[VIDEO] [TRANSMISSION ORIGINATING FROM: JUNKPILE]

[winged_knight]

[The feed opens to a reveal Wing, composed though a tad concerned.]

Greetings. I am Wing. I am searching for a certain medic who's name I regrettably did not get. Autobot, airframe, white red and cyan. Discernible by an unfortunately notable lack of hands.

[He'd leave that part out, because gosh, who needs to be treated to gory descriptions upon a first or even second communication with a stranger, but it really is the greatest identifying feature of the mech he's looking for.]

I met him in the Junk Pile and left him to seek aid, but when I returned he was gone.

Doctor, I hope you're out there and managed to make it to safety by other means. If so could you let me know? Or if anyone else has seen him and can share his whereabouts or condition I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.

((Mostly tying up loose ends here, but run where ever you want with this. ;) ))

Historian. Knight. Explorer. Scout. Swordmech. To name a few.

And friendly. Can't forget friendly.

Boring. Boring. Did that. Boring. Annoying.

And extra annoying.

[This was Starscream's commentary in the exact same order. Because he was an explorer at one time. ... And he did not like swords, but we can blame that one on Grimlock.]

[video]

[winged_knight]

Oh so you were an explorer then? What made you change your path?

And yes, because having people to support you and come to your aid when in a fight, low on resources or vying for power in a strange place where you have no allies is so annoyingly inconvenient.

[Grimlock would make anyone dislike swords. But conversely Wing is much prettier with his. And better trained, I guess that's noteworthy.]

[aerospacecommander]

Oh you know, I found that mindlessly killing was far more rewarding than traveling around the empty voids of space.

[Wing will soon learn that Starscream BSes most of what he says. It's just not always easy to tell which he's being truthful about.]

And who needs friends when I can have lackies and personal slaves? I have a giant living shield walking around here somewhere. Unless he found a shiny rock somewhere. Sparkly things seem to catch his attention. Anyway.

[This is very true. Grimlock was far more stabby with his sword and would rather impale Starscream with it than have any sort of discussion.]

[He chuckles but internally he's shaking his head.] You are an odd one if you find anything mindless to be more interesting than space travel. Usually it's the things in between the empty voids of space that are interesting. Unless you had trouble finding them that is.

[The former is becoming swiftly apparent, the later will take some study.]

I was actually talking about allies and compatriots you could trust to both watch your back and also pull their weight in battle same as you do but-- Friends are even better than that.

Because they'll do all that and die for you too.

[He tilts his head as he regards you.] How does your giant living shield feel about his position in your arrangement?

Most planets are full of dull lifeforms. Believe me, you should see Earth. Talk about a backwards species.

[Oh, Wing, Wing, Wing. That next part might have actually struck a nerve. It was close anyway, and had Jetfire actually died during the fight with Sunstorm .. it definitely would have. But either way he simply just huffs before smirking again.]

Lackies will also do that if they are scared of you enough.

And his opinion doesn't count.

[video]

[winged_knight]

Well I suppose that depends on what you find to be dull. [You must be often bored, aren't you?]

[Hmm, maybe there's something to that particular topic. Wing takes note for later.]

Assuming they have nowhere else to run, sure, lackies will die for you. [Sadly.]

[An arch look.] It doesn't? What if that opinion is to not to be that shield anymore? I suppose you don't need nor want him then?

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

Lets just say that I have a certain level of faith that he will continue to play that role for a very long time.

[And if he ever left, Starscream would certainly snap and bad things would happen.]
