[Cybertronian encryption]
This is Ratchet. Who else hails from Cybertron on this ship?

[Open voice]
How many here woke up organic? I've made a perusal of the activity on the network already and I am quite curious.

He was a good soldier and a fine Autobot. And yes, I am an Autobot as well. Why do you ask?

I'm trying to convince myself you aren't going to cut anyone open during their recharge. There isn't a good way to say that.

Not that I think you would, just from the way you're talking. But I have a lot of hard-earned battle programs telling me otherwise. It's not personal, it's just that you're kind of crazy where I come from.

That is utterly reprehensible. That is certainly nothing I would ever do to anyone, regardless of faction.

I am not the Ratchet you know of. I fight to save lives, not take them in mad schemes.

I understand. I'll just have to remind myself on a regular basis. I'm sorry, reflexes are hard to lose, and you're - he's - one of our worst nightmares.

Let me try this again. I am Heatwave and it's good to meet a fellow Cybertronian. I thought I was alone for a bit there.

I promise not to do any bad science on you, or anyone else. Unless they are harming others, I should add.

A pleasure to meet you, Heatwave. I take it your world is a bit different from the one I am familiar with?

I'm sure you won't [he isn't being sarcastic either, but he's sleeping with something hard and bludgeon-capable tonight anyway.]

Very. If you meet anyone claiming to be an Autobot, but they believe their symbol is purple, stay away from them. Most of them are too crazy to care about deception, but the ones who aren't? Aren't guys you want to be around, and since it appears you're the only Cybertronian medic here right now...

You are a medic, right? [for all he knew, this Ratchet could be a gun-toting frontliner with issues and a bad attitude when he's not talking to other Cybertronians on a strange network on a strange ship.]

Primus. [Ratchet has a processor ache. Wait he has a brain now, so a headache? Oh organics.]

Chief Medical Officer of the Autobots. I have a few other titles if you wish to know. [Not a bad attitude, just a blunt one. And he's had to serve as a frontliner with some wicked weaponry.]

Yeah, I know.

No, that's okay. Same position as my Ratchet. I'd just be even more wary about them trying to trick you if they know you're not only a medic but a familiar face. Sort of.

[not that he thinks you don't know that or can't take care of yourself, but ahhh, they have a Cybertronian medic! It doesn't matter if he knows how to care for human bodies or not, he is awesome and must be guarded. Obviously.]

Noted.

[he does know how to care for human bodies]

Question. How much time did you spend around humans? In your normal form, I mean.

[Well then that's even better. Stay away from the evil Autobots, Ratchet]

A few months, if my memories are accurate at this point.

So not a lot of time to observe humans and how they act, then. I've had a bit more familiarity, thanks to their networks and forming an alliance to help them protect their world.

I've noticed a few habits, but not much, yes. I didn't have the most interaction with the humans that visited our base often, and my function kept my attention elsewhere.

I know they need to eat every day, though there was never a consistent...anything to do with it. They need to rest more often than we do-- did. Clothes are mandatory. They're very fragile and sensitive to small changes in environment. They're tactile and easily distracted. Don't mess up gender pronouns or the gendered terms of respect. Don't consume anything off of something besides appropriate eating utensils unless it has been less than five seconds.

I'm assuming there are holes.

You have the basics, but yes, there are a lot of holes in your information.

I'd thought so. Any recommendations?

[speak your wisdom, oh wise glasses ratchet]

Make friends with humans and study their ways. Majority of the time, there will be accepted practices for certain things. Anything else, come find me.

Yes, sir. I'll do that.

[Doc.]

Acknowledged.

[D'aww]
