[Video. Not locked]
[The video starts by focusing on a large, empty dog bowl...which a cybertronian hand picks up for size reference.]
It turns out something of mine is missing. [He shakes some dust off the bowl.] And probably has been for some time. I can't imagine that a three-headed, one story tall organic canine can vanish easily, so I want him found. ( Read more... )

And so you rate your dog the same as one of your most loyal mechs.
[Halfway between shock and disgust. How could he have been so...wrong?]

Do not dare presume anything about my feelings toward Soundwave.
If you did not notice, there is a reason one broadcast precedes the other.

And yes. I imagine--I presume--that the reason is order of preferment.

[He's staring at Wing, knowing this...must be about something else.]
If you're going to presume, at least use some of that logic I know is in there somewhere: I didn't know Soundwave was gone before I'd already made the first part of the post.

This is a pretty shitty time for Soundwave go poof. Damn it.

Now, I'm looking for anyone good enough to track down an expert in communications.
[He...looks you over.] Good to see that you are back, Isaac. Find anything amiss?
Reply
Yeah, good luck with finding someone who wants to help you.
[He folds his arms, scowling.] I bet you're glad. And my suit is missing.
Reply
I did, and I'd like to have it back.
[He looks off, setting down the bowl.]
But right now, I'm a little more concerned about Soundwave. Believe it or not there are more important things in the Nexus than getting revenge on me....though I do know many who make a career out of it.

That armor that was very different to squeeze through?

[A point to be made.]

I got a favor to ask.

Do you have that kind of info?

[He's tentative about offering to help . . . but there's that concept of "enemy of my enemy" (or...whatever, the point being...) . . . not to mention if he can find Soundwave, he's got a damned good chance of finding Ratchet too!]
Megatron. I . . . might be able ta help. If ya still need someone. No promises, but I'd be willin' ta give it a shot.

We will need something like...a long range scanner, and fast.
The good news is, it only needs to be tuned to one frequency.
...
You are Wheeljack, I hope?

Yeah, I'm Wheeljack. I'm an inventor an' the Chief Engineer for my side. In my Stream, anyway.
Long-range scanner's no problem. I should be able ta pull together the components an' have one - actually, we'll need three - have 'em built by tonight.

[So was the speed at which he'd have the instruments in question ready by. This was exactly the sort of mech he needed right now, and for not the first time he was annoyed by the lack of his own Chief Engineer.
On the other hand, Isaac was taking care of something equally important, so the division of tasks seemed to have worked itself out.]
I can provide you with the necessary data, then. I would...prefer to do it in person, since I do not trust the network right now. If you can send the blue-haired female to the following coordinates...
[He provides a set.]
Then I will give her a disk with the relevant information that she can bring back to you.
Your devices must be capable of scanning outside of the Offworld Nexus proper. They won't be legal.
[He wants to make certain that Wheeljack is aware of this.]

Besides, you've just broadcast your intent to track him to the network at large. It's likely he, or someone who works for him, has seen this.

It is still better than doing nothing.
