Okay, haha, joke's on Fulcrum. It's hilarious, really.

But seriously, I'd like to know where my stuff is. Y'know, what few belongings I have in this place anyway.

My flat's suddenly looking more vacant than usual. So, whoever's playing this little prank, you got me. You got me good. I applaud you. Now give it back.

Huh? Purple Decepticon--oh you mean him. Spinster or whatever.


Yeah, I had to separate you two if I was gonna get any training done. You were just chattin' away.

[If he can trust anyone to be honest with him, it's probably going to be Chromia and Nautica. Chromia especially is good with the blunt side of things. So hearing this makes him pause and almost look like he's in pain.]

O-oh. All right. Thanks.

...Fulcrum?


[She knows that look, that one that Windblade always tries to pull when she's hurt. "I'm okay, but really I'm not"]

What's wrong?

[Video]

[forcowardice]

I, um. [He briefly debates not telling her, but discards the idea. She'd probably find a way to get it out of him, anyway, so he might as well be honest.]

Chromia? I don't remember that happening. I don't remember him. Or the other Decepticons that are here.

But everyone's acting like I should.

...You didn't hit your head during training, right?

[It's a stupid question. She knows he didn't. But...there's a sliver of hope that it's the case.]

You remember me, though. That can't be right--you knew these guys before all this scrap. So why me and not them?

[Video]

[forcowardice]

Pretty sure. You were nice enough to avoid punching my head.

[That's spoken a bit wryly, but he's a little too distressed to really smile.]

I... I don't know. Do I know him well? Did it seem like it?

[Video]

[toughtalk]

[While her lip twitches, she keeps that stern face. This really shouldn't be a joking time, she knows. Especially if it's hurting him this badly.]

I can't say for sure but...you were smiling while talking to him. Spoke pretty casually.

[Video]

[forcowardice]

Oh.

I don't-- I don't remember any of that. I remember showing up and then you dragging me off. I don't remember talking to anyone before that.

[Video]

[toughtalk]

...

Fulcrum, this is way too...specific. I'm no doc, but...


[A sigh.]

What do you need? I can grab Ratchet.

[Video]

[forcowardice]

N-no, no. I can... I can do it.

Thanks, Chromia. I'll get this figured out. Somehow.
