...you're...looking well. [Well, this is good news. Especially seeing as he's just gotten HIS body back, too... Punishy times can now begin--not that one'd know that from his voice. Mostly, he sounds surprised, and certainly a bit pleased. He'll have to thank the lady spider, also.]
definetly did not almost accidently type 'fatest' thing in the airendless_avariceMay 25 2010, 00:00:46 UTC
[Pause] ...Strangely enough, yes.
[He hadn't thought about that. It wasn't like they were any different from before he became techno-organic. He must have been so much worse for them to appear lessened...]
How could you not? Once again, I am the fastest thing in the air.
I had my communicator volume up too far. Thanks for the reminder to turn it down.
[If Roger's expression is sour, it's probably because of the distinctly bronze little creature on his shoulder; it just woke up now and is busy screeching and flapping its wings furiously as it tries to hold on.]

Magnum. Good to see you again.
There was a classified ad a while ago offering eggs of a hexapodal endothermic species for adoption. I took one. Apparently they're called fire lizards. [He winces a little as the creature manages to steady itself by grabbing hold of his ear.] This one's only recently hatched.
[He has to make a number of wild assumptions based on that unfamiliar terminology, but ends up with something pretty close to the truth.] Its just been brought online, then. And you chose to be its caretaker?
Primus, it must be microscopic...[Given how small it was compared to Roger, and how small Roger was compared to him... Still, it is fascinating, in its own way.]
[Another jet? That nobody saw fit to inform him of? Unacceptable! How was he supposed to complete a trine without knowing how many suitable candidates were out there?]
Black Arachnia's machine. It seems to have finally done the job.
[Yet another person who doesn't know who he is! Even though Starscream is aware this isn't his universe, the very idea still irks him. How can they not know Megatron's Second-in-Command?]
Starscream. [He pauses.] ...The better one.
So there's a machine, you say? Where is it?! I demand you lead me to this Black Arachnia!
Starscream? [Another Starscream who doesn't look anything like Starscream? This is getting ridiculous. At least this one didn't look like a potato-chip.]
I will agree you look better than the other one here. But you still aren't /the/ Starscream.
[Shrugs] I wasn't aware one could use a tongue like that for anything other than eating. [Not that he's been online for very long. Starscream's memories are decidedly blank on the subject though as well]
I will admit, I was sort of fond of them as well... More is always better.
[It's odd to have this long of a civil conversation with one of the Tyran decepticons. Usually they kept to their own kind- by order of their Megatron.]

Absolutely fantastic. I no longer have to battle a constant urge to consume.

But yes. I approve of your new...old...body.

Are you less perverted now?

Oh, uh...my mistake. You know, must have misread the whole...you know...tongue thing.
[Eurgh. So few memories he'd created of this place and yet all so...disturbing.]
Kinda liked you with the bonus arms, really. Easier to grab more stuff that way.

I always follow through, darling.

[Apparently flattery was a good idea sometimes for getting what he wanted]
I'm assuming you'll be changing yourself back next? [Curious as to what she looked like before the whole spider thing]
Reply
[...Even though she had no real idea how she'd done this. But. Whatever.]
Of course. [...As soon as she figures out what she did to fix Dirge.]
