[Despite having found haven in the Solian temple, Wheeljack wasn't one to stick around in one place. It made him positively antsy, and to be honest, there wasn't much to do there. The longer he stayed, the longer Ratchet would mother-hen him into thinking something was wrong with his processor, or that a dent on his chassis meant irreparable damage. As touching as that was, he decided to stretch his wheels. It's not like they could do anything or go anywhere, after all, so he headed towards the only place he knew of: the junk pile.

Not that he minded that. It was a good place to search for materials. Something to make a good grenade with. Because really, with two Starscreams and counting he had to make sure he had the perfect present for them if the time called for it. And he couldn't rely on the one latched to his hip permanently. It was bound to be used sooner or later.

Figuring he could use a bit of help in this area, he decided to switch on the communicator.]

So...anyone want to go on a treasure hunt?

[He could be seen digging through a pile, tossing out this and that.]

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

[Korra was pulling and concentrating so hard, Wheeljack removes the debris without her noticing; she doesn't adjust her force to gel with the debris' abrupt removal, and ends up up yanking out the light armor robe so hard she topples backward, feet slipping off the pile. Before she had dimly registered Wheeljack's words, but they're forgotten in the moment while she falls through the air and damn it she should airbend but nothing's happening--]

[Thankfully his other hand was still at the ready, and it slips right under her just as she begins her descent. That would have been a rocky landing.]

Easy there, tiger.

[He gave a slight chuckle. It wasn't without merit, though. With tugging that armor out, he noticed a large metal casing. Perfect for a grenade.]

[Slightly dazed, Korra looks up at Wheeljack.]

Thanks for the catch. [She grins.]

[Korra's about to ask about THAT Starscream, but then she notices what Wheeljack's looking at, where the red armor just was. She points at the metal thing.]

What's that?

[The Wrecker gives a little smirk and a wink.]

No problem.

[He gives the casing a little toss. It can't be much bigger than her.]

Not really sure. But I know what it's gonna become. An explosive.

Ooh, that's cool.

[Korra presses the red armor against her, looks down at it. Really matches closely to her her firebending uniform for her test. Then she frowns at it. What's something like this doing here?]

[Wheeljack tilts his head to get a good look at her, perking an eyebrow.]

Looks like a perfect fit to me.

Good thing I can just pull this over my clothes right now.

[But Korra takes her helmet off first. Then she puts the red armor on, and replaces her outfit. She does a few quick katas. She settles back, satisfied, crosses her arms.]

Yep, it's a good fit.

[Then her eyes dart back to the ground.]

Um, you can put me down now, Wheeljack. Thanks.

[Oh, right. His hand lowers enough for her to hop off.]

No problem, kiddo.

Glad to see ya found somethin' in this scrapheap.

[Korra nods.]

You, too.

[She glances around.]

What are else are you looking for?

[Drift laughs. Because that was funny.]

I think that was kind of the point. A lesson, that you shouldn't go around attacking everything.

...it's why I also have these. [Drift pulls out his two short swords. Because 'attacking everything' is what Drift does.]

Pledge to the Circle of Light. They were peaceful. They fled our war, saved what they could of our culture. They made me see...where I had gone wrong.

Thankyou! Ehh he doesn't really get praised often.] I have a few things in mind that I would like to see if I can find but what sort of stuff are you looking for as well?

I see. If I find anything remotely useful or even some grenades themselves, I will be sure to pass them along.

[By which he means:
/sabotage
/sabotage
/sabotage
/sabotage
/sabotage]

[Yeah, attacking everything seems to be more of Wheeljack's style too. And...he gets the feeling this will be a beautiful friendship.]

Good backup plan. Those are some pretty nice blades, if I can say so.

[He was about to say something, but the pledge catches him.]

Come again?

[He took another look around too, finding some stray wires. Those would be helpful...]

Anythin that can be used in a bomb. Specially with THAT Starscream here.

In short? Anythin' that can be used to make a grenade.

Pretty generous Who do I owe thanks to

[Korra blinks.]

'That' Starscream?

Yannow, the one from my world. I owe him a little grenade-shaped present anyway.

So...you guys are enemy factions?

That's one way to put it. Our last meeting...wasn't so great.

Stasis cuffs and prisons were in the equation.

[Korra grimaces, reminded of Tarrlok.]

That blows. Sorry about that. Were you...captured, long?

[The bot shakes his head as he bends his legs, giving them a good stretch.]

Nah, I don't like to stay in one place for too long. Not that I had time to waste. Starscream made a copy of me to try and sneak into my faction's base.

[Oh, a way to any mech's spark is to praise his weaponry, Wheeljack.]

They've seen me through a lot. [He gives a proud grin.]

What? The Circle? [A deep breath. Here's a long story.] We, the Autobots and Decepticons, we were destroying our planet, utterly. A group left, unwilling to choose sides, and determined to save something of our culture.

I found them. And these.

[Wheeljack listens to the story, picking out the vast similarities between his universe, and the one Drift was obviously from.]

So Cybertron's still kickin' where you're from...

Despite our best efforts. We'd thought it was dead--twice.

But the planet is stronger than any of us.

[He frowns at the implication behind the question.]

Yours isn't.

[Kung Fu Grip on the Obvious.]
