[The feed clicks on just in time for a rather loud metallic clang, and a yelp. Hope nobody was sleeping at this time.]

Ow.

[And then the familiar deep voice of Bulkhead. He groans a moment, before there's the sound of metal scraping against metal. Seems where ever he picked to hide out, wasn't a very good fit for when he changed back. Whoops.]

Stupid fraggin' pillar. Good riddance to it. [He grumbles a moment, before he realizes the feed is on.] Uh, hey. I'm back, finally. [Man is it so nice to be able to TALK again!]

Even if I was here before, as that stupid wolf thing. Guess the pillar left parting gifts. Heh. At least we don't gotta worry about it anymore. Sorry to anybody I worried, I couldn't even talk then. Everybody okay?

[And after a bit, once he gets himself situated there's a locked message to the rest that went to the core.]

[Locked to those that went to the core.]

Uh, everybody else back to normal? Has Thundercracker been found yet? Thundercracker, if you hear this, check in, huh?

[And not long after that, another locked message.]

[Locked to Solus Prime.]

Uh, if you're here again, Solus. I hope you hear this. I saw my glyph glowin', and helped me figure out how to take out the pillar.

I, uh...just wanted to say thanks. Whatever it was that you did. [He's assuming it was her doing.] It was a big help. Thank you.

[It's genuine and appreciative, and he hopes she does get this.]

I...I looked, Bulk. Thought I lost ya for awhile.

[It's awful, but there's relief in those eyes. He would kick himself admitting that he wanted Bulkhead here than back home, where he's probably needed. But...you know, selfish reasons.]

Scrap.

You're good now, right? Got a checkup? After the Tox-En I'm not lettin' ya shrug anythin' off, partner.

I was here the whole time. I just..couldn't talk. Everything I tried to say, nobody could understand. Even tried the link, and some still didn't get it.

[Bulk's determined not to go home. Not without taking Wheeljack with him anyway. They've been through too much together, to just abandon him.]

Yeah, yeah I'm good. Nothin' feels off. [He's getting more worried about Wheeljack, though, than himself.] Where you at?

...You're good now. That's all that fraggin' matters.

[It's not an angry tone. If anything, he's cursing out of relief, as if assuring himself that someone else didn't leave.]

'm in Solus's sector...scoutin'.

Yeah, it's what matters. Hopin' it doesn't happen again. [And he doesn't want to think of it happening again.] Think that'll be my last adventure for a while, unless it's got to do with Wreckers or construction.

[He doesn't blame him for the cursing. Bulk's tired of people disappearing too. They're losing too many people.]

...want company? [He's tempted to just go find him, though.]

Yeah.

[That was rather quick. As if he wouldn't even hesitate for it right now. He just wants to see it for himself, that Bulkhead's actually there.]

Down by the ravines. I've been...scoutin' for some metal.

By the ravines, got it.

[And Bulk's not going to hesitate to go meet up with him. He heads down to the ravines, transforming back to robotmode once he gets close, looking around for the other Wrecker.]

[When Bulkhead arrives, Wheeljack's inspecting the sides of a canyon wall. Solus's sector was riddled with little pathways like this. From afar, it almost looked like Wheeljack was recently lost in it, but upon closer inspection, he seems to be...

feeling the wall.

For something.]

[In fact, he doesn't even see Bulkhead at first.]

[Bulk took in the sights as he got there. The landscape around the temple was definitely interesting.

Still his attention is soon taken by Wheeljack. He stays quiet for a bit, stopping his approach. He tilts his head as he watches. Wondering what he's doing.]

Jackie?

[He finally speaks up, after the other doesn't seem to realize he's there.]
