Vandal here.

I've been sifting through the junk pile and I found a few things of interest. A few hard drives, some music and films on them, haven't sorted through or formatted it yet, but if anyone's interested in some entertainment there's that.

Found some stuff I might be able to turn into a human-sized living space. Old mobile home. Kind of shitty, but a nice fat project to work on. But uh.

Can anyone help me haul this thing out? I mean, I got it dislodged, but my RIG only has so much moving power.

Also: Hey Max, you around? When are we going to do that whole drink until we can't stand thing?


[Private to Ratchet]

Ratchet? I have something to ask you.



[Private to Perceptor]

You owe me that story.

[vandalization]

I don't really but okay.

Yeah.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

Come off it. How else do you prove loyalty and absolve yourself of responsibility, all at the same time? "Hey, I didn't tell you to! In fact, I warned you in the opposite direction!"

They're good mechs.

[Private]

[vandalization]

Yeah, yeah. Fair enough.

I know they are.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

So are you angry?

[Private]

[vandalization]

Angry about what?

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

I don't know. Me playing motherboard all over you?

[Private]

[vandalization]

Get in line behind everyone else for that, seriously. It seems to be the popular consensus that as I am made of flesh and bones, I clearly can't handle my shit.

So not really at you. I'm just not used to people worrying.

A whole gaggle of large robots no less.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

Look at it from our perspective. [if he can be so bold and assume he is sharing a perspective with Blurr and Drift. Even briefly.] You're incredibly small, very breakable and some Cybertronians haven't even seen humans up close. Add to that the Autobot tendency to protect little cute aliens -- mostly -- and you have a recipe for a bunch of prying 'bots. [and then there's him.]

[Private]

[vandalization]

[She only gets one thing out of that.]

Cute? Excuse me?

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

You get offended about the weirdest things. [oh right it's HER fault, obviously]

[Private]

[vandalization]

I'm not offended just.

Haha. Cute. Yeah, okay, sure. Either way, there are plenty of other humans around, what makes me so vulnerable and helpless?

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

I can count on one hand the number of humans I've talked to ever, Vandal, and all of them have been here. What would I know about how vulnerable you are specifically?

Why don't you tell me why Drift and the rest of them think it?

[nice dodge asshole]

[Private]

[vandalization]

Yeah well.

I guess it's just. I don't know. I'm not fucking helpless, though.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

[a hesitation.] Have you thought about trying bloodsport, instead? It's relaxing.

[Private]

[vandalization]

What?

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

I don't think there's material here for a proper arena, but you could always just draw a chalk circle...

[wait is this going to be another one of her "flee the area after Starscream mentions something innocent like clones or grievously injuring people"]

[Private]

[vandalization]

You're fucking sick.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

Flattery's not going to get you anywhere, Vandal.

[Private]

[vandalization]

Seriously, Starscream.

[Private]

[ex_dishonestly997]

You don't mean it.

[Private]

[vandalization]

I'm definitely not into that kind of thing.
