[heavyweaponsbot]

... Anyone else suddenly get a bad feeling?

As if something horrible has happened, and you have no power to set it right again?

[He has no idea where this feeling is coming from, or why it's there, but ignoring it isn't exactly helping anything.]

[It just makes him feel more and more restless.]

Need to go hit something. Badly.

I've been feeling that off and on since I got here, actually.

[He's just trying not to dwell on it.]

If you want something to hit that can withstand a few punches but won't get you punished, I can probably manage that.

[thii2ii22tupiid]

I feel that way all the time.
Being here just makes it worse.

I hear the outside walls are unbreakable, so you can just keep punching those until you break your fists or something.

*Hitting people is better but...*

[Audio] AS IF A THOUSAND VOICES CRIED OUT AND WERE SUDDENLY SILENT?! :D

[lightwithin]

What happened?

[Video]

[heavyweaponsbot]

[He squints his good optic at the video.]

You? One blow from me would shatter your frame, boy. And I care nothing for their punishments.

[Audio] PRETTY MUCH...

[heavyweaponsbot]

Nothing.

Nothing I know of. Just have a bad feeling.

[heavyweaponsbot]

Lucky you.

[A derisive snort.]

My frame is sturdier than that. And I am not so stupid as to damage myself over a feeling.

[thii2ii22tupiid]

I can tell it'd take more than a few hundred hits to do anything to you.

[Audio] \o/

[lightwithin]

Well, can you follow it?

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

What do you mean follow it?

[heavyweaponsbot]

First smart thing to come out of your mouth yet.

[Audio]

[lightwithin]

Well...

If there's somewhere you feel like you should be... Go there.

You might find out what's happened.

[Maybe.]

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

I feel I should be home.

[Audio]

[snowtop]

[Oh, Ironhide.]

N-Not... n-not right now, b-but... but... I-I know, what-- you mean.

I-I just--

I-I'm so... t-tired, of not being a-able to... do a-anything.

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

... You and I both, boy.

Something happen to you?

[Audio]

[lightwithin]

Mm.

Maybe... I can help

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Help us get home?

[Audio] Sealed

[snowtop]

[Xanth breathes in and then lets out a long sigh, sealing up the entry as he does. This isn't something everyone should hear.]

I-I...

D-Do you remember, b-back-- like-- i-it was like a-a month ago... w-when a whole b-bunch of people showed up? A-And, the, th-the next day, th-they were... g-gone?

[Audio] Sealed

[heavyweaponsbot]

[Ironhide doesn't answer right away.]

[He... doesn't answer for a while. When he does speak, his voice is low, ragged.]

Yeah. I remember.

[Audio]

[lightwithin]

Maybe.

[It's not like she's tried before.]

I have to find something first.

[And she has no idea where it is. But that's okay! Thinking isn't how this works.

Yes, this has the makings of an excellent plan. Really.]

[Audio] Sealed

[snowtop]

I-I saw... K-- Kairi. From, y-you know, the-- f-from... the-- Sh-Shore.

[The words don't come easily. He hasn't spoken about this to anyone yet, and part of him wants to, but part of him wants to forget the whole day.

There is a period of silence, but then, Xanth continues.]

Only, I, I-I think... sh-she was from-- a-a lot... a-a lot farther ahead, th-than... than w-we are...

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

Find what?

[Audio] Sealed

[heavyweaponsbot]

I... saw many. From the ship. One of Jak's people. Bryn. Zuko.

[His voice breaks a little on the last name. The boy had been another one Ironhide was very close to. Seeing him again...]

[After another pause, he speaks again.]

... Further ahead?

[Audio]

[lightwithin]

This world's heart.

[Audio]

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Find the what.

[Video]

[mister10below]

[Bobby smiles at that.]

Hey, I'm a lot tougher than I look.

[He pauses, then the next bit is said quickly.]

But, uh, no, I wasn't talking about me. I could make some walls, or something, maybe some sculptures.
