Hail the Conquering Heroes

Things can happen without Stacy knowing, that much is apparent now. The damage to her sensors is significant. But the fighting clued her in.

After it's all over, after those captured have been rescued, after the injured have been tended to, only the nest is left, and Stacy takes care of it.

||Infestation of Cluster 42, Level 4, Sector 7, Sublevel 12, Zone 37 has been detected. Triggering internal defenses. Decontamination commencing.||

There is a pause.

||Decontamination complete.||

Simple as that, once she knows the problem was there. Her internal sensors are damaged, especially in the city, and so are some of the systems monitoring them. You have to know what's broken to know to fix it.

Such a simple thing and it only took one man dying to make it happen. (His body is gone, by the way, ripped to shreds and eaten. There's not even a spot of blood on the floor. That's the bugs' doing. The bugs' bodies are gone too--that's Stacy's doing).

||Any injured personnel that still have not received medical attention, report to the nearest lift, and you will be transported to the MedBay. Any uninjured personnel, report to the Living Area, to the restroom facilities to undergo decontamination of xenobiological material. Then report to the Obs Deck to meet your new crew-mates.||

Said crew-mates--and the Doctor, who'd skipped out and miraculously ducked and weaved his way to the lift when he'd realized the Master was there--are there and waiting, and just a tad confused.

Huh. Well. There was no arguing on that point. "It surprises many humans, also. I am somewhat unique." Kurt was going to do his best to be sound somewhat proud of the fact. "I am a mutant. I suppose there are many small differences on a genetic level, but I am human." He'd practicaly puffed his chest out in the attempt to look almost boastful.

"Is this your first time meeting humans? This place isn't exactly, uh, a good place to get a fair view of what we're like.."

"Nope, not all. Was on Earth for somewhere around a solar cycle, and one of my closest friends is human."

"So you are an alien robot." Kurt spoke, thoughtfully, almost to himself. Why not, really? He'd already met an alien dinosaur.

"That is so cool." Alright. No point in alarming the poor guy with hyperexcited squealing. Nope. Would not lose his dignity..

"Not just cool. Cool personified." Congrats Kurt, you've just served to fuel Bee's already huge ego.

Maybe it was a good thing Bumblebee wasn't his regular size. Kurt probably wouldn't have been able to resist the urge to start climbing all over him. This whole thing blew the 'awesome' meter right off the charts.

"How did a cool guy like you end up on Earth? Unless it is Earth from the future.. uhm, for me." Confusing, wasn't it?

"Our ship, kind of, um, crashed somewhere near Detroit when we got attacked by this slaghead called Megatron. Really big, really evil, and really ugly leader of the Decepticons."

"Hm. I have never been there.. Though I have seen much of America by now." There he probably would have begged to go upon hearing of giant robots from space falling into the city. "That has to be.. different." Kurt was finally settling back on his little squishy cushion, stretching long toes. It had been a busy day, after all.

"Why are the main bad guys always big and ugly?" Kurt was laughing again, at least. "Should we just not suspect anyone over average height, by now?"

"I dunno. Hey Starscream! Why are all of you Decepticons big and ugly?" He called out to longchinned Cybertronian, not really expecting an answer.

Kurt craned his neck around, looking for whoever the yellow Autobot was yelling for. Starscream was hard to miss.

"So he is one of these Decepticans?" Erm. Almost got it, Kurt. Almost. "Does not look that big to me.."

It was probably hard to be a villain trapped on a ship with a bunch of heroes, especially when your heroes acted like bored kids with ADD.

"The ship kinda shrunk us or somethin'. I'm usually like 15 feet tall."

"I'd don't know," Starscream shoots back in response to the call. "Why are all Autobots painfully short and idiotic?"

[identity profile] blue-fuzzy-dude.livejournal.com 2008-11-21 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)
"Shrunk? Wow." Kurt eyed the bright yellow bot, trying to imagine him at real size. "I wish I had that excuse." Alright, so he was a bit short. It wasn't his fault. His legs sort of bent funny, after all.

Then he winced to himself on hearing the shout from across the room; the Decepticon had a voice like nails on a chalkboard. Yet..

"I am disappointed. I am not sure what I expected intergalactic evil to say, but that was not it."

"Yeah, well, we're all pretty sure a few of Starscream's processors are fried."

[identity profile] blue-fuzzy-dude.livejournal.com 2008-11-24 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"So he is crazy evil, rather than demented-complicated-plotting evil?" Kurt's eyebrow went up, inquisitively. "Huh. I think he's the first 'bad guy' I've seen one board. At least, one that is obvious.." Not that he would like to start jumping at shadows, but there were plenty of strangers here.

[identity profile] stingslikeali.livejournal.com 2008-11-28 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
"Nah, he's the demented-complicated-plotting evil. He just really sucks at it."

"I suppose it takes all kinds." It was confusing, after a fashion; robots were built, so why build one that wasn't good at.. whatever job they were supposed to take up? Then again, Bumblebee was very much a person, so obviously they might have.. contradictions in personality.

"Wonder what Stacy's 'great purpose' thing means for a guy like that.."

"Hopefully getting sucked out of an airlock."
