Autobots, this is Chief Medical Officer Ratchet responding to a request for medical assistance. I'm currently in orbit and am open to suggestions for places to land discreetly to keep your cover intact. Please respond with a location, or a briefing, or both, as soon as possible.

Good. I'll forward you the inventory of our current supplies at base as well. When you land I'll want a copy of your ship manifest to update our records.

[asafepairofhands]

I'll forward it to you now, I have it on hand.

Anything else you can think of that I might need to know?

[ultramatum]

[Magnus barely hesitates to gather his thoughts, he's got a lot on his mind and he's secretly glad someone asked, even if the info may not be necessarily relevant to Ratchet's eminent landing.]

During the battle for the Forge, it became necessary to assume our primary modes, which effectively revealed our presence on the planet. I will be working with local authorities to try and minimize any impact to our mission, however this planet has not had much benevolent experience with alien species. Convincing them are mean their people no harm may prove difficult.

Also we have lost contact with Rodimus. He likely remains on-world but he has not been responding to radio contact and no one has seen him in weeks.

[He sounds more frustrated than worried. With Rodimus it was impossible to tell if he was actually in danger or if this was just an act of disobedience.]

[asafepairofhands]

Oh, hell. I'll be extra careful to ensure I'm not seen, in that case.

[Ratchet pauses, his lips thinning.]

I wish I could say I was shocked, but I'm not. We'd likely have heard about it if he was injured, and if not, he'll come home when he's hungry. It doesn't sound we can waste personnel or risk blowing our cover worse to do a search.

[ultramatum]

Yes, that is what we decided. Hopefully he reappears soon, I don't like having a soldier unaccounted for.

Send word when you are preparing to land, we'll have Arcee as stable as possible if you need her moved from the Rod Pod.
