[Gears and joints crack over the line--someone's working the kinks out]

Better. 

About time this place ceased altering my structure.  Tired of looking like Ratchet too...  So now what?  Do we continue sitting by...?  Or do we try and get answers out of these... people?

Could use a drink too.

I wasn't aware you had such a problem with my frame. [Chuckle]

[heavyweaponsbot]

[... brace yourself.]

...

[heavyweaponsbot]

ABOUT TIME YOU GOT HERE!

["GLEE" is not a strong enough word.]

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

[... Ow, my audios.]

My apologies, Ironhide. I wasn't aware that I was on a schedule.

Perhaps you could enlighten me as to where 'here' is.

[heavyweaponsbot]

[... the bellowing shows he cares.]

Funny.

Not here. Where are you? Give me your location.

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

[He would prefer something... You know, the bellowing is fine. :|]

I am currently aboard the deck of an unknown human sea vessel, strange though it may sound.

[heavyweaponsbot]

[Oh don't worry, he'll find you :|]

... Gathered that, Ratchet. Where on the vessel?

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

[He's counting on it. This is not something he's used to, appearing on boats.]

... Is there a way of telling...?

It... appears to be decorated in the fashion of one of those medieval stone structures, with primitive metal weapons. Hmm...

[BRB, INVESTIGATING SAID WEAPONS ON DECK 07]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Oh would you--

RATCHET! Quit getting--listen to me! Quit looking at that!

[BRB CHASING YOU DOWN. SOMEHOW.]

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

[But... the science!]

... Hm?

Oh, yes. As I said, I am currently on a deck that seemed to be fashioned after one of those primitive stone structures. A 'castle', I believe.

[heavyweaponsbot]

You did not say that.

How long have you been here? Staring at the ground again?

[NO, YOU'RE GETTING TACKLED AS SOON AS YOU'RE FOUND.]

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

A cycle or two.

You know, it is really very fascinating how they managed to import this sort of interior decor onto a ship...

[OHSHI- I am going to pretend that is upsetting. :|]

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Yeah, so fascinating, people are dying over it. And so fascinating they remove our weapon systems.

[DRIVIN'. DRIVIN'. Like a black golf cart of death.]

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

[Perhaps I should have met you on the mini golf deck...]

Dying?

...

They have removed your weapons? [Oh no they di'nt. Don't mess with those weapons, fraggit, or this medic is gon' have to smack someone. >:|]

[heavyweaponsbot]

[Too late. Behind you.]

Yeah.

...

See for yourself! [Shove/tackle 8|]

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

Ratchet~!

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

Ah, hello Mikaela.

Are you well?

[Sorry, still studying these wall decorations. He thinks they may be fake. :|]

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

Haha yeah, I'm good. What are you doing here?

[...Of course]

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

That is a good question - One I am afraid I do not have the answer to, at the moment.

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

Huh. Well, what are you doing? You sound distracted.

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

They have replicas of historic human weapons somehow fastened to the walls - I had wondered if they were original artifacts, but they do not seem to be...

[DISAPPOINTED D:]

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

...[Laaaughes]

Yeah...no ones allowed to have weapons. If you check yours, they're probably disabled. Maybe.

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

They seem to have confused surgical equipment with weaponry.

I don't imagine they will be quick to remedy the issue.

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

They...oh. That's not good.

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

No, I would not say it is...
