[Audio] Junk Pile (Back from hiatus!)

[spacerhero]

So theoretically speaking, what would you do if you, say, ran someone over with a tank and killed them?

[There's a reason the video isn't on. Shep is trying to keep it cool, and she's no stranger to killing things on purpose. But accidentally running over a raccoon that can talk while joy-riding in the junk pile... Maybe she could just pretend he was one of those pyjacks.]

People come back to life here, right? So he'll pop back up. Er, theoretically of course.

[She was currently squatting over a squashed raccoon body debating what to do with it.]

[you're talking to the FF whose people first get the ability to make light sphe-okay actually we won't talk about scary. let's move on, in fact.]

Theoretically he may not even be able to be caught at all. Death is not something we can easily thwart.

Were this only in a better situation. [not-quite-nice to meet you, too. :| ]

[Oooh, beware the night light! She's shaking, really.]

I thought you people were supposed to be gods or something. A bunch of humans with a big budget brought me back from the dead. I'm sure you powerful robots can bring back a little raccoon.

Primus is a god. We are His Firstforged. As such, we have great power, but there are things that are out of reach.

[Prima only has so much problem admitting it. he's not proud of being weak - far from it - but he's a realist.]

Raccoon, Cybertronian, whatever the species - I don't know how your fellow humans did it, but things are different here. And there is always a price to be paid.

[Way to make Shepard feel bad. The woman fell silent for a moment, thinking, before she sighed.]

Then it is my duty to help pay it, however I can. This was my mistake, I should set it right.

[primianpolarity]

[...well, that's one way to get him slightly less Disappointed in you, Shep. some of the sternness leaves Prima's tone.]

I would suggest starting with making it right with them - assuming we are able to catch them at all.

[spacerhero]

Them? You mean Rocket? Yeah, I'll start trying to find a trash can of crawfish.

[Hm... Maybe se should stop making fun of him as a start.]

Any other wisdom?

[primianpolarity]

[crawwhat]

Don't do it again.

[SO. DRY. but there's a seriousness there.]

In the end, you cannot pay the true price. And neither can we.
