Just because Optimus and Primal are from the same reality (possibly) and forged a bond in battle, does not mean they are always in each other's company. Both of them have separate things to attend to, be it legitimate concerns or busy work they've given themselves. The type of mechs they are, they don't like to be idle. No matter what.

It's been a few weeks since Primal has been about, as especially after the Hunt, he's had a lot of both legitimate concerns and busy work. He's only been checking in every now and then, as he knows Optimus worries for any of his compatriots if it's been a while since their comm was active. Rightly so; he understands and buries the same feelings.

Now, though, he's in one of the rooms they usually go to when they meet up, for whatever reason. He mentally calls it their space, and has come here for comfort. ...To no success. It has not eased the issues in his mind or the ache in his chest both from the Matrix and from wanting Airazor around to seek comfort and advice from.

He's sitting on one of the tables, as he was finding the chairs too uncomfortable, idly flicking through a datapad. He can't concentrate on anything on it, or anything off it, and he's starting to get a little agitated about how he can't do the work he's trying to do because he keeps rereading the same sentences over and over and over and over again.
