[video] I see a black glyph and I want to paint it blacker....

[How do you make black more 'vivid'? Frag you and your rules of color theory. This is Whirl.]

[And Whirl is showing off his SWEET TAT, his Megatronus glyph, to the camera. It is now so black it is faintly glowing. Yeah, you read that right. Glowing. Black. Deal with it. ]

Cool.

Guess this means I'm even more badaft than I thought.

[Is that even possible?!]

Wonder when Splat's gonna get his.

[ First Aid's frowning a bit. Not that Whirl can see it. ]

He's been through a lot.

[ Just repeating himself, like it will sink in. ]

Why? I'm his friend. I think. He wouldn't hurt me.

Yeah? Who hasn't?

[Snort.] And Rung was his therapist. He seemed pretty ready to grease him.

That's a point, but it doesn't trivialize another's suffering.

[ Oh Whirl. Why do you make good points? First Aid is... incredibly set on this though. He just shakes his head. ]

It's a risk I'm willing to take.

Guess it depends whose fraggin' suffering.

[Because no one seemed to care much about Whirl's. Including Whirl. ]

[He makes points because he's been through the mill himself. A few hundred times. And he's crazy, but not stupid.]

Your choice. You need back up, though, you know. [Shrug.]

That's not right.

[ To be fair, First Aid's view of Whirl is pretty much the glorious, dramatized depiction of him in Wrecker: Unclassified. ]

...Are you offering to escort me?

Is anything 'right'? You know, four million years of 'killing for peace'?

If you want. [SQUINT.] Just saying, you know, precautions.

There's a lot wrong with the world, but we don't have to just accept it. Even if some things are necessary...

[ He's pretty torn about this. ]

I can't-- I mean... I have to-- I have no altmode. Just so you know...

So, some bad things are necessary.

[Right. This all makes perfect sense. ]

So? I have no fraggin' face.

It doesn't mean you have to indulge in it.

[ Man, you make him regret ever mentioning it. ]

What that means is that I get around very slowly.

Doesn't mean I have to not. Way of the fraggin' world, First Aid.

[He's regretting offering.]

You know, if you just don't want me to, or something, say so.

I... guess so.

[ He's going to sit and process that for a while. It's not an unreasonable thought. ]

I didn't say that! I just wasn't sure if you'd mind the company for a long time. I've never really spent much time with a Wrecker before, off duty...

[Occasionally Whirl ventures into 'reasonable'. He likes to stretch his comfort zone, push his envelope, and other metaphors.]

I can walk, you know. Kinda had to when my tail rotor got shot off, remember?

[Bleh. He does not want to remember that himself.]

So, I dunno, consider it payback for that or something.

[ A+ Whirl. Seems you like to live on the wild side. ]

You don't owe me anything. I mean, it's my job, and I just... like to help.

[ YOUR INJURY CONCERNED HIM. ]

Thank you.

[Touche.]

[Like to help? Are you crazy?]

You just wanted to get close to my aft.

[Well, who doesn't, really?]

[ First Aid jerks in surprise. ]

I-- What? No! I didn't have any ulterior motives.

Sure you didn't. [Yeah, he knows you didn't. He's just a creep.]

Besides. Can't blame you. It's a pretty awesome aft. [Unbiassed opinion.]

Er.

[ What does he say to that? ]

Yes it's... quite nice. But you were in need of repairs and that's it.
