You were a human on the lost light, didn’t matter how you got there as you’d been there almost as long as the majority of bots. During this time you’d gotten pretty close with a couple of bots; Whirl being one. It was obvious that Whirl had a couple of.. built in biases against you for awhile. But, people had a couple built in biases against him too.

Now: You had gotten tossed around by a much bigger mech while in Swerves bar, he was yelling something about not wanting to share his space with a human. You were on the ground when you heard the whirring of a weapon shifting out of the bots arm. He pointed it right at you before anyone was able to intervene. Swerve was first to speak up, yelling about how weapons arent allowed in his bar. Then Magnus stood, taking control of the situation. You were stuck, shaking on the floor when you saw Whirl approach. The bot wasn’t good at showing any emotion but anger, and he was clearly showing it now. His optic was locked on the bot who had attacked you, but you distract him by calling out; your voice was shaky, not wanting to cry infront of so many bots. Whirl immediately snapped out of it, turning to aid to you instead. He scooped you up, holding you close to him before shooting a warning glance at the bot again. He turns, deciding to bring you back to his habsuite, not wanting to be vulnerable in public.
