The return of the daring duo...via GHoP.

*As Skyfire approaches the Ark for a landing, Finch bails out the back again in falcon mode and flies in alongside the mech, transforming just before touching down. Breathing a sigh of relief to be home, she glances at her partner.* Thanks for the lift, Skyfire... I mighta been toast out there if you hadn't been there to bail my tail feathers

* Delphia, upon hearing the arrival of Finch, sits up and peers over.

Oh... so you're Finch. *smiles* I'm Delphia... one of the new arrivals. Red Alert paired me up with you while you were away. I know this is kind of an awkward introduction, but the boys didn't bother to include me in their conversation, anyway...

*Ratchet and Rhinox glance at each other...half a 'klick before the CMO starts to bristle. Literally.*

[Scomm:Rhinox] Why didn't you TELL me not everyone in here was out cold?!

[Rhinox:Scomm:Ratchet] She went offline while I was working on her, earlier!

[Scomm:Rhinox] Well, she obviously didn't STAY offline! How much do you think she heard?!

[Rhinox:Scomm:Ratchet] You're asking me? I'm not psychic.

[Scomm:Rhinox] Oh no, Mr. "I-can-separate-my-core-consciousness"!?

[Rhinox:Scomm:Ratchet] That only happened ONCE. And because I had a -window of opportunity- for it. And why don't you quite glitching at me over a secure line and just ASK her, then TELL her to keep it quiet? As it is, we're standing here glaring at one another. It wouldn't take a rocket scientist to figure out we're aruging at one another over a line.

[Scomm:Rhinox] ....D'OH!

[fowl_play]

*Finch stares at Delphia a moment, then glances over as Ratchet and Rhinox get into it with each other....*

Um, why do I feel like I just stepped in something I shouldn't have. ... ... No offense, Delphia. ...Ratchet, you're baring fangs.

Because I'm ANGRY! PRIMUS! *Grabbing Rhinox, Ratchet drags the scientist off to his office.*

[Rhinox] Sorry about this!

*Door slams shut.*

[chaingun_zen]

*Meanwhile, in the CMO office......Rhinox pauses in taking down a few notes and looks across at Ratchet, who is bent over his work. The pair have long since worked things out and are trying to compile their lists.*

...so... That Delphia's pretty easy on the optics, huh?

*He barely ducks a stylus that suddenly finds itself with the strange ability to fly at high speeds.*

[l33tmedic]

*Grabs another stylus from the desktop.* ....I won't miss next time.

[chaingun_zen]

...so if you put my optic out and Delphia asks what happened, what am I going to tell her?

*Holds up his datapad like a shield as Ratchet growls.*

...and now you have two questions to answer.

[l33tmedic]

*Grumbles, trying to get back to work.* First off... Yes. She's pretty. I'm busy. Not blind.

Second... If I put your optic out, and she asks...you can just tell her you picked a fight with a sharp stick and lost.
