So there I was, just about to give some Cons the thrashing of a life time, when all of a sudden I wind up here with no warning whatsoever. Kind of rude, don't you think?

I'd say someone owes me.

[Despite how terribly upsetting this is for him, he sounds pretty calm and mellow.]

Now the question is, what's a guy got to do to have some fun around here?

[Nope, he's not going to give an introduction right away. He's too busy wondering if he's going to be bored here. Priorities.]

What? The guy wants to know.

[He sees nothing wrong with this.]

See you've found him too.

[docbot]

That doesn't mean you just tell it to him like- like that!

[Next time he sees you, you're getting smacked, bro.]

And yes, I found him. It's not like I don't ever check this blasted Link system.

[He's been neglecting it, but he does check ... periodically. When he's not working >>;]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

...What other way is there?

[That's not even sarcastic, he really doesn't know.]

'Hate to tell ya, but you sorta failed at that living thing'.

Scrap, I shoulda used that one...

... perhaps giving him some high grade before the big reveal would have helped soften the blow?

[Honestly, he's never had to tell someone that they're dead back home before, but geez Wheeljack. See icon. His icon is the exact picture of what he's doing right now. He's going to wear two dents in his face from doing that so often, and one's going to be named 'Wheeljack'. The other will be 'Miko'.]

He's a big bot, he can take it.

[Don't give him that look, he knows that look.]

...I'm in trouble, aren't I.

[private channel]

[docbot]

With no help from you, though.

[Snort.]

What clued you in?

[private channel]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

That...thing you always do.

[private channel]

[docbot]

Thing?

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[And Wheeljack imitates Ratchet's signature facepalm as best he can.]

[private channel]

[docbot]

Ah yes.

That.

[private channel]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Pretty good, huh? I've been practicin.

[private channel]

[docbot]

So I see. I'm sure you and the others have a grand time making fun of me while I'm not around.

[He sounds a little hurt under the bluster. He knows that it's common for people to make fun of him behind his back, but he hadn't really expected that from you here, Wheeljack.]

[private channel]

[wheeljackofalltrades]

[Wheeljack can kind of sense that, too. Which puts him in the awkward void.]

Aw Doc...

I didn't mean it...badly.

[private channel]

[docbot]

Of course not.

[ He shutters his optics and regains his equilibrium. ]

Well. I'll see you later.

[ And cuts the feed before he can manage to get "accidentally" hurt again. ]
