[Video/action | The Junkpile]

[deadlydoctor]

[The video starts with Knock Out in the middle of the junkpile, his blue firelizard perched on his shoulder, flapping its wings with anxiety and looking at the sky.]

I knew that peace wouldn’t last. Anybody else has seen the shiny display? The Lambda is up to something again and…eh...?

[There’s a loud thud and Knock Out turns to face two mutated boars growling and charging at him. They’re not the fasted creature but they’re really nasty looking and seriously? Zombie boars now? Knock Out is so done with this place he swears to primus…

With an irritated sigh he raises his left hand. It changes into a path blaster, not a weapon medics come equipped with very often (or ever), and the boars are blasted away withing seconds. ]

Thank you ‘Cade for the upgrade. [Knock Out murmurs to himself and then focus his attention on the feed again.]  I really hate this place sometimes. Who wants roasted pork for dinner?

So I noticed. Just when you thought they couldn't get any grosser, right?

[Sweeps around for another pass, tearing another swathe through the boars.]

Hey, this is the first time since I've been here that I've had something to shoot at. I'm gonna enjoy it while it lasts.

[deadlydoctor]

You would be surprised as how disgusting things can always get. Did I ever told you about zombies? One day I should.

[Knock Out would be eating energon popcorn if he had this. This also reminds him of the time he watches breakdown go around demolishing anything that got in his way. Good times, those.]

Feel free, I can tell you are having fun.

[the_other_green_seeker]

I'll do you one better: how about a huge, part-organic energy leech? I didn't see it personally, but Galvatron, Cyclonus, and Scourge apparently ran into one in Cybertron's lower levels.

[They're gonna need one hell of a BBQ pit to cook all this pork later. That is, if anybody's want to eat it.]

Feel free to join in the blasting any time you like. I'll keep any from getting close enough to mess up your finish.

[deadlydoctor]

I see your huge, part-organic energy leech and raised it a half human half corpse of my murdered best friend. [does he win?

It doesn't look all that tasty, let's be honest.]

Ohhh gladly! [Pew pew time!]

[the_other_green_seeker]

...OK, you win; that's grosser. Your Megatron into freaky experiments or something?

[Meanwhile, more shooting! Woo-hoo!]

[deadlydoctor]

[He's not sure he's glad about winning the but...Knock Out shakes his head.] He is but that was not his doing. It was a group of humans called MECH who wanted to play a game they don't quite understand. We let them know their mistake. [Knock Out switches his right arms into this sawblade.


That sounds is quite comforting, in an odd way.]

[the_other_green_seeker]

Hmph... good. Creepy fraggers deserved it if they were up to things like that.

[Because combining human and Cybertronian like that is just creepy, OK?

And yes, an oddly comforting sound, provided you weren't waking up to it...]

[deadlydoctor]

I took good care of it, trust me. [For months too. You don't want to end on Knock Out's bad list.]

Have you ever been on earth?

[the_other_green_seeker]

Where do you think I got the alt mode from? Was stationed there for about a dozen stellar-cycles in my world.

Generally a pretty dull place, but it's got plenty of energy resources and some great thermals, if you know where to look.

[Not that Knockout would probly care about thermals, being a grounder and all, but...]

[deadlydoctor]

Ah, good point. Were you alone investigation or you had company?

[He doesn't care about those but he knows enough about fliers to understand why he might like them.] That is does. I learned that Earth could be pretty entertaining if, as you said, you know what to look for.

Did you ever check the internet? There's plenty of curious stuff in there.
