53rd Transmission - Video (Event ! Bodyswap)

[The video opens on Ratchet.  Who looks exceedingly peeved.  Moreso than those familiar with him may have ever seen him.  In fact, he looks as if he'd very much like to rip his communicator in half.]

Whoever is in possession of my medic will inform me of his whereabouts.  Immediately!  Or I shall tear you apart!

Where has the captain put him!  Answer me!

[... well.  That's certainly not something Ratchet would ever say.]

[And a considerably confused looking Ironhide is replying to this, utterly fascinated by the fact he's talking to... himself.]

I believe I may have your answer.

Ratchet?

[He just... stares at the feed. Is that... really...?]

In processor, at least.

Ironhide, I honestly have no idea how you continue to function. When exactly did you plan to tell me about some of these injuries? There are damages to your frame that I wasn't even aware of.

What are you... What injuries? I told you about everything.

... How do you function? You have scanners everywhere!

Your hip is out of alignment again, the damage to your chest is barely tolerable - Need I list everything?

... They are required to keep accurate data files. Only the essential scans should be running.

It is? When did that happen...? [He sounds genuinely confused by this. He honestly hadn't noticed.] Just shut off the pain receptors. It works.

... All of these are essential? That is not possible!

Ironhide, I swear that once I have my welding equipment, I am going to attach you to the Medbay wall. Let me make something perfectly clear to you:

[You know that battlefield yell you pride yourself on? Have it back, dear.]

Turning off your pain receptors is not a replacement for repairs! It makes the damage worse, you thick-headed scrapheap!

... And yes, they are essential. Do not deactivate them.
heavyweaponsbot: (Event | Who needs so many scanners?!)

...

[He startles at that - is he really that loud? - which inevitably throws off his suddenly unstable balancing systems and sends him pitching into a wall.]

Did you have to do that...? You could have just said it.

... Not even one?

Apparently, simply saying it was not getting my point across.

And no, do not deactivate any of them. With our current run of luck, you'd be more likely to somehow activate one of the back-up scans instead.

[He just growls - which sounds... so weird coming out of this vocal processor.]

Back up scans? You have back up scans? Why do you have those?

[Video]

[identity profile] medicalofficer.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
... In order to obtain more in-depth data on a given situation or environment.

Hmnf...

Can you at least shut them down... dampen them... something... manually? Where are you, anyway?

[identity profile] messyturk.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Perfectly neutral.]

Shouting is hardly going to help the situation.

I will shout if I want to.

[Except that Ratchet's vocals aren't as suited to it.]

[identity profile] messyturk.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Self-absorbed as ever, I see.

[Yeah, Vincent--because hi, this is Vincent--can tell who this is.]

[Video]

[identity profile] medicalofficer.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I will see what I can do.

I am currently in... your quarters, I believe. It does seem rather empty.
heavyweaponsbot: (Event | Bumblebee this is not funny)

[personal profile] heavyweaponsbot 2010-09-08 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
If you think that, then you were not paying attention to the content of the shouting.
heavyweaponsbot: (Event | Alt | Suddenly less stylish)

[Audio]

[personal profile] heavyweaponsbot 2010-09-08 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
And yours are too full.

[He switches to audio and... transforms. What is this alt mode, Ratchet. Seriously.]

... We are getting you a new vehicle.

[identity profile] medicalofficer.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Clearly, he is not entitled to confusion then?

Shouting is a natural reaction, at least for Ironhide, to an unknown situation. Your commentary is highly unnecessary.
Edited 2010-09-08 20:44 (UTC)

[identity profile] messyturk.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
The content is no longer the issue. You're not the only one suffering from some kind of...displacement. Your insistence that your behavior in reaction is acceptable because you want it to be acceptable is self-absorbed.

[identity profile] messyturk.livejournal.com 2010-09-08 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[...Well. It's interesting to hear that voice being so CALM. Vincent is intrigued.]

Confusion is perfectly acceptable. However, his need to make an inordinate amount of noise every time something happens that he doesn't approve of, thereby adding to the pandemonium already settling into place in response to these recent events, is not.

And how was I to know? Some of us have better things to do than eavesdrop.

I have no interest in your opinions, or your lectures, human. If you have no useful information, or assistance, stow it.
