 [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.]

...





the what.

[heartdive]

No one's ever told you about the pinkie promise? It's only the most sacred of promises.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Have the most flatlined look of disbelief, Sora. ]


I think ya just made it up. Whatever it is.


You made a promise about a colour?

[heartdive]

Augh... Wheeljack.

[ hold up his hand. waves it. SNEEZES. then displays his pinkie finger. ]

This is a pinkie.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Sorry Sora, this is the everyday headache normal people get with Wheeljack.]

That's a finger.

[WHEELJACK, COOPERATE S3G]

Okay, so 'finger promise'.

[heartdive]

We call that finger a pinkie...

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...[Cue him inspecting his own, wiggling it slightly.]

Huh. Whatever. Human terms, I'm guessin'.

What do ya do with it that makes it special?

[heartdive]

I'll show you why. Sometime. Kinda gotta be here for it, you know. Ruins the magic otherwise.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Yeah? And where exactly is 'here'. Still holed up in the medbay?

[heartdive]

Yeah... Not getting any better. Not not any worse.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Well, since you're not really goin' anywhere, how bout I stop by?


You're only a couple hallways away.

[heartdive]

I won't tell you to go away.

[ laughs. ]

Could use the company.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Heh, give me a tic, kid.

[The comm shuts off after that, and with only a few minutes of downtime, Wheeljack arrives in the medbay, immediately heading to where Sora was previously.]

How's life treatin' ya, sparky. Ya look awful.

[THANKS MAN I BET HE APPRECIATES THAT.]

[heartdive]

[ and because of that? Sora sticks out his tongue... he rolls a little onto his side and yeap. sure is his keyblade...

sure is a Thunder spell striking a safe distance in front of WJ. call him sparky huh...

but at least he's grinning. ]

I feel pretty awful too.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[The little thunder spell striking causes the Wrecker to stop, trailing from where the lightning hit back to the kid in the bed. For a moment, he's surprised...that is until he throws a smirk up, walking over.]

Let you keep your toys in bed with ya too?

[A hand reaches over, pinching some blanket between his index finger and thumb, pulling it up over his head.]

[heartdive]

[ Sora's just grinning. tired grin, but it's there all the same. maybe even some laughter when the blankets are shoved over his head. ]

Gotta practice something while I'm stuck here.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Yeah? Figured the docs meant bedrest not...

sparking.

[Yeah, that's what he's calling it. Because magic is stupid and no one believes in it.]

[heartdive]

Well you did call me 'sparky.' Figured I needed to live up to that.

[ snickering. even when sick, you can't beat this kid down. ]

Besides. I like never leave.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[It's kind of impressive how much Sora can still look on the brightside even when bedridden. Seriously, kid, does ANYTHING get you down?]

Hey, before ya got stuck here no one asked ya to shack up here.

[a playful point at the kids chest.]

That's your brilliant idea.

[heartdive]

[ the poking? Sora tries to laugh but instead he just starts to cough. he snatches up some water so he can drink it and calm down. ]

Ugh...

[ rubbing at face. ]

No... That was pretty much Knock Out too.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Oh god did he just break him? That hand jerks away like he touched something scorching hot, eyes widening.]

...

What'd I tell ya, don't listen to the Doc.

[heartdive]

Why not?

[ what's with you guys and being against something like trust? ]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Hey, don't get me wrong, the guy's turned himself around.


Just sayin' he might paint your face or somethin'.

[heartdive]

[ a shrug. ]

Probably fair, you know. I've gotten my gross hands on his paint job and stuff.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Tragic.

[Coming from the person who sports dinghy white because he never takes a bath.]
