Day 43: Sun Room

Why does this place always have to spoil my fun? was the first thing HK thought when he realized he was back in his cell in the Institute. Oh well. This meant his nurse would be coming soon to lead him off to whatever boring place he was supposed to go to now.

The meatbag arrived a few moments later, asking him in an overly cheerful tone if he slept well. HK responded with and equally cheerful "Statement: I was having the most wonderful dream. A dream of killing all humans." He managed to make a facial expression for best effect: A happy, terrifying grin. "And I think you were in it," he finished with an especially gleeful note.

The nurse nearly dragged him all the way down to the Sun Room. Success! He took a seat in one of the chairs, feeling smug.

[Free!]

Oh.

Eyebrows raised just a touch, Depth Charge nearly caught Scourge's eye before remembering himself and training his attention on Lugnut again. Slag. He'd seen the guy all but mauled into stasis lock by giant birds while keeping his stone-face, but now? Now he was wringing his hands and glancing around anxiously like a lost sparkling.

"Sorry. I haven't seen him around," he grunted eventually, feeling his stare forced away from Lugnut's face and to the space above his shoulder. It was more than a little disconcerting, and not just because of the change: did he actually feel sorry for him?

"It doesn't matter. He's probably lazing around in his berth," Lugnut growled, with forced annoyance. His wingmate was fine. He just... hadn't shown up yet.

Lugnut took another glance around to make sure he was right about Blitzwing bot being there.

When Lugnut looked away, Scourge shot Depth Charge a shrug and a sad shake of his head. He doubted the Maxibot bought the story anyway.

"... yeah. Probably." Depth Charge shot Scourge a helpless look back, then quickly turned to stare up at the ceiling before Lugnut noticed. The last thing the 'con would want was, appropriately, the last thing he wanted to give him: pity.

Hopefully, Blitzwing would be back in action soon. That way he could stop caring as quickly as possible.
