[Have a worried Wing.]

I am, apparently, immune to this disease that is attacking so many of you. [Mixed blessing?]

I'd like to offer my services to move supplies from group to group. Is there--have we discovered a way to decontaminate things? I'd hate to carry the disease, though I'd like to be able to go to the ship.

Also, can--has anyone thought of a memorial service for those we have lost? I think it might help us grieve and honor our dead. [He looks near tears at this--yes, a robot--because of Chime.]

And has anyone seen Drift?

I'm... sorry. Is there anything I can do? I mean. To help? To make you feel better?

Ah- I'm en route, then.

[Video]

[knightoflight]

No. No, Drift. I'll be fine. Just seeing you again helps.

[He couldn't have stood losing two. Not Drift.]

I'll be here. Drift? Thank you.

[Video] --> [Action?]

[weapabilities]

Well... good.

[ He arrives a while later, transforming. He looks like he's probably been a bit lost in the forest for a while because he's muddy and covered in leaves. He marches right up to Wing anyways. ]

[Action?]

[knightoflight]

[Despite himself, Wing can't suppress a laugh bursting from his vocalizer at Drift's appearance.]

Drift! What have you gotten up to? Or into?

[It doesn't matter: he pulls Drift into a hug regardless.]

[Action?]

[weapabilities]

[ Oh if he could blush. He'll settle to look sulky and demoralized. ]

Like I said I...

I got a little turned around and fell into a- a bog sort of place. Wing, I have mud in places mud should not be.

[ He can't be too upset because Wing is hugging him anyway and he returns the tight embrace. }

I'm glad you're ok.

[Action]

[knightoflight]

[Sulky is still reading as 'adorable' to Wing.]

We'll clean you up later. [He offers a bit of a wink at the 'we'. He would like to be very involved with it. ] I'm just glad you're all right.

Have you fueled recently? [Wing is suddenly hungry, as though seeing Drift again flipped a switch and everything was almost normal again.]

[Action]

[weapabilities]

[ You ordered one stupid awkward chuckle? Along the lines of 'duhuuhuhuhuh'? Right when he sorta catches that 'we'. ]

U-hmm... no. Not recently, but I'm fine. I'm glad you're all right, too. If you want to take a break to fuel I wouldn't mind, though.

[ He teeters awkwardly from one foot to the other. ]

[Action]

[knightoflight]

[He did order that. And he nuzzles into it.]

I would. It might help.

Before or after we clean you up, though? [A little wink.]

[Action]

[weapabilities]

[ Ahfdfdghfsd winking. You fluster him so. ]

Ahaha w-well you look a little rough, so you should probably fuel first.

[ He puts on a confident smile. ]

I can wait for a bath, no problem there.

[Action]

[knightoflight]

Not 'me'. Us. Please. And you can tell me what you've been up to.

[The smile steadies Wing.]

We'll do it later. Because I can tell it's going to take a lot of...energy.

[Action]

[weapabilities]

Okay, alright. I just- okay.

[ Wow he really can't say no to you. He's too busy being bashful. ]

Energy? I mean I'm pretty cooperati-

[ Oh. Wow did. Did that just happen? He looks really dumfounded in a happy way. ]

[Action]

[knightoflight]

We need to see what we can do about this plague that is affecting the others. We appear--thankfully--immune.

[He can't help but glow at Drift's reaction. He misses his whole city, but Drift is making up for that.]

[He winks. ] I'm sure you are. I just want to be...thorough.

[Action]

[weapabilities]

Yeah, I've been trying to help where I can but... ah. It's. I'm no doctor.

[ Another very clueless sound. ]

Y-yes of course. I wouldn't doubt you would be.

[ Now wink back. Wink damn it. ]

Wink.

[ NO, DAMN IT. ]

[Action]

[knightoflight]

Neither am I. [He gives a heavy sigh. ] It's frustrating not to be able to help.

[He gives a startled blink at Drift's reaction and then bursts out laughing, pulling the other mech into a hug. He'd missed this so much. He'd missed any levity so much.]

[Action]

[weapabilities]

We just have to do what we can.

Uhu- [ ACK! A little bewildered and embarrassed at his mistake, but at least he's getting a hug so he can't complain too much. ]

[Action]

[knightoflight]

[Wing can't resist a little peck on Drift's helm. ] Wisdom, indeed, Drift.

Now, let's get some fuel.

[Action]

[weapabilities]

[ Well that makes him feel oddly nostalgic. He basks in that feeling a moment before nodding. ]

Yes, let's return home for a little while.
