[Voice/video] Interrupting your daily Glyphless shenanigans....
[The transmission starts with silence, then a muffled humming and finally a male voice speaks. It's quite the attractive voice, but it sounds like he’s trying to control his annoyance and failing.]
There's a moment in your life when you say to yourself ‘things can't possibly get better’…[By his tone of voice, it’s clear that he's being sarcastic.] …and then the universe proves you wrong. A new Cybertron, uh hum… I’ve heard that before. Really charming.
[>Suddenly, video! Enjoy the view of a cherry red robot with no visible faction symbol on him, sneering at the camera.]
I want to know who thought it would be a good idea to mess with my chassis and give me that horrid tattoo, of all things. [Tattoo, glyph, practically the same thing. Knock out didn’t really pay much attention to the acolyte, he had other things to focus on than a new planet. Like his paintjob.]
We should have a talk. [There’s a clear promise of pain in that last sentence as he waves a hand with very large, very pointy, claws. ]

[Rung motions to his own arm where his glyph is visible.]
It's something that has happened to al--
[Wait, no.]
Almost..all of us.
[Video]
[Knock Out gives the other bot a good look. You don't look like a Decepticon.]
Almost?
[Video]
[Rung doesn't even know what to say to that. He's never been all too worried about clashing.]
Ah..yes. There has been a bit of an issue going on as of late...some individuals arrived without glyph tattoos...
[Video]
I don't even know how exactly I got here, I'm quite sure I was in the medbay a few minutes ago.
[Video]
It is a means of designating which of the First Forged you have been aligned with. You woke up in a temple, did you not? An acolyte should have been there to explain things, that seems to be how it goes.
[Video]
unless he's being vengefuland it's a harmless smirk.That acolyte might have mentioned a Solus, yes. I'm starting to believe that maybe I got overcharged without noticing and this is just a dream. Nothing really makes sense.
Do you have a name, oh hallucination of mine?
[Video]
This place is a bit of an oddity. [The therapist smiles a bit.] But it's not a dream, I can tell you that much.
Ah, yes, sorry. I'm Rung, resident therapist. You are?
[Video]
I'm starting to notice that. I can't say I've met many bots like you, Rung, and specially not therapists.
The name's Knock Out. It's nice to meet a fellow medic even if I work in a field a bit more physical . [that last word is said with certain level of amusement.]
[Video]
Bots like me?
[He's not sure what to make of that.]
It's a pleasure to meet you as well. And, ah, yes, your area of expertise is quite different than mine..though I'm not sure if I would say that mine isn't physical at times.
[Video]
Bots liek you, correct.
[Knock Out is not going to explain himself.]
At times? How come? Did a patient punch you because he didn't like your diganose?
[Video]
[Rung shifts a bit, looking a touch uncomfortable.]
Just had a bad incident is all. Comes with being a doctor of any sort. I'm sure you understand.
[Video]
I do understand. [Incidents are common occurrence in the Nemesis, specially around Megatron.] But it's better not to dwell in the past, isn't it?
[Video]
[He's absently wringing his hands a bit, rubbing one of his thumbs specifically before he catches himself and stops, forcing himself to relax.]
Sorry just...bad memories before I came here, unfortunately.
[Video]
I'm sorry to hear that.
[Video]
Ah--n-no. I'm fine, really. Though, thank you for the offer.
[He also just avoids burdening others like crazy.]
[Video]
If you insist. Just keep it in mind. [Have another oh-so friendly- grin.]
What else could you tell me abut this place and those without a glyph?
[Video]
I will.
Well..I can tell you that this place is a surprising mix of organic and non-organic, as there are humans present here, able to survive without any mechanical aids to allow them to breath. Things seem to be thriving, for the most part. There...seems to be a few hiccups here and there..
[His expression darkens, just a bit.]
Those without a glyph...from what the Firstforged have said..they're going to go crazy.
[Video]
[Knock Out stares at his glyph, suddenly glad that he has it.]Who decides who gets the glyphs?
[Video]
[Because even he had been confused by it all but now? Now..he was just starting to accept that this was his life now.]
From..what I understand, even the Firstforged aren't completely sure.
[Video]
[Knock Out is still very happy living in denial.]
That's very reassuring.
