*mournfully* Oh, my poor darling Edwina Redding... *more normal + concerned* ...but what the Pit was that oddball medic telling Eddie right before she left?

...

*looks to Primus ((I actually have no idea where this is, but I suspect that it's ground-wards, since Primus is supposed to be the planet Cybertron)) *

*desperately* Oh, Holy

Comments

Snapshot: *le optic roll* [reaches behind over his shoulder and smacks the wall-comm] Yo, Aid.

First Aid via comm: Yes?

Snapshot: How's our paranoid princess doing?

First Aid: ... Code Red's fine. Is that all?

Snapshot: *brightly* That's it! [reaches behind and smacks the comm off] Ask, and ye shall recieve~

[pyrospectacle]

*slightly reassured* Well, I suppose that a medic's opinion is a rather reliable reassurance. Still, I...[w/ a hopeful smile] *soft chuckle* I would have preferred that Code Red herself had answered me.

*!* Oh, wait--I completely forgot; Eddie-darling said she was going to the medbay to rest. Ehehehehehe... *sweatdrops*

[more cheerfully] Ah, in that case, please do disregard that last statement before I remembered that fact. My apologies.

[chopperaerials]

*!* Ooh, hey, Snaps! Do me a favor and call up First Aid again; I need to know if, uh, *makes air-quotes w/ his fingers* 'Eddie-darling' is going to give my hatchet back sometime within the next few megacycles.

Arson: *shouts disbelievingly* You cannot be serious! You [points angrily @ TraumaHawk] are more worried about your hatchet than you are about you Security Director! [pulls a disgusted face + snarls] You’re a real piece of work.

*annoyed* Well, excuse me if I do not have the same sense of morality as yourself. But know this, sir, that hatchet has saved me more times than I could presently count, and, if I may say so myself, heh...*wry smile* well, I’m rather...attached-yeah, that works-to my hatchet, sir.

*claps hands* So! Now that that’s been said, [turns to Snapshot], Snaps! Turn on that comm and let me hear Rose Red-dearest say ‘Yes, You may have your hatchet back, and now’! *pumps fist* Whoo!

[red_code_red]

Snapshot: *overexaggerated sigh* [punches the comm once again] Aid.

First Aid: [sounds like he's trying to cover up slight exacerbation] Yes, Snapshot?

Snapshot: *doesn't care* Ol' Hawkeye here wants to know if Code Red gave him the okay on his hatchet.

First Aid: ... You're kidding, right?

Snapshot: *brightly* Nope!

First Aid: Well, you can tell TraumaHawk that what he said to Code Red threw her so off guard that she's having me run every kind of deep scanning diagnostic program available on her.

Snapshot: But, I thought you said she was fine.

First Aid: Oh, she is. But she's not buying it. Now if you'll excuse me. [cuts off the comm]

Snapshot: [just looks over to TH and shrugs]

Happy New Year!

[red_code_red]

Snapshot: [looks back and forth between Arson and TraumaHawk] Great as this is, Hawkeye, you do realize that as soon as Red hears about this--and you know she will *significant glance to the security camera*--you're never leaving that cell again.

*blows noisemaker--Fwee!* Note: this is a @#$%-ing long post--kudos if you get through it all.

[pyrospectacle]

TraumaHawk: *face falls* ...Oh, no. No, NO, NO, absolutely NOT; that cannot happen, I- [suddenly gets an idea] *yells* I call ‘medical emergency’, ma'am!

*unsure* Exactly how is a medical emergency going to help? ...Well, I suppose that it would keep you out of the brig for a little while, but you would probably still be under heavy guard, even while confined to your ship’s medbay, maybe even while being restricted to quarters.

TraumaHawk: Not that kind of medical emergency-I’m ordering a familial spark-frequency test, now. That is the one thing that can’t be denied to anyone, prisoner or not, by Primus...

*blinks + stares incredulously* ...I honestly thought...that it would be obvious that we were in no way related. There is no way in all Creation that could ever be possible; there’s just no way-

TraumaHawk: *stops him* Yeah, I know. You know that, and I know that, but this all looks incredibly suspicious; I mean, even the densest individual could draw the wrong conclusion-

[with absolute conviction] And yet, we have

... Wow.

[red_code_red]

Snapshot: ... Yeah, like she'll take your word for it. *le optic roll*

*sweatdrops* Yeah...I must have still been high off the new year's mood.

[chopperaerials]

Arson: Well, we could always go back to the other option and perform the familial spark-frequency test anyway; perhaps that is the hard evidence that our darling Eddie would prefer.

[happily gives a thumbs-up] Coolio! *grins* Evidence doesn't lie, especially the kind that's easily understood by the masses! *laughs* Let's get that test, the administering medic, and the audience right here, right now, 'cause we are in business!

As well as the initial packing...

[red_code_red]

[Code Red says nothing, just sort of smirks and goes to sit at her desk, getting back to work; both Arson's and TraumaHawk's final comments trigger her sneaky sense of humor, and now she plans on taking even longer looking over TH's hatchet]

Snapshot: *snickers; he knows what's going on*

[pyrospectacle]

[As Arson is a spy, he can read others down to the last twitch; he knows something’s up, but his processors are currently clouded with “Hey, it’s Eddie! What could go wrong?” Arson, you hopeless romantic...] Oh? Are you going to stay here with us, darling? *smiles cheerfully* I look very forward to your company, sweetspark.

TraumaHawk: *strangled wheeze* [Yep, he’s still passed out. But that’s okay, he’s his own medic, and when they bring down the familial spark-frequency test, he’ll probably wake up when they prod him w/ the cables.]

[gazes at TraumaHawk, then turns back to Code Red] ...I do not think that...TraumaHawk will awaken any time in the immediate future. Perhaps we should allow him to continue his rest. However, this is my own suggestion, whereas the final outcome is solely your own, darling. *gazes fondly at her + smiles*

[to himself + high on love] Oh, how wonderful...she’s just so lovely... *sighs happily*

[red_code_red]

((Do we want to say that this one is a wrap? Because here, in my opinion, is a good place to end it. I can set up another journal entry for her where she finds out that Arson and TH know each other from before. Or if you want to keep going with this one here. *shrugs*))

[pyrospectacle]

Yeah, let's stop here. Come next entry, may the madness begin.

Have I mentioned that I love this woman?
