o23 ★ THANKSGIVING? NO THANKS.

[ November is drawing to a close, and your local Autobot is in a grim mood. He's been keeping himself busy as a distraction, but it's not doing much to help.

Even so, he can be found doing one of three things:

A. Doing yardwork! He can be found in the front yard at 1249 Williams Road, raking leaves, tending to the garden. You might even catch him dragging a trashcan to the curb, the contents of which smell a bit like Thanksgiving dinner.

B. He seems to have tired of yardwork, and is trying to use electromagnetism on the rake and other various gardening tools- spade and what have you. He floats the tool up in the air and tosses it across the yard, trying to get it to land in a pile of leaves. His aim is improving, but sometimes he misses really, really badly- especially with the rake because it's more wood than metal. You might want to watch your head.

C. Going for a walk. Headed particularly towards Cunningham Lane, but he's taking his time about it. He's also deep in thought, so he's not exactly looking where he's going. ]

[After a few moments of the obligatory stars spinning around his head, Lucas shakes his head and focuses his eyes.]

. . . Oh. Hi, Mr. Jolt. . . . I think I hit my head on something.

You threw . . . What?

[W-Why would you do that? He doesn't ask, but the expression on his face makes that pretty plain.]

[After a few moments of blinking, Lucas smiles faintly and sits up.]

Well. It's alright. Since it was an accident and all . . .

[Putting a hand up to his head, he releases a small burst of PSI to soothe the bump that was beginning to form.]

What's electromagnetism, again?

[OK, electricity is the controlled lightning that makes machines work and metal is metal and electromagnetic fields are, um.]

. . . Oh.

[Clear as mud.]

So it's just something you can do because you can make lightning, right?

. . . Ohhh. I understand now. . . . Can I see?

I can stand really far back if that will help.
