[Wellp. That sure was a fight there. Time for the survivors to report... Ironhide included. He sounds a bit downhearted, despite the fact events turned in the Police Force's favor... Or maybe he's just cranky.]

Now that's how it's done.

Piece'a Decepticon scrap metal should've been put in the melting pit, hnf.

Anyone seen the Junkpile Kid around? Wanna make sure none of that mess flew her way...



[Private to: Power Joe]
Hey, kid. When you come back around, gimme a ping. Want to talk.

You fought with us. You got wounded with us. You helped take down the fraggin' Decepticon Brute Squad.

It ain't just like that. You shed oil and precious metal with my squad, may as well have been there from the start, kid.

[He's quiet. What Ironhide says really hit home. He'd never gotten that kind of acceptance before. Not really from this world at least.]

Thanks.

[It's hard to understand a guy like PJ, but that 'thanks' held a lot of emotion. Mostly gratitude.]

Don't thank me. Nothin' to it.

[He hears it, though. And there's something more in his voice than gruff brushoff.]

You holding up okay?

[He's all smiles, not that you can tell. Ironhide, you've just made his week.]

I'll be fine. Takes a lot more than that to keep me down.

Good.

Now keep your backside parked in that medbay 'till you're cleared. You hear me?

[Says the Worst Patient Ever.]

[kungfugeek]

...Depends on your definition of 'cleared'.

[Cleared by his standards or by theirs?]

Until the medics say you can wheel yourself out of there.

Don't make me put you on watch.

Don't worry, that won't take too long!

I can feel it.

Uh huh. Sure. We'll see about that one.
