'''(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'Scales....are you okay? Still tryin to reach you.

'''< irc.dal.net>  Just waiting for the go ahead to collect our dead/injured. And preparing for phase 2.'''

'''< irc.dal.net>  Phase Two? What's phase two? They said that thing was dead!'''

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Nnnnn.." to Stormfront.'''

'''< irc.dal.net>  Its dead, yes. But theres a whole planet that needs to go on. A war that hasnt paused in the least bit.'''

< irc.dal.net> <> I'm enjoying the peace for the moment.

'''< irc.dal.net>  Well, yeah, 'course not. Unless the Autobots surrendered while I was unconcious.'''

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'Scales...are you okay?'

'''(Radio) You transmit, "'M s'eepin'.." to Stormfront.'''

< irc.dal.net> <> That new red logo looks great on you...

'''(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'OH you are sleeping. Well no one has seen you. We are getting worried. You aren't sleeping where someone transforming will squish you right?

'''< irc.dal.net>  Eh. The Autobots wouldn't want me.'''

'''< irc.dal.net>  yeah, right. Autobots wouldn't take me'''

< irc.dal.net>  I dont think either of us are well behaved.

< irc.dal.net> <> You are assuming that I am?

'''(Radio) You transmit, "'M safe... Most peoples can't fit in 'ere." to Stormfront.'''

'''< irc.dal.net>  The Decepticons found ways to tame wayward personalities. Why wouldn't the Autobots have ways as well?'''

'''< irc.dal.net>  Tame? Heh, yeahhhhh, I guess you could call what Megatron does "taming" -- didn't know the Autobots would go in for that kinda thing. Not publically, anyway. I mean, they tried something liek that with the Constructicons back in the day but…'''

< irc.dal.net>  I for one am not tamed.

< irc.dal.net>  ...slag.

< irc.dal.net>  Just have to figure out how to present something to my higher ups.

'''< irc.dal.net>  I am looking for a contact on the other side. We have wounded that need to be returned to us. Page me for my frequency.'''

< irc.dal.net> <<<Voidwalker>>> Give me a bit.

'''Compared to Fortress Maximus' medical bay, the Iacon Medical Center is pretty quiet. The badly injured and those of other factions were rushed to the big guy, leaving those Autobots who were less urgent to come here to rest and wait for their turn with the medics.'''

'''For all that there's been people working here, the Director has been conspicuously absent. The paperwork did get done, though, sometime in the night, and Scales' little office is open, the door slightly ajar.'''

'''Springer heads into the Medical bay, holding a rather large box of energoodies. He pauses just inside and looks around before hmming to himself and moves forward to sit on one of the empty desks and pops it open, pulling out one to chew on a bit as he looks around the bay.'''

'''While some of the gumbies may look over in curiousity, they leave the Wrecker alone. Nobody seems inclined to ask what he's doing here.'''

< irc.dal.net> <Visitor 1042> …

< irc.dal.net> <<Whirlwind>> Their idea of taming involved giving me more responsibility.

< irc.dal.net> <<Whirlwind>> Sorry...spaced out for a few moments.

< irc.dal.net> <Visitor 1042> did it work?

'''< irc.dal.net> <<Whirlwind>> Yes...I guess. I have my moments. But I am a better mech for it.'''

'''Springer puts one to the side as he looks up and around and opens another one, "You know not going to go away, Scales. And a Director shouldn't be hiding now should they? Especially during a time like this." He starts chewing on the next one and just waits.'''

< irc.dal.net> <Visitor 1042> I kind of gave myself responsibility once

'''After a moment, there's a quiet radio response from somewhere nearby, << Go 'way. Don' wanna. >>'''

'''Springer keeps chewing a bit, "I'll start singing if you don't, Scales." A few of the wounded and gumbys flinch at THAT.. Singing is NOT one of the Green Machine's strong points.'''

It might threaten the gumbies, but it seems it's not enough to get the tape to come out.

'''Springer looks at the Gumbies, "Any of you want to help me out here? No? Ok." He clears his throat and does just what he said he would do.. and sings.. badly.. offkey and one of the more raunchiest ones a Transformer knows. While chewing on another goodie.'''

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'message me when you wake up'

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Neh... 'm awake. Springer's singin'." to Stormfront.'''

'''Scales does not emerge, not even to yell at Springer. She knows this tactic.'''

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'didn't know he could sing....maybe that's why all the femmes....err nevermind.'

'''Springer keeps up the singing, though he does get up and passes around some goodies to the others being forced to listen to the singing. Finally he stops and sighs a bit before sitting back down, this time singing a more calming and relaxing song.'''

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Oh, good.. he stopped singin' the bar songs. Ugh.." to Stormfront.'''

'''After a bit, the quiet radio grudgingly admits, << That one's nice. >>'''

Springer pauses a bit and looks up and pats the table next to him, "Come on out? I only have a bit of time before I need to deploy for a mission. Want to see my favorite pretty dinogal."

'''There's another wait before there's a reply. << I don't wanna. 'S safe here. >>'''

Springer tilts his head to the side "And? You goning to stop doing what you always do? help people? Cant do that from in there."

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'I know one about a baby shark you might like...or this other one that doesn't have an ending....'

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Meh.. not right now.." to Stormfront.'''

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'Puff the magic dragon?'

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Only the original Peter, Paul, an' Mary." to Stormfront.'''

'''The next reply begins as almost a wail, << I -can't-.. I did my work. Don' yell at me. >>'''

'''(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'that one isn't bad. The seal one isn't had either.

'''Springer sighs, "I'm not yelling, Scales. There's beings that need your help and your hiding in a vent." He leans back a bit where he's sitting, "Come out and talk to me.. you know I'll protect you."'''

'''(Radio) You transmit, "Too slow. Like the original better." to Stormfront.'''

'''After another wait, the tiny green head peeks carefully from behind the door to Scales' office. She's pressed against the wall as if at any moment somebody might jump out and grab her.'''

'''Springer simply sits and waits, smiling a bit as he at least see's her poke her head out.. and again he pats right next to him.'''

'''Scales skitters across the floor and hops up, curling up close. She normally feels rather warm, but today her scales are cool to the touch.'''

'''Springer hmss then reaches over and slowly but carefully picks up Scales and sets her on his lap and pets her softly, "It's okay to be scared.. just can't let it overcome you." He shifts a bit and pulls out a energoodie and sets it next to her.'''

'''Scales picks up the energoodie and nibbles quietly. Her optics, rather than cycling through the rainbow spectrum, are blue rimmed with yellow and a hazy green where the two colors touch, the colors pulsing back and forth slightly.'''

'''Springer just... be's there for the moment, stroking along Scales' back lightly.'''

Scales finishes the treat and leans against Springer, a tiny bit of warmth returning to her frame.

(Radio) Stormfront sends you a radio transmission, 'https://youtu.be/PyAdps2W-ZA'

'''The colors in Scales' optics warm slightly, too. She tilts her head slightly as if thinking, then cuddles up against Springer again.'''

(Radio) You transmit, "https://youtu.be/1iEf-Vn-vfE" to Stormfront.

< irc.dal.net> <<Whirlwind>> https://youtu.be/2CFBHThW7Dk

Springer just pets her for a bit longer, a few more goodies being placed next to her, "You feeling any better?"

'''Scales warms up slowly as she nibbles more energoodies. She makes a non-committed sound to Springer, but her optics are settling into a more normal pattern. Still a lot more blue than usual.'''

'''Springer grins and keeps up the soft petting, "My pretty pretty draggie." He does give the others in the room the Look.. that bad things will happen if they even considered teasing Scales.'''

Springer just keeps petting Scales softly, the box of goodies sit next to him and open so she can get any she wishes, the Wrecker just doing his best to be there for a friend.

Scales quietly nibbles energoodies and rests.
