[The video starts on the medbay with Blurr half lying half sitting on a berth, looking fairly confused. When he speaks he still sounds tired but he tries to smile for a brief moment.]

Greetings, everyone.

I’m finally awake, sorry if I worried anyone. Could someone tell me what is going on?

[To explain Blurr’s confused face, there happens to be a group of small glowing bugs perched on the spike of his head, like birds lined up on a power line. Some bugs are also on the top of his pointy shoulders and a really small one is lazily sitting on his chest.

On the background, Blurr’s turbofox is chasing the glowing bugs around the medbay and making a mess of things.]

[Thundercracker has been in and out of the medbay - too restless with other ~~fears~~ cares to stay put, but unwilling to just turn his back and leave his friend to the care of the medics without at least being around for ~~moral support~~ smacking the mech upside the helm when he finally comes to.]

[He'd been outside skygazing again for a while, but he was just coming back into the room to check on Blurr when he hears the mech talking to his comm - he receives the comm itself too, but why answer there?]

[He knocks once on the door frame for attention before crossing to the side of the berth, arms crossing.]

What was that about taking care of yourself, Blurr?

[Translation: 'You worried me again, you glitch.' Also? He's steadfastly ignoring the little glowbug decorating the top edges of both wings.]

[Helm smacking, who doesn't love that? Thundercracker has been in the medbay so often that the turbofox is already used to him b now. Frank stops chasing the bugs and stares at him when he enters, then quickly goes back to playing.

Blurr on the other hand..he has the decency to look apologetic.] Ehm....I didn't realize I was tiring myself so much.

[Frank gets a nod of acknowledgment from the Seeker - if it were closer, it might actually find a couple fingers scratching behind its audial pinnae.]

[Thundercracker vents a sigh, shaking his head at his friend's roundabout apology.] You need to be more careful, Blurr. I know the past week or two have been terrible, but the close of one crisis doesn't mean we can let our guard down. We might not have a break to recover before the next arrives.

[That grin they were going to work on? Gone. And Blurr might or might not get an impression that it has to do with more than worry for his friend's exhaustion.]

[He might come closer later, once he's tired of the bugs. He never says no to some pettings.

Blurr looks surprised, as if he had been struck with the realizations of what happened.. Thundercracker was right about not always having time to recover after a crisis and while he knows it, it doesn't make this any easier.]

Sorry I'm...too used to work alone and sometimes I forget I don't have to do it anymore.

Well . . . you don't. Have to do it anymore, I mean.

[He vents a sigh.]

Can I get you anything?

Thanks Thundercracker...I really need to remember that.

Uhm. I'm still low on fuel, could you get em a cube? Ambulon doesn't want me leaving this berth.

[He smirks.] One thing you learn fast - don't frag off the medics. Yeah, be right back.

[He steps out of the room, returning with two cubes. The larger he offers to Blurr, then settles with the little, snack-sized one for himself.]

How much have you been told of what's been going on recently?

No, you are right about that. They can be scarier than Unicron.

[Blurr smiles like a scraplet that just got a present.] Thank you!

Not at all that much. I know that the bugs are Jetfire's doing and Gunmax mentioned Christmas.

Yeah, something like that.

...apparently there's another Megatron here now too. With a Glyph.

[Try as he might, he can't manage the level of nonchalance he's aiming for. The Seeker's biggest saving grace – and source of ~~feeling of impending doom~~ worry is that the cruel overlord hasn't been heard from, to his knowledge, since that first broadcast.]

You haven't seen Ratchet angry. Pray the lord you never see him.

And how does he behave? Maybe [Perhaps he's one from his world. Blurr hopes it isn't.]

[It takes the Seeker a moment to reply. When he does, his voice is a little...uncertain.]

Much like mine. He declared his intentions to gather "his" Decepticons – meaning all of us, regardless of reality – and conquer this world. Nothing new, I’m sure. [He shrugs and shakes his head, trying to dismiss it, or at least lessen the implications.] I imagine one of the First-Forged will put a stop to him before things get too ugly. [He can hope, anyway?]

[His frown deepens and he looks up at Blurr again.] There's something . . . not right about him, though. I can't quite place it. He looks like a twisted nightmare of my Megatron, but it's . . . not just his appearance.

I can't say why, but . . . I get the impression that he's somehow actually even more dangerous than mine.

[And after living under that overlord for as long as he did, he does not say that lightly.]

[Those are sure bad news. Blurr, however, look more concerned by Thundercracker's uncertainty than the possibility of a crazier Megatron.]

If they don't then the Police Force will. Or at least I will try.

[Thundercracker studies Blurr for an instant, a hint of worry visible in his optics.]

Not alone. I imagine the entire police force would be needed, like going after Overlord or Prism.

[Frag, that includes him, doesn't it? He . . . honestly can't say which side of the conflict he'd wind up on. He knows which side he'd want to be on, but...]

we will take care of the problem if things turns that way. DON'T worry about it for now WE need to keep things as civil as we can.

[One of the Starscream Blurr knew, the one who was really his friend shad that sort of problem too.]

[Were he organic, Thundercracker would be pale right now. As it is, his optics are dimmer than usual . . . but he just nods.]

Just . . . be careful. If this one is half as dangerous as mine . . .

[Or half as abusive…]

[Even if they're not organic, Blurr does notice the slight change in his optics. he choose not to comment on it to not upset Thundercracker further.]

If something gets out of hand the FirtForge will interfere.

Was yours that bad?

((Ahoy, here there be headcanon!...if we ever have a G1-Megs join (or Stars or Warp for that matter), pretend TC never said half of this 9,9))

[Thundercracker looks away, gazing at a spot on the wall. It takes him a moment to reply.]

Starscream, Skywarp and I were Megatron's Command Trine – in charge of the aerial troops and among the top officers of the entire Decepticon forces. Starscream especially was competent, skilled, and had all the drive to excel in the position. He was also ambitious, impulsive . . . most would add treacherous. Not that they'd be wrong, but few understood the real reasons Starscream did what he did half the time. He wanted to be leader, he wanted to be the best . . . he wanted out from under Megatron's tyranny. Partly for the power . . . and partly to put an end to the abuse, psychological and physical.

Starscream isn't the same mech he was when we first joined the Decepticons. None of us are.

. . . torture tends to do that.

[For as skilled and capable of a warrior as Thundercracker is, there is a reason he fears Megatron enough to rarely cross him.]

((Works for me~))

[Blurr finds himself frowning. He knows that Megatron and Starscream's relationship never had been stellar, but he never imagined it was THAT bad for him or the other seekers.

Blurr's engines revs and he gets a determined expression.] You won't have to worry about that. Not anymore.

[Thundercracker looks at the mech . . . and nods.]

Lord Megatron – the negative polarity one – has said as much too.

Thank you. [It sets him more at ease than he'll admit aloud.]

Anyway . . . you concentrate on getting well again. And call me if you need anything.

There's many people here who will protect you if something happens, Thudnercracker. [Blurr himself being one of them.]

Don't mention it.

[Blurr relaxes, looking sheepish again.] I will, I will.
