Dinner Time
Who: Skids and YOU!
What: Sparkeater Skids is roaming the Haven, looking for delicious robots whose souls he can eat.
Where: EVERYWHERE MWAHAHAHAHAH.
When: For a few days before and after this post.
Notes:
Skids is a Sparkeater, and as such is ravenous for the life energy that powers Cybertronians. Most robots that aren't Cybertronian are safe, but if you think your robot has anything close to a spark I'm more than willing to fudge it and have him try to give it a bite.
How does this work?
In canon, the humanoid sparkeater seems to have some method of coaxing a transformer's processor out of their head, which effectively locks them up and releases their spark, so to speak. He then eats it. However, there are other sparkeating turbofoxes which don't have so complicated a ritual and seem to be capable of just getting a spark chamber open and giving it a nom. I'm cool with whatever, so if you'd like your character to go through some spark-chewing trauma but survive intact, just note that when you post!
Skids is still Skids, just species swapped. Therefore, it still looks like him but with a lot more rust, randomly missing panels, and tentacles. Glorious, H.R. Giger tentacles. He's still himself in there, so if you're organic it will be possible to talk to him and even reason with him. If you've got a spark, though, his hunger will overpower his reason and he'll go after it. However, unless you note that you want your spark chewed (or eaten! I'm game for some good old death) then I'll let your character find a way to escape unscathed, possibly via comedic pratfall.
Questions? Just ask on plurk or send me a PM~

Everything had been hazy, since his race with Blurr. He'd been out setting up some new courses for Shepard to try her driving on and had seen the blue car zipping by. It had sparked an idea in his head.
Somehow, that idea had sparked something else.
His casual desire to chase after the racecar had turned into an intense desire to chase after the racecar, and he'd found new speed welling from within. He'd been able to keep up.
He'd been able to catch up.
He'd been ready to do so much more.
Blurr had been saved from his intense hunger, however, and when Skids tried to think how that had happened his mind became fuzzy. One moment there had been Blurr, and the next moment there wasn't. When there was no more Blurr, his need had shifted, and he'd...smelled?...something else. Something new.
Starving, he'd chased after it, only to be thwarted again. And again. And again.
Everything, now, was chasing, seeking some indefinable satiation that could quell the hunger driving him on. He'd contacted friends. He'd wanted to see them.
He'd wanted to rip them open and feast on their insides. That was simple.
It was everything else that was complex.

The knight was hesitant; no longer because of the form before her, but because she knew not what to do in such a delicate situation. The hunger was too much. Surely he was talking about what caused him to attack Blurr..
Skids was dangerous, she understood, but many would consider simply giving him to the Police Force as "helping" him and she was unsure this was the right decision in this case.
With how the Police Force was lately, Saber was unsure if that was ever quite the "correct" choice.
Skids was struggling, the knight could tell, but perhaps he had an actual idea of what helping him would be at the moment.

Two of his tentacles wrapped around him, tightly, and a single bead of some liquid substance trailed from his mouth. He was in terrible shape, and he could feel it, and every screaming sensation told him that eating would help.
"Dead come back, here...don't they?"
If he could just get one, maybe he could think straight again.

"I won't kill someone to receive their spark for you. And I don't think you should kill someone, either. You are aware the negatives outweigh the positives?"
Skids knew, hopefully, Saber was not near that type of person. And the knight was sure that he was not, normally. Still, it was best to.. voice her thoughts carefully. Skids was unstable, and she had no.. desire to fight him at the moment.
