[Video - Solus Temple] New Opening!
[Get out your popcorn, mechs, ladies and gentlemen because you are getting a show to watch. And who’s hosting that? Why yes, your two
Ehem. [Knock Out sports a huge grin and looks pretty darn proud of himself, meanwhile Barricade is leaning against a berth with his arms crossed, a smirk on his face.]
It came to our attention that keeping all your medical resources as well as all your doctors in the same place at the same time is the worse idea anyone ever had since Starscream decided that stiletto heels were trendy.
[Knock Out could recite a long list of bad decisions that Starscream made, but that's neither here nor there.] We would like you all to be the first to know that the new clinic is currently open.
Don’t worry, we’re still in Solus’s temple – just in a different spot. Now with our facility you’ve got one-stop shoppin’ f’r all your upgrade needs. And if someone happened to pop your arm off and beat you with it, we’d be happy to re-attach it and get those nasty dents out. Even touch up your paint.
Now, time for a virtual visit.
[Knock Out pats the head of the droid holding the camera gently and it starts moving around the clinic for people to see how it looks. Flonne smiels and waves at the camera when it walks past the reception desk.
There's a ridiculous amount of pristine walls and white floors, and the space is big. Way bigger than it was intended to be at first, sorry Solus, Knock Out got a bit trigger happy when it came to knock down a few walls.]

[She smirks and relaxes. By the looks of it, she picked the right bot to bring in as her partner in her endeavors.]
I tore out the acid launcher in a dead one and rebuilt it. I even figured out how to turn it into a weapon we could use. That meant I needed to come up with the acid too.
[She pauses for a moment and looks towards a shelf lined with various acid mixtures.]
You could say venom's, drugs and acid are starting to become my specialty.
no subject
Sounds likes you and me saw the same potential in those creatures. I made some bombs with the acid and other sort of pointy weapons with the claws and pincers. Their hard skin makes good shields too, I used that as a container when I designed the acid bomb.
[Knock Out approaches her, curious about the vials.] I would say that you show a natural talent for them too. Care to explain me what some of those can do, lady?
no subject
[And it took her forever to do it and keep the damned bug drugged just right.]
Sounds like it. I've done a few similar things. It helps to have a live bug to harvest what I want from. You just got to be careful not to harvest something important in keeping it alive.
[And the reason the creature is missing a few legs. As for the vials, she studies a few for a few moments before motioning to a few and explaining.]
This one is a highly concentrated mixture of my own venom and the centipedes acid. It paralyzes and dissolves any living thing it comes in contact with. It should be more affective on bots than organics, but I have yet to actually test it. Another vial is a pure form of my own venom and another is venom from Quickstrike.
When the two are mixed, you get a poison that paralyzes and slowly kills the target. Some are varying degrees of acid concentrations from weak to instantly dissolving.
[She glosses over a few canisters, still not too sure what they do yet. And she glosses over one or two other items she isn't ready to discuss quite yet.]
I've also taken to trying to mix my venom with trace amounts of Energon to see what happens.
[She glances back at him with a faint smirk.]
Nothing's been tested just yet.
no subject
[He can only imagine, she's not the biggest of Cybertronians. But neither is him, to be honest.]
Live subjects are always more useful. Studying their reactions tells you so much more than corpses's. [If he sounds like he's talking from experience, well, it's because he is too.] Impressive. Remember me to never get on your bad side. Do you know how fast that mixture works? Are we talking about seconds or minutes? I don't think I met Quickstrike.
[There's a devilish smile in Knock Out's face at that last bit of information.] Was any of that energon purple?
You should try those on a subject more close to our species's anatomy. You can only go so far with insects. [Now they need to find a 'volunteer'.]
no subject
[She displays her glyph and the noticeable outline in Megatronus's colors. Blackarachnia is still not thrilled about it, but she's managed to deal.]
That's why I need to do the testing. My regular venom takes seconds. So does Quickstrike's. It's the mixtures I'm not sure about.
[She looks thoughtful for a moment and taps the tip of a claw against her lips.]
Quickstrike is another Predacon. He's the one that killed Rung a while ago.
[The finding a 'volunteer' that no one would complain about will be the hard part.]
Trust me, I plan on it. That's where you come in.
no subject
Either they increase its effect or dissolve it. Could I get a small sample to investigate on it? [He specifies a small one so she doesn't think he's trying to trick then. He managed to replicated Ratchet's synthetic energon with only a small sample, Knock Out knows that sometimes a drop is all you need.]
Ah, right. Now I remember. He's still in the planet?
[Only if they discover about it. They can grab a poor acolyte.]
I'll let you know that I make an awful test subject. [He knows she didn't probably mean it that way, but it never hurts to be clear from the beginning.] And it would be such a shame to ruin my finish by accident with an experiment, specially when we have so many possible volunteers out there.
no subject
Not happening. I'll let you help me test the stuff, but that's about it wheels. I may like you, but I don't like you so much to share anything that might contain something as personal as my venom.
[She huffs and crosses her claws beneath her chest plate.]
...I haven't a clue if that double headed idiot is still here and I don't care either.
[Okay, maybe she cares a little for the simple fact that it was good to have another Predacon around. Especially an idiot one at that.]
You find me volunteers, I don't scratch the finish. Besides, you're too good looking to be my usual dodo of a test subject.
no subject
[That only brings attention to her chest, forgive Knock Out as he tilts his head at her reaction.]
No, I can tell you don't. Were you two close back in your world? Perhaps he got himself killed, I wouldn't put it pass Prowl to use any sort of excuse to punish what he calls a 'criminal'.
[It's adorable, in a tsundere kind of way. At her last reply, though, Knock Out is not sure if he should feel offended or praised. He doesn't really like to follow orders for a long time.]
I'm sure we can work on it. Besides, what's in it for me? Finding someone without anybody noticing takes skill. You are lucky I'm very good when it comes to kidnapping people. [Knock Out that's not something you should be proud of.]
no subject
[She could care less if he's staring right now.]
Not even close. He was just a good stooge for when I needed to move something or needed a moron to be a shield.
What's in it for you huh? Does working with a beautiful and deadly spider count? You get to the fun job of inflicting torture and potentially pain on unsuspecting victims.
[She's definitely not bothered by the lack of morals. She doesn't exactly have very many to begin with.]
Of course, if that isn't enough, I could let you develop an antidote for one or two of the mixtures. If you're interested of course.
no subject
Morons make good shields, I will give you that. [Then he chuckles.] I will think about it. I'm pretty busy with the clinic, but I am interested. And who doesn't enjoy working with a beautiful and deadly partner?
[Morals are for people with no sense of fun.]
That works.
no subject
[Morals are too restricting and Blackarachnia hates that.]
I thought you might like that.
no subject
Pff morals. Those are not for them.]
I do. Now, I need to get back to the clinic. We will have some more visitors today that I can't ignore. [He moves forward to carefully grab one of her claws and give a polite kiss, like a gentleman.] It was a pleasure.
no subject
[Exactly. Leave the morals to the Maximals and Autobots. They can play with them to their little spark's content.
Blackarachnia just smirks as he kisses her claw. Such a gentleman~. Careful Knock Out, gaining her affections can be just as deadly as gaining her ire.]
Then don't let me keep you big bot. I'll be around.
