[The video is a bit fuzzy, the screen smudged with what appears to be soot, or some other dark material. Perceptor himself is much the same, though he doesn't appear to notice in the slightest.]

[He actually looks amused. He holds up one hand, to gesture at the camera -- and there are blackened rings of something around each wrist.]

Good news! I've managed to make progress in several projects I've been working on recently, and they may prove of some use to the populace.

For starters... there was a personal defense weapon for a specific individual...

[Cough - Ambulon - cough.] So. If they would be so kind as to inform me of their coordinates, I can send the prototype there with all due expedience.

Secondly... In response to the ah... issue at hand, that involving those without Glyphs, I may be able to offer a temporary solution to any sudden bouts of destructive mania.

[He holds up what appear to be a perfectly normal pair of... handcuffs. Cybertronian style, but still.]

Temporary. The effect I've designed won't last terribly long, but. It's a start.

Gotcha.

Next synthetic I see going crazy, I'll send your way.

[sciencetank]

"Synthetic"? You mean AI?

No, no, the AIs currently operational in the Haven aren't the only ones affected by this issue, as I understand it. Cybertronians and organics are apparently due to fall victim as well.

[wrex_it_krogan]

Organic or not, my offer still stands.

[You want crazies on your porch? You got it.]

[sciencetank]

... How utterly thoughtful.

[wrex_it_krogan]

That's me, always looking out for the little guys.

[sciencetank]

...

Little?

[wrex_it_krogan]

Oh right.

I forget synthetics are bad with humor.

[sciencetank]

Are they? I haven't interacted with any, short of drones, to say for certain.

[wrex_it_krogan]

I'll keep that in mind, pyjak.

[sciencetank]

Come again? I don't have that word in my database.

[wrex_it_krogan]

I tell you what.

I get settled in and maybe I'll think about telling you.

[sciencetank]

... How charming.

[wrex_it_krogan]

It's just part of my rugged charm.

[sciencetank]

I see.
