[Video][Broadcasting from the Junk Pile at end of Event]
[McCrane, currently, sounds much more flustered than he has in past broadcasts. Granted, 'much more flustered' for him doesn't amount to more than a slight urgency in his voice, but considering both Gunmax and Drift have just collapsed he feels a need to be urgent.]
This is McCrane.
We have two men in need of repairs, and we are unable to ferry them to one of the temples.
[This is guilt. Gunmax, he knows, is down because of fuel, and both he and Deckerd are too low themselves to tow him anywhere. To illustrate the severity of the situation, he points his badge toward where the motorcycle detective is lying, optics flickering even as he insists to a very-worried Deckerd that he's perfectly okay. Beyond, Drift is lying in a puddle of his own rust, not obviously injured but not moving, optics offline.]
Ratchet? Knockout? Is there anyone available with mechanical expertise?
((OOC: This is a communal post. Replies may be from McCrane, Deckerd, Gunmax, or, if he snaps out of it, Drift. Also please feel free to actionspam arrivals!))

[His optics dim and he shuts off.]
[Action]
If you keep running this low, there will be damage.
Perhaps we can siphon some fuel from Deckerd or myself...
[Action]
You guys barely have enough.
[Action]
If we go, we go together. It is one thing you can't be first in.
[Action]
[Action]
That isn't incorrect. You'd do the same if you were in our place, you know.
[So technically, you just called yourself a sap.]
[Action]
[But McCrane is right. Gunmax wouldn't hesitate to do the same for either of them.]
[Action]
[He doesn't think he'd believe you, even if you did.]
[Action]
Not without... telling you guys what a couple of idiots you are first.
[Action]
I doubt you knew it was going to end up like this, however. [And if you did, and didn't tell them? Shame on you, Gunmax.]
[Action]
[Maybe he knew, maybe not -- maybe he's playing around. Gunmax isn't going to easily tell you or Deckerd anything right off the bat, you know that.]
[Action]
[It's almost a joke...see?]
Some mechs are on the way. With luck, they will find gasoline. If not, then I will have them siphon some.
[Action]
[The smile drops and he looks at McCrane with a small frown. His eyes not being under a visor makes his expressions far more sincere by comparison.]
...Don't do anything stupid, McCrane.

[He touches a hand to Gunmax's shoulder before rising to his feet.]
We should have done this differently. I'm sorry, Gunmax.

Remember... remember the part where I agreed. Okay? I know my... my limits, p-partner--
[His optics flicker again and he winces.]

It was still his call.]

[If it has not already been abundantly clear in the past, he'd walk to hell and back if it was asked of him by Deckerd and Yuuta. He's been less than agreeable in the past, but his trust was hard earned. It's not been wasted.]

[He turns away to go check on Drift.]

He doesn't have the energy, after all, to be the one to chase after him for once.]
Damn...
