[Oh hey, it's Ironhide. And the feed is... slightly askew, given that he's holding it in one hand, while the other, off-screen, is occupied.]
[... occupied holding a familiar cop-car robot slung over his shoulder.]
So... uh. Any medics here been seein' Prowl come in lately?
[He sounds remarkably calm about this, even though his expression is scowling, concerned. He shifts the unconscious weight on his shoulder.]
And no, I didn't do nothing. We were havin' a drink and he just... conked out. Don't think he even had half of one.
Where'm I taking him?
[IS THERE A DOCTOR AROUND? Because despite his words, he's actually a little worried right now.]

Didn't think he had a-- many friends around here.
no subject
With a superiority complex like his, it's amazing there is not a line outside the hospital room to punch him.
[Which, if Skids were inclined to, he'd start selling tickets to do.]
However, I don't have any intention of punching him, so its okay.
no subject
[Maybe if he were on his feet, and deserved it.]
Good. You better not.
no subject
[Skids might be grinning. Just a little.]
I won't. The name is Skids, by the way. I would not be surprised if we'd met, but... [He taps his head.] ...I might not remember if we did. You're Ironhide, right?
no subject
[Except there might have been punchings he doesn't remember. Which doesn't sit very well.]
I seen you around here. Off and on. Don't remember seein' you before this place though.
No offense. Don't remember a lot of bots before here.
[He grunts -- yep, that's his name.]
no subject
That's probably because he's not plotting anyone's punishments.
[He's surprised to hear that someone else is a little short in the memory department, though. It has his instant sympathy.]
Its alright. It is. I've got a few dozen years missing, myself. I didn't realize that I might not be the only one. Is it weird if I ask what period of your life you don't recall?
no subject
... Punishments?
[He squints. This is... really difficult to explain.]
I think it's... somethin' like five million...
no subject
Yeah. Well. You know. Prowl. He has a very definite sense of right and wrong, and he has towed people by their ankle-struts across the Haven before for looking at him strangely.
[Its not the exact story, but it is close.]
...
I.
Wasn't expecting that. Did you miss the entire war?
no subject
[He glances over at the comatose frame, almost suspiciously.]
[They need to have words when Prowl wakes up.]
...
No. I remember... fightin' on Cybertron. For Optimus. With Optimus. But not a whole lot... 'sides that.
no subject
Or, well, I would if I hadn't gotten patched up since then. The ground still shows some blue on some rocks, though.
[And he won't mention that he'd been a spark-eater just moments before Prowl had decided to detain him.]
I...
Yeah. I understand. I remember some parts of the beginning of the war, and I know that a war happened and I wasn't on Cybertron for it, but...
The rest is just a blank for me. It makes me worry that there's someone I'm missing or soemthing I should be doing.
[He can't say he likes it much.]
I wonder if we were hit by the same bug.
no subject
[That's really disconcerting. What all has he missed?]
That's kinda a little worse than just missin' a chunk of current events. Least I remember the past and scrap.
...
I kinda doubt it. Unless you woke up in the middle of nowhere Cybertron, surrounded by real bugs.
no subject
Unless you'd let me come pay my respects in person?
[Oh please. Please, he's even got the permanent marker ready.]
Real bugs? [Okay, now this is a story he has to hear.] No, I woke up in an alien spaceship surrounded by...well, the alien spaceship. But it did transform and try to kill me, if that counts.
no subject
Yeah, real ones.
... It did what now?
no subject
[Its much better if it is a surprise.]
That sounds like a bad nightmare.
It transformed. Into three very large robots who tried to skewer me before I threw a dead body at them.
It...
Okay, I promise it sounds better if I'm telling it correctly.
no subject
[Because that's just weird. Seriously weird.]
Never got no better, either.
Uh... yeah. I'm guessing it would. Kinda hard to make it sound any worse.
no subject
You know Prowl and surprises.
[Actually, he's now counting on the fact that you DONT know how much Prowl hates surprises.]
It always sounds better over an energon cube, actually. I don't suppose you enjoy sharing stories with a friend and a barkeeper?
no subject
I'm stickin' around though. I wanna keep an optic on him, regardless.
[He grunts. Look at him, Skids, does he really look like he doesn't like drinking?]
Maybe when he gets up. Kinda want to make sure nothin's really wrong before I go back to the bar.
