[VIDEO] [TRANSMISSION ORIGINATING FROM: SOLIAN TEMPLE] - SECOND OFFENSE
[For once, Barricade's video is on. Look at that full-color spikey cop car, backing up from the camera slightly. He's in his quarters, which are looking more finished than they had. Still not entirely complete, of course, but the washrack is done! FINALLY.
But today, Barricade is all-business. Or all-scientist, rather.]
This is Barricade, of TransTech-designated timestream Tyran 707.04 Delta, with test 01 of Unauthorized Upgrade 03.
I woke up yesterday and performed my usual post-recharge scan and found new equipment in my legs. Someone must have gotten hold of my designs for an upgrade to my legs that I never implimented while rebuilding them.
They have proven nonresponsive to normal activation methods but. I believe I have it figured out now.
Attempt One.
[He exvents, the sound chuffing out from the underside of his grill and... he speaks.]
Seagulls at Kmart
Are they keen bargain shoppers
or lost in the flock
[A set of thrusters rotate out of his calves, activating. He hovers about three feet above the ground for a bit... until the thrusters open up completely and he shoots straight out of shot.]
OH FRAG ME!

wasflippin'hilarious
restoredorigins!
[There's a sound like thrusters shutting off... and a scream before he plummets back into shot, landing in a heap. Barricade groans.]
Conclusion: If I was meant to fly, I would have been originally formatted with wings.

no subject
[As she'd noticed the first time, driving into the rock formation sticking up instead of having the power to go above it, and went careening off the side. After that, however, she'd been more careful.]
Well... [She trails off, and while she doesn't laugh, she raises a hand to her face to hide her smile. Even though her optics flash briefly and that's harder to hide.] It was your head, or your behind.
I'd be impressed if you found enough cushions to cover the floor area we have in these rooms.
[Since they were obviously made for mechs around fifty feet tall, which gave a lot of extra room for anyone who wasn't.]
