Video [Transmission Originating from: Solian Temple]

[The video flicks on, to a view of a purple-and-silver mech with a very distinctive (and very red) V-shaped visor. He's poking and prodding around the glyph on his arm delicately, like it might explode in his face if he so much as looks at it too hard. He looks back to the camera after a moment.]

I was in the middle of something. Those lights aren't going to re-activate themselves.

[He pauses and ducks his head after saying that.] Sorry. I guess it will just have to wait until I get back... whenever.

Uhm. Could someone maybe... maybe tell me more about this? [He taps the symbol on his arm. He's sure it has something to do with where he is because he doesn't get overcharged often enough to have had this tattooed on.]

And if someone could tell me where the other vehicons are I'd. Really appreciate it. Thank you.

((OOC: Anyone that's in Solus's temple is welcome to run across him and actionspam it up in here!))

['Questioning' is usually spelled like 'shooting' or 'stabbing', none of which he likes. And he's having zero luck either accidentally running across other 'cons or shaking Wheeljack.]

This is what's good for me! I'm allergic to being stabbed!

[Fear is a fantastic motivator when it comes to escape, fortunately. Unfortunately, he doesn't know where he's even going right now. WHERE IS THE EXIT, THIS BUILDING IS STUPID.]

[Usually. Wheeljack seems to like those alternatives just fine. So he'll just keep up the chase, raising his lip up in concentration as he keeps pace.]

I'M ALLERGIC TO YOUR SCRAP.

[HOW ARE YOU SO BAD AT FINDING THE EXIT YOU PASSED IT LIKE TWICE.]

Okay, look. I'll let ya live if ya stop runnin! Not even a scratch.

[If he gets the right answers.]

[THE EXIT ISN'T CLEARLY MARKED AND THIS BUILDING IS STUPID oh scrap wrong turn.

Fracas skids to a halt as he makes a left turn into a dead end hallway, pinwheeling one arm to keep his balance as he scrabbles to turn-

-and that's Wheeljack. Oh geeze.]

How do I know this isn't a trick?

[Mistrust is the name of the game!]

[Thankfully Vehicons are as tall as they are, or Wheeljack would pick him up like a rag-doll. He'll just grab him by the throat instead. ]

Cause I said so.

[You have to admit, that's convincing.]

Okay scrapheap, how many of you are here.

[Fracas would be so, so glad about his height if he knew. Finally, being almost as tall as Starscream is coming in handy. Except for the part where Wheeljack grabbed his throat that is.]

What do you mean?!

[How many of them? He's only met himself so far.]

Do you think we have some kind of hivemind or something?

[Wheeljack holds him there, leaning his face closer.]

Wouldn't surprise me. Ya look alike, got the same amount of brains, and don't know when to back down.

[A tilt of his head.]

Ya can't really be the ONLY one.

[He twitches in Wheeljack's grip, trying to jerk back.]

Then why was I retreating?

[He doesn't mean to taunt you, he really doesn't. But he had to say something.]

I haven't seen anyone else.

Retreating? Maybe to call your little buddies. Don't think I'm on Day 1 of fighting you guys.

[Those optics narrow, as if trying to see if Fracas is lying or not. At least he's not...jumping to conclusions?]

What buddies?

[Wheeljack you killed all of his buddies ages ago. He doesn't have any buddies left. :|]

They're not around here? Hiding? Waiting to ambush any of us?

[Only some of them. The rest of the points go to Team Prime.]

Not unless Lord Megatron was here and told us to ambush you in a dead end after you chased me around this... where ever we are.

[Do you know how crazy this sounds?]

...

[Point. Vehicons don't really plan that far ahead.]

Wouldn't put it past Screamy, though. What with how I escaped your little slumber party.

[He doesn't exactly know Starscream's gone just yet.]

Starscream committed treason when he abandoned the Decepticons. We have orders to detain him and take him to Lord Megatron for punishment.

[He thought everyone knew that. Well, all the vehicons did, anyway.]

[Someone was off chasing Dreadwing during that time.]

...Screamy went rogue?

I thought the Autobots would have know. He's been helping you, hasn't he?

[Apparently even 'Con mooks have a better grapevine for information. Who knew?]

[HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN GONE?!]

You're kidding.

I'm too bad at making jokes for that.

[His grip loosens slightly.]

Huh. Can't see why you'd lie about that either.

[Oh thank the All Spark for small favors.]

... Does that mean I can go?

[Because he'd like to go back to running away from you while screaming.]

...

[He seems to be contemplating it a bit, before letting go completely. There's slight hesitance before he jerks his head to the side, as if to say 'get outta here'.]

Thanks for the heads up, mook

[You have a nickname now. That means he likes you.]

[Fracas rubs at his throat a little, shuffling back and forth on his feet for a few moments before dashing off.

Nope, not even insulted by the nickname. He knows what he is.]
