ENCRYPTED; 1/something idk

[notsoloyal]

Soundwave!

ENCRYPTED;

[notsoloyal]

There you are! Why didn't you wait?

ENCRYPTED;

[notsoloyal]

I already informed you that you do not need to worry about me so much. I would have been fine, you realize. And what the slag happened to you? I spent the whole night searching!

ENCRYPTED;

[notsoloyal]

Some of us still require sleep every now and then, and you do make it so difficult when you sudden decided to go missing! Furthermore--

...

Wait...

[Voice | Private]

[vision_in_stone]

...Haven't heard from you in a long time. What's up, Soundwave?

[Voice | Private]

[allshock_notalk]

...
I WISH.
TO PROVIDE AN APOLOGY FOR MY SILENCE.

[Voice | Private]

[vision_in_stone]

Well, that's-

[Pause. Thinking. That's not like him, he's an evil space robot. Apologies don't usually come from evil space robots, do they?]

Are you okay?

[Voice | Private]

[allshock_notalk]

I AM FINE, TOPH.

[Although if they were in person, she could probably tell that he was lying.]

YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO ACCEPT MY APOLOGY.
HOWEVER. I WISHED TO MAKE IT KNOWN.
...
YOU WERE CONSIDERED A WEAKNESS BY OTHERS.
THAT NO LONGER MATTERS TO ME.

[ENCRYPTED/Audio/Video] Aaaaa I have to run to work but I'll be back as soon as I can okay

[Hi, Soundwave. This is Trowa realizing that you're asking a very unusual question... and that you never do such things unless you need to know the answer.]

[You ever hear the kid panic before? Few people have.]

This is Trowa, returning the message as requested--

Where are you, Soundwave? Do you require assistance?

[ENCRYPTED/Audio/Video] No problem!

[allshock_notalk]

ASSISTANCE: NOT REQUIRED.
I WISH TO.
...
APOLOGIZE. TO YOU AND QUATRE.

[ENCRYPTED/Audio/Video] No problem!

[pacifisted]

Then why do you need to kn--

[Cuts himself off.]

...What?

[ENCRYPTED/Audio/Video]

[allshock_notalk]

FOR MY ACT OF VENGEANCE ON HIM.
I APOLOGIZE.
IT WAS. ... ILLOGICAL. AND DAMAGING.
ULTIMATELY, NO BENEFIT FOR ANYONE.

[Voice]

[spacetimeprime]

Everything I could.

[no, he doesn't know what's going on. but he's also been in the mentioned situation before - and he also...doesn't know why, but this question /feels/ strange.]

[...might be nothing.]

[Voice]

[allshock_notalk]

EVERYTHING?
...EXAMPLES?

[Voice]

[spacetimeprime]

Speak words. Make arrangements. Ensure that those who would be left behind would be capable of functioning without me.

VECTOR PRIME.
QUERY: IF I REQUESTED YOU TO PROTECT SOMEONE, WOULD YOU?

[littleprovolone]

I'd try to let the people that matter the most to me know that I love them very much. I'd try to spend time with them, and hope they remember the good times with me, not the sad things.

[allshock_notalk]

[Oh. It's her. This was one of Skyfire's friends, wasn't it? Soundwave considers a moment.]

QUERY: IF YOU COMMITTED MISTAKES, SHOULD THEY BE LEFT ALONE?

[encrypted]

[littleprovolone]

Well, it would depend on if those mistakes hurt someone. If it were me, I'd try to clear the air, but I think I'd try to do that anyway.

What kind of mistake did you make?

[encrypted]

[allshock_notalk]

SEVERAL.
SEVERAL THAT HARMED MANY.
SOME I DO NOT REGRET. SOME THAT... PERHAPS SHOULD BE REMEDIED.
