re_alignment | Track 3 [Video][Check OOC note at bottom]

[The video turns on to show Miko as she tries to smother a yawn. She didn't look particularly well rested either. She gives a little embarrassed look followed by a smile.]

Hey guys, I found something super cool in the junk pile, and it took me all day to dig it out, but I've got it now.

[Her voice even sounds a bit tired, though the focus shifts off of her as she turns the com to show a drum set that had been roughed up a little, but was all there.]

I was wondering if any one know how to [Her question was broken with the sound of a yawn.] play?

[The video shifts strangely the sound of a heavy thump and the clatter of the com on the ground coming over the line. When the video settles out Miko looks like she, quite literally, fell asleep where she was, just to the side of the junk pile, curled up on the ground as if it were a bed.]

((OOC Note: Miko has been approved for a canon update and so won't be waking up to people's voices or even if they come to her to check on her. An acolyte of Nexus Prime will be taking her back to where she woke up in the temple. People are free to react to the post over the link or in person. Miko will be waking up in a few days.))

[Did...Miko say what she uses?]

I...I guess bed. Either way, it's same thing, different name.

Okay so uhm..let's go. DO YOU KNOW where Ratchet is? [Blurr is back to feeling awkward, oops.]

...Can't say I've seen him.

Think he'd know what to do?

Oh...I wanted to apologize about you know everything. I...I wanted to apologize to you too.

I hope so.

...

[We're getting into awkward territory here, aren't we. Wheeljack's no good with this...feeling stuff, so he'll answer appropriately.]

Don't worry about it, Blurrk. It...it happens, yeah?

I...[Is not like Blurr wants to go into that territory, but some things need to be said so they stop being awkward later. Wheeljack doesn't look angry but Blurr can tell that he's not comfortable.]...yeah it didn't mean anything.

[That's a good way of putting it. He has a terrible habit of avoiding emotional things. Still, he puts an arm around Blurr's shoulder.]

Don't beat yourself up over it. It wasn't you, right?

It was the pages.

[He's surprised but clearly appreciated the contact after a few seconds. Looks like nothing changed with Wheeljack. Probably a good thing.]

No but I feel responsible...thank you Whellejack...sir [He added that last part with a little smile. Mocking Wheeljack slightly.]

[Wheeljack seemed to be acting like a mature, responsible adult...up until that last part. The last little 'sir'. You don't know what you're messing with now.

The Wrecker puts him in a playful headlock.]

What was that, Blurrk?

[AJKAHKSASASAS!!!! Miko is lucky that Wheeljack can hold her in one hand, Blurr couldn't have done that and keep messing with people. Was was he so small.

He laughed, though.] Sorrysorrysorry...should've said miss?

[Still mocking you, Mr Wrecker, because it's nice.]

[Oh you, you're sinking your own ship. That arm moves down to his waist, lifting him up.]

That's it, you're grounded.

[UNMANLY SHRIEK.

Primus, you are strong.] THAT'scHEATING!

Sorry, there were rules?

[Wreckers say FUQ U to rules.]

C'mon, princess.

[He starts making his way to the Solian temple.]

There are _alwaysrules

[8'/ He's allowing you to carry him around, really. He could get free if he wanted. He just...doesn't want now.]

You are really really strong..it's not fair.

[He hears that last part as he walks.]

Wasn't always like that, yannow.

With the frame you got I find hard to believe you weren't always strong Wheeljack. [Indirect compliment, get.]

Truth be told, Blurrk, I'm one of the smallest Wreckers.

Oh wow they must be really big then.

Pretty decent sized. Didn't think a guy like me would make it in the Wreckers.

Sure showed them.

There are other qualities that are very useful in battle. [He knows that well.] I saw you fight I know you are something impressive to see when you use those swords.

[There's a soft smirk as he keeps walking.]

Ya sound just like Bulkhead back on Cybertron. Got my aft pretty much handed to me by a bigger mech, Bulk pulled me out of it. Told me that I should focus on usin' my size to my advantage.

I did.

[He looks up at the mech he's carrying.]

You did too.

He must be a really smart guy. [Blurr smirks, leaning against Wheeljack's shoulder.]

Wegottaworkwithwhatwegot.

Thank you.

Wouldn't go that far, but he's got a good head on his shoulders.

[His tone is different, almost...fond.]

Anytime, buddy.

[That's just AS good if not more. [Blurr notices, it makes him smile more softly now.]

Hmmm. [You get a happy, pleased sound in response Jackie. Blurr's feeling sleepy like Miko now.]

Hehe, maybe you better power down for awhile, Blurrk. I'll getcha home.
