No, organics don't have detachable weaponry. Unless you count like...spitting. [And other stuff...ewwwwwww.]
In fact, you're pretty much unarmored and weaponless. Why, if someone came to try to steal all that treasure...you'd be pretty powerless to stop them, wouldn't you?

Sorry to bring you down, squishyjet. Honestly I'm just trying to make you aware of the situation so you can, you know, take steps. Proactive instead of reactive. Prevention instead of panic.
[See? Time to turn on the Devious part of your brain, there, Dirge.]
[And this question will distress you but...it's inevitable. Srry.]
Wow. No chrono? That's rough. You mean in all that...stuff you have back there, there's no chronometer?
I'd put that at the top of the list.
Hey! look on the bright side! As a squishy, you get to wear all sorts of sexy clothes and stuff, right? You could go shopping. That'd be, you know, kind of fun. I...guess.
[He really thinks this will cheer Dirge up. Shopping spree!]
[He thinks about the specimens he saw in Egypt. No, they didn't have built in storage. Awful design, really. But Dirge was finally brightening up, so...let's keep that editorial to ourselves, Skywarp.]
I don't think so. Most of the squishies I did see [Keeping in mind that was not much and mostly from watching episodes of COPS and Gossip Girl that had bounced off satellite feeds] had detachable chronos on their wrists.
I'm sure you can buy one when you get more clothes. And yeah, some squishies change their clothes. A lot, apparently. You should look into it. I mean, no sense being miserable, right?
Can't fly or anything, but you can have a stylin' wardrobe.
Who said anything about paying? You're an enterprising mech, and if I recall correctly, related (somehow and he doesn't really want to think too hard about this) to Starscream. Surely some devious plottage can ensue.
If not, ask them if they can take credit and then stiff 'em. [Disclaimer: do not take Skywarp's credit counseling advice. He is not a licensed credit counselor or attorney.]
Fickle, fickle, fickle, Dirge.
And...you're impressed by having *toes*?
[Bayjet feet have adorable toes.]

Is that what these are? What do they do? Do they come off?

Yes. Those are toes. I do not recommend--I very strongly do not recommend--that you try to remove them. Especially if your system is entirely organic.
They help stabilize you when you walk.
[Okay, enough Mr Welcome To Your Wonderful Body]
I hear they taste good. Maybe you could try licking them?

Oh... Interesting. Although I was kind of hoping you could shoot them off- like a weapon or something?
[Ridiculous grin] Really? Hold on- [tries a few times to get his foot close enough to his mouth to lick] Nrrgh... doesn't really...reach.

I cannot let that happen. [Contacts Soundwave] No one will touch my things. No one.

In fact, now that you're smaller, you probably can't see all your stuff right now or run a scanning inventory.
[Oh teh noes!]
Someone might have swiped something already! I mean...when do you last remember being, you know...normal?

No no no no no~ [Whine] This is terrible! [Congrats- you've managed to ruin his good mood]
...I woke up from recharge like this.

How long were you in recharge?

...Just for a night cycle. Although, I don't know the exact time for sure, since I don't seem to have an internal chronometer anymore.

Clothes? Oh yes! These things... [glances at sleeve] I can have more of these? [glint]

But... I don't like this idea of paying for the clothes. [Thinking]
