[Video / Private to Nautilus (the city entity itself)] - Lab residents might overhear this recording

[Wheeljack is sitting at a table in his personal room at his workshop, facing his journal.  His chin is propped in one hand, and he's toying with one of the little plastic dinosaurs that the city gave him in the other.  He's still in need of that washing he never got from first arriving back to the city after a week only to find that all hell had ( Read more... )

[Maybe ten minutes after he's stopped hearing Wheeljack talk (no he didn't hear what exactly, but he heard the tone), he'll slip in and behind his friend, making just enough noise that Wheeljack will know he's there before resting his hands on the other mech's shoulders]

[In those ten minutes, the engineer had hauled himself up to his feet and tried puttering around the room. He had a few minor projects in here he was fiddling with. He'd retrieved one to try to work on and sat back down at his workbench . . . but found himself sitting with his face in his hands, elbows propped on the table before he was really aware of having taken such a position.

It was a testament to just how weary and out-of-sorts Wheeljack was feeling that he didn't register the sounds, didn't react to Jazz until he felt on hsi shoulders. He jumped, shifting around with the near arm coming up to block, to defend himself, but then he recognized his friend and he made himself relax, the tone of a grin, albeit subdued, in his voice.]

Jazz. Hey. How're ya doin'?

I'm fine. [He gave his friend a soft smile and...pulled him to his feet and into a hug.] Are you all right, Wheeljack?

[Wheeljack stands on reflex, "obeying" in a sense, but resists the embrace. For all of about three astro-seconds. He's clinging more than he'd like but...] I... ['I'm fine', but the words don't quite make it out. And Jazz knows him too well anyway.]

I . . . I-I will be. Just . . . just tired, s'all. Frustrated an' tired.

[Action] S'okay, you already know I can read your mind so I knew what you meant. ^_~ doin_it_w_style May 21 2010, 16:11:45 UTC
I know. I know you will be and I know you're not right now, so right now, I'm here. [He'd hold on for as long as Wheeljack seemed to need.]

[There's a faint, static-y buzz from the engineer's vocal modulator, indicator flanges flickering softly, as he...j-just nods.]
