OOC (again gah)
((Since Eject is in the main medbay with Pharma, I’m going to have him jump into that thread. Should he have touched anything that would make him a carrier? He hasn’t shifted to alt yet))

((Back! I’ll be jumping in in a moment, I see we’re working out some kind of posting… thingie right now.
I have a question: when one contracts the red rust plague as a carrier, and shifts to alt mode, if they REMAIN in alt mode, do they start to rust, or does it wait until they change back?

He will be very helpful to Pharma and do what he is told. The only reason that Eject would go into alt mode would be to gain better access of the security/comm systems and coordinate those scattered throughout the facility. He probably won’t do this on his own, but if...

It was shocking to be sure, the reality of the situation staring them in the face. It was one of those fight or flight moments. And part of him really wanted to run. But something in Eject’s voice shook him out of it. And looking at the damage to Pharma’s frame triggered that burning need to know, to do something.

Pharma exvents irritibly and folds his arm behind his back as he glares at Turmoil, his other hand still supporting the portable nucleon feed. “Turmoil. To what do I owe the… pleasure, of your company?”

That is interesting information. Eject opens his mouth to speak, but a sudden drop in elevation renders him momentarily speechless and he grips the seat again, waiting for his tanks to stop churning. “Woo,” he responds with a vent, “That was a heck of a drop, pal.”

“Whoa.” Swerve breathed the word as he watched Turmoil walk away, “WHOA.” Half his processor reeled in shock while the other half chewed on Turmoil’s comment and Eject’s introduction. Coming to his senses again fully, he trotted after Eject, unwilling to be left standing alone in the snow on a Decepticon controlled world.

Swerve heaves three long vented breathes and collects himself. Given no one’s attacked him in that time, panic becomes more of an option held in reserve than a necessity.

Turmoil stops dead in his tracks on feeling something bounce off his head. But before he can even look to see what it was, something substantially larger and heavier bounces off his head, and he grunts in annoyed surprise.

Eject tilts his head, his mouth twisted thoughtfully to one side. He supposes that Tarantulas’s early life explains a lot about why he is the way he is… but he also supposes that a healthy amount of it has to do with his spark’s natural predisposition. “Well, I’m glad you’re here now,” he concludes with a grin. “You’re one of the most interestin’ friends...
