re_alignment | [Video] Backdated to within a few hours of the initial wave of monsters

[ Ratchet looks worn and a bit beaten about when he makes his call on the Link. He'd been caught by one of the Sharkticons before escaping back to the temple, and there's still smudges of energon glinting in the crevices of his helm and chevron that he missed when wiping his face off. Still, there's a spark in his eyes -- he may not be at the front of the fighting, but he's certainly not out of action. ]

Given this absolutely ridiculous influx of creatures, I'm going to remind you all that I'm a medic and that I know what I'm doing. If you get into a scrap, don't waste time being a hero and limping around with your innards hanging out -- come here and I'll fix you.

[ His eyes narrow. ]

But don't be an idiot either. If I find out that any of you have blown yourself up because you used too many grenades, I'm going to come after you and weld your hands to your skull.

[ The glare he's directing at the comm could kill a mech at twenty paces. ]

Wheeljack, this means you.

[[ ooc: going to be slow in responding, but I thought I'd post this up before I became even later than I already am. ]]

[ Ratchet cocks an eyebrow and just. stares for a moment. lets the force of his sheer incredulity sink in. ]

With an attitude like yours, there's no need to wonder.

[ He is so unimpressed, Starscream. So. Unimpressed. ]

I'm not the one being aggressive towards his possible patience. What kind of bedside manner is that?

[Just think, Starscream is generally even worse in person.]

The same kind everyone gets. I'm a medic, not a nursebot.

But are you a good medic?

I get the job done.

That's not very reassuring. I don't think anyone who is dying wants a mediocre medic, just saying.

I think if someone is dying, they'd settle for any medic at all.

So if you were dying, you'd settle for ol' one-eye Shocky? Because he claimed to be acting as a medic during part of the war.

I'd rather attempt to repair myself, but whatever floats your boat.

If I were dying, I'd probably self-repair, yes... but I'm a medic and I have that option. Not everyone does.

Your bedside manner is even worse than I originally thought. You don't even have a sense of humor.

You're not a patient at the moment, so this isn't my bedside manner.

And my sense of humour is a bit more refined than yours, I suppose.

In other words: you don't have one.

Got it. No need to deny it, Auto-doc-bot.

[ A heavy sigh ensues. ]

If thinking that makes you feel better, I'll refrain from bursting your delicate Decepticon world-view.

So prove me wrong. I bet you can't.

[ Ratchet sighs, then decides that this is a waste of his time and that he's got patients to deal with, so he just hangs up. ]

*klik*

[How dare he be hung up on. Ratchet is totally going on the list.]
