Tick Tock BANG!

[vandalization]

WHO: Whirl, Perceptor and the local Yellow Hat.
WHERE: The Medibayyyyish? Outside the Medbay.
WHEN: Nowwwwwwwwww?
WHAT: Whirl decides to take Vandal for an uninvited ride. Perceptor shoots him.
WARNINGS: Whirl. Vandal. Vandal, Vandal, Vandal.



This place is definitely not entirely fun all the time. When the robots aren't around she's left to think, and quite honestly she's fucking tired of her own mind right now. There's been a headache that just won't leave today.

Even after she wrote into that notebook- that usually helps, but not today.

Kicking at the dust on the steps of the temple, she can feel the itch of her healing wounds as a counterpoint to the cool air outside.

Yeah, okay. Abandon him, too. Whatever.

"Whirl is fraggin' fine."

He steps backward, clicking as he puts weight on his injured leg.

"Trust me. You can't fix me."

[percept]

Finally Perceptor drops his gun, attention flicking between Vandal and Whirl. At least the human doesn't seem any more damaged than she was before. Whirl on the other hand...

"She's right, Whirl. You need to see a medic."

[vandalization]

"I'm not leaving you out here all hurt like that."

Weird to say 'hurt' when applying it to a machine. But they're alive, and they seem to feel pain all the same so...

"Seriously Whirl. If you come get yourself fixed I'll uh. Let you kidnap me again sometime? Just try to be gentle in the future."

She kind of shrugs to Perceptor. It's a bargaining chip?

[whirlybird_of_prey]

"You know what? Whatever. I did what you wanted. Alright? Over."

He throws up his claws in an angry sort of semi surrender, before he turns his back on them. He's leaving. On foot this time.

"You two have fun. I'm out." He pauses, looking over his shoulder at them. "Hey, Perceptor. If you decide to shoot me in the fraggin' back? While you're shooting your own side? Don't miss."

[percept]

"Whirl."

The gun goes away now, the moment over. He'll draw it again if necessary, but he doubts that it will be at this point.

Perceptor starts after Whirl, carefully stepping around Vandal.

"I'm sorry, alright? Please come with us to see a medic."

[vandalization]

"Seriously, you're fucking... bleeding."

Is that the right word? Bleeding? Leaking? Who knows how much they can bleed before they die. It's not a horrible wound, but still.

[whirlybird_of_prey]

"Yeah, we're all sorry. Whatever."

He shrugs.

"Thanks for the newsflash, liar." Yeah, he hasn't let go that you lied about the acid.

[percept]

"Whirl."

It's about as insistent as Perceptor gets, an attempt at firmness.

"At least let us escort you to the medbay."

[vandalization]

"Seriously, Christ."

Vandal mostly feels caught in the middle, as she does a lot of the time with these robots.

[whirlybird_of_prey]

"Seriously? You think I'm going anywhere with Shooty McLineface?"

Right. Nope.

"Both of you're crazier than I am." That is a deep, deep insult.
