*Auspex PINpoints in, the Megatron/Oriana fusion, as well as the female Starscream's shell, in tow.

She hasn't had much practice with the teleportation devices, and finds herself in the main sanctuary, rather than a guest room, and Megatron's too heavy to move very far; she can only prop him up against the wall in one of the quiet niches scattered here and there around the room. Starscream's frame, though smaller, is no easier; Auspex does, at least, manage to tug her shell into the neighboring niche.

Deciding that's the best she can do, she hurries to retrieve an energon cube from her store, returning momentarily, to crouch beside Megatron. If she can coax him into something approaching a functional state, he may drink it. Otherwise, she'll have to find a fuel port, and poking around on an unfamiliar mech's persons is not something she's terribly fond of doing. This is assuming, of course, that he's merely low on energy, and not worse...*

*She sighs softly* Megatron? Oriana? I hope you have some reserves, somewhere...

Skywarp listens to Auspex’s mini-lecture to the hybrid, not quite sure what to make of it. He thinks he’d be amused if he weren’t so tired. “If you’ve learned it through experience, it’s foolish to do otherwise,” he corrects idly.

He responds to Auspex’s request with a nod – and a meaningful look at Hormah. Well, he has no intention of going near any part of Starscream in the foreseeable future… and why volunteer for the task when there’s a lower-ranking (half-Minicon) bot right there?

Hormah catches the look as she comes back in, and responds with a rude sound as she shoves past the Seeker to lay the broken shell on the berth. This done, she looks up at the ghost, who is no longer visible to Auspex and Skywarp, then back down at the shell, her irritation fading into concern. "She's after knowin' she's dead... so why t' slag's she lookin' like t'at, eh?"

[primus_seeress]

Hmm. *Auspex's response to Skywarp's observation is ambiguous*

*Auspex nods gratefully as Hormah brings the shell in, frowning a bit at her question* A free-spark's visible manifestation has a lot to do with their state of mind... she is far more battered than she appears on the outside. *she glances over to where she knows the spirit to be, not wishing to discuss her problems so openly amongst others, without permission from the subject in question*

“You’re right about that.” Skywarp gives a small, final stretch to be sure his servos are in working order. “If you’re going to try and piece that mind back together, I wish you luck.” He’s not going to say which kind. “I’m going back to my own reality before anything else tries to stop me,” he adds.

But before he PINs out, he stops, inclining his head towards Auspex briefly. “But… thanks for the assist.”

Yes, he did just choose to ignore Hormah again.

Hormah returns the favor as she looks to Auspex. "I's best be goin'. T'ere's work as needs doin', 'n Blackout t' see t' first. Ye sure ye'll be alright, b'y?"

[primus_seeress]

*she nods to Skywarp* Of course. You are sure you're all right? You've probably... experienced quite a bit on the way here. Just so you aren't feeling any ill effects. *she frowns slightly in concern*

*Auspex ignores her guests ignoring each other* I'm not sure that's the term of choice... but I'll live, yes. *she smiles wanly* Go on and see to Blackout; the pitfalls, from here on, are emotional ones.

"Heh." Skywarp gives a glance down at himself, then looks back up at Auspex. "I'm angry, but my body seems to be working fine." That's no guarantee: he half fears being haunted by the ghost's flashbacks next time he tries to recharge.

Needless to say, he doesn't mention that, just says "Until next time," and PINpoints out.

[random_xtras]

Hormah makes a razzing sound and radiates annoyance and suspicion, but then resumes her usual cheer as she steps forward to give her mentor a hug before PINpointing away herself.

And Auspex is left with the two halves of Starscream.

*Though he does not mention it, Auspex can sense his unease - she doesn't press the subject, however; let him have his pride, if he wishes it. She may attempt to follow up on him later, but right now, she has a distressed free-spark to attend to. She nods to the Decepticon flyer, before returning Hormah's cheerful hug, and watching her disappear*

Starscream? What do you remember? Do you know where you are now?
