[Some people don't react to change well. And with the pillar event over and done with, and everyone back to normal, the reaction was only worse. Everyone came back okay, things should have been well and good, right? Not for everyone, and it's not even someone who went down there. Wheeljack had two people close to him affected, and in turn, got affected in his own way.

It was way too close of a call. A reality check, if you will.

It's had a lot of side effects on the Wrecker. Sleeping less, unable to keep still (Then again, his boons from Solus helped the fatigue), and keeping himself busy. He'd even taken a little haven out in Solus's sector (That's where his 'scouting missions' have been leading, for those who've met up with him). Oh Wheeljack, we thought you were just starting to get better!

The sound of metal clangs in the background as Wheeljack brings more into his little mancave. In fact, when the feed pans out, it shows a lot of diverse metal. Another thing he couldn't explain was his affinity for identifying metals. It wasn't a knowledge he'd previously known, at least not to the extent as this. Like Primus he'd ever ask about it though. He knows by now that strange thing happening = First Forged did something. Don't mess with the pattern, it doesn't mess with you.]

Adamantium. Can't say I'm disappointed.

[That was how he was spending his time lately. Keeping busy, doing something. Solus had granted him one of her forges before, but without that boon now, he had to do things the old fashioned way: his own personal smelting pit for heat, and the tools he had around him. To be honest, he's in a cave with a box of scraps.

A hand goes along the back of his neck, a gesture he'd picked up as he inspects some of his findings.]

Whelp, time to get to work.

[Wheeljack what are you doing.]

...Adamantium.. [He repeats it, looking thoughtful for a second.] Yeah, good metal to worth with, definitely.

[Then he just looks confused for moment after he says it. Where'd that come from? But he shakes his head before he speaks up again.]

Heh, doesn't sound like a bad plan. Start workin' and see what you wind up with.

[It's awkward. Wheeljack's mainly just assuming Bulkhead's agreeing with him just to agree. To make it not seem triple the strange. It wouldn't surprise him--it'd be what he'd do.]

Pretty much. Prowl gave me that armory, and I'd like to have some scrap in there in case somethin' hits the fanblades.

Best weapons come from here.

[A thumb tapped his own chestplate.]

[It is awkward, and for the time being, Bulk just...brushes it off. It was weird, and he really didn't want to think about it. Last time thoughts like that were apparently in his head, it nearly didn't end well. For now, he's ignoring it. There's other things to think about.]

Yeah, better to be ready to go, then to not be. [He nods in agreement.] So they did give you the one at police HQ? Nice.

If I can help any..buildin' weapons, moving them to the armory, or anything. Let me know. I'm willing to help.

[Probably for the best, right now. Because Wheeljack would deny it til the scraplets came home.]

Yeeep. Finally talked Sirens into lettin' me have one. Granted I gotta give him access to it, but...doubt he's gonna go on a shootout..

[It was more of a cold-war strategy than anything.]

...Thanks, Bulk. I'm probably gonna take you up on that. Collectin' scrap, mostly. Can't fit much in my trunk.

[Works for him, thought it is disconcerting anyway.]

Anybody else got access to it, besides you? Or just him?

[It makes sense, he just can't help wondering who all has access to it.]

Heh, I do got a good sized trunk. [Bulk gets it, he is more of a building builder than he is a weapons builder.] But collectin' scrap's fine. Just tell me when and where.
