too busy working out to
WHO: Kagerou & OPEN
WHERE: ALL AROUND HAVEN || Police Station || Trion's Temple
WHEN: From TFP!Ratchet's attack -- to now!
WHAT: After his outburst on the Network, Kagerou is rather desperate to prove himself as a capable police officer, hunting nonstop for a fugitive he probably has no hope of locating. It goes about as well as you can expect.
WARNINGS: None now.
Note: If you could put the date and location in the subject, that would be awesome!
[He's probably become a familiar sight around the Haven skies of late. A shadow ghosting across the stars, or lurking in the darker places behind buildings. Scans are running constantly. No part of the ground goes unseen. Guilt is driving him, mostly. He wants to make things right. Wants to make amends.]
[Make it up to the bot he thinks he's failed.]
[But there are some areas he won't visit. Some places etched in his mind as too terrible to return to. He won't be seen near Liege's temple. Nor Megatronus'. Everywhere else, he is a near-constant presence. Look up. You might see him!]
~
[Even so, he can't be everywhere. Every so often, he'll return to the police station. Make reports, they said. Check in, they said. And so, in between sweeps of the Haven, he'll stop at the station. Even if no one is inside, or present, he'll offer up his report via datapad, leaving it on a desk.]
[Nothing, it usually says. Nothing unusual reported.]
[And he treats every report of that nature, like a failure. His shoulders slump a little more, and he leaves the station looking more dejected, though his expression remains as closed and neutral as possible. If someone is present in the station, he'll stop to speak with them, of course. But otherwise, he's in and out in a matter of minutes.]
~
[Rarer still, he returns to Trion's temple. To the room he and Kay and now... now another... are sharing. It's usually late when he does drag himself back. He's always low on fuel, low on rest. He'll all but stumble through the temple, nodding to passersby, or whoever happens to be on his way.]
[He will return to the room for only as long as it takes for him to refuel. To make certain Kay is all right. To make certain nothing terrible has happened.]
[And then he's gone again. Weary, frustrated, and wracked with too much guilt. But pushing onward all the same.]

Fixing things? What's broken?
no subject
[Deep breaths, Kagerou. Admitting this to Rewind is more difficult than he thought, since... he really respects the Autobot.]
I said some things. Things that made others think I'm not fit to be on the Police Force... that... I've let them down.
I'm trying to fix that.
no subject
I'm sure they understand, Kagerou. Your uh...A.I.'s always been in the right place.
It's not like you're malicious or anything...heck, they're probably over it by now.
no subject
They just made it sound as if I'd been... I don't know the words for it. That I failed, because I hadn't been tracking that crazed medic.
I'm fixing that now.
no subject
Because you can be the worst critic of yourself. No one expected you to be doing that, Kagerou...at least not from what I've seen.
no subject
It felt like it was implied...
[And he sort of attracted SG!Ratchet to the BP units. Which makes it worse.]
no subject
[He nods his head, as if asking the ninja to follow him as he walks.]
Sometimes things happen, and they're not always for the best. And sometimes the people you know make mistakes. But that's just what they are--mistakes.
[His head tilts up.]
You didn't mean to cause trouble, right?
no subject
Mistakes...
[Was it a mistake? Just a simple mistake? Getting that thing's attention...? He's lost in that thought for a minute, before hearing the question.]
No, I didn't. I wouldn't do anything to hurt them intentionally.
[... and he may have still been lost in it, while answering.]
no subject
[He looks back as he walks, both to catch Kagerou's eye and make sure Ambus was following him.]
You did what you thought was right.
no subject
[But he won't argue it more than that. He knows Rewind has a point. His head lowers a little, avoiding Rewind's look for a moment.]
... I just wanted to protect them. That's all I've ever wanted.
no subject
[That gets an annoyed tone out of Rewind. Apparently, the obvious isn't pinging the rest of the planet.]
I'm going to make a post. Just you wait. I'll set everyone straight.
no subject
[But he suddenly looks alarmed at the mention of a post.]
What -- no! You don't have to do that!
