[ Recently Bass requested some important information. Who... is the strongest Cybertronian on this ship. He received a hot tip that it was 'Shockwave' but also 'not the Senator one'. There were a few thoughts that went through his processor. One... it was really dumb that there were two people here with the SAME NAME. It must get confusing! Two, while he does (surprisingly) know what a Senator is, he has no idea what a Senator looks like. Do they wear signs? Bass guesses probably not.

This leads him to one conclusion: He has to fight BOTH of them to make sure he's actually fighting the strong one.

This leads him to a second conclusion: He has no idea where Shockwave lives. He could ask for direction, ask if anyone knows... but that begs the question... If they know how strong Bass is will they even tell the truth?

There is now one solution: He has to canvas the ship himself and check every inhabited room he comes across.

So there's the backstory. And that's why Bass, armored up in his winged Treble armor (being able to fly covers ground quicker!) is pounding aggressively at your door.

Sorry. ]

[Heavy footsteps approach the door, and it opens to the massive figure of Ultra Magnus. His frame stretches across the door frame, and his head nearly touches the top. He looks out at this loud visitor with a stern scowl.

It's his default expression.]

Can I help you?

[betterthanmegaman]

YOU!

[ Bass's wings flap and he has to adjust himself in the air to get a better viewpoint. ]

You're the biggest one I've come across yet! You HAVE to be Shockwave! Fight me!

[legalcy]

[Magnus does not move, save for his head tilting upward a few degrees to continue watching Bass.]

What has Shockwave done recently to warrant this? [He thinks of the one who had disguised himself as "Longarm Prime" for years. He wouldn't be surprised if he got on the bad side of a new arrival.]

[betterthanmegaman]

He has committed the crime of being the strongest being on this ship! I have to fight him to prove myself!

[ Magnus will find his logic to be both sound and flawless! Could there be any other reason to seek someone out?! Well... yes lots of reasons actually. BUT HIS IS THE BEST! ]

[legalcy]

There's no such crime listed in the books. [The answer is clear and simple.] There's no punishment required for that.

Are you looking for the training hall? That's a safer way to address your aggression.

[betterthanmegaman]

Of course it's not a- It's a metaphor. Are you an idiot?

[ Never mind that it took Bass FOREVER to understand metaphors and even then he usually only understands the ones he uses himself. ]

[legalcy]

No, but I take all accusations seriously. [He taps his chest with a finger.] As Head of Security, I must be made aware of what either Shockwave is doing if it puts others in danger.
