[For anyone in his household, Sideswipe has been sprawled in bed ever since Jolt's rescue operation concluded. He hasn't tried to move much, since walking with a broken leg is damn hard, and his ribs are still busted up

I dunno. Get stronger? Work out more? What the hell did ya manage ta do to yerself anyway?

[weaponsparked]

I broke my frame up. Legs and torso.

[freakinblur]

Well there's a few ways ya can take care of it. See a doctor, find someone with some kinda crazy healing superpower, 'r have someone off ya so ya respawn all fine tomorrow.

An' if ya see a doctor? Be careful of Fran. She fixed me up good. TOO good. Went in ta get my leg patched up, an' she thought it'd be fun ta poke around in my head!

[weaponsparked]

Already seen more than I care to. They were the ones that pulled me off the ground... and no. I'm not going to die. I won't do that to Jolt.

... Who's Fran?

[a_gentle_boy]

. . . You shouldn't be talking so loud until your ribs are better. Ask Mr. Jolt to turn on the TV for you.

[weaponsparked]

There isn't one in the bedroom.

[WHINE.]

[a_gentle_boy]

Oh. Do you like reading?

[weaponsparked]

Depends on the subject matter, I suppose.

[convallariaceae]

Hmmm...so I assume lesson learned, then?

[weaponsparked]

... Hardly.

[convallariaceae]

Ah, how sad.

It seems your intelligence is even less than I had hoped.

[weaponsparked]

Says the one who ran away.

[weiss_tank]

You learn a lot of card games.

[weaponsparked]

Learn what?

[weiss_tank]

Card games, like solitaire, crazy 8's, spite and malice...that sorta thing.

[weaponsparked]

... I don't know what any of that is.

[godisachild]

You get used to it and adapt.

[weaponsparked]

You adapt to fragile framework? I doubt it's that simple.

[godisachild]

Fine.

You get used to pain and the time it takes to heal. That, or you just crack whenever you're in pain. It can go either way.

[weaponsparked]

Well, aren't we just a little ball of sunshine today.
