[Audio/Action][Location Encrypted]

[staresat]

[After being given the introductory explanation, Shockwave had found himself a stable corner within the temple to stand in. The damage to his only optical sensor reduced his vision was to mostly darkness. There were a few vague, shimmering shapes to guide him, but the act of acclimating to these new surroundings were still a rather ungraceful affair altogether. Had the comm not been a mostly internal upgrade, making any sort of call would have been a lot more complicated.]

[The audio feed clicks on to the sound of sparks occasionally spurting from the damaged part. But soon enough, a new voice disinterestedly drones through:]

This Cybertron does not yet carry the burden of civil war.

[The thought is given one or two seconds of attentive silence before he moves to the more prudent topic:]

Is there a medic?

(ooc: anyone in Liege Maximo's temple can feel free to find him and use this ample opportunity to poke fun at his misfortune.)

(edit: WHOOPS I accidentally put video first.)

[The helm darts up to the general direction of the voice, though he doesn't seem to be able to make eye contact. The gaze is wandering as he tries to get a fix on the source through hearing alone.]

[The fact that she had managed to get so close without having any audible footsteps to determine where she was had incited a cautious shift in posture. Better not get too close,]

Identify yourself.

[As his head moves, she skitters to the side a bit, making sure she stays out of sight just in case. Otherwise, she's keeping her distance from tall dark and creepy.]

I asked first.

[staresat]

[Nope. He's not cooperating until you give him what he wants.]

[The cannon arm lifts slightly as he turns to meet the voice again, only being able to vaguely center on where the voice was coming from. It'd probably be impossible to get anything approaching a direct hit, but if he could drive her off with a few shots, it'd be sufficient.]

Re: [Action]

[treacherous_widow]

[Then they might have a problem.

She eyes that cannon arm warily and makes sure to stay out of its sight. e might be able to drive her off with that thing or he could just make her a little more determine to get the name of the idiot trying to scrap a harmless little widow.]

Silent type huh. Well isn't that just Prime. Why don't you put that thing away and talk like a civilized bot. It might get you what you're after.

[Excuse me madam]

[Maybe when you're in a pickle like this you'll see(or maybe not) why he's not too keen on letting people just walk up to him.]

[But he's not trigger happy, fortunately, and stays poised. It looks like he's considering the option. Or maybe just waiting for you to go away. Take your pick.]

[Like she could do any damage to him. Right now she doubted that her cyber venom would be enough to do anything to this guy.]

How about this. You tell me your name. I tell you my name and then once you put that pretty little cannon down, we can talk. You look like you need some help and we both have the same annoying glyph.

So just maybe, I can get that lamp of yours fixed. If you don't try and scrap a harmless little spider.

[There... may have been a slight relaxing of posture there. He's not entirely convinced he should let you near, but appears to be intrigued enough to entertain a little dialogue.]

[She gets a short response, as unwelcoming as it was.]

Shockwave.

Re: [Action]

[treacherous_widow]

[Being intrigued is fine. She can work with that.]

Blackarachnia. Now about that cannon, try not to shoot the widow.

[Action]

[staresat]

[There's a few tense seconds after she gives her name before the large weapon is steadily lowered.]

[Fine. You can get close if you want. Just keep talking so he knows where you are.]

Re: [Action]

[treacherous_widow]

[Good Lamp head.]

Now, I'm going to get a closer look. Don't be surprised to feel multiple legs cannon boy.

[She lowers herself closer by her web to get a closer look and even pokes the damage a bit with a few of her eight legs. Looks like he got into one hell of an accident. Or fight.]

So, how did you get this?

[Action]

[staresat]

[He doesn't react much to her prodding, not even seeming to wince or twitch in pain as the legs brushed over the damaged part. Probably a mix of it being a light touch and him having any urges well in check at this point. Even ones as natural as pain.]

Autobot infiltrator.

[One with particularly good aim, apparently. That shot hit in just the right spot.]

Re: [Action]

[treacherous_widow]

He must had good aim.

[A few more prods and she backs up a bit.She's seen the extent of the damage and can see what needs to be fixed. Simple enough. Lets just hope she has the right parts floating around somewhere.]
