... Has anyone heard from Smokescreen, of late? He's... been suspiciously silent.

[There's an awkward silence, before his tone suddenly turns brusque. As if brushing off the other words.]

Likely, he's become bored of his studies with me, and is avoiding the work. I'll... simply have to drag him back, if that's the case...

[He trails off, something in that tone failing him.]

That said... I'm in the middle of some very intensive trials. So I would prefer any and all interruptions or visitors to be kept to the bare minimum. Unless you're answering the aforementioned question.

[Translation: I'm working so hard so I don't think about missing people.]

[The feed is then full of that awkward silence until he simply shuts it off.]

In what world I have the same facial structure as Bulkhead or Ratchet? [Seriously man, are you blind?] But nevermind, point is you are not from our universe. Got it.

Interesting.

[sciencetank]

It isn't identical, that's hardly what I meant. You share elements of the same design. As Skids shares elements with those like Ambulon, or Magnus.

He's not identical to any of them, but portions of his frame bear a strong similarity, regardless.

[deadlydoctor]

If you say so....Skid's far more attractive than Ambulon, though.

[sciencetank]

That's nice. And irrelevant.

[Knock Out just chuckles before waving a hand.]

Let's focus on the main issue. If you find Smoke let me know, I have a few things to tell him.

[He waves his goodbyes and cuts off the feed.]
