[ Have a tired-looking Ratchet, who is looking satisfied with himself for once, rather than grumpy. ]

For those of you who were worried, the surgery on Gunmax is complete, and I think it's taken quite well. He's conscious and unhooked from the generator, so if you'd like to visit, you're welcome to.

And my thanks to First Aid for his assistance. He's quite a competent mech.

[ Smiling, he tips a two-fingered salute off his chevron at the video, then cuts the feed. ]

[[ ooc: Gunmax will probably be responding to some of these threads, since he's up and at 'em, so be prepared *g* ]]

[[ EDIT: Added a ref to First Aid's assistance now that it's been confirmed >>; ]]

I am glad everything turned out all right. You are good at this.

Thank you, Noisy Boy. I appreciate the compliment.

[ Woop, embarrassed Ratchet. ]

[Hey, Noisy Boy is just being honest~.]

He will be able to leave soon?

If he doesn't cave his fool head in doing ridiculous stunts like cartwheeling around the bay.

[ Woop, sounding particularly harangued at the moment. ]

He has just been staying put for a relatively long time and he does not strike me as the 'still' type. And he is happy; I cannot blame him for over-reacting.

[Still, you have his sympathy. Ratchet, you poor guy.]

Doesn't mean he can't wait for one more day. [ He's calming down a bit, though. Maybe. Possibly. ]

Perhaps. But a day can be a long time, for Earth-bots. [At least Ratchet is calming down some?]

[ Yo'ure a good influence, Noisy. ~~Come give him a cuddle, that might help too.~~ ]

I suppose. Earth life-spans really aren't that long, are they?

[ And on that note, he frowns. ]

Did we ever get around to fixing those dents you got from that creature?

[He tries to be, Ratchet. ~~He would be surprised but not opposed.~~]

I do not know how old the Brave Police are, but I am the oldest boxing bot still fighting.

[Ah yeah... those.]

We did not.

Really? But you seem so young?

[ His expression firms up. ]

Ah. Then you should come by and we'll fix those up, then... and maybe get started on your hands. There's a new mech named Barricade who's got a flair for Earth-tech. And being able to pick things up might be helpful, mm?

I am five years old.

[Admittedly, old for boxing bots. But still.]

I will. And it would; I have spoken with Gunmax and this seems like my best option, without my handler present. Though... might I be able to make a request?

I come from a race that can easily live over five million years of age, so you're definitely still a youngling to me, Noisy Boy.

And of course you can make a request! What do you want?

You are an old race. But I have known many boxers that do not make it past two or three years, Ratchet.

Thank you. You have seen the LED screens in my forearms; I would like to keep them as they are.

Well. You're going to live much longer than two or three years under my care, Noisy Boy. You can be sure of that.

And of course the LED screens can stay. I'm not going to be taking anything away; just adding a few more points of articulation and some opposable thumbs.

That should be much easier here than at home.

I am glad to know that. [It's so comforting.] I will still be able to fight?

... that is the hope.

You will be able to fight as much as you wish, and quite a bit more besides. [ Ratchet's expression is just a touch smug. ] Barricade and I are coming up with some rather clever designs, if I do say so myself.

Really? [Oh, that just perks him right up.] I look forward to seeing what you have come up with, then.

I'll let you know when we've got something to show you, Noisy.

Please do. And thank you again, Ratchet. This is kind of you.
