audio; [Transmission originating from: Megatronus's Temple]
So, I. I don't know how many people knew him, but I figured I might as well say something.
Shockwave - the big one - and his Driller have been missing. Sometimes they'd just go off on their own but usually not for this long. And I've looked everywhere. So I'm gonna call it.
They're. Gone.
[He pauses for a long moment before speaking again.]
I'll still be at Megatronus's temple to look after their things, until Megatronus makes me leave.

... Or the Driller would have ripped through the floor for treats while Shockwave was busy.

[Awkward pause. How do you FRIENDSHIP in those cases?]
Wanna go get a drink?
locked
[Drink. Drink! That... doesn't sound bad at all, actually.]
... Yeah. I'd like that.
locked
Nothing better for the sparkache than drowning processor in energon until you don't remember why you were worried.
locked
Something you've learned from experience, I'm guessing? Well, it seems like sound advice.
locked
...[There's a pause and Knock Out doesn't answer to Fracas's question.]It's just an advice.
locked
Still. It's. Good advice.
locked
Yeah. I'll meet you at the bar then. Right now?
locked
Now's good. I'll be there.
locked >action?
Don't be late!
[After all the recent events a drink is something Knock Out's needs too. It looks like no one's at the bar taking care of it. Knock Out pours himself a cube of high energon and waits for the ex-vehicon to show up.]
action
I won't be!
[He needs to get overcharged a little too much to be late. And... since things have worked out all right between he and Knock Out... he can hardly think of a better drinking buddy. He arrives shortly after Knock Out. The loud thudding outside might give it away. Or the dust he brushes off as he enters the bar. Those darn landings.]
action
He's glad that they had worked things out too. more allies are always a good thing, specially in his actual situation where he's not sure where he fits anymore.
There's an awkward silence when Fracas walks in. After a moment Knock Out handles him a cube, trying not to grin too much.]
If you keep that up you will need to get repainted again very soon.
action
Fracas really hasn't been sure where he fits in... ever. Especially here. So having Knock Out around as a friend is definitely helpful. He is something normal.
He takes the cube offered, chuckling a little sheepishly and smiling.]
I'm working on it, I swear. I don't want to undo all that work you put into this.
action
They're something the other is familiar with, which is good. Knock Out would say that normality is a relative term.]
Ey, as long as you warn me beforehand, feel free to practice as much as you want. But in all honestly, from all the alt modes you could choose, it had to be something with wings?
action
Come on, as if I'm big enough for something like a tank, and I'd just look ridiculous as another kind of car and we both know it. At least it wasn't a helicopter?
[Imagine this poor mook trying to work with rotors.]
Besides... I look pretty good with them.
action
No, no helicopters allowed. [Airachnid turns into one.] There's always the original Cybertronian models of transportation, you know, for old time's sake. It's not like I mind the wings, it's the seeker attitude what I can't stand. You better not get one of those.
[The world's not ready for Fracas with rotors.
He takes another sip of his drink, not saying anything but also not denying what the other mech said.]
action
Fracas takes a swig of his own cube and waggles his wings a little.]
I'd have to use these worth a hoot to get that attitude. Besides, even if I have wings I'm still a Vehicon. We don't exactly do much of the seeker attitude. And... well. I-I kinda like Earth modes. They're pretty nice, sometimes.
[All those YouTube videos clearly had an effect on him.]
Re: action
*cough*No, stop. That's sickening cute.] You can change a mech's alt mode but but you can't take the vehicon out of the mech. Only sometimes? You should have watched NASCAR when we were back on earth.
[Knock Out misses the internet too.]
action
Nope. Vehicons are vehicons, whether they have wheels or wings. I never watched much NASCAR, but I did see a lot of racing movies. Heh, I would have scanned some of those in a sparkbeat.
[The internet and movies. Those were awesome.]
no subject
That's quite a closet mindset. I'm surprised you say that after how much you changed in a year. You don't know what you missed then, NASCAR was something else. What movies?
[Knock Out agrees.]
/expies it up in here
Well... we were all in it together. All of us shared the same quarters and everything, mostly. Oh, and I've seen most of The Hasty and the Hopping Mad movies. You know, where they start out trying to hunt illegal racing gangs and then completely lose the plot and end up like a version of Lake's Eighty-Eight but with really nice rides?
Heeh
You had no privacy at all? [Knock Out makes a face. He did not know that, mostly cause back in the day he didn't care at all.] I never saw those...but I want to, now. You wouldn't happen to have them stored in your database?
it's too much fun it really is XD
ahahah I can tell
