[If one listens closely, they may hear a soft smack-smack of fish tails against fishy bodies, as Ironhide turns on his comm.]

I do not see how this qualifies as a punishment.  Not so bad... Once you get used to it...

This is not going to deter me from taking action against anything, Captain.  Especially not from protecting my charges from mad women and other organics... who have more disgusting tastes than mere murder.


[Of course, Ironhide is not mentioning the fact that he hasn't rested lately, thanks to the fish he's covered in bursting into song on every hour.]

Ironhide.

Are you hoping that the Captain will see fit to increase your punishment? Or are you actually so thick-headed you cannot see the foolishness in antagonizing him?

You can protect your charges without running off your vocal processor.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... I am hoping he sees the foolishness in punishing someone who was protecting others.

Hmpf. Maybe.

Do you honestly think this will help matters?

[heavyweaponsbot]

Are we going to know unless we attempt it?

[medicalofficer.livejournal.com]

And what do you plan to do when it is you strapped to a table?

[withanokka.livejournal.com]

Wait, you're being punished?

[Ironhide, nyoooooo ;A;

But seriously, Sokka needs to LISTEN TO THE COMMS more. He's been neglecting his stalking. How does Leo keep up with it all?]

[heavyweaponsbot]

[He grunts an affirmative.]

Yeah. Scored a hit on that woman--the one who uses fire. Apparently that is a grave offense.

AZULA?!

Oooooh, man. That's AWESOME. Thank you SO MUCH. What did you do?

[Sokka sounds like a Sokka In A Sword Shop, you have MADE HIS DAY, Ironhide!]

[Ironhide huffs out a sigh, trying to ignore the smacksmack of the fish.]

Just... clipped one of her legs. Did no lasting damage.

But STILL. Oh, man.

[And he's still grinning from ear-to-ear, until he realizes--]

Wait. She's gonna try and get you back, you know.

Punished?

Dude, what'd you do?

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

I defended my charges. Mikaela, and a boy from my team.

Captain decided to take offense.

[Audio]

[thepartydude.livejournal.com]

Are they okay? Is Mikaela okay?

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah. Everyone is fine... except the ones I warned.

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

...You're being punished? Why?

[heavyweaponsbot]

You remember the... male who threw an explosive at you?

Gave him a warning.

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

...

You did, huh?

[She sounds appreciative. She was...a little mad about her room, not even gonna lie. It's getting funnier, but every now and then she finds a sticky piece of marshmallow and wants to murder Jinx where he stands.]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Yeah. Broke his finger. Threw him across the room.

[chopshopgoddess.livejournal.com]

Cause he bombed my room?

[Awww, she loves her dad bot <3]

Thanks.

[heavyweaponsbot]

... For what?

[text]

[soldierbee.livejournal.com]

For picking up my slack. I was going to do something, but I wasn't sure, and you're just a lot better at intimidation than I am anyway.

audio

[heavyweaponsbot]

You were... tied up. I was not. You would have done the same, had I not been able to.

[So don't thank him. It was nothing. Plus, it'll just get mom Ratchet on your case.]

[soldierbee.livejournal.com]

[He highly doubts he would've done the same, but whatever.]

Thanks anyway.
