So I'm guessin' everybody got themselves back to normal? Nobody runnin' around gluing people to walls no more?

[Because he's fresh out of wall scrapers. Or something.]

Good news is, I got my altmode back.

[He pauses.]

Uh. Bad news is... kinda found out I wasn't affected no more... the hard way.

[Good job, Ironhide, what did you do.]

Comments

[thankyou4myheart]

...Ironhide, right?

[Hoping he's remembering the voice - he hasn't really talked to the guy since...well, very shortly after he arrived, just when that massive storm was hitting.]

Are you all right, sir?

[audio]

[arnhaid]

Yeeeep. That's me.

[He drawls out the first word, a little sheepishly. Is he really so infamous? Oops.]

Uh. Yeah. I got all my parts, if that's what you're talkin' about...

[audio]

[thankyou4myheart]

This is Deckard. I'm not sure if you remember. We met briefly via Link some months ago.

["You had storm debris buried in your shoulder." Yeah, he'll leave that part out.]

I'm glar to hear you've recovered. Do you mind my asking what happened.

[audio]

[arnhaid]

Oh, yeah. One of the bots like Power Joe. Gotcha.

[Awkward silence.]

I guess y'can. But uh. What're you askin' about? The energon scrap or?

[audio]

[thankyou4myheart]

Yes, Power Joe is one of my teammates.  McCrane, Gunmax, Kagerou, and Shadowmaru as well, if you know any of them.

  If you wish.  I'm more concerned about the "hard way" you mentioned, having regained your…alt-mode.

  [That's a term he's still getting used to, never mind that he has the same capability.]

[deadlydoctor]

Please, tell me you didn't use the same grenade method as Wheeljack.

[arnhaid]

Nope.

I didn't.

Happy now?

[deadlydoctor]

Not much.

What did you do then? And can you come to the medbay or I have to go there and fix you?

[arnhaid]

Unless you got yourself a flight mode you never mentioned, I don't think you're gonna get down here.

[deadlydoctor]

No, I think I'll stick to my beautiful car mode.

Down where, exactly? I can always send the acolytes, I'm sure some of them fly. [If not, they will figure a way to get Ironhide out of the mess he's in. Probably.]

[raceme]

Good to know you aren't affected anymore. Are you hurt?

[arnhaid]

Uh.




Not too bad.

[raceme]

But you are. How? What did you do?

[arnhaid]

... Uhm.

Y'know the big cliffs? Out in uh -- Vector's area?

[raceme]

Yes I do. I live next to them, I'm in charge of Vector's temple now.

Did you try to jump in there?

audio

[badboybikerbot]

Yeah thanks for sticking Power Joe to my wall, by the way. That wasn't the most annoying day of my life or anything.

[no it actually was very annoying.]

So, you were affected too, huh? Sounds like a story.

[tell us the story botpop]

audio

[arnhaid]

I got you down. You both needed a time out.

[He grunts.]

It... really ain't all that interestin'.

audio

[badboybikerbot]

Do we look like kids or somethin'? Tch.

[he's not actually that annoyed by it. he just likes to bitch.]

Nah? Then what's all this 'hard way' stuff? What'd you do?

audio

[arnhaid]

Do I gotta go through this again? You are kids, far as I'm concerned.

Uh.

Got stuck.

audio

[badboybikerbot]

Yeah, yeah, whatever.

[YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR THE EYEROLL]

Stuck? Good job. Where are you?

[heartdive]

What did you do...

[arnhaid]

Got stuck.

[heartdive]

"Got stuck." Yeah, that really tells me a lot.

[arnhaid]

Well, you asked what it was I did. That's it.

[heartdive]

Okay... How did you get stuck.
