accidental video | location: Trion's sector
[An elbow or some errant piece of lab equipment must have activated the Link. Either that or Perceptor meant to say something, but was called away by whatever it was he's tinkering with. In this case, it's something under that big work-lamp of his, and vaguely resembles a small box. With a button on top.]
... I've utterly no memory of this. Why on Cybertron would there be...?
[Link feed forgotten, he peers lower, examining whatever this device may be.]
What could the button possibly --
[And, as if in retribution for the last time this happened being locked away from prying optics, something small, glowing, and flying on rotors buzzes right up into the tank's face. He jerks backwards, upwards, and...]
[CRACK goes the back of his head against the lamp.]
[The video goes dark, save for the lights on Perceptor's frame, and that of the glowing insectoid itself, buzzing happily about while the Autobot curses.]

audio;
[Perceptor what even is that.]
I need an exterminator.
audio;
[He doesn't even know what that is.]
Right, give me a minute.
audio;
[No one knows that that is. Except Perceptor, apparently.]
... A minute for what?
audio;
BE ARE BE, PERCEPTOR. ]

WHEELJACK CAN ADD ONE NERD TWO NERD RED NERD BLUE NERD YOU KNOW.]
audio;
[He also sleeps there so. That makes it count as living there.]
action;
And he transforms, starting to walk inside the temple.]
Yo! Percy! I know you're in here!
action;
[Says the voice down the hall... thataway.]
action;
Miss me?
action;
Mind the insect.
action;
He starts to swat at it, not really expecting it, and stumbles over himself and falling into the darkness that is Perceptor's room.]
Fraggin-!
action;
[Perceptor just. Waits. Until the commotion stops. Before he gets the overhead lamps back on.]
[It looks pretty much like you'd expect a Perceptor's lab to work, except on a very large scale. That, and there's a berth tucked into one wall, like a bunk. The only chair in the lab is equally large, with wheels on it, and Perceptor stands just behind it, regarding the datapad in his hand.]
Do mind my shelving. Do you have any idea how difficult it was to acquire?
action;
...Wow. You went all out, huh.
[How difficult? Well...]
No one else would take it?
action;
[Half of this stuff was here when he moved in. And he looks genuinely bemused by the statement.]
Not that. It's simply impossible to find something that will hold up to my purposes.
action;
[Just...this face, Perceptor.]
Really. That's your complaint.
Your...biggest problem.
action;
Yes. It is.
[What is that face for.]
action;
Bummer.
action;
[What does that word even mean?]
action;
[Don't mind him picking up a vial and inspecting.]
action;
[The vial is glowing.]
action;
[Most people assume an infestation is more than one.]
...why's it glowin'.
action;
[He glances up, to where the bug is gleefully smacking itself into the overhead lights.]
Be my guest.
... What was that?
action;
One? One's not really an extermination, Sarge.
[Back to the vial.]
You smugglin' Tox-En or somethin?
action;
[He blinks, looking up from the console he'd begun tapping away at.]
No, not yet. And even if I had begun, it certainly wouldn't be in such a permeable container.
