[Wow, that is one seriously FRAGGED THE FUCK OFF-looking Seeker right there.  So fragged off, in fact, that it takes him a moment before he can even form coherent words.  When he finally does, they're short, sweet, and to the point.]

I will say this only once.

It. Never. Happened!

[He raises an arm, rifle leveled at his Link device.  Yes, he really is that mad.  But . . . he stops himself and just steps over to the thing, growling as he ends the transmission with a rough, almost violent gesture.  It'll be several more minutes . . . but then he sends a few private messages.]


[Locked to Ventus]

...thanks.  For . . . that . . .

[For not just putting up with him but trying to help]


[Locked to Ravage]

Are you all right?


[Locked to Megatron]

I'm willing to meet with you, if you still want me to, sir.  And . . . if I can ask you to let me speak before shooting me.

[Not that . . . he'd try to stop you if you still decided to.  >,>]


[Locked to The Spine]

You . . . took me seriously.  Have you honestly run across such nonsense before?

[Sorry . . . he just...REALLY had to ask.  Because seriously WTF DUDE?]


[and finally - Locked to Starscream]

You can let me out now.

[He appreciates it.  Really, he does.  But...]

[loyalflier]

Hmmm. I don't know...

[ teasing tone here. ]

locked

[notyourblueangel]

Starscream!

[That's more exasperated than actually angry at all. He huffs.]

Look . . . this place does things to you sometimes. I got Skywarp's teleporting ability once, I've been turned into some kind of...griffon...thing at least that's what someone told me that bizarre mash of creatures was called, I've been some kind of enslaved alternate of myself, and now . . .

[Another huff with an edge of growl for good measure.]

Whatever it was, it's worn the frag off now. I'm fine.

[loyalflier]

[ insert chuckle here. ]

Oh you know I'll let you out. I just have a proposition for you is all.

[ might come back to all those other things later. because what. how does that even HAPPEN? ]

locked

[notyourblueangel]

[Even Thundercracker's still not entirely sure. But he'll readily oblige with as much of an explanation as he can offer.]

[Until then, the comment gets a headtilt.]

Proposition?

Locked

[im_wavin]

I'M SOOOOO SORRY! I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT I SAID! UR TOTES NOT A WIMP!

Locked

[notyourblueangel]

[Okay, that manages to deflate a LOT of the anger. He's just weary all of a sudden, but still manages a small grin for the upset kitty.]

I get it, Ravage. That wasn't you talking any more than it was me. Are you all right otherwise?

[He'd come check on you himself, but . . . he has to convince Starscream to release him first.]

Locked

[im_wavin]

Yes, but I haz to wear teh Cone of Shame now.

[glass_secret]

So, no Vorpal Dustscraplets anymore? [She couldn't help but tease.]

[notyourblueangel]

. . .

[No, really, this is him LITERALLY facepalming.]

No.

[glass_secret]

Hey, at least it's all over with.

I know I'm glad I'm not paranoid about a wooden soldier invasion.

[deadlydoctor]

Thundercracker! Thanks to Primus the dust bunnies didn't get you.

[Sorry bro, he will never let you forget this one. This is how you friendship, right?]

[notyourblueangel]

. . .

[He actually tries to answer that. He really does. And looks almost comical as he keeps pausing before any sound even comes out. Finally he settles for a scowl.]

I hate you.

[No, he doesn't mean it. That's just him failing at friendship too.]

[deadlydoctor]

[Knock Out stop himself from bursting into laughter but it's really hard.]

I'm sure than in a few years you will remember this and laugh with me, Thundercracker.

[raceme]

I agree with the sentiment. Let's forget the last weeks.

[notyourblueangel]

[single, decisive nod]

Done.

...you all right?

[Just checking. He was so engrossed with his own...issues...that he's completely unaware of what anyone else suffered.]

[raceme]

Ex-ce-lle-nt.

[There's a pause before he dares to reply.]

Aside from feeling like an idiot and thinking I might have ruined what was left of our relationship with Megatronus? I'm wonderful.

locked

[eyestothesky]

That and more. Home is... well, it's interesting, that's one way to put it.

And the dust bunnies can get pretty nasty, but that's more the Blue Matter affecting em than any inborn threat. Everyone else's dust bunnies aren't nearly so bitey.

locked

[notyourblueangel]

...

[Give him a second while just...tries to process that. Because really...what...]

Yeah, I'm sure everyone else's aren't nearly so anything.

Blue Matter? [wuzzat?]

locked

[eyestothesky]

Well, near as anyone can tell, it's the stuff that glues our reality together back home.

[nobody_number_8]

Ya know, threats like that are usually more effective when they would do more than just blow up your own communicator.

But done. I'll pretend I never heard of vorpal dustbunnies.

Too bad though; would've made another fun video to add to my collection...

[You miss out on so much good material when you're too insubstantial to do things with your communicator, yo.]

[notyourblueangel]

Hm? Threat?

[No, he really was just fragged off enough to "turn off" his Link by shooting it. So it takes him a moment to get what Axel's talking about.]

Oh. No, that...hn, never mind.

[He shakes his head.]

Are you all right? Not a ghost anymore?

[The last comes out with a small smirk, actually - yes, he's kinda teasing.]

[nobody_number_8]

[Axel smirks in return, amused.]

Nope. No more than usual, anyway. Thankfully got that taken care of before it became a serious problem, even if it was kind of an accident.

[Video/Locked]

[happyduckbutt]

Hey, don't mention it. That's what friends are for, right?

And...I wasn't sure what else I could do...

[Video/Locked]

[notyourblueangel]

Mn. [He just...nods.]

Are you all right? You weren't affected by those things, were you?

[Video/Locked]

[happyduckbutt]

Luckily I wasn't. That didn't make me any less worried about everyone that was, though.
