. And the size of Blackfire surprised her since she seemed just slightly taller though she truly was longer, especially her wingspan which seemed pretty big. Though the young woman seemed a bit amazed instead of scared, wondering how high and fast such a dragon like cybertronian could go. Then a thought occurred to her as she glanced to the sky then to Blackfire and thought this might be a good way to show some communication.
Motioning for Blackfire to follow she moved away from the crates a bit and looked at Blackfire and pointed towards the sky, her look one of askance as she made a few hand motions to indicate height and how fast for flying. Though she hoped Blackfire would even understand.

Blackfire squeaked excitedly as Anna pointed to the sky and moved her arms about in a bizzare fashion. She wasn't panicking judging by the look on her face, the look was more inquisitive for sure. The dragon femme began to dart around Anna in wide circles, half running half gliding then doing a little aerial twist to show off as if to exaggerate the fact she could go higher and move about at fairly high altitudes due to the minimal effort she demonstrated. After a loop or two, she expanded the glide and angled her wings into a longer climb before changing the angle again to land softly in front of Anna a few feet away. Blackfire wasn't looking at Anna directly at this point, but she was certainly paying close attention to her body language and expressions.

Anna watched the demonstrations Blackfire showed, smiling in awe as she had never seen any aerial transformer like the dragon, and the tricks she could do were impressive. Though it also showed the dragon understood her body language a little and she was quite excited to see more and learn more about her, if it was a her and well it would be a good start to find out the dragon's name. Glancing around for a moment she noticed her bike just a few yards away from near the side hangers and she motioned for Blackfire to follow her before jogging over to the motorcycle.
Kneeling down she began to rummage through her bag she left beside it, looking for something before at last taking out a note pad of paper and finding a pen, having forgotten her motorcycle had been near. When you got bored sometimes you forgot things but hopefully this would help. She may not know Cybertronian language but she knew the symbols or their alphabet in a way to write out some words. Setting the note pad on the seat of her bike she began to carefully write out a sentence in the glyphs before lifting it to show Blackfire, the words showing a question of ~What is your name?~ and Anna hoped the dragon could read however.

Never having seen a human write before to communicate, Blackfire cocked her head curiously and watched in slight anticipation as Anna sat there on her bike, and then tried to determine how to answer her back in written form. She could try to draw, but how? she was bigger and couldn't use that thing she was holding, it was too small. She didn't want to tear up the ground either. She needed a much larger canvas...
But she didn't have much a choice. She heated her own claws with a burst of blue flames and used the sparks to melt some of the tar in the ground to draw the symbols. She spelled out the symbols used for her name, hoping she could understand what it was before the glow faded.

Anna raised her eye brows in surprise as Blackfire wrote out a name, watching the tar melt and quickly looked over the glyphs she wrote and quickly copied them. Looking over the ones used she glanced at the dragon and nodded,"So your name is Blackfire, fitting."She said with a nod to show she understood. Now she was just curious to whether Blackfire was male or female, though the symbiote didn't have to be either since Transformers only went on mentality, though it never hurt to inquire. So Anna wrote down the question that didn't require the tar to be melted as then showed the next question: ~Male or female?~

Blackfire used the same method to write out 'female' in a different spot beyond the area previously used and then sat on her haunches. Tilting her head, she chirped excitedly at Anna, glancing between her face and the note pad, wondering what else she would say next. Blackfire liked this girl, she hoped communication would become a little easier if they were patient. Unfortunately, unlike the others, she could only speak Cybertronian.

Anna smiled a bit and read the glyphs before she wrote down her next question, hoping maybe in the future communication might prove to be easier in some way.She thought perhaps using sign language would help at one point and she would have to learn it, that’s if Blackfire knew it or she could try use of body language. Finally she turned the pad around to show her next question,~Are you with someone? Like a symbiote of some kind?~ The question said and she even had a curious look to show she was just curious about Blackfire, never really having been around too many animal transformers.

Blackfire bobbed her head, then looked around for an aircraft similar to Twister's alternate mode. She bounded off down the tarmac towards the general direction of some Blackhawks, then darted back, squeaking excitedly. She wanted to tell her the alternate mode was a different make and model, but she didn't know how. The beady optics flicked between Anna and the helicopter nearest them as the distance between them closed again. She flew towards the helicopter and lightly perched on the large rotor hub with her hind legs, careful to avoid damaging it. Twister was out right now, otherwise she might have led Anna straight to the femme for her to meet her. Maybe a bit later they could meet if Anna didn't require a stasis. The sun was setting, after all, and this little femme didn't know the typical sleep patterns of humans very well yet.

Looking towards the Blackhawks Blackfire was indicating Anna followed the dragon symbiote to them and was a little surprised. "That's a awesome alternate form choice, though we don't get too many helicopter bots around here."She said, thinking for a moment as she looked towards the setting sun but saw there was still plenty of time for her to speak with Blackfire before she would turn in. Not to mention it was still kinda early anyway.
Then a question came to mind as she wrote it down before showing Blackfire,~How fast and high can you fly?~ It asked as she was quite curious to see Blackfire in action, she was sure it would have been pretty impressive to fly like she did.

Blackfire tilted her head at Anna from her perch then, contemplating on how she should explain this one. It wasn't too cold out, but perhaps she could take her for a quick ride, and if she liked it, bundle up and go higher and farther. Blackfire squeaked and hopped off the helicopter, approaching her cautiously like a hesitant cat, tail wavering back and forth like a serpent. She nudged at Anna's right hand curling around her and then flapping her wings before nudging her onto back suddenly. Getting a running start which would give Anna time to hold on (or leap off in surprise, whichever), she would launch herself into the air and demonstrate just how high she could go.
But of course, she would only go so far, basically until the city of New Jersey they base was tucked away at shone below them in an array of city lights.
