[Contrary to his previous postings, this time, Perceptor sounds rather harried.]

Yes, it would seem I've been tasked with a rather unpleasant notification...

Regardless, Commander Ultra Magnus wished me to inform the lot of you that he has, somehow, managed to subdue the Decepticon known as "Overlord", and, exceptionally pretentious title aside, wished the denizens of the Haven to be notified.

[There are some tapping noises, as he's apparently working on something while he makes this announcement.]

He is currently in the process of returning the casualties and wounded to the local medical bay. Any medical staff currently in residence are asked to prepare both themselves and their equipment as speedily as possible.

... which, I suppose includes myself. So if someone would be so kind as to ah, point me in the general direction...

[It might...but it might be a bit brusque too. A file attachment to the message would work though. At least that's what Wing would suggest...were he thinking more coherently.]

[As it is there's a strangled sound in reaction to the names. Horror stricken, he seems to draw in on himself, the pinions and audials slicking flat. A hand covers his mouth to hold back further noise as his optics shutter hard, but there's the sound of shuddering flight panels.]

[It takes a moment for him to regain the ability to speak.]

"_{Wh-where are they?}"

[sciencetank]

[... yes, that might be a far better solution, given how many of these reactions he seems to be fielding. Why on Cybertron did Magnus think handing this over to him was a good idea.]

[He... clears his throat. Or at least the Autobot version thereof.]

Commander Magnus is returning both the wounded and the... ah. The frames... to the medical bay.

[He pauses, then adds, in case this 'bot is going to do what all signs seem to point to him doing:]

He was rather unspecific as to the state of the casualties. I would prepare yourself for a fairly macabre sight, should you choose to arrive.

[That's a very good question. It's certainly not your fault Tankceptor.]

....thank you.

[His venting seems ragged. The hand over his mouth is more to prevent loss of composure than anything else, but once he sees the bodies that might be a different story.]

[Still...this all seems too unreal to be believable.]

And again...for the warning. [He shudders and his frown deepens with worry.] What about the survivors...?

[Video]

[sciencetank]

The survivors?

In pieces. Though not nearly so much as the corpses, I should say. Perhaps that's rather why they're still functional.

[Sorry, Wing. This is a report he's had to make multiple times before. The shock sort of wears off after a while.]

[If traumatizing mechs were a function, Perceptor you are excelling at it But perhaps quick and simple is best right now...]

[He cringes at the description, a pang of sympathy tightening his park.]

....but alive, at least. Who is among them?

[Video]

[sciencetank]

[He... actually looks at the video feed for a second, frowning.]

Perhaps... it would be best if I simply forwarded you Commander Magnus' report to pursue at your own leisure.

[i.e. when you don't look like you're about to explode.]

[Video]

[winged_knight]

Ah.... [He needs to gather his wits about him for a moment.]

Yes, maybe that would be best. If...you'd be so kind.

[A flash of a polite smile, which is not one that he's really feeling.]

[Video]

[sciencetank]

There isn't anything kind about it. It's practicality, rather.

[But he'll send over Ultra Magnus' report, regardless.]

[Video]

[winged_knight]

[It's a kindness none the less, or that's what he'd say if he wasn't so stunned.]

Thank you. Very much. I...shan't keep you from your other duties.
