Recharge couldn't come soon enough. But first things first: repair assessments, if not the repairs themselves, or Ratchet would have his head. Heck, he was apparently here to take it.
Axiom Nexus makes him uneasy. The Transtechs are an unsettling mix of organic and mechanic; before he was handed his ream of paperwork he was informed of his 'rescue' from his timestream slip, and he'd be going home ... someday.
Right. And I'm a Prime. If he slipped and wasn't dragged - and that's unlikely, given that Ratchet, Ironhide, and Optimus are all here - something is drawing trans-dimensional beings to this city, this time ( ... )

Wheeljack hears the engine's roar echo off the walls of the alley, and he's just turning to greet the newcomer when the Tyran transforms and appears in the doorway. ...whoa, okay, that's kinda weird - a Bumblebee he can look at optic-to-optic. Not that he has any problem with this. It's kind of refreshing. The ping gets a bit of a flinch from the engineer, but then he realizes what it is and why - the other mech's already alluded his vocalizer not working - and opens the link readily enough as he steps forward, offering a hand.
"Hey. Find your way here okay?"

Yes, he writes, smiling and taking Wheeljack's hand with a clang of metal on metal. It's the first time he's met a mech with a face less expressive than his own; most mechs where he comes from have an arrangement of plating that allows for expressiveness. His own model lacks many of those lower jaw components. The Cybertronians like Cliffjumper and Jetfire have even more expressive, almost humanlike, faces. But Wheeljack lacks anything but optics.
Thanks for the directions. I'm getting the impression I'm a bit paranoid! Does nobody mind others knowing where they are?

He gestures for the mech to come in the rest of the way. "No problem, pal! An' . . . well, that's . . . kinda a good question." Considering the problematic Shockwave still at large, not to mention his own issues under a month ago. "Paranoid's not a bad thing, especially comin' outta a long-time war . . . an' knowin' the enemy's in the city too. Problem is . . . there's only two ways'a tryin' ta make it in this city that I can see - leadin' what most would call a 'normal' life, an' stayin' hidden. Unless ya turn ta theft ta support yourself, or have someone else who can help support you, stayin' hidden really isn't somethin' that can be done too easily for very long. Not that it can't be done, just not easily at all. But a 'normal life' isn't something ya can really do an' stay hidden either." He pulled a deep cycle of air through his vents. "I'm not gonna lie an' tell ( ... )
