Even Slugslinger quietly makes a disgusted face at the belching thing, but since he's sulking, he bites the tongue he doesn't have and says nothing. About that. But he can't let that goofy thumbs-up crack slide because no-one can be that corny.
"…'Energony goodness'?" he echoes, pumping as much scorn and disbelief into those two words as he can muster. His face is already a caricature of a perked-eyebrow expression, so he just stares at Waspinator.

When the good doctor does his stuff, he’ll find that the main issue affecting Waspinator is a total energy flow disruption, his limbs are getting zero, they’re basically running on reserve while his head and processor are suffering from a slowly increasing overload which has already taken out the main gyroscope outputs.
Something should be happening to control the energy output from the twin powercores but isn’t and very few of the other internal systems are fully functional. If it wasn’t for being technorganic, many of the systems would simply be scrap giving the readings.

Tarantulas looks at the scanner with distaste. He doesn't like what it's telling him. "Alright, looks like we have some rewiring to do to prevent a catastrophic overload. First thing's first . . ." he says ominously, producing his circular saw from subspace and beginning to slice through Waspinator's neck.
"This will probably hurt," he adds as an afterthought. "Try not to struggle too much."
Re-dismembering Waspinator with permission.

OOC: Skipping Slugslinger due to timeout
Waspinator had been decapitated by Tarantulas Frag Score: Fate – 1, Waspinator – 0
There have got to be politer ways to remove someone's head than with a circular saw. Less painful ones too, Waspinator screams in agony, the failing reserve power in his limbs the only thing that protects the much smaller predacon from otherwise being thrown across the room by a thrashing arm. Only when the head drops to the ground a second time does the screaming grind to a halt. With his point of view somewhat fixed beyond his ability to change, Waspinator glares at the part of the room he can see. “Wazzpinator will crush your spark Spiderbot!” At least he's coherent again without the power overload coursing his neural circuits.
And it was looking like such a nice day today too. On the bright, things couldn’t possibly get any worse. Jinx!

"Good going there," Slugslinger drawls at Tarantulas as he hops down from the console and ambles over to poor Waspinator's head. "All I did was talk. You took his head off. And you glitch at me about making him mad." He stoops to pick up the wayward bug-noggin, being mindful of where all the mouth-bits are just in case Waspinator's the biting sort. This probably ranks as "worse" as far as Waspinator is concerned.

"I'm acting as his physician, I'm allowed to make him mad if it's for his own good," Tarantulas replies smugly. "And if you really want to crush my spark, Waspinator, I can go ahead and reattach your head without repairing your power distribution systems. Then your cranial circuits can overheat until your optics melt. I just saved your life. You're welcome," he finishes, putting away his saw.
"We don't have the equipment in here to do extensive rewiring. We'll have to take him to Medical." The spider looks over at Slugslinger as the jetformer attempts to do a Hamlet and Horatio impression with Waspinator's head. "Given the situation, I don't think he presents too much of a security risk right now."

He rolled his optics in exasperation, “Fine! Tiny Spiderbot fix Wazzpinator, pleazz”. There, happy now? You made Waspinator ask for further assistance. It was getting very hard to remain Megacool ™ under his current situation.
He eyed Slugslinger, what else could he do, “Onwardz to medical twoface minion”, he tried to make his body move but reserve power was pretty much gone now. “Zigh, okay give Spiderbot head and drag body, pleazz. Slaggin Chickbot’z tranzwarp slag”.
OOC: okay, finish this up and move to a new Medical thread, I believe I had managed to garner the interest of Hook and Screwdriver, I will PM to check.

Slugslinger gives both Waspinator and Tarantulas a smug look of his own, a leer of sorts that tugs at the left half of his mouth and dims his optics. He strolls casually back to the operations side of the console, setting down Waspinator's head on the nearest flat portion of it as he seats himself.
"We?" he says. "No can do, spidey. I'm still on watch for another twenty minutes." He leans back in his seat, stretches his legs and crosses his ankles, then he interweaves his fingers behind his head and adds, "And I'm not getting yelled at for something that isn't my job." The bugs can go find themselves another pack mule.

Tarantulas gives Slugslinger a withering glare. "You do raise a valid point. I suppose we'll sit tight here until our shift is over, and then we'll transport Waspinator to the med-bay. You'll just have to be patient, Waspinator."
"Wait . . . which chickbot's transwarp slag?!"1
1. Given how few female Transformers there are, this is a reasonable question. Animated suffers from this less than other continuities, but Tarantulas doesn't know that.

There is enough reserve power in his limbs for one last thing, he made a two finger salute on every hand to the room in general, it effectively conveyed his current feelings to this whole slaggin situation.
If Waspinator had an eyebrow, he would have raised…his left one in curiosity, so instead an antenna twitched instead. He might have an optic ridge or something; the aesthetic decider will have to get back to you on that one. “hmm Spider bot chick, black, purple, gold, maybe a little shorter than Wazzpinator”. The last bit he wasn’t exactly sure but he remembers standing over Sentinel Chin. Oh and she was kinda attractive in the sort of way that you knew was not going to end well for you but you can’t help yourself.

"Sure, sure," Slugslinger answers Tarantulas with all sincerity and a cheery smile. "I just don't feel like getting chewed out for abandoning my post or something. I mean, this guy obviously ain't dying." He sort of flicks one hand at the head on the console and shrugs at the same time in a very what can you do? fashion. He doesn't so much as twitch a panel out of place otherwise, settling in to watch the crazy spider chat with the crazy wasp.

"Blackarachnia?!" Tarantulas exclaims. He catches himself and calms down quickly however. "How . . . interesting." And then he calls her on the radio.
OOC: Wrap or timeskip and move to Medical?

OOC: All of the above. This thread is a Wrap. 20 min time skip. Continued in Disect-a-con
