audio | location: ... SOMEWHERE AWKWARDLY CLOSE TO THE BAD LANDS

[thxforthememories]

[There's nothing much to the message. Just another plea for help from a robot -- those have gotten pretty common lately, haven't they? Especially from this one.]

I need someone's help -- out on the edges of the badlands... I --

I found Perceptor out here.

[Not exactly who he was looking for, but. A friend is a friend.]

He's damaged. Buried in rocks. I don't know what happened... I can't get him back safely by myself.

[The sound of rock shifting can be heard. Despite what he says, he's trying to get the Autobot out of trouble. Without much success.]

He needs help, please!

Then... then we still need help to dig you out. I'm trying, but I can't -- they're too large for me.

[He squeezes again, tighter.]

What can I do? What else?

[percept]

Just stay with me Kagerou. That's enough.

[ He tries to smile. ]

[thxforthememories]

Yes, of course. I won't leave you.

[He means that, too. He's worried Kay is lost -- how can he leave someone else behind?]

We'll get you out, and... everything will be right.

[percept]

Yes, it will. Thank you.

[ Right now he's more worried about keeping Kagerou calm until help arrives. ]

You're my friend. I... You don't need to thank me.

[He's trying to. Though whether it's actually working is anyone's guess.]
