I'm going to assume you're refusing to give a sitrep because I'm an Autobot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: -_- Yes. *Ha, like he'd tell a Decepticon either*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: So I'll just call in a Decepticon. *local* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;White Noise, report to medbay.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; But we will have a report.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *He doesn't want to say he got his Elite, tattoo'd ass handed to him 8D*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *do I look like a give a flying fig what he wants? I want a report, and I'm the one with Teh Proeb*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *... OOH. OOH. CALL ME IN WHEN YOU PROEB HIM. I WANT TO BE THERE*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: Why does it matter?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;White Noise&lt;/b&gt;: *stands up, and proceeds to medbay* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;amp;&amp;amp;Acknowledged.&amp;amp;&amp;amp;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Surely you've been an officer long enough to know all medical files are processed alongside the sitrep. *pause* Haven't you?-3-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *...clearly you've never been treated by Scalpel…*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Scoffs* You'd be better off questioning Decepticon medical protocols than the length of my career.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Given your lack of cooperation, I'm questioning both. *nods to WN* The Seeker would like to give his report to a Decepticon medic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: I didn't say that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *Put it in your report that he got his ass whupped by Chiro. For teh lulz.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Then give your sitrep already and be done with it. I don't have the inclination to play chase the loophole with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: I'm not going to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Then I don't have one damn reason to keep you awake. Certainly not to listen to your dulcet tones *gets his IoD* I apologize for the summons, White Noise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;White Noise&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;amp;&amp;amp;Your apology is noted.&amp;amp;&amp;amp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Snarls at him, but there's the line* Fine! No need to get stab-happy, Autobot. I'll talk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Then by all means, do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: I was attacked by Necroflux.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *huffs* Any physical and weapons data you can provide?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Relates what he recalls*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *takes careful note of it* Well, for one, you should know you're grounded for a while; for another, you still need a shot. I don't need you wrecking your repairs because of the Flyer's Edge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Hisses* Don't you drug me further.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: -.o The hissing is unimpressive. And do you really want to spend the full term of your recovery restrained and staring at the ceiling while fully lucid? I'm not going to knock you out unless it's what you -want-, Starscream. I'm offering a partial tranquilizer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: No. I don't want it. *Needs to be lucid, even if it drives him batty*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Fine. But one outburst, one complaint, out of you, and there'll be no more. I'll ensure that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: Fine. Whatever. I'll be good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *snorts, unimpressed* You had major structural damage. Or do you also want to obviate the painkillers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Gives him a deeply unimpressed look* The painkillers can stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Noted. *goes back to his chair*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Stares holes in the ceiling* ... I don't recall getting a neck injury. What did you do to me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *gets a datapad to read* Stabbed you with a scalpel in an attempt to fix your vox.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: Ha. -_- *Wants to leave, wants to go, does not like this, not at all*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: I regret to inform you the attempt failed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: You're not the first to fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: I don't doubt it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Lies there fairly passively, just staring at the ceiling, mind racing, and absently flexing and clenching a foot talon*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *.... eyes that foot askance* Something on your processor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;White Noise&lt;/b&gt;: *as is in medbay now, sets about running data through one of the consoles*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: No. *Liiiiies*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *huffs and goes back to reading*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Good. Leave me alone*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *if only I could. But I'm your medic, you pain in my processor*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *No, you are my jailer*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *gee, I wonder why it's come down to that?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Because I made a mistake, and apparently didn't do enough good in this world to die properly. So now I have to suffer*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *now if only it were as simple as that, and you hadn't dragged two of my staff down with you into this mess...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *I haven't touched your medics!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *don't get loop-holy on me. You know, probably as well as I, you don't need to touch someone to severely muck up their lives and their minds*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Fine. -_- But they are unintended casualties of a simple LESSON. I didn't even kill the Saleen, or break him permanently*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *... a lesson? A lesson to what -purpose-? In case you haven't noticed, no one, not even the Saleen, gives half a damn anymore about your War and your backstabbing. The only one who still thinks it's important is you. And look where that idiocy landed you*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Has figured that out, thank you. And it was a lesson to leave me alone. Whether or not the War is over, I will not tolerate him harassing me*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *and alone you surely are, except for me. Congratulations*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *And why are you here, medic? Things would be so much neater if you had just left me to die*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *because I'm a -medic-. Here in a medbay, it is not for me to judge a mech. It is my job, my duty, to give him succor, and to keep him from the Pit or the Well of All-Sparks as best I can. The sorting is left to Primus*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *So you'll torment me instead. Goody*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *I will do my best to keep you alive.

That is absurd Chiro. War has run our numbers down enough on its own. We don’t need to punish each other like that anymore. *Wouldn’t be able to do that to the Chin anyhow x.x*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *...And is ignoring Chiro's little outburst… chalks it up to stress*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: .................... *ahhh, silence* *sets a few IV drips*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: So we allow a mech to live who will be responsible for the deaths of who knows how many others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Pats Chiro quietly* That can be said for any of us who have been in the frontlines, Chiro. I've killed probably, as many as he ever has in the course of the wars....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *shudders*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Siiighs calmly.

I can not look the other way on what you did.....but I have to say I am pretty damn impressed you had it in you Chiro &amp;gt;__&amp;gt; &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *whuffffffffffs.... and fires his official report to the bossbots -___- Oh, is enjoying this one, is. Like a walk on a smelter at full blast*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *gets up rather quickly* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I never wanted to &lt;i&gt;have to have it in me!&lt;/i&gt; I'm going to base.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *and slinks out the door if he's allowed to do exactly as he said*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Quit congratulating him for having the gall to murder an unconscious mech!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wildfire&lt;/b&gt;: *In the words of the Jenna Jameson, &lt;i&gt;come again??&lt;/i&gt; *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Sighs and rises to more or less escort Chiro back to base to further deal with all this malarkey*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *............. re-sends his report to WF. AND IT'S NOT APRIL 1ST*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wildfire&lt;/b&gt;: *.....................well this is all just BLOODY GREAT. -_- *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *....is outside and tries to figure out WTF IS GOING ON GOD DAMNIT*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *oh, sure, LEAVE ME THE SALEEN, why don't you? -____&amp;lt;;;;;;;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *...have fun 8D *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wildfire&lt;/b&gt;: *You're the one with IOD's!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *... will put a prostate in you. Just so he has to EXAMINE it*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *IS GOING TO START GETTING VIOLENT.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *moves to the door, without opening it* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Barricade.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;What.

You likely have company incoming.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *....Siiiighs* *Ratchet* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;…Barricade?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Yup.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Great* *Chiro* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Barricade is coming after you. So we need to either get a move on or wait for him....&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *Kind of wagers Barricade will be a pest until he gets to speak to Chiro anyhow...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;He's not coming to be a pain. But... it's your decision whether I get to speak to him or not face to face.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Kinda figured that much about Cade.* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;As a human would say... consider it your one phone call. We can wait if you wish&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *pulls over onto the side of the road*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Pulls over a distance off... still giving Chiro room but supervising closely*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *the conversation that ensues is an unhappy one, but entirely, entirely over encrypted comm. Or something. As they're speaking but there aren't any signal pings going from one to the other*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Watches carefully... not liking the encrypted comm. bit.... but ...really didn’t have a solid reason to not let Barricade see Chiro. Hopefully this won’t come back to bite him*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *sighs as he watches Cade disappears down the road* *and continues on towards the base*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Roth Red&lt;/b&gt;: *curled up so far under Stress' desk, it'd take dynamite to get him out*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *really wishes that damn Rover was around*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *... you and me both. For ONCE*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *comes back and spins out of transformation, leaping onto the roof to... gargoyle the night away and think*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *sends out a brief ping... dammit, femme &amp;gt;_&amp;lt; Ah, well......*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *triiiiiies, damnit, tries to get in contact with the Rover. And will continue to try until he browns out his comm. systems.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Perseco&lt;/b&gt;: *was rebuffed and/or rejected. Is not feeling up to her duties at the moment*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *as long as you let me know you're alright out there soon &amp;gt;_o*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Erebos&lt;/b&gt;: *she left me here all alone TTTT_TTTT *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *-__- If you can be trusted not to kill my patients, I'll take your company* &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Splint&lt;/b&gt;: *Still just quietly... putzing around... doing this or that and keeping out of the drama...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Still a Brick*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Splint&lt;/b&gt;: *......Tempted to dust the Brick just to be snarky. But behaves and goes about wiping down the bar counter now that the floor of the main room has been mopped*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *... Could probably use a solid dusting*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Splint&lt;/b&gt;: *...that you could.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Course, on that tack, needs a bath. &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Getting mauled by Barricade was messy*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Splint&lt;/b&gt;: *.........I bet* *...Juuuust wiping down that bar counter.

Swings around, cloaked, and those grunts better be giving a good account of themselves*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *The EMP might interfere with that. 8D* *Fly, my missiles! Kill 'em all!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *well, missile fire is never good* *sinks lower, coming under the horizon line to get a visual on what the Pit is going on*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Necrogrunts&lt;/b&gt;: *asdfasdfasgASDFARSSHOOT BACK*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Like a vast, predatory bird, harrying the grunts, making use of his liberal sprinkling of missiles tactic, more interested in shooing them away to grab what he's after and escaping, than straight up fighting*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *.... interesting. And painted like a barbarian* *keeps low, circling, using the mayhem of sound and violence to remain undetected* *Attuli* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Lady, the caravan is under attack. Direct visual feed coming to you. Do your standing orders change?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Hey, these tats is sexy!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *you're painted up like a primitive.

And those whorling designs make exceptional bull's-eyes, though is, as ordered, trying to ground, not outrightly kill*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Arugh!* *Flips 180 midair, transforming to open fire on him with both his remaining missiles (No matter he's running out) and Vulcan*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *fires at those missiles, spiraling to avoid what he can of the Vulcan's damage but gladly accepting what he must take, transforming and trying to ram the infidel*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *&lt;span style="font-size: 150%"&gt;SCREECHES&lt;/span&gt; as he's rammed, and is clawing and slashing at, slaggit!!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attuli&lt;/b&gt;: *Whut a lov'ly singin' voice x.x *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *doesn't stay past the first impact, hissing at the damage and trying to put a double kick into the larger Seeker, as much to throw him off-balance and down as to give himself distance to bring his Pu Dao out and swing it in a wide, crescent slash, trying to catch the ailerons*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Oof! And oh, that's not good* *Tries to dodge, but is thrown off enough to lose a wing tip to the slash... Not good, shouldn't even be able to fly normally, having even less wing is just making it worse!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *has noooo intention of letting the bigger Seeker get hold of him, so just harries him, Pu-Dao swinging at ailerons, wingtips, turbines, any target, however minor, that will rob him of flight one nickel, dime and penny at a time*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Slashes at that damn weapon with his wrist blades, still trying to put some bullets in him. &amp;gt;&amp;lt; But motions are getting sloppier the more of his wings go missing*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *ducking, taking the damage where he must, singed and scorched, and lets the impact of those wristblades on the lance swing him away without effort on his part, firing one of his missiles at the Seeker as he turns that mid-air tumble into a dart away*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *That's going to smart* *&lt;span style="font-size: 150%"&gt;SHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLS&lt;/span&gt; at the missile impact, and falls from the sky, though it's still not entirely uncontrolled, and definitely not without firing his last missile as he goes down*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *............................. my audios @_@*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attuli&lt;/b&gt;: *I heard dat from over heeyah*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *I heard that from HERE. o.O;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *..... Lady, do I really have to engage that.... I don't know what he is, but he cannot be mechly!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *&amp;gt;&amp;lt; Shut up* *Lands heavily*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *shoots at the missile and dives after him through the resulting fireball, coming out streaked and singed, but perfectly battle-ready* *oh, and the remaining grunts probably REALLY want a piece out of your hide right about now, thief*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Snarls at the lot of them, armor bristled, and happily lays down Vulcan fire on them, but this is very much sucky... VERY much the suck*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *drops to a crouching landing, smoking and welted and apparently minding it not one bit, appraising the larger Seeker like a parts basket, letting the grunts beat on him and get blown to smithereens* *Attuli* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;He is grounded, Lady.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *&amp;gt;&amp;lt; Hasn't taken a beating like this in a long time.

But fires. Fires at everything and anything, shaking violently to try and dislodge that frigging femme!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *bury him. BURY THE INFIDEL. TEAR HIS ARMOR OFF AND BARE HIS SPARK FOR THE GLORY OF OUR LADY AND THE NECROFLUX* *swings the Pu-Dao counter to Attuli's position, trying to slash in short arcs at the heretic, never mind the gaping injury on his side* *is a fanatic, and will. not. be stopped*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attuli&lt;/b&gt;: *on his back and aiming to maim those wings further*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *KEEEEEEEEEENS, and knows he's overmatched, and that this is not going to end well. &amp;gt;&amp;lt; Tries to contact Barricade, has to make sure the hatchlings are taken care of...* *SNAPS at that pole arm with his fairly formidable teeth, falling backwards onto his back*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *snarls, letting go the lance and lunging at him with talons and a snarl, because if he fell on the Lady he will dig her out through. his. chest.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attuli&lt;/b&gt;: *leapt off onto a grunt without a scratch*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *FUCK!* *Claws at him with the hand left to him and bites, but cannae do so much more to save hisself now*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *what was that? Bit busy in the bar, squealer*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *-_- Dying. Make sure my babies are fed*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *....You're dying? FUCK YES!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Codex&lt;/b&gt;: *SHRILLS (though cannae compare to the King of Shrill, thank goodness) at the biting, clawing at the chest armor.... You know what, FUKKIT. Deploys his cannon again and FIRES at the chest armor with it instead, will DIG. DIG. DIGGETY. DIG*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Fuck you very much* *SHRIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKS, and bats at him, nooo, get out of there!* *Writhes as best he can, trying to get away, something, anything…*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Attuli&lt;/b&gt;: *Standing back and watching*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *this is what comes of makin' enemies 'stead of friends, bub.

You ought to ask the Dragon about it. *awww, whazzamatta, bub?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Knows there's a white felt cowboy hat in his chest... but can't get it*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: Okay *ninjas back to the bar counter* You can magic up more candy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: What, you mean like this? *flicks his digits and rolls another piece of candy over his knuckles for a moment, before hiding it in his closed fist* I dunno, maybe 83 *now that's a damn shame, bub. Everyone looks better with a cowboy hat c]:3*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: Yes. And I like that trick *I could help get it. But you would have to ask oo*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Well... *claps his hands together, then separate, both fisted* If you can tell me which one it's at, it's yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Naw, you might get bit by a cranky Saleen...* *&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Caaarefully reaches into his chest, just a little...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *won't if he's sleepin', will you now?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *prowls closer, stuuudying both of those hands*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *holds 'em out for him, neither any different than the other except for scrapes and scuff marks, the scars of life*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *... And pulls out the hat! Victoly!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *tries a scan to try and pinpoint where the candy might be, if that works. Am a tricky brat :3*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chuckles at the flicker of the scan, has a piece of candy on -each- hand XD*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Inspects the white hat, and sets it on the bar counter, then gets back to being sore statuary*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: A trick, you have one in both hands! *eyes him, but not disapproving, no* *and sees that unguarded hat*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chuckles, offering both, palms open* Ain't never said I didn't. Only said you could have 'em if you could tell me which one it was at. *gives the hat a brief, amused look, then one at the battered Brick*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *You'd be more amused if you knew what it said inside that hat*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *... now that's just an invitation, bub*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: Thank you *snatches them OwwO* And I did&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Yessir, it certainly is*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: And so you get 'em. *brushes his hands, 'magically' producing a stick of candy, breaking off a piece and nomming it, and leaving it on the counter near the Brick 83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Shifts enough to grab that candy, and put it in his chest*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *nibbles one piece of the candy. Then squawks as the other piece gets snatched away by a blurr of a raven drone* &amp;gt;.&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Easy come, easy go, huh? Afternoon, little sister.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: She does that a lot *like he finds the Dragon's candy stashes*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Penna&lt;/b&gt;: Hey there! *tumbles, then seems to vanish somewhere in the rafters*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Maybe she's learnin' it from someone else, hm? :3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: I don't know *innocent!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: ... You don't do that very well, bub X3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: I don't do what well? oo *83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Penna&lt;/b&gt;: *tumbles back down, finding herself a perch at Morpho's shoulder*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Not one bit. *piece of candy for you, thief, and tries to catch that beak* Ain't you got somethin' that don't belong to you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Penna&lt;/b&gt;: *nips lightly at those fingers* Is enough for all?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *amused* Ain't the same. Ain't yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Penna&lt;/b&gt;: *shakes a wing, then catches the piece of candy falling with her foot*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *chirrrrrr*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Got to give a good example, little sister. All of us, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Penna&lt;/b&gt;: *peers with one optic* Yeeeees. Take word for it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Oh, it ain't me you gotta convince XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *moves to sit cross-legged on the counter once he's free of drones and sparklings, and gives a look at that hat* Fancy, bub.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Not as fancy as yours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Mine? Well, Pit, bub, this one's a Bar present *takes his hat and brushes it delicately* Where'd yours come from... other than your chest? XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Not so sure about that... I don't believe the tag inside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: ... The tag? What's it say?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Says it's Ratchet's hat. *Because my Mun is horrible*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: ......... *My Mun is dying. This is never reassuring XD;* Did you ask him?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Aaalmost looks panicked O_O* No.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Aw, why not, bub?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: ... If it's not his, it might be offensive. If it is, he'll want to know how I got it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: ... There ain't a lot of mechs would get offended just because you ask 'em if a hat's their property, bub. And as for how you got it... how did you get it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: It was in my chest. That's all I know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: .... That's just got its own magic, don't it XD *have a stick of candy for being a patient creature*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Yup... It's gonna get me in trouble. *And in his chest it goes*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: It hasn't already? You're a luckier mech than I thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: That's... not entirely accurate. I shoulda said more trouble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: .... Oh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Yup. *As the signs of his getting beat could testify*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *you coulda got that from anyone and any reason, bub* ... Still got all your limbs?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *True* At the moment, yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Well, not too much trouble, then. Been stayin' around a few days now, bub?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Nods* Yup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Don't suppose you could tell me who you've seen comin' and goin'?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: Yessir. A whole list, or anyone in particular?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: You can toss names at me and we'll go from there, how's that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: I have seen *And lists everyone he can, for the last four days or so, in no order, but never repeating*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *listenin', waitin'. Isn't here often enough to know if things ought to be as they are or not. But it goin' back four days and not having the name he's lookin' for don't sit well with him* Thanks, bub. *hands him two sticks o' candy*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Puts them in his chest. Candy must go in the chest* Not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sideswipe&lt;/b&gt;: *walks in at about the same time Perseco does, and gives her a lingering look as she walks to the back*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *tips his hat at the doc, and eyes Trouble over there briefly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Perseco&lt;/b&gt;: *nods at Morpho on her way to her room*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sideswipe&lt;/b&gt;: Quiet again in here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Ain't that a good thing? *sets to filling up the bowls of crunchies*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sideswipe&lt;/b&gt;: I wasn't designed to be quiet, if you get my drift. *sits at the counter*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Hadn't noticed that one bit, bub. *sets the crunchies, gets his Box o' Wonders and sets to rummaging in it*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *Briiick* *And don't mind the white felt cowboy hat on the counter*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sideswipe&lt;/b&gt;: ...........*looks at the hat*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Reinforcements&lt;/b&gt;: *...

And...I haven't been with a mech in so long, that I'm growing quite...desperate as I may be patient, but there is only so much a femme of my making &lt;i&gt;can take&lt;/i&gt; and I haven't been 'faced properly since my medical training began. o_o I'm tempted to jump any Mech I set optics on if it wasn't so crass. So, what do you think?

It would take a blind, deaf and dumb mech to ignore your appeal, and I can honestly say I'm none of those things. But that doesn't mean I consider interactions with yourself, or indeed, anyone I could ever become interested in, casual enough to simply interface with them without attaching some weight and meaning to the act. You -are- attractive, Perseco, your mind does that for you. You're also beautiful. But I am not free as you are to pursue a mech or femme that catches my fancy. You know that, perhaps better than anyone. You're not just a friend, of few I can have.

So, a sparkling in a grown body. *Soft sigh*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Saprophyte&lt;/b&gt;: *settles back in the rafters, thinking to herself*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: To a degree. A sparkling has a drive to take in information. As they grow, that drive slows down to our more normal, adult levels. He should have been at that stage now, but isn't. The hope is to rouse his learning protocols back to that sparkling-like learning level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Plotting. Evil plots. For his babies*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: He is an eager soul. *Strokes his head* He will learn, I am certain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *makes a low sound at the contact*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Aye, my wolf-cub, you know me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Anyways. He's all yours. *steps back* There are temporary locks on his flight mechanisms. I suggest you keep them there until he's... a little more aware.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Aye.

There is no need to run. *Tries to bring him back up* He suffered a rather catastrophic virus. It destroyed much of his mind. He is like a slow-learning sparkling again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Now that is fascinating...* A virus? Now how would that happen?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *doesn't want to stay. None of this is good.

The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun/ The frumious Bandersnatch!&amp;quot;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *just likes the sounds, listening*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Piran&lt;/b&gt;: *bats on of those small cubes at the bar counter lightly.

Vorpal Song, from a vorpal blade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Piran&lt;/b&gt;: *nibbles the cube open, keeping an optic at the Seeker on the other couch*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Appears to be lost in thought*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Piran&lt;/b&gt;: *that's when you might want to beware, knows that*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Smart drone*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Piran&lt;/b&gt;: *It's common sense*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *blinks slowly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: &lt;i&gt;And as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *relaxes a little against him, listening*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *That poem makes my processor hurt*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: &lt;i&gt;One, two! One, two! and through and through The&lt;/i&gt; vorpal &lt;i&gt;blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head/ He went galumphing back.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *trills a little again at the mention of his name*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Very good, lad! *Chirrrs happily*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vorpal&lt;/b&gt;: *blinks at the sound, though.... it seems a good sound*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: &lt;i&gt;&amp;quot;And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh!

I &lt;i&gt;need&lt;/i&gt; you to be very, very careful with your back, Stress, unfortunately for you, for two full weeks. No lifting bodies, no hunching for hours, and if it starts hurting.. Lie. Down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: ............ Aye aye, sir *sighs* 'Tis gauny be a hard two weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: I know. You could really use a joint overhaul, you know. =_=; I could replace all the big motor system joints easily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: That would take too long! What if'n there's an emergency?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: There are &lt;i&gt;eight&lt;/i&gt; other medics available, Stress Proof. At least.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *blows a low breath* Aye an' I know, I know. But we've all been doubled up at one time or another, and it frets me... Could ye nae do the overhauls in stages?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: I could, but it would take you just as long to recover from one overhaul as it would if I sat down and did the vast majority of them. *sighs softly* Your hips need replacing, badly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *whuffs* ...... I know, Chiro. Me shoulders?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: They look like a melon if you threw it in a grinder for a few seconds. o.&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: ...... &amp;gt;_&amp;lt; 'Tis me shield. 'Tis a lot of weight!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: Aye and I know that. It causes stress on the joints over a long period of time and CLEARLY they haven't been replaced in a very. long. while.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: .... &amp;gt;_&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: …tell me they aren't your originals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: .......................... &amp;lt;_&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: ....*SMAKKA*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *SQUEAKAH!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *Ratch* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Chiro to Ratchet, got a question for you.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *onlines one optic from his chair* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Go ahead.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Did you know that some if not most of our dear Stress Proof's joints are his &lt;i&gt;originals&lt;/i&gt;? 8D?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;......................... Do tell?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;His shoulders, likely his hips... I'd have to do more examinations but I'm 90% certain everything is original aside from his back and his left ankle. 8D&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *makes a low, rumbling sound -__-* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;For the love of... Your suggestion? Other than a wallop to the helm?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I was thinking a wallop to the helm and full replacements. Either at once or in stages. It's his decision.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Hrmnh.... How long would he be out?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;If I replace them all at once? *thinks for a few moments* Probably a week of bed rest and another of very light duty. But it will be the same amount of time replacing each weight-bearing joint one by one.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;And I take it you're contacting me because he's dug in his heels, or is about to.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I think he may be about to... But we will see.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Feel free to make it an order if you have to.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *offlines the optic again*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Thank you sir.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *focuses on Stress again* What would you like to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: ........ I have one matter I'd like tae take care of before doing anything else. But if'n ye think me joints need to be replaced overall.... then so they do -___-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *nods* Let me know when, and I will start working on the replacements. I want to upgrade your shoulder joints to better support that weight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *whuffs* ......

I just... I want to explore specialties a bit more... and further I want to learn more from others experiences.... I haven't decided anything yet sir.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *blinks and wants to run at the sight of Gale*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: You haven't asked anything yet, sir. Reports, please? *starts scanning Vorpal carefully*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: I found him in the woods near the Bar.

Get yourself fuel like a proper, thinking, rational MECH, not a skulking rogue* *leaves Gale to that, then, focusing on surface repairs first* I'll admit, grit and dirt is not something one usually washes off a Seeker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Aye. *Softly* He is like one new-Sparked, aye?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Oh, but skulking rogue is in these days*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *will find a reason to WING SOMETHING AT YOUR HEAD* *takes a moment to look up the Seekerlet's file* After a fashion. Physically, his growth is done. But the virus did a lot of damage to his protocols... and I do mean a lot of damage. He's... a little like a slow sparkling. His saving grace is that the learning protocol is not just undamaged, but still active. Odd, but a blessing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: *Considers this, and nods* A blessing, aye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: There is... potential there.

Oh, her again...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *stops and huffs, crossing her arms and glaring at the ground* You know...never do I have this problem. Now why is it only when I walk into this building do I have problems and second guess myself?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: *Carefully drops down to her level, joints creaking softly* Because this is an odd place, miss. For the likes of all of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *head tilllt in that manner of hers, listening* You're very large...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Not overlarge for my kind. But larger than what you are accustomed to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Anything larger than me is unaccustomed. *grins*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: *Small smile, and chuckles* Then there may be a few of your own kind that you may find disconcerting. I believe there is one human who could lose you in one of his shirts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: ...Is this the land of the giants?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *is scrubbing medbay almost compulsively and making sure everything is organized*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Indeed no. There is another woman here nearly your size.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Well, drat it. Where are they when I need them? I was getting molested last night with no help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Because she and that one have what appears to be an unspoken agreement--refusing to acknowledge that the other exists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: That's........really weird.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Why? *Offers a hand, letting it just brush her, so she knows it's there, talons politely tucked away*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *automatically starts feeling the hand, getting a mental pic* ...Goodness, you are big. And pointy like the others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: *With talons retracted, actually has very smooth, fine hands* Many Decepticons are... pointy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *it's the edges of metal that gets her* As opposed to? You know what? Never mind. I'll find out sometime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patch Work&lt;/b&gt;: *noticed the signal reading of one of the mechs and though he is inwardly terrified, must rectify his mistake &amp;gt;&amp;lt;* *leaves the medbay and slowly goes out into the bar*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Autobots, like Blue Morpho from last evening, are sleek and smooth. I am certain you will learn quickly. *Has a kind, warm tone*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Just watching the blind girl quietly while getting himself perched at the bar*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Is he actually blue?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Oh, aye, a very bright, eye-catching blue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patch Work&lt;/b&gt;: *pauses where he is and waits quietly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Mmm I miss colors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: I am sorry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *easy shrug* Don't be. I can still remember blue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Then I am glad for your memories, and for the amazing adaptability your kind has.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Doesn't everything adapt? *holds up a finger* Except Dodo birds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *......Has to look up the dodo comment.........and chuckles faintly to himself in amusement*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Adapting, surviving, and living are all different things, madam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Hmmm. Philosophical kind of guy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Galeforce&lt;/b&gt;: Indeed. *Chuckles, as if at a joke*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patch Work&lt;/b&gt;: *to Galeforce* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Sir?

But I doubt it's the first time you've deal with that kind of cutthroat business* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;*chuckles without humor* Now I'm just wonderin' why you don't wanna answer somethin' so simple...&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Ask me again, Autobot.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chucks a little more encrypting in the line. Just 'cause* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;*coolly* What'd Barricade say that brought you up short, that first night?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;He was threatening me, should I happen to take exception to anyone he cares for.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;*laughs* No slag, Sherlock. I didn't ask how he said it, I asked -what- he said.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *though the fact that brought the Air Commander up short is... interestin' already*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Would not answer.... but can't afford not to, not with the latest 'accident', costing him so much fuel* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;He said he'd reveal what I've got on the Nemesis.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Twice'll take me a day or so longer to process. Hope that's not too big an inconvenience?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I need it soon as possible.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *ponders* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I really rather not drag that much fuel out in the heat of the day unless it's not gonna -stay- there long. But alright, I'll see what I can do.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Good.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *Well, these dealings are easier than the stealing... Even if he may have to discretely take care of that loose end*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *what lack of faith, bub 83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *And I wonder why? -3-*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *you musta had some bad deals in the past, I think...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Dealt with Swindle, you tell me*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *.... well, sheesh*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Alas, could only work with what was available, and the glitch was it. And despite being a double-crossing aft, he was effective at getting the supplies*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *... you're in for a Pittuva surprise when it comes to dealin' with 'Bots, bub*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Will adapt. But will never drop his guard*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *adaptin's all it takes. Always been adapt or die*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Rises from the couch, and moves off into the back to investigate the backrooms, and possibly hole up somewhere*&lt;br /&gt;</content>

And...ack, human. Definitely rather avoid stepping on one, so moves carefully to the side*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *looks up, out of habit more than anything* Why are you up so high? *if it's construction, doesn't want a errant tool to fall on her head. And is dressed in this number &lt;a href="http://www.vintagedressesoutlet.com/hbdr002-vintage-dress.html" target="_blank"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt; * *turns around at the sense of movement*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chuckles* Just like the perspective it gives. Mornin'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *pauses, and sinks down where he stands, being less tall that way. Even if...is there something with that human's eyes?* greetings&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *Turns towards the voice, a bit confused and has lovely normal looking eyes except for the scarring underneath* Hello. I'm a bit confused, where am I? I thought this was a club.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: A bar? It's called the Crash Site *looks at Morpho. New one, you think?* *just isn't familiar with any of the humans coming here*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Oh...well, I've worked in bars too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Worked? With what? *in hindsight, he probably isn't among the most human-sounding of the mechs coming here*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *just watchin'*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *no, and that's throwing her for a loop, the sounds are varied and all off* Yes, singing...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Oh, what kind of songs? *just only starting to dig into human culture and such. Nor has he exchanged many words with humans*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Oldies, mostly. *small grin* I have a taste for the classic and vintage. Today’s modern music has no soul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Limps in slowly for a brief visit... and arches his brow at the unfamiliar human in passing*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *brow puckers in a frown at the weird sounds and vibrations....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Good day, Sir *gives a nod in Ironhide's direction* *and....* I'm not so familiar with it yet, unfortunately. Could you sing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Rumbles a moment, working his way towards one of his perching spots* ‘Lo *nods to Sky*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *blinks her unseeing eyes* Like an audition? *confussled*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Perches on a bar side seat......and watches the new human quietly....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: I have to admit that I'm curious. Haven't heard humans singing much *taps a talon against the floor* Just if you don't mind of-course&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *double blink* Humans? *steps back just a scooch at the tapping that she can feel through the floor* If...is there a stage? Some music?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Narrows an optic… just watching the human and how she moves... and responds to various sounds.... and can already tell she has some serious trouble with her eyes.... * *Frowns a moment* Careful. She can’t see you. *Is good at picking up on these things...it seems*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *holds up the folded up walking stick* Got it in one. *grins*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *whuffs faintly and settles back...just watching, hoping that pointing out her vision issue will head off unwarranted spooking*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Eh, yes *hesitates. Can show her the way there. But I dunno how you'd react to a large metal hand rather than a human one?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Sighs and shakes his head* ... Might be kind to let her know what we are, you know. Before she gets any more confused.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *would.....wonder wtf that is, actually XD; * Just tell me the general direction. I can find it myself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *that would just make him nervous* to your left. There's some furniture in your way, you need help with that?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *snaps out the walking stick to feel along* No, I think I got it. *amused*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *heads for the stage's direction, cane finding the furniture obstacles for her*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *finds the stage 8D *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *follows slowly, though keeping at some distance* I guess I should say something. Hopefully you've heard about the Cybertronians?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Um, no, I haven't. *locates the stairs up to the stage and takes them rather gracefully, feeling along with her hand along the rail* I'm afraid I don't watch any TV and it's hard to find a newspaper I can see. *amuused*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *glances over at Ironhide. You can probably tell it better than me? :3*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *exploring the stage and the.....oh, well hello there jukebox, sorry about bumping into you*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Not even mentioned by anyone you know *eh, to hell with it* *tells her. Using what he knows of-course, and what he's been told about the reveal to the whole of Earth. Probably a bit awkwardly though*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: ...that sounds entirely too fantastical to believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Maybe, but it's true. If you don't mind proof...here *extends his hand so it's easily within reach to touch* Right in front of you&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *brings up her hand at the large black on black shape and..........o.o * .....How...how do I know you aren't just holding up a large piece of metal?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *flexes and moves his hand. Joints and such might be noticeable*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Cooould be a...machine of some kind. *grins*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: What do you want, that I set you on my face?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *laughs, even if it is a leetle bit nervous* You have a face? Let me feel it. *holds up a hand*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *removes the hand, then slowly lowers his head. Odd thing with the optics and form it probably is*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Still a'lurking the rafters, watching*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *feels along carefully, frowning to herself in puzzlement*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Just watching the girl and Sky quietly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *keeps still* now, it still seems likely that it's 'just' a machine?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: I don't know...Still feels hard to believe....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: What would it take then?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *....Has to say he's a bit amused watching Sky try and convince the girl*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: I think it's up to you to prove it. I'm still skeptical. This feels nothing like a face. *grins*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *...Is half thinking the girl is stringing Sky along.....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Why would a 'robot' from space even necessarily have a face?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *partway XD but is also blind and has been fooled before!* ...I never thought of that...to eat?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Smirks and thinks he might like this girl. That and there's been a lack of screaming. Bonus that*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Even if fuel is needed, why would we eat like you do? *well.... But it's a valid argument still*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Well, I don't know. I'm not the robot from outer space...supposedly. *has to have a good sense of humor to deal with her blindness XD *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Either laugh at life, or break down into a neurotic puddle.... Or in the Topkick’s opinion... blow shit up*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Would you like me to sing? Supposed alien robot? X)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *that's something I can appreciate. Even if I'm still fairly clueless about dealing with humans* Sky Hunter. And yes, if you're still willing. In spite of wild claims&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Of course. I love to sing. *moves back to the jukebox.........and here's when she hates being blindered* ...Ahem, can someone help me find a song?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Ah... *my hands, they are not designed for picking up small things*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: .....If...you are a alien from outer space...and you have mastered that interstellar space travel...you should be able to work a simple jukebox. *grins widely*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: I can tell you the name of anything you're pointing at&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *flips through them* Tell me when I get to a song called, &amp;quot;I want to be Evil.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Drops down onto the bar counter from his rafter perch... Needs to steal some crunchies for this. Provided a certain wretch didn't already abscond with them all*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *depends on how lucky you feel today? 83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: We're not all designed for delicate work. And there it is *peers over at RF* greetings&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *-__- Do not press me, Brat. I will eat your face* Hm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *... ya could ask, bub. But ain't sayin' nothin' about them crunchies X3*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Oh good. This is my favorite song. *sets it on and stands back away from the edge, laying her can on the jukebox and sings: &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQ5VaBgXzuM&amp;amp;feature=related" target="_blank"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt; with nearly the same type of voice. Now you know what she sounds like*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firecracker&lt;/b&gt;: *You have to catch me first OwwO*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Could ask, but is not likely to. Not done being stubborn yet, durnit*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *sits back to listen. Respectfully quiet*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Listens calmly to the girl singing... Has a pleasant voice on her...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *grins and leans against the back bar*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: I like it, your voice and the song. Thank you *grins back*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Thank you. *tilts her head, hand under her chin*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ironhide&lt;/b&gt;: *Murrs faintly* Very nice...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Any more requests? They're only free today. *laughs*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Maybe a couple more then, to make use of the occasion *names a few suggestions*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: I got one. Just because it's ironic. *giggles and starts singing: &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YApNirMC9gM" target="_blank"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt; *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chuckles faintly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *will listen and chat for a while before heading back out*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Staaaaares at the blind fleshling a moment, before hopping off the counter, and stalking to the pool room*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *oblivious ^_^ *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Still wonderin' about the alien robot bit, miss?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Still not convinced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *chuckles* And what's proof you'd believe?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: You must admit it's a bit too much to swallow. Aliens? Robots even?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *&amp;gt;_- Hot tub is good on open wounds*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Well, I think the robot bit is only 'cause we're made of metal, not flesh and bone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Still fantastical.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: And hard to disprove.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Skitters out of a grate near the stage*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: If you've got any ideas I'm more than open to them. X)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Other than touch and the fact we're talkin' to you, I ain't sure what to offer, miss X3 Mind your step though. You gotta local fan come to see you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Touch is subjective, you know...*tilts her head, listening*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: So's sight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Craaawls on over to the new laydee, is a curious arm o3o*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *can sense something near but...not sure what* Well, dont' have to worry about that with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: If you crouch down a bit you ought to be level with it. It's harmless, near as we can tell. *teasing* And I ain't gonna ask you to lick me just to make sure I am what I am! XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Tugs lightly on the hem of her dress*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Lick you? *eyebrows go up* Plenty a man has said that before. *blinkblink and looks down not that it helps and...reaches out to feel what's tugging on her*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Ain't a man per se.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Oh, you're another &amp;quot;robot?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Is a robot arm! And not so pointy that feeling it'll cause accidental lacerations* *Tuugs*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Yup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *...........patting the obviously metal arm* ......&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *^___^ Is a happy arm, is*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: .....*feels a finger* o.o&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Wraps it's digits around her hand*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: Where's the rest of this one and why's he so quiet?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *amused* That's all you get. The place... This place is somethin' special. Animates things that ain't normally alive. Our arms don't run around on their own any more'n yours do, normally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: ...you're telling me this is an arm?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Aaaaaa-yup.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *A severed arm!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: A sentient severed arm moving on its own...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: Aaaaaaaa-yup XD&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: ....That's too hard to believe.

Shape's the same, you ought to know where it's meant to be attached.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *starts feeling along the arm*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Lets her hand go, to cling to the hem of her dress* *End about mid elbow-shoulder, edge jagged and rough, though no more trailing wires!*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Addison&lt;/b&gt;: *that is a bit jagged* ...Might want to see a doctor about that...*starting to...believe, maybe*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *o3o They don't like me....*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *don't like you in medbay, nor on my person.

Are you at the bar now? I'll come and see you&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wildfire&lt;/b&gt;: That wasn't a hit. Now stop moving. I'm digging out bullets with my talons, for Primus' sake. That'll be something to explain to the medics. &amp;quot;Sorry, I paralyzed Rapid Fire because he wouldn't stay still while I was performing a third-world operation&amp;quot; ..........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Grumbles and stays still...

Nothing. *Stalks out of the room, for the bar main*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wildfire&lt;/b&gt;: *shakes her head and follows him out*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Windshift&lt;/b&gt;: *huggy little thing*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Just goes back up into the rafters-ow*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Subterfuge&lt;/b&gt;: *shaaaakes arm*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Severed Arm&lt;/b&gt;: *Shaaaaken @@*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: Scouting, patrolling...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *churrs softly, feeling just a touch more neurotic over her belief that she's not a good enough medic yet to earn an honest cube, and currently having no other skills for earning an honest cube either*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Bah, honest cubes... &amp;gt;&amp;gt;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *does NOT like the idea of being a total freeloader*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Then get your energy the old fashioned way*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Windshift&lt;/b&gt;: *... speaking of which, when am I going to be allowed back on duty?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *when Perseco gives me a positive report on you*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *kneadkneadknead*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: How about you? Still helping in the medbay?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Luna&lt;/b&gt;: *preens her wings*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *-_- My back is bleeding. This is not fun*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Windshift&lt;/b&gt;: *will get on that then*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *nods* Yeah, though sometimes I wonder if I'll ever be as good as, say, Ratchet or Stress...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: *smiles* You're still young, Dark. Really young. And in case you haven’t noticed, Ratchet and Stress aren't. If you keep at it, you will become as good as they are some day. *nuzzles*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *zzzzzzz'd on the couch*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Roth Red&lt;/b&gt;: *sprawled across Stress' foot zzzzzz*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Windshift&lt;/b&gt;: *gets up after a while and heads into the bunks for stasis*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *little purr* Yeah. Just be kinda nice to not feel so much like a third wheel on a motorcycle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: Pish. Stop putting yourself down. You've helped to save lives here. You're still learning medical skills, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *nodnod* I don't want anyone -- especially those I care about -- to die if it can be prevented. That's why I want to be a medic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Preens*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: Well, with drive and passion like that in your Spark, then some day you will be. *kneads her*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *purrs and kneads back* *softly* Sometimes, I get nightmares that you, or Delta, or anyone else I care about, are severely injured in a battle, and all I can do is hold your hand and watch you die. I don't get them as often anymore, but when I do...they still hurt, like jumping into a smelting pool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: Awww. *holds her close, kneads her* It's okay now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *clingas and kneads*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: *purrs for her*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *snugs, starts to purr too, is kinda tired and cuddly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Blackjack&lt;/b&gt;: *head to the back with DS*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Luna&lt;/b&gt;: *leaves and flies off*&lt;br /&gt;</content>

I can't help landing on my head. x__X *gets up and dusts himself off*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: *pulls her hand back then* As long as your helm doesn't crack from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jolt&lt;/b&gt;: It's pretty thick. 8)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Hmm, better than the alternative *may be lightly amused*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jolt&lt;/b&gt;: *grins a bit*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Was the bar up to its usual tricks, or just accident?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jolt&lt;/b&gt;: I think it was the bar. Still getting used to the idea of a building teleporting me at its whim though. o_&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: I suppose I have been lucky in that it hasn't done it to me as of yet. But I would still agree&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jolt&lt;/b&gt;: Who are you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Designated Firedrake&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Jolt&lt;/b&gt;: Hi. ^_^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: And yours? *extends her hand in a proper greeting* *maybe the 'bitties' are known by most, names at least.

Good day... Firedrake. Is there... a problem here?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Not that I am aware of. Other than that the bar seems to wish company. You are the second mech today snatched from his business&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: *makes a low sound at that* Yourself?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: I seem to have escaped such so far. Never mind that stating that now may curse it. Irritating, I imagine, as you might have had work to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: *nods a bit, hesitating for a moment* Maintenance duties. Not too many are... interested in such things back at base. *.... conversation, I fail at it* ................ You are... well?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Hmm, I imagine. Especially now, with the freedoms they might have. I am well, you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: *automatically* Fit for duty. *sets the crate on the counter, one hand over it* Have there been further news on the enemy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: *that is a response that would have spurred questions if from anyone of the troop she once was a part of* Other than the informant they got among us, found out a few days ago, none.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: *rumbles briefly at that, talons ticking* Perhaps there will be a chance in the future to balance accounts with -that- one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: *In her mind, that demonstrated perfectly why any new arrivals shouldn't be simply welcomed into everyone's trust. Not -locking them up-, by any means. But a careful watch never hurts* I certainly would not mind if it came up. We struck a considerable blow at them some time ago. But with their numbers -likely- being much less, they can move stealthily all the easier&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patch Work&lt;/b&gt;: *comes into the bar from the medbay, as was kicked out of the medbay T-T*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: They will be found and dealt with. *because I for one won't rest until they are* *turns to look at the new mech and stiffens, looking away, doing his best not to bristle*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Patch Work&lt;/b&gt;: *.........can I come back in the medbay now?!

And I can return the favor? *nodded to Patch Work, and greets Hawk as well*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Skua&lt;/b&gt;: *by far more sore and stiff than he cares about. And so, among other things, is wondering why he spends any longer periods awake*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *because life's out there, not in here*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Donovan Allen&lt;/b&gt;: *-_-* *is still here*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hawk&lt;/b&gt;: I'm Hawk. *to Swifthunt*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Swifthunt&lt;/b&gt;: *split-second drone-in-headlights look* ...

You awake?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Firedrake&lt;/b&gt;: Designated Firedrake, and you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Skua&lt;/b&gt;: I could say no&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Hawk&lt;/b&gt;: I am Hawk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Donovan Allen&lt;/b&gt;: *snorts* Sort of ruins it if you answer back&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Skua&lt;/b&gt;: I imagine so&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Donovan Allen&lt;/b&gt;: *rolls his eyes* So have you finally decided to live?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Skua&lt;/b&gt;: *...doesn't answer directly* I would not mind seeing something other than the ceiling here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Donovan Allen&lt;/b&gt;: Good. That's progress. *probably was fired from SAR but oh well*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Skua&lt;/b&gt;: *neglecting your duties for this...* *is likely well enough to be let up, though it may be a while still before he's off the injured list* *if the medics would be so kind about the restrains though.

    <content type="html">&lt;a name="cutid1"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *shuffles out of the back, reading a datapad and sipping at his weekly self-allowed cuppa joe*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *heads in through the Seekerwindow after having sprawled on the roof for a few moments*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *looks up briefly, and smiles a bit* Greetings, Sunburn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *gives a nod to Stress* g'day *maybe noticing how -few- there are in the bar. But with everything, that has to be expected o_&amp;lt;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *moves to his usual table, to set a few small parts on it and stare at the datapad for a moment* Keeping yuirself busy, I hope?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *snorts, almost in amusement* it's been a lot of time up north. And I'm not going to ask if you've been busy. Medics and so on&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ah, occupational hazard indeed. *gives him a curious look* Up North?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: That's true *nods* And just looking for anything that our current source of trouble may have snuck in&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ach. *looks thoughtful at that* What are the news on that front, if'n ye know anything?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *shakes his head* Probably not, but... *gives a short rundown of what he's seen...and mostly heard. Just in case that it's something lacking, or something that could be news to either of them*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *frowns, shaking his head* That we'd come to this... Ach, an' faith's a hard to give up, no matter what yuir beliefs say, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *rumbles quietly* we'll get through it. They won't take what we've found here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Aye an' I know that, but 'tis still a sad thing that they'll nae see that, that they'll nae yield and live. 'Tisnae wrong to die for yuir beliefs, but 'tis saddening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *pauses for a while, thinking. Then nods* it's never a good thing to get so stuck in something, that you can't see anything else, no.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *is glad that the young one does think, at least 8)* Nay, 'tisnae, but one cannae help those who dinnae want to be helped without doing more harm than good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *guesses he's made some progress during those past years o_&amp;lt;* I know some attempts was made to try to talk with them, however little. Maybe other than one...that the word was given to catch alive if anyone saw him&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Well, perhaps there's hope for one, if nothing else. 'Twill always be better than hope for none, aye?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: Always, definitely&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ach, but enough of such subjects. Surely yui've got good news to share with an auld Rover as well?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: It's been quiet, and I finally get around to take a short while to come by here? *grins* A few who I plan on seeing in a while too. How about good news around here?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ach, I'm afraid I've nae news unless yui'd like a tale of the medbay's inventory and supplies ^_^ But there's been nae injuries recently, and I guess that's good news all on its own?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: I'd say. From some time back though, and before that. I imagine that you've earned some years of no incidents from all of us *takes the opportunity to snatch a few crunchies from that bowl...then put them back if they're still formed as those little skulls*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ach, if only, if only! ... What are those? o.O&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *XD Plenty of non-skull-looking ones, bub*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: Someone have an odd sense of humor, I think o_&amp;lt; *points to a few examples of the skull-shaped ones* *just not so tempting to eat with those that are in between the rest*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Ye can eat those? o.O&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: Apparently, they read as made of energon at least&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *....ok, this he has got to see, and scoots off his booth to go stare at them* ... are ye sure?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *snorts lightly* Better check for yourself to be sure?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: ............................................... *nabs a little skull and NOMS it* *crunchmunchnomnom* .... 'Tis sweet!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *tilts his head a bit, then eyes the crunchies dubiously again*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: 'Tis a wee bit odd *crunchmunch* to chew yuir fuel, but 'tisnae harmful that I can tell *munchmunch*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *quietly wanders out from her room to curl up in the main room, looking less like death warmed over than she did the other day, but still pretty obviously not as well as she should be* *and by some miracle of Primus, managed to avoid getting lectured by Ratchet the other day, too 8)*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *...

The bar had energon snacks? @_o&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Darkstalker&lt;/b&gt;: *ohey, things that scan as being energon on the counter over there...if they're still there when the mechs leave, will steal them all and hoard them*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *grins* For as long as I remember *had a lot of them in the early days*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: ... I only ever had me joe XD They're good, but I cannae compare them to what I've nae had before. Why don't ye try them?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *just not so keen on eating something that resemble something from inside an organic, other options or not* *....and is getting snickered at by his Mun -_-* another time maybe &lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: They're nae bad at all. *nabs another crunchy and heads back to his table* Ye should try an' remember to try them ^_^&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: I'll try *probably not. And...knows that there's candy around anyway :3*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Lands heavily on the roof, and slinks in the skylight, a little more shot up than when he left*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *oh yes, that one...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Still alive, oh yes.

P-please.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: Aye an' let's go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vae&lt;/b&gt;: *peeps*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *You forget just how paranoid I am. And you're very, very bright green*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *darts into the back*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vae&lt;/b&gt;: *reaches for Ratchet T.T *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Stress Proof&lt;/b&gt;: *follows, pausing for a moment to watch Vae*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chiro&lt;/b&gt;: *watching from the hallway*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *c'mere, bitty* *will pick up Vae if he lets him, EYEING the Air Commander* Starscream. Back from the void.... again -_-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vae&lt;/b&gt;: *cling-a, burying his face into his armor*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Turns to regard Ratchet and the bitty* Try sounding less surprised.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: The survival of... certain individuals never surprises me *rubs at Vae's back reassuringly* Is there something you require of -my- medical staff?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: Not at the moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Good. Because upsetting a medic that might, in the future, be responsible for keeping your tailfins attached to the rest of the frame, seems vastly counterproductive, don't you think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vae&lt;/b&gt;: *................&lt;span style="font-size: 50%"&gt;purrbles&lt;/span&gt; *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Scoffs* Because we all know when it comes down to it, an Autobot medic would save &lt;i&gt;me&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *cocks a heavy optic ridge* Unlike some mechs, each and every Autobot medic, and quite a few Decepticon ones, who work the medbay here, are well aware of the Treaty and have save countless Decepticon lives *smirks* Go ahead and ask &lt;i&gt;Barricade&lt;/i&gt; if you don't believe me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *I DO NOT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM YOU PISSFACED FUCKWIT*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *I know &amp;gt;83* *gives Vae a lolly for being a good bitty, even if he's going to have to tell him later that medics don't throw Lego blocks at mechs 83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Aah, but Barricade, while an irritating crotchpheasant at best, still falls short of the loathing I seem to inspire* No need.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *.....................................................crotchpheasant? o.O*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vae&lt;/b&gt;: *but........he had it coming?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *...yeah, I don't get it either…*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Well, remember that one time we all got very drunk?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *oh, he abso-fragging-lutely did, Vae. But medics are dignified and don't throw Lego blocks at potential patients. In public, anyways 83*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *..........................................don't talk about that*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *And that's where that comes from. &amp;gt;&amp;gt;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Barricade&lt;/b&gt;: *I had forgotten about that. Damn you. &amp;gt;&amp;lt;;*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: Hrmph. *gives him a flat look*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Matches it. Has no use for being challenged like that, medic or not*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *who's challenging you? I've got better things to do than go chicken-chasing about*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Is that why you came all the way here to apparently try and chastise me for scaring your medic?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *I don't chastise. Do I look idiotic enough to try and berate a 30+ foot Seeker like a youngling? I came here to point out facts*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Point out facts as if I was processor damaged. Don't try and pretend you weren't talking down to me*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *I said I wasn't berating. Nothing was said about talking down 83* *heads into the back to see about his staff and their well-being, and fires off a quick message to the A-bot Elite, guess who's visiting and (unfortunately) in relatively un-objectionable behavior*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *You all sound like you want me to try and murder you*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Ratchet&lt;/b&gt;: *I don't -want- it. That doesn't mean I don't -expect- it*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *... Probably would too, if he didn't have something else to keep him in check* *Moves over to the bar counter, to see if there's any energon left at all he can steal*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *think you took the last of my free samples, bub*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Vexing* *Tries the comm. that was labeled on the cube* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Is this the mech responsible for the energon left at the Crash Site?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *tips his hat back, sittin' up there on a rafter* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I reckon some of it is mine. What can I do for ya, bub?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Looks up at the movement* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I am interested in procuring energon in large quantities. What price does your assistance have on it?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *grins* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Same as it does everyone else, bub. You get yourself some fuel, honest-like, and I distill it into any grade you want. I keep one cube, two if you want it flavored. And if I find out you ain't dealin' for it legal-like, we're through doin' business, permanently. I should warn you, I'm awful good at findin' out that kind of stuff.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *And how the heck is he supposed to legally procure fuel? Since hacking the money for it probably still counts as highly illegal*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *pretty sure either of the Generals, or even the h00mans, could find somethin' for you to do in exchange for it, bub. Ain't you a scientist as well as a trigger-happy harpy?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Is a scientist, and a damned good one at that... BUT that would be working for an enemy he'd love to see smolder and die, and might bring Necro attention to himself and his dealings. Besides, if he could get the fuel, is capable of distilling it himself*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *well, that's a whole different kettle of fish, bub. You only asked for energon, not fuel*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *It would be better if he didn't have to do the distilling himself, and would prefer energon, but not if the price is too unreasonable*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *I'm a reasonable mech. Woulda thought the offer made that obvious*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I find your terms unreasonable. I have no fuel nor access to it. *Legally*&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Then it ain't energon you're lookin' for, bub, but raw fuel, and that's a whole different color of horse. Happens most everyone here probably has access to it. Of course, that don't mean they'd deal with you, does it?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;You ought not ask rhetorical questions.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I ain't smart enough for that.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Doesn't believe that, only those trying to hide their intelligence claim to be stupid* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Obviously a majority will not deal with me. Do you number among them?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I'm strictly a businessmech, bub. But my price might not be somethin' you'd be willin' to pay.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;That depends, doesn't it? Name your price.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Information.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Now that could be dangerous* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;What could I possibly know that would be worth anything...&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Oh, now who's askin' rethorical questions, bub?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I will reserve the right to decline handing over specific information.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Of course, bub. And I'll reserve the right to stop dealin' with you if I find out you've answered less than honest-like. That's just good business, no?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Of course.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;What do ya need?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Hmm... let's start small...* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;*Names an amount of fuel roughly equivalent to fill up an F-22*&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *tips his hat down over his face, thinking* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Back when your and the Saleen's missiles were having an exchange of opinions, your conversation kept on goin' long after you stopped, didn't it?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Yes, it did.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Alright. Anythin' else?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;For the moment, no.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *Will wait and see if he delivers, first*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Alright. Gonna need two or three days. *names a nearby ravine, dried up with the current drought* There, in three days, good for you?&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;Acceptable.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *Double cross me, and you won't live to enjoy it*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *ain't plannin' to, bub. I like secrets, and you promise to carry some nice fat ones...*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: &amp;lt;&amp;lt;It'll be there. I suggest you show up before sun's up high, though. Heat ain't gonna be good on the fuel.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Has looooots of secrets. But only a few he'll part with* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I'll be there at dawn, then.&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *let the games begin* &amp;lt;&amp;lt;I'll be excusin' myself, then, if you don't mind.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; *leaps down from the rafters, but stops to refill the bowl of crunchies, this time in shapes of frogs and bats* See if you like 'em, bub 83 *tips his hat*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sunburn&lt;/b&gt;: *may try them later, then. Possibly*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *That hat is absolutely bizarre* *Watches him as he moves down from the rafters, but seems rather unconcerned with both the thought of him leaving, and the crunchies being available to try*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Morpho&lt;/b&gt;: *don't diss the hat, it's a damn good hat* *heads out*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *. . . . Steals a handful of crunchies for later inspection, well aware he's still being watched*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *walks into the bar...and stops momentarily* hel...lo *got Prime's message, but didn't expect seeing that one back here. Heads over to a table*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: *Looks the new one over sharply*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *flexes the spikes on his back* what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: Did I say anything?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: Might have been by the look you gave me *takes a cube out of a compartment*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Starscream&lt;/b&gt;: You should be less sensitive. It was but a look. *Takes his leave of the bar*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Shifts on his rafter perch once the Air Commander is gone*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *eh, probably. It just isn't every day Decepticon Air Commanders show up at the bar*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Which is rather a good thing, if anything*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *That depends on your preferences, with the Treaty?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Treaty nothing... Starscream is unpredictable at best, and dangerous... and probably a better boss than Galeforce, so far as he's concerned*  *And it's that sort of thinking that could get a mech killed. Again. -_-*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *well, sure he is. But I'm not going to get into who might be the best leader. What's so superior with having the war go on anyway?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Because nothing was solved... *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *wasn't it?*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Not from my point of view.*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Sky Hunter&lt;/b&gt;: *You're probably not alone in that. Plenty of mechs are probably managing anyway*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Rapid Fire&lt;/b&gt;: *Is managing. But will not give up hope that one day things are rectified*&lt;br /&gt;</content>
