[Albert has finally woken up in Solus' temple. His brain is a mess, trying to distangle the events that took place in the past few days. Between meeting Tarn and now, everything else seemed to be a great big fuzz. The confusion, the memory gaps, the pain...he's felt it before.

He must have died. Again. First time on Earth, second time on Cybertron. What a cruel irony.

But the cyborg isn't sad, no. A bittersweet smile, miniscule and fleeting, spreads across his face. They finally took care of that nightmare, they had to.]

....did we get him?

[...Ambulon. Oh jeeze, he hoped Ambulon made it out alright.]

...you doing ok?

[The last thing he'd want is to fail his job.]

[TOO NICE.]

I'm fine. Have you checked in with a medic?

[audio]

[tearsofsteel]

Don't need one yet.

Just glad you made it out ok.

[audio]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

Still. You should make an appointment sometime in the near future.

And... I wish I could say the same for you. But... You're here now, so I guess that's all that matters.

I died once. Second round isn't as bad.

But if you need some company, I can visit.

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

What matters is you're alive now, so it's best to keep it that way.

[And the offer of non-work related company, however...]

N-No. No, that's fine. Maybe later.

[audio]

[tearsofsteel]

I'll keep that in mind.

[He gets it. Some people need time alone, Albert's no exception.]

Later, ok. Stay safe, that's all I ask.

[audio]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

Will do.

[And believe me, he really is being VERY VERY safe right now.]
