[Well this was unexpected. Bryn flipped her comm on and locked her reply to Ironhide as well as she could.]

Sure, what's up?

[Locked to // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 19:29:33 UTC

[This is perhaps the most awkward response Ironhide has ever given Bryn in their short association.]

... You are King's mate. He... spoke of commemorating a day. That was important to you.

How... how does... that work? With your kind?

[Bryn isn't entirely sure what Ironhide is talking about at first, but she seems to vaguely recall King mentioning that Ironhide had asked him about marriage before. Or weddings. Or something like that.

She took a stab in the dark and figured it had something to do with that, but just in case...]

You mean like...days commemorating relationships right? Not like, birthdays or some other kind of holiday, right?

[Locked to // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 19:48:26 UTC

[He'd give her the word, if he could fully recall it. Which, right now, he can't.

Ratchet's fascinated by humans - their culture, and everything about them. It's the only reason he's asking. He figures the other 'Bot would appreciate it.]

Yeah. That kind of thing. We... do not have "birthdays".

Numbers, obviously.

[Okay, okay, more seriously this time.]

Crew IDs maybe? Notice how they snapped to when he yelled. I got a couple theories, but nothing solid, and nothing I'd want to talk about over the network.

[Locked // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 19:30:52 UTC

Your grasp of the obvious is inspiring.

[He snorts]

Yeah. I saw that. Wanted someone else's take on it... but I have not noticed any missing crew, aside from the first mate. He should have noticed that weeks ago.

[Locked to Ironhide // 99% Unhackable] twopistols October 31 2010, 19:49:28 UTC

[He's getting better at this locking thing. Pretty soon he'll be up to unhackable, too.]

Could have something to do with unwanted visitors.

[Did you meet Eiren, Ironhide? Are you thinking what Torn's thinking?]

[Locked // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 20:03:07 UTC

[This locking thing is easy when you're a robot. Good luck, Torn.]

Yeah. It could.

I need some air.

[On the top deck, specifically. Get it?]

Pay attention. You were down there, weren't you?

heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 19:31:48 UTC

Am I not allowed to ask for opinions?

There were many places down there.

ttlynotawizard November 1 2010, 21:15:15 UTC

Only one with numbers of interest.

[Locked to Ironhide// 50% Unhackable] hadalotofsugar October 31 2010, 19:59:26 UTC

Sure, what is it?

[Locked // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 20:04:06 UTC

[Ironhide sort of sounds as if he's being tortured by asking this question.]

... You and your female. Said you wanted... to commemorate some... day.

How?

[Locked to Ironhide// 50% Unhackable] hadalotofsugar October 31 2010, 20:12:08 UTC

[lolwat.]

...What kinda day here, buddy? Are we talking anniversary, or -

[...Wait.]

You mean getting married?

[Locked // Unhackable] heavyweaponsbot October 31 2010, 20:15:52 UTC

No. Not--No. That... is... eugh, no.

[Marriage - it's private, is what he's failing to say.]

Anniversary. That was what you called it.
