[ There's just a bunch of static on the line for a long while, and it wouldn't be very interesting to most unless you recognized the sender ID as a familiar one. After a few minutes of noise, a few words finally make it through. ]

*kssh*-elp would be ... a-*kshhhh*-ciated. Again thi-*kshh* is Ra-*Kssshhhhhh*

[ And then the audio fades out into white noise for a few more seconds before cutting out completely. But perhaps you recognized the voice from the few seconds it came through? ]

Comments

[neonmedic]

[that's quite interesting]

You've returned. I'm on my way.

[docbot]

[ Some static is your reward. Maybe it's ... thankful static? In any case, it'll take a little doing to find Ratchet, since his nav systems are down and he can't give you precise coordinates, but if you do find him, he'll probably be happy to see you! ]

[dinnerdate]

You might want to fix your communicator.

[pendragon]

[ Saber definitely doesn't recognize the voice, but still, that static doesn't sound promising, and she thinks she heard a "help" in here. ]

Are you in need of assistance?

[ Someone else may have already helped this person out, but she can offer. ]

[Audio]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...

[No. It can't be.]

Doc...?

[docbot]

*Ksssht*ld if I cou*kssht*, you *KSHHHHHH*

[ ANGRY STATIC. No, seriously, it's rather louder than the original. Someone is being loud. Don't take it personally, he's just upset about the whole situation, and you're an easy target to vent at. ]

[ Audio ]

[docbot]

[ A bunch of static, but there's definitely a "Yes" involved. ]

[Audio]

[docbot]

*Kshht-t-t*-eeljack?

[ But... he remembers you crashing? This ... how is this possible? ]

[Audio]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[He can't get too excited just yet. With all that's going down...]

Yeah, it's me...Thought you upped and disappeared...

[Audio]

[docbot]

[ There's a bit of a pause, then a sighing gust of static before Ratchet responds. ]

I was *kshh* in *kshh* Badlands.

[dinnerdate]

... I'm sorry?

[And deaf.]

Re: [ Audio ]

[pendragon]

[ Saber pauses. That static makes it hard to converse.. ]

Can you give me a rough estimate of where you are located?

((Maybe this wasn't such a good idea, but Saber can't deny someone wanting help..! She will gladly come try to find Ratchet if he gives her vague directions, but do you want me to when the other Ratchet is already heading that way? Forgive me, I am new to DW rp and kind of confused with things going on at the same time like this! ))

[Audio]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

What's your status, Doc. I'll...I'll come find you.

[He doesn't even know how to anything at the moment.

Someone 'died' and 'came back'. It's not a familiar feeling. Now he knows what Bulkhead went through with his death.]

[Audio]

[neverputincharge]

[Is that...who he thought it was?]

...Ratchet?

[video]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

Ratchet?

You - You're alive...

Do you need help? Is anyone with you?

[neonmedic]

[Ratchet's pretty decent at searching for 'bots, so he's fairly quick to narrow down where the transmission originated, and soon an eye-searing neon yellow Hummer is trundling his way over.]

RATCHET IS THAT YOU?

AUDIO;

[engrishdetective]

...Chief?

[docbot]

[ Static for now. He'll yell at you properly when he's closer and has good reception. ]

[ Audio ]

[docbot]

[ His signal is coming through clearer now, so while there's static, it's not obscuring his words quite as much. ]

Edge of the Badlands. Other Ratchet's coming for me if you want to meet him somehow.

((Not a problem! If you'd like her to join in, feel free to ask Ravyn, but you've got my permission C:))

[Audio]

[docbot]

Nav and *kssh*nometer's glitching, but I'm ... fine otherwise. [ Maybe a bit dented, but the scarring's mental, not physical. ]

On the border of the Badlands now. Ratchet's coming for me...?

[ Implying that you're welcome to wait or join the search party if you want. ]

[video]

[drpaperairplanesmd]

... That doesn't sound very healthy.

Sir, do you--do you need help?

... Or ma'am.

[More doctors fretting at you, sorry Ratchet.]

[Audio]

[docbot]

Bulkhea*kssh*

[ He sounds pleased, yet also somewhat wary. He doesn't remember you being here, and that's both upsetting and heartening in equal awkward parts. ]
