[Have a . . . very strange creature glaring at the camera. When it speaks though, the deep baritone gives it - him - away, if the coloration didn't.]

All right, I won't ask the obvious. I can guess well enough what's happened - the widespread metamorphoses finally caught up with me. I do have one question, though.

[He lifts a four-digit paw, studying the long, curving, ultra-sharp talons - a thick, muscular tail thumping in irritation on the ground behind him - before he turns back to the camera.]

Can someone tell me what in the smelting fires of the Pit this body is supposed to be? It seems confused between an bird and a . . . I think a cat of some sort. [grumbles] And I want my wings back. My wings, not these...filament-covered...appendages. [Said "appendages" ruffle and flutter in reaction.]

First-forged, with all due respect, I hope an answer to all this nonsense is coming. Soon.

[He reaches to turn off his comm, but . . . long talons are ill-equiped to press buttons without either slipping off to either side between keys or scratching and trying to poke through the target key. Finally, though, he manages.]

((ooc: LOL believe it or not, no, I had NOT been thinking about this when I requested TC's shift. XD;;; A friend pointed it out this afternoon when I showed them the drawing. I died. XD))

Well that's. Not too bad then.

[Fracas dips his head and rubs the back of his neck, sheepish. Talking about it is still awkward for him, even after explaining multiple times to multiple people.]

When it started I... may have gone into hysterics. A-and the optic is an old injury, it just. Transferred between my face and this one.

I see. [He can't say he blames you for that.] Yeah? Huh. How come you never got it repaired? Or were you just never able to?

It's... well, I'm not sure about your world, but... my Cybertronians have biomechanisms. They can't be re-grown or repaired in standard ways, and they're difficult - and dangerous - to replace. Not that anyone would bother with that anyway, for... mooks like me.

Repairing soldiers that are probably going to get killed right after is a waste of energon.

[That gets a deep frown. He doesn’t know what a "mook" is, but he can guess it's slang and what it's slang /for/ based on the following comment and others Fracas made when they first met. And . . . what can he say? He's not sure he can argue that, much as he disagrees. So he'll focus on the part he /can/ address.]

I'm sorry it's that way in your world.

Biomechanisms?

[Fracas shrugs. It's how he's lived for all this time - longer than a Vehicon truly should, really - and he can't exactly find anything to complain about. Aside from his depth perception being shot, that's occasionally a pain.]

It's all right. I've learned how to deal with it.

Yeah. They're sort of... like organic organs. Knock Out could probably explain them better, I'm not much of a medic.

. . . so you're part organic?

Not exactly. Normally, I mean. Right now I'm kind of all organic and all. Just that our biomechanisms are similar to some organic parts.

Weird. Huh . . . yeah, may have to ask Knock-Out sometime…

You should. I... honestly don't know anyone else around here that would know all that much about it.
