[No video for you, kids. Gunmax isn't about to put his face all over some mystery space internet. You do get to listen to him complain, though.]

Oookay then, now that I'm pretty sure I'm not having some kind of sensory malfunction, I figured I oughta start getting information out of the locals. The creepy dudes in the robes already dropped what I assume are the basics on me, but there's gotta be more to this than "hi, welcome to the robot planet. You're stuck here forever, make yourself at home". I kind of had things to do back home. Important things. Things that didn't include being kidnapped by alien robots.

Anyway. It's probably a long shot, but if any Brave Police just happen to be hanging around here, shoot me a heads up. Oh, and if anyone happens to find a really big motorcycle, that's mine. Try not to mess with it, yeah?

[Nope not even dropping a name. What a courteous guy right. He grumbles something to himself before killing the feed.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He tilts his head. That's a new sound.]

[He shrugs a bit, when Gunmax regains his ability to speak. It had to be said. It really did.]

Just making sure you really don't remember anything.

Well that's a hell of a way to try to jog someone's memory! Where'd you even get that!?

[It wasn't from hanging around Deckerd or McCrane, THAT'S for sure]

[At least he's reacting as indignantly...]

A friend. She taught it to me. For when someone is being very foolish.

I mean, "buttfuck"? Really? Isn't that a little harsh to use if someone's just being stupid? You do know what that means, right?

Yes! Don't explain! You already did!

So you knew! And you called me a buttfuck anyway!

I mean, I don't know if I should be offended or amused, but damn this is weird!

[He just looks uncomfortable.]

It. Was a habit.

[Sort of. Not really. It was kind of the only thing he could ever say to rattle Gunmax.]

... should I go, then?

Calling me that was a habit? I must have really pissed you off.

[Not that gunmax pissing people off was something NEW or anything. He gives the winged wierdo a shrug.]

You don't have to, but if you got somewhere to be, I won't stop you.

Sometimes. But... you said you were Shadowmaru's friend. It was enough.

[To try and be civil. Besides. He'd ended up being important to Kagerou too and sdjfhd;sfjkds]

[FEELINGS ARE HARD.]

... do you know where the medics are, yet? To change your engine over?

[Gunmax relaxes a bit. This Kagerou dude was weird, but he seemed okay.

The biker does frown at the next bit, though]

Nah, no idea. To be honest, I don't like the idea of someone I don't know opening me up.

There isn't much to be done. Gasoline is rare, here. You'll run out too quickly.

[He looks away, arms folding. He's still not totally comfortable with this, but he has to try.]

... Ask for Ratchet.

He's the one who worked on me.

[just gonna be a grumbly buttfuck for a second here]

Fine, fine. Did this Ratchet guy screw anything up?

[Yeah, well, that's familiar. So he just waits.]

No. He didn't. I'm still alive, aren't I?

[~~Funny you should say that~~]

Fair enough, I guess. Probably gonna drag someone along to make sure he doesn't pull anything on me.

[O hi trust issues]

[Shhh irony is lost on him.]

I'm sure any of the Brave Police would go, if you asked.

[Including himself. But, well. Probably best to broach the whole "By the way, I'm part of your team now" thing a little later.]

[omg so kawaii]

I'm sure they would, I'm not to worried about that part.

[hey man if the dudes say you're cool then you're probably cool]

Then... I don't think you'll have a problem, being converted.

[There's that awkward silence again, except--]

Make sure it's the right Ratchet, if you do look for him. His optics are blue... and he sounds... older.

Like the mechanic did. Back where we come from.

There's more than one guy named Ratchet? You'd think they coulda thought up a better name than something that corny.

[oooh you just had to go and mention THAT GUY. THAT GUY that Gunmax might never see again since he's stuck on stupid robot planet now.

BUT if it bums him out at all he doesn't show it because WHAT ARE FEELINGS.]

Gotcha, I'll keep that in mind.

It's... complicated. They say they come from different worlds...

[He just shakes his head.]

[ALTERNATE UNIVERSE things aren't really a good subject anyway, given certain past events. He just nods, though, reassured.]

Good.

Different planets, or are we dipping into some kind of crazy alternate universe crap?

[no it's an awesome subject you nerd]

The latter. The alternate universe part.

You know what, just... Sure. Yeah. Okay! They say nothing's impossible, right? So the sooner I accept all this, the sooner I can-

...I don't know yet. I'll figure it out!

...

Are you all right?

I'm super, thanks for asking.

[he'll get over it]

...

You're welcome.

[Kagerou he wasn't being--]
