[Audio][Transmitting from Vector's Tower]

[winged_knight]

[Audio only, because wow, there are just some things he can't explain right now. Not that he could even if he wanted to--which is really something he should address at some point too-- but well, priorities. One thing at a time.]

This is--[there's the noise of a mech roughly clearing his vocalizer. The pitch changes a bit after that, it almost seems intentional.] Sorry. It's Wing. Ah. A question if you will. To those of you who went out to the Badlands with Ashitaka....

Have you, perchance, noticed any... after effects?

I--don't want to alarm anyone. Just...curious?

[Wing's voice--doesn't seem right. But still possibly familiar? And for a mech who always chooses video when conversing over the Link, all of this audio stuff might seem a bit peculiar.]


[Locked to Drift:] And Drift...ah, where ever you happen to be, I hope you're...okay?

[He'd be a bad medic if he didn't recognize his own patient's voice. Granted, it's the wrong patient but y'know.]

Drift, if you've gone and slagged yourself up again...

[FROWN.]

[Wing, you've never been on this end of Ratchet's wrath before. Might want to batten down the hatches. Might get a little ugly here.]

[winged_knight]

Ratchet-- [He drops the act of trying to effect a different vocal tone, you're just too good.]

I'm fine. I MEAN, I'm uninjured. Really. It's okay.

[docbot]

Uh-huh. You've pulled this one on me enough times that you should know that it's not going to work.

[Huff.]

Where are you? Don't make me hunt you down or you'll regret it, mech!

[winged_knight]

No really, I'm not hurt. Honestly. I'm just uh...moody. And, mildly inconvenienced?

[Come on Ratchet, he's trying really hard here.]

What?! I'm in my room! I mean Wing's room. I mean I'm Wing! [A frustrated hiss.] Why is this so complicated?!

[docbot]

Mildly inconvenienced.

[Oh. Ooooh. Wing's room... But he'll address that later, once Drift stops being an idiot.]

Possibly because you're attempting to lie to me, and I don't react well to being lied to.

LOLOL

[winged_knight]

Ah Yes...

[Wing wishes that were the case, really...]

I--No! Ratchet I'm not lying. Okay I'm not fine but, I don't think you can do anything about this... [Given he's not even sure how he got this way.]

BITCH PLZ

[docbot]

[The look that Ratchet is levelling your way could probably strip paint from its plating.]

Only way we'll know is if I take a look at you and find out, Drift. And apparently I'm going to have to come over there which, believe me, is a hassle, and is going to earn you even more of an earful when I find you.

[Vroom. He is heading your way. You might want to run (unless you want to explain your predicament to him).]

SUDDEN VIDEO cuz DAT FACE

[winged_knight]

[It's not really necessary to shrink away from a video screen but that's certainly what Wing's doing now. YIKES.]

A-HA-ha-haaa...Ratchet! Really it's not necessary!

[Wing's known some ornery medics in his time but none quite like this. He could run but with his driving skills? Yeah, that likely just Ratchet a real reason to be angry at him. He's touched by the medic's concern though, it's strangely comforting, even if the delivery was borderline terrifying. He'll just sit and await his fate.]
