He started sending messages to Air, bothering him. T-there was a recording of.. *Quint cuts off abruptly and shakes his head. He doesn't want to think about that again.
It's stopped now.*he adds, uncertain just how the transmission of the recording was stopped.*
*he looks over to the towels* We couldn't get Shadow and Charge away from him. They warped away.
*Quick looks over at Air, both concerned about just what Wind was doing and annoyed at Air for trying to hide it. Quick knows what Wind is like when he's angry. He asks, sounding a little suspicious,* Recording? Exactly what kind of recording was it, Air?
*Quick sighs on hearing about Shadow and Charge.* You can't always win 'em all.
*Air responds quickly to Terrorsaur's question.* Yes, Crash next, The other two are going to be a lot more difficult.
*Air shivers a little bit at the question from Quick. He doesn't exactly want to answer it. Not at all.* Don't worry about it Quick. I'm fine.
*Terrorsaur carries Crash over to the CR, being very careful. That cracking noise when Charge hit him the last time had been disturbing. Although, for some reason it reminded him of Waspinator's poor luck with any loose boulders that might be around.*
*Quick shakes his head, having a good idea of what the recording was now.* From that info, I think I can guess now... Don't apologize, Quint, those are unnerving. Worse in person, but...
*Quick glares a little at Air.* Air, we'll talk about this later. Among other things.
*Air nervously stares at the computer screen, since he was still there. He shivers a little, knowing exactly what 'talk' means in that tone. Just like Quick wanted to 'talk' with Crash after the reactivation from the repairs from the alcohol damage.*
((Since I forgot to give a real description of Crash's condition earlier, I'll do it now.))
*Crash looks rather beaten. His armor has cracks all over, some small pieces have broken off entirely. His helmet has several nasty looking cracks on it from repeated blows to the head. Whatever caused the loud cracking noise earlier, it isn't exactly obvious.*
*Quint recovers enough to remember what he's supposed to be doing and darts back over to where he left his computer, to upload the scan made when Crash ahd come to the party to the Predacon computer so that it can compare it to the new scan from the CR.*
*Blues goes over next to Quick, and speaks quietly*
Don't be too rough on the kid. I think things would have gone a lot worse if he hadn't come with us to rescue you.
Aside from the problem of finding you in the first place, Tango reported that Shadow seemed to have orders to attack Air. Meaning if he hadn't come, Shadow might have stayed hidden and then grabbed the both of you instead. And I'd rather not have to sneak into Skull Castle to snatch you back.
*He notices what Tango is doing, and almost smiles, moving to pick up the cat* She's decided she likes Crash for some reason.
*He chuckles and looks to Quick* You don't think Crash would want a cat, do you?
*Quick shakes his head and sighs.* I'm not going to be hard on him for coming with a rescue party. Also, they had fully intended on taking us back. Wily wants us back, so he can make Crash and me into examples. There might not have been anything left to snatch back. *Quick's expression darkens a little.* However, I don't like Air deliberately hiding things from me.
*Quick grins a little.* I don't know if Crash would want something like that or not. He's never mentioned anything about wanting one before, but he probably wouldn't.
*Air is obviously nervous about the condition Crash is in now. He's not sure what made the cracking sound earlier and knows it could be any number of things. Air's scared actually.*
*Blues expression looks odd for a second, and he replies almost absently* Sometimes we hide things from others so they won't worry about things they can't do anything about.
*He smiles at Tango and puts her down* I asked in case Tango decides to be contrary and follow Crash home one of these days. Cats are like that.
*Quint shivers and waits for the CR to scan, even though he'll understand very little of the information. He almost wishes he knew things about the future in universes other than his own, so he'd know if Crash would be ok. But then, he remembers, he doesn't really know if any of them are going to survive what's coming in his own universe. When he does know things, it's just too patchy and erratic.*
*He's scared too, but he's trying to tell himself everything will be fine. After all, he's heard the stories from Waspinator and Terrorsaur about the amount of damage Waspinator used to get when they were fighting Maximals years ago. And Crash isn't shredded into pieces or crushed into a little cube... so he should be ok. Right?*
*Quint knows, though, that even among the Beasties Waspinator isn't exactly normal. And that some componants can't be easily repaired and are impossible to replace.*
((*reminded of the "Beast Wars In Rhyme" thing from ATT years ago*))
(("If someone is going to be hit. You can bet Waspinator is it. He's been crushed, cubed, and shredded, and often beheaded Man, is it any wonder he quit?"))
*Quick nods, reaching down to pet the cat rubbing against his legs.* But Air has almost gotten himself destroyed in the past doing that... And those times, we could have helped.
*Once the scan is finished, Air carefully starts looking at the amount of damage. A lot of internal structural damage is present. None of the damage is to the really important parts at least.* Well, this could be a whole lot worse. He should be fine. Not as bad as when Mega Man got him at least...

Did you have a fallback location if you were found? *he smiles slightly* Or should I plan a sleepover somewhere?
