[Video] [Transmission from: Solian Sector] - Eighth Offense

[namesnotprowl]

[Barricade seems to be in a slightly better mood than the last time he was on-screen. In fact, he looks rather pleased. Like a cat that finally managed to catch their owner's goldfish without being noticed.]

So. 'Bout a month ago, I was diggin' around in the Junk Pile and I found something from my world. Something big.

[He shifts, letting the video shift with him and that... that is a ship. It's got a lot of carbon scoring and bullet scars on it, but other than that, it's not in completely terrible shape. Barricade pats one of the rotating turrets on it.]

Been working on the poor thing as much as I can, and I think I've got her flight-ready finally. I was just wonderin'...

[He grins widely.]

Anyone want t'go on a test flight with me?

[Locked to Skids]

As I recall, I owe you a demonstration of a certain pair of appendages, and this seems like a perfect opportunity.

If you're up for it, that is.

Well. Some of the fliers could reach it maybe. Just that we can't. Unless someone put a pillared space bridge he and one there.

That I do.

[Which is only un-awkward about at the moment because piloting.]

If I couldn't, you'd've seen them already. I keep the cables outta the way, and the microfilaments don't come out 'til they're needed.

A pillared space bridge?

[Do go on.]

...

Say that last part again.

[Not that it will be any less disturbing.]

[Locked]

[namesnotprowl]

Mm-hmm. Runs through a network of mobile pillars. One of our last Primes built it. And he constructed enough pillars to move entire planets. Don't like him, but I'll admit. He's a genius.

[He was wondering how much he could weird you out while keeping you intrigued.]

The cables have microfilaments. I hope you didn't think they connected through prayer and diligent effort.

Any idea what they look like? I mean, it seems like it would be something to watch out for if it happened to fall through the Lambda...

[Then Skids would have something to fly, too! Well. No. But something to puzzle over, at least.]

No.

No.

Not exactly.

I mean, when I had shall we say 'dextrous appendages,' they did not come with microfilaments. I'm just documenting the differences, that is all.

When can I come see?

[Locked]

[namesnotprowl]

A very good idea. I could send you the files of what I've got, if you want. But you'd have to basically jailbreak the control pillar to get them to work; they only respond to Sentinel Prime.

Mine, that is.

[As hilarious as the idea of them trying to get Blurr's Sentinel to play along is...]

Difference between combat-grade and data uplink, I guess.

And the answer t'that is, when are you available to see them?

[Locked]

[skidaddle]

Yeah, send those.

Or better yet, I'll pick them up when I come see you, which...

[He pulls up his weekly schedule. For the most part it is free, but he made the schedule and he's going to stick to it.]

How about tomorrow?

[Locked]

[namesnotprowl]

[Ooh, schedules. Scary.]

Tomorrow sounds good. Gives me time to get any kinks worked out of the flight system, and to see what's useful in those files.

[Considering all of that dealt with Chicago, he'd prefer to remove all the irrelevant bits. Like the massacring and the death and general destruction.]
