 [Wheeljack wasn't one to question things, really. But when something goes wrong in his world, there's -usually- repurcussions for said thing that went wrong.  So...you can see the confusion when he opens up the feed. He's SOMEWHERE in Solus's temple--the lack of indents and scorch marks are a key sign that it's not his room--eyebrow perked.]

So uh...can you guys do me a favour and just watch this for me?

[Before you can even give an answer, he sets the Link back slightly, giving a full shot of him. Grabbing a grenade.

And pulling the pin--PLEASE NO WHEELJACK. 

He sets it a few feet away, folding his arms. And...well, like it should, it detonates. Smoke billows through the whole room, the walls once untouched by scorch are now charred black, and the Link may have bounced a little from the impact.



But...Wheeljack walks out of it, and aside from scorch to match the walls, looks relatively unharmed.]

That's not normal. I'm good but I'm not -that- good.


[Well no shit, Wheeljack.]

[deadlydoctor]

[Le sigh.]

...yep, same disease. Did you find any crystals recently?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...

[He has to actually think on that. He's been doing a lot of excavating lately. But nothing noteworthy. Not like what Knock Out's talking about.]

Maybe? We're talkin' Energon, right?

[deadlydoctor]

Yes, white energon. Do you still have it with you?

Skylynx found the opposite, black energon and he was, wait for it...playing with kittens.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

I think...Why? Got some kinda hair brained scheme?

[Blink blink. Sorry, that last part's lost on him, Doc.]

A what.

[deadlydoctor]

People finds crystals. People starts to act and feels strange.

If it looks like a turbofox, barks like a turobfox and runs like a turobox...It's not rocket science, the crystal must be the problem. I found some pink ones but I am not affected by anything.

Kitties. Those are cats, little organics animals with sharp claws and fur.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Well if the crystal you're talkin' about is the so-called problem and you're not having a problem with the crystal, I think there's a problem with your logic, Doc.


I'm no rocket scientist, but I know problems.

[deadlydoctor]

I always have been an exception to the rule. Besides, pink energon is really common here, is the one that a lot of mechs from different realities use as fuel so it doesn't count.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

So...why bring it up.

[He's actually trying to think here.]

If it was common then it wouldn't even phase ya, would it?

[deadlydoctor]

Becuase usually those crystals don't appear outside Solus temple.

I was pointing out how something might be wrong with the way energon grows in the planet in general.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...Wait, you're sayin' the place might be contaminated? Like...with whatever I drank?

[deadlydoctor]

Please don't start being paranoid, I had enough with Starscream and Megatron.

I can't tell you what is happening because I really don't know but the crystals are the key and we should investigate them. I'm already doing that.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

You're askin' the Wrecker if he's paranoid. You new here, doc?

[He was just making sure you knew if what you were saying sounded crazy.]

[deadlydoctor]

[..]

I should have seen that coming, don't I?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[AREN'T YOU SO GLAD YOU'RE FRIENDS NOW? 8D]

Hehe, Welcome to the team, Doc.

[Consider that your Wrecker-style Autobot initiation.]

[deadlydoctor]

[ECSTATIC T_T]

Do you have a 'must annoy the team medic' monthly quota to fill or I am just blessed?

[Wohooo. Much better than the Deception-style initiation, that involved more physical pain and yelling.]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Heh, don't count yourself special. I'd ask the Doc how he handled things, pretty sure ya got some similar results.

But hey, consider it your welcome wagon.

[Looks like someone's finally accepted you.]

[deadlydoctor]

And here I thought we had something. You are breaking my heart, Jackie.

Thank you then. [He's touched, at least a little.]
