"It'd be worth making another attempt to infiltrate the building," Tarantulas interjects. "There's almost certain to be some technology in there worth taking. If nothing else, the power requirements to manipulate space-time means they're likely hiding something we can convert into energon."

"I did not experience the time anomaly. I was busy keeping a second Autobot busy that had come to assist Blurr - a red and white racer."
He looks over at Tarantulas. "Perhaps locate their supplier instead, if they have one - go straight to the source."

Looking over at Fleetwind, Misfire shakes his head, "Not your fault Fleetwind. Things got kinda crazy. One person can't watch everything."
He shifts a bit in his seat, but says nothing else. He really has nothing else to add to the report. Plus, Shockwave's player was involved in the thread. >_>

"Time manipulation is a tricky thing. I agree that looking further into this would be prudent. Use whatever resources you need," Shockwave says to Scourge, giving his second carte blanche to do as he wills.
"A red and white Autobot racer, you say?" he asks Oil Slick. Shockwave taps a few buttons on his datapad and an image of Override flashes onto one of the wall screens.
"This one, by chance?"
Shockwave notes the way Misfire speaks to Fleetwind and files it away for later. Such tidbits make for excellent manipulation fodder later.

Scourge promptly does a bit of delegation, "Tarantulas, get a work-up of an infiltration plan together. You were there. We'll talk again later when you're done."
He has nothing to say with regards to Override; he didn't really see her. Scourge turns to Oil Slick and nods, prodding Oil Slick to explain with whom he tangled.

Fleetwind glances towards Misfire. He manages to keep the surprise from his expression as Misfire attempts to comfort, but if no one else is going to correct Misfire, the Seeker certainly won't. Instead, he just gives a faint nod of his head, allowing a trickle of gratitude to make it into his expression. The gratitude for what amounts to a deflection of blame is genuine, though the display is intentional. If there is another among the 'Cons willing to stick up for Fleetwind, the yellow Seeker feels he would do well to encourage it.
He looks at the image of Override. As it so happens, he was in a position to spot the robot. "That would be him, yes."
He was not in a position to hear her voice.
"I suppose I should mention the drone that was observing with me for part of the time. I mentioned it on the radio when it happened. It appeared to belong to... whomever had hired Blurr. Given the building that was one of the trip's end points, I'd say Primatech."

Scourge wants an infiltration plan? That's not even Tarantulas's division! It's a complete waste of his genius. All his death machines are going to languish.
"Yes sir," he says, taking care not allow any petulance into his voice.
On the other hand, if he's in charge of the mission, he's in a good position to take first pick of whatever they find.

Oil Slick nods as Shockwave pulls the image up. "Yes, that would be...her, I believe. I believe the voice that came from the vehicle was female." He folds his arms, thinking back. "I was having trouble keeping up with her - she's an excellent driver - seemed to also be able to transform remarkably quickly. And judging by the speed she took off at eventually, it would seem she was toying with me more than I was distracting her."
He shakes his head. "If only I could have gotten in front of her, if just for a moment...!"

OOC: this post covers both Misfire and Shockwave
Misfire gives Fleetwind and almost imperceptible nod in return. Misfire considers the yellow seeker a friend, and Misfire has some very specific ideas about how friends should be treated. Perhaps it isn't the safest thing to be open about around command, but oh well.
"I do believe this one's gender designation is female, yes. We have fought before."
More accurately, Override used Shockwave as an on-ramp. But why go into details?
He looks from one to the other, gaze finally settling on Scourge. "Is there anything else I should know of this endeavor?"
I think we've accomplished what was needed? Unless anyone else has more to add?

Tarantulas needs to stop acting competent if he wants people to stop handing him assignments.
Scourge suggests to Oil Slick, "Maybe you need weapons that are faster than you are. Chemical warheads, instead of relying on diffusion and wind."
Can't get in front of Override? Shoot her in the back.
Scourge shrugs. "I think that's all, sir."
OOC: All I can remember of it, anyway. So wrap?

Fleetwind remains quiet, having little else to add, though he does return Misfire's nod with another faint smile.
OOC: I'm good with a wrap. If we aren't wrapping, I'm skippable. Engage Generic Background Seeker Mode!

Tarantulas nods and looks at Shockwave, tapping a claw on the arm of his chair.
OOC: Also good with a wrap.

Oil Slick raises a hand to make a point. "There is one other thing, Lord Shockwave - Not related to this, but I have discovered an... interesting quirk about the Perceptor of this reality and how protective he is of his comrades."

"Do enlighten me Oil Slick," Shockwave says in response, "Everyone else is dismissed. Scourge, we will talk later."
OOC: everyone else can be considered to have left, unless you want to pose your character leaving.

Oil Slick starts pacing, and briefly glosses over what he did to Sentinel Prime to assist Blackarachnia - essentially saying that he experimented with all sorts of compounds on the Autobot.
"Then, that Autobot had his trial earlier - and afterward, once he escaped the trap, the Autobots called in their Perceptor to check up on him. Now, the interesting part is that the Perceptor in my reality deleted his emotional programming to make room for more information." Oil Slick grins, almost a leer. "If he was as emotional as this one, I'd suspect it was to keep him from getting too invested in projects. This Perceptor shook my hand after I introduced myself as my doctor alias."
Oil Slick chuckles. "He was so very, very hostile once he had ahold of me - spouting all manner of petty insults toward myself, my skills, and my work. It would appear that my work touched a nerve. However...that wasn't all of it. A few hours ago, I found my motor functions locked up - it appears that Perceptor used the handshake to plant a rather nasty virus on me. Thankfully, Needlenose was able to assist me with removing it."
"In short, Lord Shockwave, if pushed enough, he will push back with gusto."
