[Ultra Magnus can be seen sitting at his desk. Placed across it is a giant war hammer, glowing faintly.

Oh, and there's something yipping in the background. Not quite like a dog, not really. Some might recognize it as the sounds of a lively turbofox.

Really, Magnus just looks exasperated.]

I don't suppose someone wants to take this creature off my hands. I've no use for it.

[Eventually, Magnus just kind of. Gives up on trying to shoo it off his lap. It circles around for a moment before laying down there.

Ultra Magnus rubs the bridge of his nose.]

Suppose I'll try to foist it off on someone else later. Maybe Drill Boy. I don't know.

At any rate, if you find a package with your name on it out there, I'd be wary. The hammer doesn't mean much to me, but I don't want you to get anything like Blurr did.

[there's a bit of wariness in his face. pit knows he doesn't need any reminders.] I'll be careful next time I go out to scrounge. Though, maybe Vandal could use the critter.

Good.

...Hm. Maybe. Though I suppose I'd have to advise her how to care for it.

What's to do other than feedin' 'em?

You need to train them to behave, to make sure they don't break anything, to heed commands -- not unlike any rookie, I suppose.

Slag, if that's the case, maybe it's better off with you until it behaves better. You've gotten a few rookies out in the field, haven't you?

[thehardway]

...Mm. Suppose it'd be easier to train. I can't think of many rookies that consider an energon treat to be substantial rewards for good behavior.

Very well. I suppose I can train it for her.

Couldn't be harder. At least you've got a reliable motivator.
