Cira got to the top moments later after Jazz walked around the rim fully. Grinning, she sat down carefully, gripping onto the metal either side of herself firmly. Her body was facing into the center of the smokestack. She peered down into it before hanging upside down by her legs. Then when she finished getting a rush of blood to her face, she took a break for a moment to re-situate herself before going into a handstand. Meanwhile, KITT was silently panicking watching the two of them. He didn't need to pester them via his holoform, but he would still worry obviously. He hadn't seen Cira do that sort of thing from these kinds of heights in a long time. <"Please be careful you two."> he pleaded in his calm tone through her wrist watch communicator so Jazz could hear as well.

Jazz looked over at her with a smile, though he didn't say anything. Though when KI3T called out for them to be careful, Jazz couldn't help but laugh. "Aw, c'mon KI3T, where's your sense of adventure?" he called back and stood up on the rim of the smoke stack. He then bent down, planting one hand next to Cira, then literally cartwheeling over her one handed, planting his feet easily on the other side of her. He then went into an impromptu dance routine on the spot, then did a no handed cartwheel with a half twist as if to prove a point, landing with his arms wide. "Tah Dah!" he called out happily. He was enjoying himself probably a bit more than he expected he would, though he chalked that up to the fact that he had company to share the fun with, even if one of them seemed to be worrying a little too much.

"Heh KITT was always a cautious one." Cira grinned as she watched Jazz, laughing a little as she sat on the edge. She started doing a little beat-boxing as he danced. "Damn dude, my balance is good, but I'm afraid to try anything THIS high up." she commented. "Falling from this height would be survivable fer you but nooot fer me." she shook her head, looking down. {"Oh how I wish I had a magnificent robot body like yers..."} Cira thought with a sigh, hiding all wistfulness from her face as her amused smirk lingered.

Jazz looked at her, crouching down and extending his limpet claw like hand to her. "Then if you fall, I'll catch you." he replied, his smile softening as he looked at her. He felt a flicker in his Spark as he looked at her, his fingertips so close to touching her arm, but not quite, though his hand was within easy reach of hers should she choose to reach out to him. He liked humans, he liked their music, their cultural eccentricities, their sense of humor, their brave spirit, and he found himself drawn to them because of it.
As he looked at her, he began to feel a small tug on his Spark, faint, but it was there. His smile went from soft to shy as he looked away, casting his gaze downward and letting his hand come to rest on the concrete rim next to her, never actually touching her but still within her reach. He then looked over at KI3T with a tilt of his head and a smirk growing on his face. "He just worries too much. I'm fast and agile enough. Nothing bad will happen up here." he offered in a confident tone as he straightened himself a bit, his other forearm resting on his knee as he looked out to the horizon, trying to cover up what he felt, thinking himself foolish for such feelings.

Cira smiled, taking his words to heart -- before that more gentle smile turned into a grin anyway. She shifted into a crouch and then shifted again into a handstand. Humming a random tune, she balanced on one hand then switched her weight to the other before cartwheeling away from Jazz. Doing a shuffle with her feet - with rather extreme precision, she moved along the rim, her arms moving about as she used the Tektonic style dance. It was incredibly hard staying mobile up here with little-to-no room to do spins and flips. It was even hard to do the step dancing she knew so well up here without feeling like she would fall. She started doing a hybrid remix of sorts of two different types of shuffles- the moonwalk and the Melbourne shuffle as she moved about the rim, and she felt her heart racing from doing that alone!

Jazz remained crouched there, slowly turning as he watched her move around the rim of the smoke stack, his Spark fluttering in his chest. There was something stunningly beautiful about her, the way she moved, her grace and the precision with which she moved around the smoke stack. He lowered his gaze a bit as he thought of himself and what he was compared to Cira then. {"But, she's human, I'm a bot. It's not possible for anything between us but friendship. It's just not possible... is it?"} he thought to himself inwardly, then looked to her again, his expression pensive. He then vented softly and shook his head slightly. "No, it's just not possible." he whispered softly to himself, then added in his thoughts, {"But a mech can dream... sometimes... can't I?..."} He looked at her then, and within his processor he saw her as a bot like him. For a moment, he began to hope, but then the vision faded and she remained human. Inwardly he questioned himself, his Spark, Primus himself, why he was being so tormented, yet no answer came to him.

Cira shifted into a handstand once she got closer to Jazz again and then swayed lightly onto her left hand before letting her body drop partway into the inside of the smokestack, her feet catching onto the edge as she held on with one arm. She brought her other hand up then pushed herself up with a bounce into a sitting position, her hands securing herself at either side as she settled. "Now that's something I don't do every day, random dancing on a smokestack." she chuckled and gazed up at him. "I must say, is it bad I envy the power and durability of your bodies? It's all so fascinating...god I wish I could be more like your kind...I've had dreams of being one ever since I started working with NEST from time to time." that comment right there was something she hadn't told KITT or Mike. She'd told them both how awesome she thought the Cybertronians were and how bad ass it would be to have their weapons, but nothing more than that. But now it all made sense to KITT, she really did find them fascinating.

Jazz was pulled from his thoughts and he looked at her in surprise. He thought over what she said and his Spark nearly stopped. Did she really say that she wanted to become an Autobot? When he found his voice again, it was barely more than a whisper. "You mean... you actually want to be Cybertronian? You want to become an Autobot? Like me?" he asked her softly, almost in disbelief. "Is that even possible?" he asked out loud, one hand reaching out to her without realizing what he was actually doing.

Cira didn't move from the large metallic hand reaching out to her. She was gazing at the long drop down before looking back to him. "Yeah...well I don't know if it is, but I'd like to if it were. I often find that I'm jealous of the power and versatility you Bots possess. We're all different I know...but still, it amazes me nonetheless. Plus I've always been fascinated by vehicles 'n technology. It's probably something that will just stay in mah dreams. Can't have everything." she explained as if it weren't a big deal. She tended to do that as a way of staying professional and to avoid being emotional. These ideals were just thoughts that surfaced her mind periodically since working with the Autobots and KITT. They were nothing to make a big deal over for now.

Jazz listened to her, and with her non-committal tone, he looked away slightly, closing his hand without touching her before resting it on the concrete rim of the tower again. He vented softly then, thinking of possibilities. "Well, if it could be done, Wheeljack n Ratchet could make it happen." he offered then, looking back to her, then looking down again. He couldn't understand the things he was feeling and it was really starting to bother him, yet he wouldn't dare reveal them to her or anyone else for fear of what they would think of him, especially Cira. He had only just met her and didn't want her thinking of him in any kind of negative way. The very idea of that made him wince slightly and to cover it he turned and stood up, stretching his frame trying to look casual and cover up how nervous he really was.

"Really? Then maybe someday it won't be just a dream..." Cira replied hopefully, her dark eyes shining a bit. "I mean it's not like I don't live my life to the fullest as it is still, but yeah...if I had the option, I'd so do it." she hung off the side by her legs out of boredom, staring down at the long drop. "Hey wanna get outta here n go somewhere else? Hm and maybe I could take your holoform flying sometime? What say you to that?" Cira offered randomly before lifting herself back up.

Jazz looked at her as a grin widened on his face. "Flying? Sure! I'd go fer that." he replied. "I mean, I may be a grounder, but I ain't like ole grumpy guns Ironhide, he hates flying, but I find it pretty fun to go flying sometimes. Heck, I love driving fast as it is, flying can't be much different than that, right?" he added, still grinning. He then looked over at KI3T, who was probably still half panicking watching them up there and chuckled. "Yeah, maybe we should get down offa here before your partner over there blows a fuse." he offered and looked at the pipes along the side of the smokestack. "You wanna find your own way down or you wanna go for a ride with the silver bullet?" he asked cheerfully with a tilt of his head as he looked back to Cira.

"It'll be faster if I accept." Cira replied with a smile. She hadn't had a chance to see from a Cybertronian's perspective before, and a ride on the shoulders was certainly one way to do that. She made a note to herself to set up a block of time to take Jazz flying later in the week - she was rather excited about taking a Cybertronian for a ride now. "Luckily KITT's used ta me doin' all sorts of crazy stuff like this, so a few more seconds wont' stress him out much more."

Jazz nodded and crouched down, offering his hand to her. "Well, climb on up then n we'll get outa here." he offered cheerfully. "Just make sure you hold onto me real tight, it's gonna be a fun ride." he added with a chuckle as he glanced down, planning his route to the ground to make it fun for Cira without being too vigorous for her to keep hold of him.

"Right-o!" Cira smiled cheerfully and climbed up the silver Bot after he crouched down, who was thankfully on the small side. Thus the task wouldn't be too challenging for her. "Ready when you are. This should be fun! HI KITT!" Cira hollered down to her partner, friend, and essentially the brother she never had - knowing that their descent would be a bit of a risky one. However, it was certainly similar to things KITT had seen before from her and Mike, so the AI was able to relax a little after Jazz would start making his way down with little-to-no apparent struggle.
