This is Ratchet. Who else hails from Cybertron on this ship?

[Ratchet? That...that is not good.]

[But this encryption is just different enough from what he was used to that maybe...]

[But Ratchet was always prone to experimenting.]

[How to deal with this. How to...Think of what made Cliffjumper different, Heatwave. Hold it together.]

What insignia do you wear and what color is it?

The Autobot sigil in red, of course.

[Would Ratchet have known about Cliffjumper's insignia? Did Cliffjumper ever meet Ratchet?]

[Would Ratchet even care about pretending?]

[His next words come after a pause.]

I am Heatwave.

I am not familiar with the designation.

[have a short, unamused laugh] I guess you wouldn't be.

...If you're from Cliffjumper's universe he never claimed there was a mech with my designation.

I know of Cliffjumper, but he perished quite a few cycles back.

[What.]

What? How? If he just disappeared, that might have been when he was dropped into my universe. Small, red, very loud and aggressive?

I was the one who watched him die despite my skills as a medic.

Oh.

I'm sorry. He was a friend of mine. Or...a version of him. He was alive last I saw him.

You're an Autobot?

He was a good soldier and a fine Autobot. And yes, I am an Autobot as well. Why do you ask?

I'm trying to convince myself you aren't going to cut anyone open during their recharge. There isn't a good way to say that.

Not that I think you would, just from the way you're talking. But I have a lot of hard-earned battle programs telling me otherwise. It's not personal, it's just that you're kind of crazy where I come from.

That is utterly reprehensible. That is certainly nothing I would ever do to anyone, regardless of faction.

I am not the Ratchet you know of. I fight to save lives, not take them in mad schemes.

I understand. I'll just have to remind myself on a regular basis. I'm sorry, reflexes are hard to lose, and you're - he's - one of our worst nightmares.

Let me try this again. I am Heatwave and it's good to meet a fellow Cybertronian. I thought I was alone for a bit there.

I promise not to do any bad science on you, or anyone else. Unless they are harming others, I should add.

A pleasure to meet you, Heatwave. I take it your world is a bit different from the one I am familiar with?

I'm sure you won't [he isn't being sarcastic either, but he's sleeping with something hard and bludgeon-capable tonight anyway.]

Very. If you meet anyone claiming to be an Autobot, but they believe their symbol is purple, stay away from them. Most of them are too crazy to care about deception, but the ones who aren't? Aren't guys you want to be around, and since it appears you're the only Cybertronian medic here right now...

You are a medic, right? [for all he knew, this Ratchet could be a gun-toting frontliner with issues and a bad attitude when he's not talking to other Cybertronians on a strange network on a strange ship.]

Primus. [Ratchet has a processor ache. Wait he has a brain now, so a headache? Oh organics.]

Chief Medical Officer of the Autobots. I have a few other titles if you wish to know. [Not a bad attitude, just a blunt one. And he's had to serve as a frontliner with some wicked weaponry.]
