[Audio/Video] [Transmission originating from: Solian Temple] - Tenth Offense GORE WARNING
[The audio comes on to the low rumble of wheels rolling across the ground, though eventually it stops as the one doing the rolling comes to a halt. There is no transformation noise before the owner of those wheels speaks, now clearly Barricade.]
Have you a reason to halt me?
[Someone else speaks, clearly Knock Out.]
I do, indeed. I've heard that you are the one who helped me with that clinic that has my name. I was thinking we could get to know each other again, have a tête-à-tête or perhaps.... dinner.
[Following that is the sound of crashing metal and snarling indicative of a struggle. Partway through there is a loud roaring, accompanied with ripping, screaming, and finally silence. The audio then cuts out for several minutes.]
[Barricade flicks on the video to the absolute wreck of his face – even if he very clearly looks much more the way he did before his facelift in Axiom, three of his optics are shattered – growling quietly.]
One of your medics briefly captured me. I allowed her to live because I have not the time for this sort of foolishness. However.
[Here, he raises his clawed hands. In one, he holds what looks suspiciously like a spark, dimmed and dripping blue down his arm. In his other hand is the head of Knock Out, wires and tubes dangling from the stump of its neck. Implausibly, Knock Out’s jaw is split into four parts, with a long thing that could be called a tongue hanging out.]
The next one of you fools that attempts to eat me is being fed their own spark. I will not warn you again.
((Knock Out is in red, Barricade is in bold.))

[video]
W-What happened? Oh Primus is that a tongue...
[video]
[Barricade briefly regards Knock Out's head... and tosses it over his shoulder, like a child that's lost interest in a toy.]
That was a mistake.
[video]
[Wow, harsh, Barricade.]You could have just asked for support instead of doing...that. [He waves at the spark in the mech's hand.] I understand that it was self defense but I think you are out of control.
[Video]
But what the hell was that thing? That wasn't Knock Out.]
What in the...
[Video]
[He hopes you didn't think that your chatting was private. Because that's definitely not how Barricade rolls.]
[Video]
[Video]
You are lucky he did not attempt to eat you, too.
[Video]
Yeah, I'm glad he didn't. I don't wanna be that. He didn't bite you any did he? [Was that how somebody was made like that? Being eaten?]
[Video]
He did not. However, it might be of use to find others he come into contact with. Send them to that medic that attempted to confine me.
[Video]
Yeah, good idea. Any idea where to start, or who to start with?
no subject
[Because that? That was terrifying.]
no subject
[He drops Knock Out's head, turning the deceased's spark over in his hands, watching it with his lower set of optics. He taps his claws against the metal idly as he speaks.]
Is that what you intend?
no subject
[Yes.]
Why would anyone try to eat you? Are you secretly delicious?
no subject
[Oh wait he's kind of dead. Well, whatever. He doesn't have time for this. There is something much more pressing to investigate.]
You and he associated, did you not?
no subject
Granted, it won't matter for long...he'll be back, you know.
[Though now Skids was wondering which 'him' would be arriving when the time came...new Knock-Out, or old?]
Are you referring to Knockout or to your previous incarnation?
[Because yes. To either. But in different ways.]
no subject
[She is not sure which is more shocking: KO being dead and his killer showing his head over the Link, or KO's strange transformation.]
no subject
[Barricade has no sense of humor about this. He sets the spark down off-camera, bringing the head up to examine it. He picks the 'tongue' up carefully between two claws.]
Flatline would be fascinated as to how this occurred.
[Video]
Why would he try to eat you? I thought the members of your species didn't eat each other? And what is that light?!
[Video]
Generally this activity is unacceptable and unnecessary. I suppose he thought me easy prey; he was mistaken.
[video]
Holy frag, Barricade! That's so fraggin' awesome! How'd ya do it? What'd you do first? Describe what happened! That Knock Loser was always a pain in the aft. Details, details!
[He's like a teenage girl asking for gossip.]
You an' me, we should go on a spree, yeah? Beat some Autobots up! [You can do the killing, though. Frenzy doesn't want to be someone's slave for a week again.]
