[ After being informed by Drift that biological warfare is still a Thing in at least one of the dimensions represented here, Ratchet's decided to play things safe in terms of infection control. This is why you're being treated to a voice-post, featuring the gruff voice of our favourite Autobot medic right now. ]

Right. Well. I don't care what kind of grudges you've got, but whether you're Autobot, Decepticon or something else, things like illness and contagious disease are an issue here, especially given our ... questionable resources. So, since there seems to be a sizable population of Cybertronians around, I'd request that any and all of you come find me if you're in need of medical attention. I can't promise to fix anything that ails you, but I can at least scan you and tell you what I'd need to fix things.

And I can promise that the longer you wait on finding me for medical attention, the more annoyed I will be that you waited. Keep that in mind if you're on the fence about things.

[ Yep. That was quite obviously a threat. Ratchet's a doctor, not a nursemaid. ]

[It's a relief to hear there are able-bodied medics around here, and proactive ones at that.]

Greetings. Though I'm not in need of medical attention, since I have been in the proximity of two plague victims I think it'd be wise to have you verify there's no danger?

[He'd like very much to ask what you know about Drift, but decides that'd be unbecoming of him at this stage.]

[ It's an equal relief to Ratchet that the mechs around here are willing to cooperate with him! The things he's had to do to drag Bee in for check ups... ]

It very much would be, I think. I've examined one other mech by the name of Drift, and it appears that his disease is no longer contagious, but it wouldn't hurt to make sure that things didn't spread before I was able to check him.

[ After all, Drift had indicated that Vector Prime had halted his illness, but the lot of them had been wandering the junk for quite a while before the Firstforged arrived. ]

When and where should we meet? And, ah, I suppose if you could tell me your designation, that would also be helpful.

No longer contagious? That is excellent news! What else did you discover?

[You'll have to forgive him, he can be mildly excitable and forgetful on occasion. Those occasions having nothing to do with a certain other mech.]

Ah, of course. My apologizes. I am Wing. I'm currently scouting the Junk Pile, but am happy to come to you if you prefer.

[In a moment of hindsight...]

I realize it might be a good idea to a full check. I...sustained some damage in a battle immediately before arriving here. It seems to have been healed in the transition but nevertheless I'd like to be assured that all is well if you'd be so kind?

[ Ratchet can afford to be indulgent, so don't worry about his rage yet, Wing. ]

Not much yet. I haven't had time for a full examination of the disease yet, not to mention that I don't have as many tools as I might... still, I'm certain that I should be able to heal him and any others inflicted with the disease in due time. [ This isn't bragging as much as it is a simple statement of Ratchet's confidence in his ability. With human technology he can get lost and confused, but when it comes to Cybertronian internal systems, his expertise really is unchallenged (in his universe). ]

As for you... a check up would probably be wise, given our circumstances. At the very least, it would give me a blueprint to try to match repairs to if you get injured at some point. I'd rather see you here, than in the middle of the junk pile, so why don't you drop by when you're free? If you comm me before you get here, I'll meet you at the front.

[Is it appropriate to worry about the 'yet' part then?]

That's quite a relief to hear. I can't offer any medical skills aside from what's common field repair but if you need an extra pair of hands or perhaps eyes if you're searching for something I would be happy to help.

A fine plan. I'm free now if that suits you? Better sooner than later.

[And a blueprint is a grand idea, since his frame might hold some surprises.]

[ It's always appropriate to worry about the 'yet' part. ]

Thank you for the offer! And yes, you're welcome to come by right now. Korra may be coming, but this really shouldn't take too long. I'm sure she won't mind if we break for the couple minutes it will take to get a scan of you.

[[ ooc: if you want, you can PM me about any 'surprises' and we can log an appointment in the logs com? Alternately, we can just handwave c: ]]
