re_alignment | [Accidental video

[There’s a surprised scream as Knock Out jolts awake and activates his communicator by accident. Shockwave’s next to him, with the cortical cable that he pulled out of Knock Out’s head in hand.

The medic stares at him, and it takes a lot of willpower to not just growl questions at his superior. For the last week he was home, dealing with Predacons, Cylas and zombie terrorcons. He’s a bit on the edge and very confused.]

We need to talk about your bedside manners. Where am I?

[The Decepticon Scientist retracts his hand, taking the time to coil up the device and set it on a tool table next to him. The room around him was mostly dark, but there were several lights focused on Knockout. Looks like he was on some sort of table..]

[Wait - table. A medical table, with a screen displaying the medic's vital stats right next to him. All normal.]

You are in my laboratory. You were brought here shortly after becoming unconscious.

[In Knock Out’s opinion, ‘he’ and ‘Shockwave’s laboratory table’ are two things that should never get mixed. He quickly gets out of the table and puts some distance between him and the bigger Con.]

Oh, that’s great really. Very sweet of you to do…[Knock Out stares warily at the lights and then back at Shockwave with a forced smile.]…Whatever you were trying to do, I think I will leave you alone now. I wouldn’t dare to disturb you while creating more Predacons and the like; I've had enough Eldritch Abominations for a life time. Now if you excuse me…

[He moves to leave and the video cuts to black.]

Knock Out! Thank Primus you're awake--you're okay!

[He manages to get out of the lab and he's already driving away as fast as he can. Being in someone's table is not something he enjoys, he's more used to the opposite. He quickly noticed that he was not in his world anymore.]

I'm not so sure about that. What the frag happened? I know I was with you the last time I was here.

You passed out on me when we were heading back to--

Wait.

The last time you were here?

[Excuse me sir. Where do you think you're going?]

[Shockwave gently blocks his path as he turns to leave, leaving a whole lot of purple decepticon between him and the exit.]

You should remain here until I can confirm that your brain activity is normal.

So you are awake.

Eldritch Abominations? Dare I ask?

[Although Blitzwing hadn't really made too big of a deal out of Knock Out passing out when it had happened, the fact he's woken up manages to send something akin to relief over him.

None of that shows as he says simply,]

Welcome back, doktor.

[There's the sound of an engine revving loudly as Knock Out finds himself a bit disoriented.]

It's been months. I was back on Earth and now, somehow, I am here again. Where are you?

[They need to talk about things, important ones.]

[Ah, so you really are here Knockout. For a moment he thought you had gone home or something. That would be most unfortunate. For Knockout that is.]

So you are here, Doctor.

Shockwave too, what a surprise.

[You get exactly one moment to explain why you didn't report in with him when he returned.]

[What..the..slag.]

I'm..at Trion's temple. Ah--I can meet you outside if you want or you can come in to the library.

[Out? To his own medbay in the other side of the Nemesis, far far away? For the record, the last time he checked yours didn't look like this. When did you redecorate?

That's a lot of ~~manrack~~ mass blocking his exist, Knock Out takes a step back.]

I never felt better. I merely can't remember how I got here in the first place.

Apparently. How did I get back here?

Almost as bad as the ones from the Badlands. You don't want to know, Rose.

[Where you worried about him? Even a little bit? He bets at least one of you were.]

It's good to heard a familiar voice. I have no idea how I get back here. What did I miss?

Mm, nozhing that I really considered notable -- except zhere vas quite an interesting display of torture broadcast on zhe Link not too long ago.

[whirr~]

It was pretty gross, even for my standards! Ahaha!

[Holy sh---- Well, look at that. Knock Out wasn't expecting to find Megatron now that he realizes the truth. Ey Dorothy, you are not in Kansas anymore.]

My Liege. I wasn't here a few minutes ago, I'm not even sure how I arrived again.

[Oh shit Megatron is here]

[There's a short bow from Shockwave as he appears on screen.]

I was preoccupied doing research in the Badlands until just recently. No transmissions could go through the haze.

[The revving comes to a halt and after a few seconds it starts again after he changes directions.]

It the library's empty? [Because frag it, Knock Out just discovered that his Megatron is here and that puts their not-really-but-quite relationship into a new level of dangerous. It makes it somewhat more exciting too, all things considered.]

I'm almost there.

I can make sure it is before you get here, cherry bomb.

See you in a few minutes.

[And that's his cue to do a sweep of the library and make sure no one else is present.]

Torture? [And he missed it? Bummer.] Who was the poor soul?

I bet the Police force is running around like headless chickens trying to catch the one who did it. Who the mech is already in jail? [Maybe it was good that he missed it after all.]

[A hand goes to his shoulder.]

[A creepy Shockwave hand.]

Nonetheless, it is imperative that I verify with instruments.

Are you going to kick them out? For me? I'm touched. [Knock Out sounds amused and more like his usual self for the first time since he woke up.

The medic still checks if someone's around and then lock the door before approaching Smokescreen.]

I'm gone for a week and hell break loose. This is a sign that I can't leave you unsupervised.

Hey, you should know by now there's a lot I'd do for you, cherry bomb.

[When the other locks the door and approaches, Smokescreen looks him over--a worried gleam in his optics as he does so--doorwings twitching as he rests his hands on his hips to resist the urge to touch.

For the moment.]

Guess you can't. No more passing out on me, okay? ...You had me pretty worried.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Having been to the Badlands recently, say no more.

[He does, even if he doesn't want to admit it. And he will forever question why.] A lot, hm? You shouldn't say that sort of things, someone might take advantage.

[Does that mean that you won't come closer and give him a 'welcome home' kiss, Smokescreen? He's disappointed. Jokes aside, Knock Out is a bit disappointed, but he's been so stressed since he woke up that he will ignore the feeling.]

Worry? now what a silly thing to say, rookie. I am always fine, one way or the other. Did I just pass out? I can't really remember. Tell me we weren't doing anything fun and I missed it.

[Hey, it did cross his mind but he wasn't sure if you'd want that right away.]

No, this all happened pre-fun, I promise.

[His doorwings twitch again and then he's moving, unable to help himself anymore as he moves forward and slides his arms around the red mech, leaning in to absently nuzzle him a bit.]

I didn't know what was going on at first.

I see.

[His words a short, sharp, and not amused. Reasons or not, he's still very displeased that most of his followers were not around when he first arrived.]

You were with the other Megatron, were you not.
