After what time had passed that began to feel like hours stretched into infinity- Stellene finally pulled herself out of the torrential storm and forced her mind back to the moment of reality. The pain still flooded her optics which her servos moved to wipe away while she collected the items from off of the floor that had been sent scattered everywhere just moments ago. They were quietly replaced upon the desk- but she took a few more minutes to simply breathe. Once she deemed it long enough- she turned and exited the smaller office with an emotionless beat upon her features. The door behind her slid with a light click, and the femme clicking of lighter peddes could be heard as she walked down the hall back to the main room. Diamond still clutched tightly to the slumbering Aquahaze, and she caught sight of a familiar visage standing at the edge of the main Bay sliding doors.
"Yes? What can we do for you?"
Her monotone voice chimed out- the friendliest she could manage at the moment.

"I was looking for the Commanding Officer and I was told they where in here" Recoil said. He was beginning to notice the glum atmosphere surrounding everyone in the base. It was starting to get to him too

"That would be me." Diamond suddenly piped up, now facing the mech and devoid of any emotion from before. It would be hard to tell that she looked any different.
"What business must you discuss with me? I don't have much time on me right now." She said, still holding little Aqua close and protectively in a way that suggested the mech not come any closer.

"I wish to know what I can do to help out at the moment" said Recoil. He was hoping he could get an assignment that would interest him, but anything would do, seeing as now is not the time to complain

Stellene turned away from the conversation as the mech was being addressed and tended for- attempting to busy herself instead with work... Energon levels. She needed to check the remainder of what she had just used on the handful of patients already. She didn't bring enough for the horde that she would be receiving in the not-so distant future. The femme moved to the far-end of the medbay around the corner ad read the panels on the large tanks. She didn't even need to read the numbers- there was barely enough blue goo to fill an entire mech. Growling, Stellene returned to the display station of numerous panels and began to shift through the screens to locate where in primus they were getting energon from on the partially-living planet. Ah. Way out there...
Exhaling from her vents deeply- not a single part of her wished to do what she was about to do.
She activated her comm link and dialed in the appropriate coordinates....

"Assigning missions is something that Vatimus must relay to you. However... tasks should be easy." The femme thought for a moment, trying to go over the current happenings within the base, "You could help the repairs of the structure, or stay with Stellene here to help her. In all honesty, it's up to you to find something to do to help. Plenty needs to be done before we can all relax."
She wasn't technically fit to do much with a sparkling and all, but at least she could order some soldiers around, not like she really had the mentality or energy to. "I suggest finding Vatimus, however."

Recoil nodded. He then turned around and left the room looking for Vatimus Prime. He had no idea what he looked like but he didn't want to look stupid. Primes usually had looks that distinguished them from other bots

Stellene lifted her helm to the red femme positioned on the perth still clutching Aquahaze. She began to rummage around and retrieve large canisters that she held under her arms before making her way past the berths.
"I need to make a quick energon run- if anyone comes in I will be *right* back. This shouldn't take long at all."
Not even waiting for approval, her hastily made strides led her through the exit.

As she'd pass by, a slim, but reasonably well-built mech would walk in. Two swords within sword scabbards locked into his back, two guns on the underside of his forearms. His colorscheme being flat black with grey stripes, and red bio lights which seemed more faint than most bots. He looked a little worn out, but still tired at the same time.
"Hey, I need a quick refuel before I head out." Thunder announced as he entered, "Can someone--"
He stopped once he saw Diamond, like a deer caught in headlights.
"Diamond...um...hey."

Diamond watched Stellene leave, before the shorter mech walked in, ”That would be ma’am to you.” She corrected him, putting on a hard expression of authority. ”You will not be getting a refuel here as the medic has left, and I sure as hell will not be giving you one, so don’t bother asking.” The femme hiked her sparkling up a little more on her shoulder.

The subject of fuel seemed to drop from his mind.
"I'm just glad to see you're doing alright."
He smiled and looked to Aquahaze, "Hey there little guy. Keeping your mama safe out there?" He asked the child with a friendly tone and facial expression.

Dia hummed at his comment about her being alright. Why wouldn't she? She claimed herself to be one of the strongest and most hardheaded when it came to survival. The femme didn't plan on dying soon at all. "He's sleeping." Diamond said with an unimpressed look, inching him a little away from the mech, still unaware of the power he could have.

Thunder raised an optic ridge, then sighed.
"You still don't trust me." Thunder said with a small smile, though one backed by a bit of disappointment, "Makes sense, we haven't talked in months. Believe me, I'm nothing to worry about." His tone then became more determined, and a tad heroic, "Don't you worry, I'm gonna stop that mask wearing bastard before he takes anyone else. I'll protect you Diamond, I promise!"
God he was so generically anime and trying to be heroic it was almost endearing if it wasn't sad how hard he was trying. Though from the look in his optics, she could tell he meant what he said.

The doors to the Medbay nearly snapped apart as two familiar frames entered through the wider opening to the brighter lit room. The curvaceous, and taller figure of Stellene coated in a light hue of red signaled her return from an energon run. However it seemed she had returned with more than just the energon as she had promised. Her visor-guard flipped over heavily amused features as she casually chatted to the brighter, more blinding bot behind her. The mech seemed completely unaffected by the travel, which was what Stellene had assumed he hid from on purpose. Though her peddes trailed a little pool of dust behind her- a small mopping 'bot activated. Something she had worked on in the free time she had while cleaning out the Bay. The little thing squeaked its way to life and trailed after the pair- cleaning and scrubbing the floors with a stressful whir.
"So- what can I help you find here?" Her tone rolled out easily as her helm turned back over her shoulder to Wheelspin, more relaxed than it had before whens he was thrown into chaos.
The femme retreived the cannister from him with a quieter, "thanks", speaking as she deposited the brighter energon into the storage tanks.

WheelSpin looked pleased at the fact that he did not need to remove dust and rust from any extremities, while doing his job of keeping the medic from imminent death by an explosion of volatile energon colliding within her frame. Well, it was a little less dramatic than that, but he certainly had preferred to take that ride, than have to tag along behind or infront of her, both options opening him to a sizeable amount of rust and dirt.
"I just need a few more tools, some raw materials, plating, cabling, wiring, blade sharpener, laser cutter, " he listed off the things he had come to fetch. "A compressor, piston rings, spark plug, pistons,..wouldn't mind a few crankshafts either, clynder blocks, coils, camshafts, distributors, alternators..." He droned on about the parts, mechanisms, etc that he needed to get back to his own med bay. "Oh right.. and more paint. I would assume some basics are here at the medbay, ready to be mixed, yes? I can look for it myself. And I will need to upload a few reports later." which meant he would have to leave the medbay eventually. More quietly he added: "You're welcome."
And then he was back to looking around, and at his list, the datapad that he had brought with him, flicking through it again then up. "Nice." He said finally looking around . "Not bad. You've updated it a bit since I was last here, didn't you?" He meant the medbay. He had not noticed the other occupants just yet, more interested in what changes the medbay had gone through since he was last privy to work in it.

"Excuse me Diamond."
A few steps and Thunder's arm was wrapped tightly around Wheelspin's neck, though he was laughing as if it was all in a friendly manner.
"Hey there Wheelie!" Thunder proclaimed, "Man I have been looking all over for you! You got here quicker than I did buddy, guess you didn't have to drive SIX GOD DAMN HOURS to get here, now did ya, my guy?" He gave him a noogie, as if to keep hiding his irritation, "So, why don't we go to that lab so you can supply me with the things Vatimus me needs me to have. Okay? Okay!"

An optic ridge was tilted upwards at thw hefty list that the mech began to ramble off- Most of the things listed were in a very unorganized storage room for the time being... And she wouldn't be the one to help him find anything.
"Alright well- you should know where the storage unit is... can't say I know exactly where any of those items are..."
The taller femme began to retreat in tbe dorection of a familiar brighter hued 'bot on one of the berths as she called out over her shoulder in response to his remark about the improved Medibay.
"This place needed a bit of my touch... Ans a heavy security system."
A handful more cybertronians began to file into the medbay, but unless they were screaming out in agony or missing limbs- she didn't quite care. The drones assisted them with whatever they needed, and made sure to record their information and cause for the visit in the system. Stellene plopped down with a heavy, "oof-" besides Diamond and began to clean the abyss out if her systems from the travel. Her helm tilted upwards to watch tbe affair event with an unknown mech immediatelt hanging himself off of Wheel. Ahe burrowed her ridges and muttered to the femme.
"Who's this clown?"

WheelSpin did not appreciate the proximity of the other mech and actually appreciated the arm over his neck plating and cabling even less than he did the frame hanging off of his own, so it was not a surprise when his optics turned to lock on Thunder's and a sudden charge was sent through his frame. Anything that touched him would feel and act as a conductor to transfer the charge through the rest of the body and allow it to experience terrible pain. It would be something akin to getting burnt and shocked and otherwise badly pyhsically hurt all at the same time. It was activating the pain receptors and amping them up. It would have lasted for as long as Thunder held onto him, but the moment the contact was gone, so would the pain, leaving a relatively number, throbbing, discomfort behind. "Don't touch me." He said in a purring low tone, so polite and sweet that it appeared in starkest contrast to what his frame was doing. A servo had been curled around the one arm that was close to his neck in mock friendliness, ready to yank it forward and off of his neck cabling, so that when the charge was released he did just that. He brought his other arm up to block any attempt at touching his helm and pulled away. "I got here faster because we are not as slow as your rattler of a frame." He answered dusting his frame with a few careful rubs of his servos over the areas that had come in contact with the other bot. He paused when he heard it had been Vating who ordered it. Oh, still the one to want to get everything, and yet ignore the mechs and their efforts unless they were his friends. Reward those others, whether deserving or undeserving. WheelSpin had noticed that happening more and more and didn't like it. But there was something of greater importance than that right now. "You were all notified about the mobilization of the Decepticons, right? There has been measurements taken, towards securing yourself because of that too,...right?" He asked , knowing he had sent a comm to Diamond, so she would know, but she and the aforementioned had been the only two he had notified. Never the less he went on to explain quickly on what he learned, because the base did not appear to him to be all that much different to when he came here last. While it was probably not going to be the one first attacked or attacked this time around as by logic alone the attack would go at the areas closer to the border, the base was still a good target to be: "They are preparing for something big according to one of the prisoners I've questioned. With the numbers he had seen, when they attack, we better be more than ready or we are at a risk of loosing our sectors and flooding the medbays with the injured, if we are even lucky enough there would be any survivors to repair." He did explain it in a bit more detail, as Stellene needed to know as well to get ready for the amount of work and preparation the news may demand from her, while the other occupants would not hurt in knowing was what up either. He glanced at Thunder again. "...What was it again, that you needed? I was busy scouting, repairing and fortifying, so I could not work on it back at my workshop. That, and I think a couple of parts I was missing anyway, but I can try to make it here if the right materials are available." He had nodded to Stellene. "Thank you, doc." She had been in 'possession' of this medbay, so while her 'ok' was not fully necessary, it was still welcome to get, especially as he was going to plunder the stores for all the necessary equipment. "And... if you touch me like that again, not only will it hurt you more... Anything you did want to get from me.. Will not be made or given, understood?" His voice was still pleasant, and the usual deep purr, but there was a slight edge to it, clearly expressing that he was not joking about that. And at the final last he tilted his helm towards Diamond adding a polite: "Hello again, Diamond." Before turning to head to the supply room, and expecting Thunder to follow with his requests.

"Ow!"
Thunder backed off, and he'd notice that it didn't hurt him as much, and the charge seemed to dissipate in his joints. He heard what Wheelspin had to say, and it wasn't anything surprising to say the least. Decepticons attacking, big numbers, the usual.
"I need fuel, energon, ammo, stealth tech, signal dampener, grapnel gun, some silencers for my underarm autocannons, enough to get me into Decepticon territory without being noticed. I think I may be able to find something of interest to the 'Cons up in one of their warships. And get a closer look at Tarn and how he fights." Thunder slammed his fists together, "So..." sigh, "Please help me out here, Wheelspin."

The femme kept a careful eye on the two, being the more aggressive one in the room, she made sure the two didn’t start fighting.
”Some mech I made the mistake of saving from the crash. Now he won’t leave me alone unfortunately.” She murmured to Stellene, perking her wings. Wheelspin was great at sounding serious while being to nice, she had to give him that, even she was slightly unnerved by how calm he could be while frustrated.
She nodded when the mech greeted her, her optics returning down to her lap.
