POST-EVENT (4/6): VIDEO OTA | Private message to Perceptor | Action OTA

[neededthat]

[The video flickers on and Ratchet appears on screen. In his hands were, well, a pair of hands. They were of a deep blue hue as well as yellow accents. But yes, just a pair of hands. The old bot looks tired, exhausted from all this.]

Been busy these past few weeks. If anyone needs any assistance with these effects from these strange energon deposits, please come by the Solarian medbay. I will see what I can do. I, myself, was affected by Red Energon, but, I believe my effects are wearing off by now.

[He soon lifts one of those hands up.]

Sentinel, your hands are ready. Whenever you have time, please come by.

[PRIVATE TO PERCEPTOR]

If you could come by sometime today, there's something I'd like to show you.

[ACTION]

[Ratchet was known to be a hermit, but with this energon nonsense, Ratchet had stayed indoors. It was about time he actually got out and about. Transforming into his alternate form, he raced down out of the Solarian Temple, and into the vast land of Haven.

It was nice to get out. To have a nice drive. Simple, and nothing strenuous.]

Comments

[deadlydoctor]

Yes, it's 'was'. I was only explaining how it felt back then. [He doesn't want anything to do with mr. Crazypants anymore. He glares back at Ratchet, clearly upset.]

Yes, that's right. Nothing seems to fix whatever that crystals caused.

[neededthat]

[He vents a heavy sigh.]

Energon and organics do not mix. [He purses his lips and shakes his head, rubbing his helm.]

If only I learned more about human medicine back on earth,

[deadlydoctor]

I am very aware. [He really tried anything he could think of to fix the kid and came out with no solution.]

I learned quite a bit and it's not helping anyway. I can only hope the effect wear off quickly for him too.

[neededthat]

If it doesn't, I'll have to dive into some more research on these strange energon crystals.

[For now, he leans against his nearby desk, rubbing the venter of his helm crest, but he does peer back at Knock Out.]

I never thought you would take in a human, even as an autobot.

[deadlydoctor]

[You had to mention that. Knock Out looks away, optics bright and trying not to huffs.]

Neither did I, It kind of happened. Besides, I needed an assistant. [That's his excuse and he will stick to it.]
