[Oh hey, it's Bulkhead. Back to normal, even with normal eyes and voice]

Okay, that was weird.

[Thank you mister obvious. Not to mention a huge understatement. Seriously, what the pit. He liked Knock Out and called him boss, and thought he'd been a con instead of a bot.

.....and some how he'd known about space bridges. He groans softly as he rubs at his helmet for a moment before speaking again.]

At-at least maybe one good thing came out of it.

[Still he had people he needed to check on.]

[Private to Wheeljack.]

Jackie, you uh...you back yourself too?

[After sending that message off, he stops as a thought hit him. His expression turning a little worried.]

Uh...anybody seen Miko?

. . . want help?

[A year ago, he'd have NEVER considered offering any such thing. Work on a groundpounder path? Pffft, as if. Even now, at best he'd normally not even consider himself suitable for such work, whether he wanted to engage in it or not. But . . . he . . . needs a distraction, needs something to /do/. And . . . the harder and more physically demanding, the better.]

[Excuse him for a second as he just stares and blinks. Okay, he wasn't expecting to get an offer to help build them. Though it's certainly not unwelcome.]

Uh...sure, we can always use another hand. [His shocked expression shifting to a curious one, with a slight smile.]

What experience do you have in construction? [It won't change his answer, but knowing what to expect, and what they'd have to show him how to do, would be good too.]

. . . none.

["You're right, stupid idea. Forget I said anything." - he's about a klik from voicing those thoughts, but holds them in check to see how the Wrecker responds.]

....

[He's quiet for a moment as he takes it in, before he nods. He should've figured, but...it was better to check than assume one way or another.]

We can work with that, and show you what to do. Long as you're willing to learn.

[The Seeker appreciates the acceptance more than he'd thought he might, releasing tension from his wings he'd not realized he'd been holding. He nods.]

I'm teachable.

…thank you.

[Loosen up TC. Bulkhead's not that mean, plus you and him are on good terms. He was just surprised a jet would want to help with a road. Then again...Fracas is a flyer now too.

He nods at that, giving a smile. He knows how it is to be bored here too, and wanting something to do. Mainly why he got back into construction here. Just something to do.]

Welcome. I'll keep ya updated on when we start workin' on them again. Need to check with my co-workers in the meantime.

Thank you, Thundercracker. For the offer.

[There are those here whom he's come to trust to just accept him no matter what. Everyone else, especially Autobots, it still surprises him sometimes, subconsciously expecting to be rejected "on principle" or something.]

[He nods.]

I'll look for your call.

[If this had been when he first got here, it would be a different story. But he's talked to Thundercracker before. Gotten a bit of trust in him, especially after the battle with Tarn. Plus, Bulkhead has been trying to be more neutral toward factions here.]

I'll be in touch, Thundercracker. Stay safe. [He gives him a nod, and the slightest of smiles, before he cuts the connection.]
