re_alignment | [Video] Track 08 : Backdated to the Badlands search party return (2-ish days ago?)

[Miko looks a little bit worn out, but not that much worse for the wear, from the trip, and she seems to be proud of something at least.]

Hey, I'm back. I even brought something neat back with me, but it may have to be tested... to find out what it is.

[Locked to Team Prime]
Hey... um... I was going to send you guys a message to let you know I decided to go with Wing, and Drift and some of the others, but... when I was going to I couldn't get any reception. I'm sorry for not at least leaving a note. I made sure to stay out of the way of anything dangerous as much as possible...

[She does look genuinely sorry, the pride from before having drained away to show her looking very humbled.]

It was... harder to go alone than I thought it was going to be too... so I won't be doing that again.

[Locked to Nexus Prime]
So... I found this jar of stuff... well found is not quite the right way to put it... I... took it off one of the things that attacked us, while the others distracted them. I thought maybe either you or one of the others might want to figure out what the stuff is. I will see if I can put some in a container for you, if you want.

[As she talks she shows the jar of stuff she had gotten, holding it close, but carefully, not yet opened nor tested on anything.]

You followed them to the Badlands?!

[Okay, he might be just a little pissed.]

Where the frag are you now? [Because he's coming to get you.]

I didn't follow... I went with them... I made sure to stay in the group where I was safest. When I realized I couldn't let you know where I was... it was too far away to head back on my own, not without risking being out there alone.

[She really had considered returning, at least for a brief moment.]

Um... on my way to Solus's medbay, McCoy told me to go there "now". [She doesn't sound like she is resistant to anyone's upset, and is at least taking responsibility for having messed up now.]

Goin' with them ain't much better! You do this on top of Cee, and Cliff, and Jack and Raf disappearin'. I can't get a hold of ya or find ya fer days! I was startin' ta think you'd disappeared on me too!

[There's a slight growl to his voice and engine.]

I'm comin' ta gettcha and makin' sure ya go.

I wanted to find out if there was a way to get them... [She reacts a little defensively but then slumps a bit.] And I didn't mean to do that... I wanted to let you know...

[She simply nods, right now isn't a smart time to fight, and it wouldn't do her any good. Maybe once Bulkhead had a little time he would calm down.]

Ya got no idea how much I've wanted to do that. To storm in there and drag them back out. The only reason I've held off is cause of you and Jackie

[His expression turns a bit sad, eyes closing. It hurts. Miko's one of the few constants he's got left from home, and one of the only ones left. He knows she's done it before, but it was always following him, or somebody he knew he could trust, or even knew.]

I don't wanna lose the only two I got left from the team here, and most people that go in never come back out.
