//As it so happens, 'Rodimus Prime' isn't here, so the little jester is on a fool's errand. Perceptor, we will need to work on containment and treatment,// that's definitely a compromise there, because if this was back home... //facilities for someone so deranged. Bumblebee thinks he can track her down, once those are ready.//

// Understood, // Perceptor replies, wondering if said facilities were really Xaaron's first choice. Probably not. // Kup and Nightbeat, you would be better suited to designing the "containment" portion. I will contact First Aid to discuss "treatment", if that is acceptable. //

Emirate Xaaron would be really all for just killing the Junkion, to tell the truth. Even Autobots far more compassionate than he were in favour of killing Empties, who are pretty much harmless, and this lady is dangerous.
He just knows his audience.
//Go ahead and contact First Aid. Her oddities are not unknown to the Autobots at large, just the severity.//

//I was planning on installing a brig, anyway, but...// he trails off and curses. //We flat don't have the resources on-hand to keep a Junkion captive yet, Perceptor. They're harder to keep trapped than most normal Transformers.//

//And frankly, keeping her locked up means guarding her and providing for her needs without getting anything back out of it. It's a waste of time and resources.//

//Nightbeat, if we don't keep her contained, I'm sure the Decepticons will be thrilled to take in her and moreso the weapons that she designs. It isn't a waste of resources to keep a potential enemy from getting the chance to become one. Kup, if we really can't keep a Junkion captive, we do have some spare bodies.//
Lateral thinking, people.

// What leads you to make that determination, Kup? // Perceptor asks. He ignores Nightbeat's observation for now; he's afraid to ask what the detective would consider an appropriate alternative for imprisonment. Probably something which would require him to retrieve a large hammer and perform percussive maintenance upon Xaaron when the Emirate agreed with it.

//Well, Perceptor, first off, you need a medic that can tell their important bits from extra junk that gets left in there. And considering their important bits are junk, also, we don't really got any who're trained in that in the Autobots-proper. This is to make sure they don't got something extra they can build into something to escape with.
//Then you got to go through every assembly and sub-assembly again and figure out what's main, and what's redundancy, 'cos Junkions, they got a lot of internal redundancy. 'Cos if you don't do that, they'll just take out their redundant parts and use those to escape with.
//Then, once you've damn near emptied them out, you either got to stick them behind a forcefield that covers pretty much every surface, or you got to figure out and shut down most of the quick disconnects and compartmentalization and whatnot, so they don't just move themselves next to the bars or whatever and toss themselves out piece by piece. Sure, they might end up losing a hand or whatever else in the business, but once they're out, they're able to go find something to build themselves a new one.
//Oh, and when you're pulling pieces off of them, you got to make sure to grab most their outer armor, 'cos there's a chance they'll remove that and use it to pry open walls or whatever. This is important if you've got circuitry behind the walls, which you're probably going to have if you're using forcefields. Which we don't got right now, anyway.
//Wreck-Gar once sent me one of his so-called 'security experts' on some sort of cultural exchange program or whatever. Turned out to be a Junkion who'd spent all of her time watching cop shows and stuff instead of general TV, but I did learn a few things from her, like how it's leaking hard to keep one of them trapped when they don't want to stay there.
//The suggestion with the other body might actually work. There may be compatibility issues, though, and you still got to go through and strip out any part that ain't strictly needed for survival.//

//Mirage just reported that Cannonball got picked up by someone with an alt mode that matches someone he knows as 'Jetfire.' Also says Skyfire's voice over the radio sounds like this Jetfire, so it might've been Skyfire. Waiting on a confirmation of the description, and told him to go ahead and pick up this Rattrap guy.//

OOC: With the retrieval of Rattrap accomplished, the two 'shared' Autobot radio threads are being timeskipped to after the votes thread (the Partyline may go away now that we have a declared leader; that's Xaaron's choice).
