[Damn skippy you didn't. ]

Figures. [Lineface.]

I suppose it's better than you just...floating around in space or something.

[Not like he worried about that or anything. Nope. Not. At. All.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[Don't worry Ratchet Drift is a big boy he can take care of himself mostly.]

It's not like I wouldn't have just wandered aimlessly, you know.

[Well maybe he would have but hey.]

So, uh. I guess it's been a while, huh.

[old_school_medic]

[Just like he could 'take care of himself' back in Rodion? Yeah, right.]

Really.

[That's the gentle sound of Ratchet calling Drift's bluff.]

A while. Yes. [Long enough that Ratchet is going to activate Peer Intensely at Drift.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[Okay so shit happens sometimes totally no big deal.

Drift sees Ratchet's intense peering and counters with Subject Change.]

So um, Rodimus and Magnus are both here. According to them, I've missed kind of a lot.

[old_school_medic]

[Ratchet will let Subject Change stand. For now.]

Oh, just a few things. Tyrest going loony, Shockwave's latest end-of-the-world plot, females and oh, yeah, Megatron's captain, now.

[He is equally unthrilled about, well, most of them.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[oh good drift can feel clever for a while.]

O...kay. The Tyrest thing and the Megatron thing I heard about. Not so much the rest of that.

[old_school_medic]

[There's a relief: Ratchet didn't fancy having to go over all that 'tortured by Pharma and made a weapon out of Ambulon's dead body' thing. Drift might get all sentimental and weird.

He hates sentimental and weird.]

If you expect me to say we all came together and fought united in spark for the future of Cybertron....keep dreaming.

[In fact, he feels a little queasy even saying it in jest.]

The females are from Caminus. Thunderclash vouched for them.

[Which was good enough for Ratchet, at least.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[don't worry about sentimental weirdness he's been unloading that garbage on Rodimus]

I like to think I know you better than that. Either way, I figure something profound must have happened to make Megatron of all people switch sides.

[but anyway]

Oh. Well, if Thunderclash says so.

[Not even being sarcastic Thunderclash is like space Jesus.]

[old_school_medic]

[Ratchet couldn't think of a mech more deserving of being swamped with Drift's woo woo.]

He 'surrendered' on Earth, too, remember?

[So, in the 'profound' column, Ratchet's just going to write in 'it's a traaaaaaap'.]

They were less hard to deal with than, say, Whirl.

[A moment of awe at the sheer magnitude of the understatement there. D-Void is less hard to deal with than that mech.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[ha ha suck it Rodimus]

I'm trying to stay positive about it. Besides, it's not entirely unheard of for a Decepticon to realize their mistakes and switch sides.

And that's hardly a fair comparison. A lot of things are easier to deal with than Whirl.

[old_school_medic]

[You keep that between yourselves, Drift, you and Rodimus. Until medical intervention is required.]

Hng. You were just confused.

[And Ratchet was right back in Rodion, so there! ]

Says the mech who punched him out.

[So he's heard. From Whirl, no less.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

[uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

That doesn't really change what I said, does it.

[DAMN YOU RATCHET.]

...See I've tried to feel bad about that? But he really had it coming.

[old_school_medic]

No. Because you're still wrong. You're you. Megatron's Megatron.

[Is he going to have to draw a picture?]

Only thing Whirl doesn't have coming is a hug.

Fragger even managed to get himself a Rodimus Star.

[And believe Ratchet, he has opinions about that he'd like to bring up with Rodimus.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

Fine, fine. I don't feel like arguing at a time like this.

[No Ratchet godddddddd]

I wouldn't really take the Rodimus Star thing too seriously. Especially where Whirl is concerned.

[old_school_medic]

Fine. Pencil me in for when it's a better time.

[Because if Drift is going to argue that he and Megatron are somehow exactly the same, Drift's cruising for a smack upside the head.]

Do I look like I care about Rodimus and his little ego boosts?

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

You'll have plenty of time to nag me later.

[Don't worry, Drift's ridiculous but he has more sense that that. Probably.]

Well that was aggressive sounding.

[old_school_medic]

Plenty of time? Not sure you realize how much 'nagging' there is to do.

[Don't worry. He'll make a spreadsheet.]

And that's defensive sounding.

[Touche!]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

Not going to cut me a break at all, huh?

[ No come on don't go all Magnus on him.]

What has Rodimus even done? I mean besides... actually, don't... Don't answer that.

[because really what hasn't Rodimus done]

[old_school_medic]

Maybe. Eventually. If you're lucky.

[You feeling lucky?]

....you tell me. [Because someone has a few suspicions. That whole Overlord thing stank like an Insecticon carcass.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

Cutting me a break eventually doesn't sound like cutting me a break at all.

[No never lucky]

I mean... you know how he can get. Reckless and impulsive.

[And Drift ain't gonna say SHIT if Ratchet doesn't already know]

[old_school_medic]

Maybe you could try to earn it.

[You know, by not being a sparkly spiritualist in his general direction.]

Reckless and impulsive sounds like someone else I kjnow.

[POINTED LOOK.]

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

Oh yeah? How?

[But that it is impossible.]

And what's that supposed to mean!?

excuse my fatfingers there. orz

[old_school_medic]

By not being an idiot.

[Hey, you asked, Drift.]

It means I can't tell which of you is a worse influence on the other.

[That's not really true. He's just keeping that to himself right now.]

o pshaw

[happyclappyhippydrippy]

Are insults really necessary?

[Damn son DAMN]

Oh come on. You can't be serious.

[old_school_medic]

I saw in Rodion how much 'nice' did.

[No more nice for you, Drift!]

Who says I can't.

[Don't make him harrumph at you. ]
