Wake: *up to his ears in various wires, parts, odds, and ends, and loving every minute of it*
Rattrap: *stumbles out of the elevator, drunk, human, and smelling strongly of alcohol* Oh thank Primus... yer still here...
Wake: *looks up, frowns, and puts down the doohicky he was working on* Rattrap? What's wrong?
Rattrap: Iiiiiii.... dunno where m'crew is. *tumbles out of the elevator, trips, and goes crashing to the ground* Ffffffffffffffuck.
Wake: *frowns, moves to carefully pick Rattrap up* How much did you drink, Rat? I can smell it on you pretty bad... *concerned*
Rattrap: All'a it? *frowns, flopping his head against Wake's shoulder*
Wake: *small sigh, does a scanner sweep of the ship, looking for the rest of the crew* C'mon, Rat... Let's go find 'em.
Rattrap: *shakes his head fiercely, clinging to the mech's chest* Nononono.
Wake: ... Why not? *carefully rubs Rattrap's back*
Rattrap: Guess y'missed all th' yellin' an' runnin' 'roun' earliah....
Wake: ... *ears flat against his head, feeling a bit of shame for not being more aware of what was going on* Er... no... I... I was listening to human music...
Rattrap: S'all right. Din't wan'chu walkin' out on me too.
Wake: ... Like I would, after all the slag we've been through together? *trying to figure out what's going on, since he's not picking up anything on his scanners other than Rattrap*
Rattrap: Rhinox did. An' I dunno where Dinobo' wen', but he did too. An' Spazz was gonna, but I ran inta 'er on 'er way out an'... an'... *hiccups and presses his face into Wake's neck, tears rolling down his cheeks* *wails* I'M AN ASSHOLE!
Wake: ...*makes a mental note to go give Rhinox a talking to... probably won't be polite in any company* *clicks quietly, trying his best to be soothing*
Rattrap: I got 'em back... 'least Rhinox, but... but... dunno if I shoul' do dis... What if dis happens 'gain? Out in space? Den what'm I gonna do?
Wake: Maybe we should talk to everyone and clear the air or something... yanno, to keep it from happening again.
