Oh, that's wonderful to hear! Fine is a lot better than awful! I still need to double check on this, though, for my own peace of mind. You're at you quarters now, correct?

[She already knows and is standing outside his room, she just wanted to give him at least some sense of control over this.]

[Velocity squeaked with surprise at being walked into, rocking with the movement before stepping back with her hands up apologetically, oh boy,] Well! I suppose that answers my question! I was hoping to get to talk to you some first, but if you have somewhere to be we can walk and talk?

Of course! Wherever you want to go. I'll help you. Afterwards I can do a scan, though I'll be keeping an eye on your leg as we go. I'm sure you'll say you're fine, but any amount of pain or loss of mobility shouldn't have to just be tolerated.

[A tip of her head, and a smile.] You were worth that risk. I'll handle any repercussions after today, when I've ensured to my satisfaction that you've been taken care of properly.

Pride won't help you. It might keep you going for a while, but if you keep going the way you are...

I guess I'll be right with you every step the way, the way I am now. You need that. Everyone does.

[An absentminded hum, not looking at him in order to give Megatron at least that much privacy. She hasn't missed the way he's struggling, however, though her tone is light.]

And what will you do, if that's all you've prioritized? You don't care about your own comfort. You don't rely on anyone, or let them rely on you, if I'm to guess. If you don't encourage those things... What will be left when the spite burns away?

I don't want you to have to find out.

[Velocity steps through with a smile and a curious expression as she looks around. She's never been here before, and the decor is interesting, but not as interesting as her companion.]

You said you came here to pick up a few things, right? Should we sit at the bar? You'll have more room to stretch your leg out there, if you need to.

[She knows he does, but the question is whether that pride and spite of his will allow it.]

[Velocity peeked at his order despite herself, though quickly raised her optics to the ceiling as if she'd witnessed something deeply private. Orders a drink without looking down, then accepts it and finally lowers her gaze just to see him staring blankly at that datapad of his.]

Are you all right? Is it the pain, or is something on your mind? Admittedly, I'm better at handling one over the other...

[personal profile] tenthtimeisthecharm 2023-07-22 11:36 am (UTC)(link)
[She sat and she stared. There was the temptation to lower her eyes down to the table and to squirm the way she always had when people took her to task for getting something wrong, although this was bigger than a spelling or reading comprehension mistake, and it wouldn't have felt right to cower when he corrected her as if he were some monster. He wasn't. He was just the same as anyone, and anyone deserved to be met with her chin held high.]

I didn't mean- I didn't intend to-

[She tightened her grip on her own drink, which was the lightest they'd had available, then deliberately relaxed it.]

I apologize. I shouldn't have made assumptions. I don't want to make you or my other patients to feel disrespected or like I'm not listening, I really genuinely do want to understand. So... I will do like you said, and do research on the war.

[Another pause, as she glanced at him, weighing whether it would be appropriate to point out that he'd been talking about his soldiers as if the war had happened to just them, and not him, but eventually decided to remain quiet.]

[A nod, along with making a mental note to talk to Knock Out about this during future visits, if he recommended she have any more. She'd never thought about herself as presumptuous before, but she supposed most presumptuous people didn't. It was a disconcerting feeling, and one she intended to banish by beating with the stick of self awareness. If possible.]

Is there something I should keep in mind while reading through them? If you didn't make the reports on things you've lived through, yourself, how will I know if it's objective?

[Another nod as she pulled out her datapad and began to dictate into it.] Note to Lotta Littles, go to the library after your next few shifts to research the variations of the war, along with recent events and politics. Unicron, too, there's got to be more than stories.

[She glanced aside as him and raised her datapad to gesture with it.] I apologize if this is distracting, I have difficulty reading and writing, and it helps me focus. Especially because... [A hesitation, as she thinks of her suspicions that she's steadily going mad.] Things have been been, um. Strange. Since arriving here. Have they been strange for you?

[personal profile] tenthtimeisthecharm 2023-07-22 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Velocity nodded, started to take a sip of her drink, then put it down without touching it. She looked haunted by the handprint on his chest, and all the more so by her own thoughts.]

Do you... do you ever wonder... I mean. If no one but you remembers things happening the way they did, how do you know it really happened?

[Velocity's thoughtful frown eased into a smile as she gave a little laugh, though beneath the table her free hand clenched and released into a fist, knowing she'd said too much already.]

Anyone would on first showing up here, wouldn't they? Maybe I've just been working too hard.

[A pause and a puzzled look, before she obligingly set down her cube and tried with both hands to bend the wrench, without any success whatsoever. She let out a huff of a laugh and set it back down where she'd picked it up, giving it a little nudge so the angles matched up. It was a new habit she'd picked up, to help keep from bothering Ratchet when she had to borrow or move something.]

I, um? I don't think I understand, but it's still very solidly the way it was.
