[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...]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[He /does/ remember. TC finds himself surprised...and a little bit pleased. He finally nods.]

Company would be welcome, yes.

Thanks.

You don't need to thank me, Thundercracker. I'd like to think that we're friends after all.

Mnn . . . yeah. Friends are good in a place like this.

[And for as long as he's been here now, they're still something that surprises him in having...that he has people now he can trust with his back.]

That they are.

So I will unlock the door, but chances are I'm going out.

All right. And me too, actually.

Need to go check on Ravage.

I need to check on him as well. Just... Other things are bothering me at the moment.

Yeah? Like what?

[He's just wondering if it's something he can maybe help with.]

Aftermath of this energon nonsense.

[ aka Cliffjumper. 8( ]

Hmn. I see.

Let me know if there's anything I can do.

Unless you can deal with matters of the ember, I'm not sure there is.

Ember?

[No, wait...he /does/ know what Starscream's talking about. He and white-Megatron talked about that once or twice.]

Mn. No, afraid not. [a shrug] I can listen, I guess. If you want to talk.

Spark.

[ same thing really... ]

It's... Complicated. Fair warning.

[another shrug]

As I said, I can listen. Doesn't mean I can help, but...

Perhaps after I spend some time with Kagerou.
