[Megatron's voice waivers in and out, but otherwise is mostly discernible.]

[ curse CJ for telling him to be wary of Megatrons in general. Does that guy really think Starscream would listen to that? ]

...M-Megatron?

[ he sounds so hopeful. ;A; ]

Yay phone tags XD

[a_father_to_his_men]

Sta...ream? Is th... you my f....d?

[Megatron was... fairly certain he was hearing his Starscream, and while he had no way of gauging time, if Starscream was here then... something must have happened.]

It... ...e, I am ge.... ...sistance ba... to Ha...n.

[loyalflier]

[ vented sigh of relief there. then it's replaced with nothing but worry. ]

Yes, yes it is me. Now stop speaking before something is further damaged. Thundercracker is on his way, yes?

I will be waiting at the clinic.

[ oh he is going to fuss, mister. likely annoy Knock Out in the process too. ]

[Audio]

[notyourblueangel]

[The roar of turbines is audible in the background.]

Starscream, I'm almost to his position. We'll meet you at Knock Out's.

[Reporting to him for two reasons: 1) it's just the right thing to do, this is "his" (Stars') Megatron after all, 2)....well, habit. Chain of command and all that. He doesn't really thing about it, just does it.]

[Audio]

[loyalflier]

[ it's all right. He doesn't realize it either. ]

Report his condition as well, if you don't mind.

[Audio]

[notyourblueangel]

Yes, sir.

  [Later…sticking to audio since he's busy patching wounds.]

  Starscream, it's Thundercracker.  I've located Lord Megatron.  Most notable injuries seem to be a head wound that's affected vision with one optic almost out, a severed hand, and his nav is down.  Beginning field repairs now.

[Audio]

[loyalflier]

[ asdfasd sir isn't necessary!

but after a bit - and much anxiety - hearing TC relaxes him... for all of the time it takes for a damage report. the silence is audible, really. it's like you can almost taste Starscream's unease and worry. ]

I should be there...

[ ;A; and it's taking everything he has not to flip out. ]

[Audio] LOL Poor Star XD

[notyourblueangel]

...

[Oh, yeah, he can hear it.  And he's having to bite /his/ glossa to not comment on the juxtaposition of the actual reaction and the one he finds himself half-expecting, even KNOWING this flyer is the polar opposite.  If you hear something enough times, it tends to stick, after all.]

I'm sending our coordinates.  I'm sure I could manage by myself - [At least...he's /pretty/ sure, though Megatron IS notably bigger than he is.] - but having a second flyer will get him to the medbay that much quicker and easier.

[Audio] ;^;

[loyalflier]

I...

[ augh. yeah. TC can hear the shifting of metal. giving him an invitation like that. ]

I'm on my way.

[ at top speed too. ]

[Audio] Feel free to jump into the action thread above, if it's okay with Demothi too. =3

[notyourblueangel]

[He understands.  He truly does.]

  We'll be here.

[a_father_to_his_men]

Stars....m it... ...od to hear ...ou my fr...nd.

My vo....er is no... ...maged, the... ...s inte...ance a... any dis...ce from Ha...en.

Yes, Thu...crack... is on hi... ...ay her...

I a... not su...sed ...uld wor... if yo... we...n't or com... for ...e you... self.

[loyalflier]

[ well... that puts some worries to ease. then again, knowing his great leader, Starscream still wonders about his condition... ]

To be fair, it is always good to hear from you - even if I am not sure that this can really count at the moment.

And don't tempt me to fly out myself. Don't think that I didn't consider it!

[a_father_to_his_men]

Starscream, when have I ever managed to keep you from doing anything once you have your mind set to it?

[It was a bit tempting to have Starscream come out to meet him, he missed the other flyer greatly.]

((Pretend there is still interference, phone tagging makes it hard to get that to happen.))

[loyalflier]

[ oh he'll be coming. sooner or later. ]

You would be surprised. There seem to be quite a few of you that can make me see reason.

[a_father_to_his_men]

Then I will count my blessings as they are, for sometimes you go beyond reasonable need to take care of things. Not that it is ever unappreciated, simply that I worry for your own sake, with how much you put your own wellness aside to do so.

((Wooo more phone tags, so again please imagine interference.))

[loyalflier]

[ can you hear him fluster and sputter. ]

I-I do not! You are the one that should take your well being into account more often than I!
