[accidentalish video]

[the device appears to be balanced on the altar in megatronus's temple. ratchet thought it was a device to record his 'surgery']

[which is exactly what it's doing]

Stop struggling you stupid drone! I'm trying to do you a favour here!

[oh, that poor acolyte. there's a lot of energon on the altar, as well as all up ratchet's arms. particularly observant viewers may note a little bit on the wall behind him, too. looks like this wasn't his first attempt]

Remember your friend? He was doing so well until the idiot went and died on me. All I want to do is see what makes you tick, then maybe I can upgrade you so you give more coherent answers! Another Cybertron, honestly!

[he tears out a mechanism and puts it aside]

This would be so much easier with my tools...

[said as he practically shoves his arm inside it up to the elbow. someone, please save the poor thing]

[Like an opportunistic vulture, Pharma seems to have been summoned by the gore.]

My, what an arresting drive for medical advancement you have!

Your technique could use a little work though.

[AH SENPAI]

I assure you, in the operating theatre I am more delicate with my patients.

This, however. Was just for fun.

I see- the difference between business and pleasure. I can hardly fault you for that. Incidentally, did you happen to learn anything from the innards of your erstwhile acolyte?

[he shrugs.]

Squeeze a few of their organs and they'll scream loud enough to blow out their vocalizer. The lack of uniqueness among them that hints towards mass production.

Obviously, I've yet to see if differing temple acolytes are any different.

[ratchet claps his hands together and grins. he loves it when people take interest in his work!] Anyway! Who might you be?

An experiment for the future, yes?

My designation is Pharma. Are you a medic as well, or just morbidly fascinated by internal mechanisms?

If the other mechs here can get it through their heads that I'm not hurting anyone.

Mine is Ratchet, CMO of the Autobots. I work closely with Optimus Prime.

[so, yeah. he's a medic.]

Except the acolytes?

[His optics widen at that name] R- No. You can't be him. [Especially since you look a lot like a boxier Prowl.]

Who cares about some drones?

[he thought you were cool, man.]

Do I have to send you my identity number? [he smiles happily. he will, man.] What would I gain from lying?

[this would be a lot less awkward if it wasn't for his alternate being sane.]

As long as its in the pursuit of medical advancement, I can't imagine why anyone would complain. [Except, you know, everyone always does. Besides Liege- Liege was awesome like that.]

...You must be from a different universe then. [The universe of his wildest dreams~]

How fortunate that here is a Ratchet out there with some sensibility! Your counterpart was much too stubborn.

"A different universe" seems to be the answer to anything here.

[you'd fit right in, senpai.]

I had a video reply from another "Ratchet". He didn't understand what I was doing and took to repeatedly calling me a monster. Is that what all my counterparts are like?

I only know my own, but that sounds exactly like something he would say. It's rather frustrating- he could have been a brilliant doctor.

Mm, Optimus Prime did get quite bored of ethics holding his research teams back.

[ratchet claps his hands together.] Wheeljack, First Aid and I all had a lot of fun with the new laws!

Even if some mechs do have to be dragged kicking and screaming to my medbay. That's the cost of advancement!

[What a bizarre world this one comes from! Optimus Prime bored by ethics?]

You had a First Aid as well, hm? [Someone he's sure this one wasn't a Wrecker's fan.]

Agreed. Now if only the dragging part weren't so alarming to the police force around here.

Ugh, they've already swarmed all over this broadcast. I suppose I'll be in a cell for the next few days.

Although, given the, ah, quality of this place it shouldn't be too hard to break out of.

[personally he hopes one of the guards gets too close so he can necksnap the fucker!]

Oh? Maybe I'll drop by for a visit then. [Hahaha so casual about imprisonment.]

If you want. Might alleviate the boredom.

[yeah no ratchet gives zero fucks about being put in prison.]
