[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?

I'm not sure how Ratchet could be bad... though I suppose differences in personality would give that, but I'm not sure why you think I would be any more comfortable than Starscream in front of a camera...

[He smiles nonetheless, though it's somewhat dry.]

[deadlydoctor]

He has no notion of fun or understand the concept of 'entertainment'. You need to keep people interested if you want to actually teach them something. But Jetfire you have th wits ad the looks for it. And you are very photogenic.

Would it hurt to try?

[angleofscience]

[He's just going to clear his vocaliser and shake his helm. Knock Out, really, stop that.]

That must be... ah, another difference between alternates then. Because the Ratchet I know is hardly unaware of how to have 'fun'. And I'm pretty sure he would do a far better job of being both informative and interesting.

[deadlydoctor]

[No. He likes it when you are all embarrassed and or confused.]

Is he? That's new. He's not here by any chance, isn't he?

[angleofscience]

[Wow, rude. This needs to stop, Knock Out.]

He's not, unfortunately. [Then he shakes his helm, smiling dryly.] Or, if all is all right at home, not... ah, unfortunately, since that's where he belongs.

[deadlydoctor]

[If he's being a bad boy why don't you come and punish him~]

Too bad. We had been short on medics lately, I am very busy.

[angleofscience]

[... How about not. By the Matrix, Knock Out...]

We have. [At that, he sighs, frowning.] If something happens... with this or later, things might get difficult, but hopefully no one will be injured.

[deadlydoctor]

[Why so difficult Jetfire? Learn how to have fun.]

Heh...yeah. Hopefully. [Can you feel the cynicism?]

[angleofscience]

[This type of fun isn't his sort of fun!]

Not a hope with particularly great odds, but still. I should see what there's to do about this, too.

[Before Knock Out turns things back to being embarrassing.]

[deadlydoctor]

[It could be if he gave it a try.]

I guess that we will have to wait and watch thing unfold. You take care.

[Ey he can be nice too.]

[angleofscience]

[He seriously doubts that.]

Indeed. You as well, Knock Out.
