[Video] Location: The Junk Pile

[bladesbot]

[The video flips on and Blades is panicking.]

Someone help me please! There's something inside me and it won't get out and every time I try to reach in to get it, it just growls at me!

[He pushes the camera down to the glass of his cockpit where the tips of something fuzzy can be seen over the dashboard.]

Please help! It tickles and it's eating Dani's cereal!

[And then it clicks off as Blades starts flailing.]

... Ah. Depending on what it is, you could perhaps simply open your cockpit and gently grip ot to get it out?

Or ask it, if it's sentient.

[Jetfire's not sure, exactly, how to deal with the upset helicopter, so his advice may be less than helpful.]

I don't want to hurt it! [Blades isn't sure he could grab it without injuring it somehow. Handling small creatures is just not his thing. And then there's the matter of it hurting him.]

It just keeps growling and clawing at me when I try to grab it.

Usually, as long as you move slowly and are careful, if you put your hand in there and start to move it, it should move away on its own, since I doubt it actually wants you to grab onto it, or want to be crushed.

[And he says it so matter of factly, though, of course, he doesn't condone crushing random creatures that have somehow gotten into one's cockpit either. But as long as Blades' was slow, it should be okay...]

But... It'll hurt me. [Blades didn't like the idea of more scratches all over.]

The creature is organic, isn't it? And you are cybertronian; I doubt it has claws or teeth enough to so much as mar the finish on your armour, truly.

[He tilts his helm, then shakes it; hard not to, but it's more from surprise at the ... nervousness displayed than any annoyance.]

[bladesbot]

[Get used to it. Blades is nervous about everything.]

I guess I can try... But I've dealt with organic furry creatures before and they can still scratch up your face pretty well! [See example Mr Pettypaws.]

[He'll probably learn that soon enough.]

Try to be patient and take it slowly, but be firm about it. You don't have to accept something where you don't want it and haven't agreed to it.
