First Meeting - Geishaverse 1

It had been a long journey.  First a long trip across water, and then shoved on to a train.  Wheeljack and his fellow traveler Perceptor didn't get to stand on solid ground for more than a half hour at a time.  But now they reached a final city in the island nation, the train behind him hissing as it released the built up steam.

Out here, the air was still fresh, the citizens wanting to use the clean energy of water run off from the nearby mountains and rivers, trying to avoid coal as much as possible and he and Perceptor where there to research better ways to figure that out.

Wheeljack blinked as he heard Perceptor shout to the workers unloading the equipment they brought.  Some of it was delicate but those were never left out of Perceptor's sight the entire time.  With a chuckle, he turned to tell the his friend to relax, his earfins flashing a cheerful blue, but that stopped when he caught sight of him.

A beautiful, blue framed figure, dressed in the finest kimono he has ever seen in his short time in the nation.  Small pretty red flowers decorated the blue helm, a contrast in color that caught his attention while other decorations tinkled with movement giving off a beautiful sound.

The engineer was baffled as to why such a beauty would be found in a dirty place like the train station when the answer to his question climbed off of the train, two more equally striking figures dressed in white and gold kimonos greeted the blue one, happiness in their faces as the blue one handed over two parasols and opening them, shading themselves.

Wheeljack wanted to follow them, wanting to ask the blue one his name, but his job kept him there…

His intakes hitched as the blue one paused, turning where he was and his optics met Wheeljack's in what seemed to be an endless moment until the blue one's companions called out to him, prompting him to hurry, giving Wheeljack the opportunity to watch how gracefully he moved.

Turning to get to his own work, Wheeljack vowed to visit every tea house in this small city to find that pretty blue geisha and see him one more time.
