[The video cuts in suddenly, static-laced and foggy at the edges as steam rolls by. Its Magnum, the faintest hint of terror being tightly locked under a grim visage as he is thoroughly power-washed by drones in The Silver Bullet's locker rooms.]

Soundwave.[He isn't bothering to lock this--that would take too much time, and he fears he has none

Acknowledged. [He straightens up, saluting with a fist to his chest--]

[houndofmegatron]

...Sir?

[not_your_gun]

Y...Yes Blackout?

[He's fighting it, but he also knows its fairly futile.]

Is there something...I...

can do for you?

Speak quickly.

[namesnotprowl]

Sounds like there's a problem?

[Barricade is so worried for you, Magnum.]

[not_your_gun]

[Growl.]

Nothing...I cannot...weather...

Though I am curious who managed to break into my room.

[He winces as a spray of water hits a particularly sensitive seam.]

I'll...need tighter...security...

It seems.

[namesnotprowl]

Someone broke into your quarters? Not smart of them. Not exactly kosher, either.
[Breaking into Blackarachnia's lab, on the other servo...]

Hope things turn out all right, though.

[Or he hopes they turn out hilarious.]

[not_your_gun]

Oh, I am sure.

...

[He stares for a moment.]

The Dog.

...

You.

Watch.

The Dog.

For me, until...?

[show_my_cannons]

Difficulties?

[Suddenly, someone doesn't particularly care if their resurrection is no longer a secret.]

[not_your_gun]

Go away, Ghost.

Please.

[show_my_cannons]

I would rather watch.

How does it feel, knowing what will happen, hmn?

[not_your_gun]

[You get a roar.]

Probably as wonderful as it feels to get your spark removed, hmm?

And you've survived.

Perfect.

[He laughs, a very not-well edge to the sound even over the rush of water.]

So Dirge can...

...so...Dirge...can.....

[His optics flicker.]

You're...really alive?

[sound_loyal]

[ . . . ]

[You are correct. Somehow, there are not. Admittedly, he has not wanted much to do with the virus, but now he can't avoid it.]

Virus samples: have been removed.

[ . . . ]

Understood.

All Hail: Megatron.

[onetruesikorsky]

[Just... chuckles, and watches. This is sweet, sweet revenge, indeed.]

[sound_loyal]

Explanation: Required.

[onetruesikorsky]

[For the record, he looks incredibly innocent. Innocent as a Decepticon Warlord can, anyway.]

Am I not allowed to find amusement in a fellow Decepticon's falling? He, after all, did the same for me.

[sound_loyal]

Negative.
