3rd Web [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

[When the feed clicks on Blackarachnia is standing by the window in her bedroom staring out at the heavy rains. she has her arms crossed and it Dorumon can't be seen. But, the view shifts a little, moving close to peer out the window itself. That should answer the question of where her partner is at least.]

It looks like this slag heap is trying its best to make me feel at home.

Why? Was the weather weird where you were from?

Yeah, it was unpredictable. At least this isn't an energon storm.

[The terminal moves to look up at Blackarachnia who doesn't seem to notice the thing is even on yet. She has her eyes focused on the chaos outside and seems to have a little tighter of a grip on the curtain than one would think necessary.]

You okay?

Yeah. Just memories.

[At that point she glances down at her partner and tenses. Seconds later she reaches down and forcefully shuts off the device.]

Ah memories, the greatest treasure of all~

I should start a scrap book.

[treacherous_widow]

A scrap book. I'm not that sentimental.

[revvinguptheharley]

I just meant for current events. It's a fun little crafting project.

So what's on your mind?

[treacherous_widow]

Whatever.

Just.. thoughts of home.

[revvinguptheharley]

What kinda home do ya come from?

I'm imagining, big city!

[treacherous_widow]

[That actually gets a soft chuckle from the she-spider.]

Hardly. Try Prehistoric Earth.

[revvinguptheharley]

Yeesh, sounds rough.

But you looked nostalgic.

[treacherous_widow]

Oh it was and I wouldn't have it any other way.

[Shrugs]

Even a widow like me has things she misses.

[revvinguptheharley]

Some things...or maybe someone ?

[treacherous_widow]

[That gets a bit of a glare. You may have hit a nerve with that.]

Why the slag would you care? I was fine on my own before JoJo entered the picture and I'll be fine again with him out of it.

[revvinguptheharley]

Jojo huh?

I can 't help but be curious. I'm a people person.

I gotta say now that I think about it, I miss my Puddin' too. I dunno for Jojo but Mister J was so much of my world. More then he probably shoulda been.

[treacherous_widow]

[Blackarachnia glances away and back out of the window.]

...Yeah. He was a good chunk of my world recently. I like them big and stupid and he took the energon in that category....In a good way.

[revvinguptheharley]

Aw, he sounds like a sweetie~

How'd you meet him?

[treacherous_widow]

He was too sweet.

In battle. The mutt refused to shoot me.

[revvinguptheharley]

Well that's reasonable. After all who'd want to mess up your pretty face?

So why didn't you shoot him?

[treacherous_widow]

You'd be surprised. I don't have a lot of fans back home.

[A slight understatement on her part considering.]

Why should I? The moron wasn't going to shoot and it was a perfect opportunity to escape so like any self respecting spider, I took it.

[revvinguptheharley]

Well, there's no accounting for taste~

[A cheerful wink]

That makes sense. After all what would you have gotten out of taking advantage of him?

[treacherous_widow]

One less Maximal to fight.

[And a missed opportunity to get a bad girls dream bot all to herself.]

[revvinguptheharley]

Sounds like you made the right choice then.

[Sigh]

Love can make us all do crazy things. Trust me. I'm an expert.

[treacherous_widow]

Oh yeah? And what makes you such an expert on the subject.

[revvinguptheharley]

Oh I've been studying the effects of love on people's sanity for years! It was my graduating thesis! Love is such a powerful motivation it can make people act completely against their instincts and logic. It can cause deep levels of change so overwhelming that people can pull a complete 180 because of it.

[treacherous_widow]

[Blackarachnia really can't comment on that considering her own circumstances and Silverbolt. So, she just grumbles softly and shakes her head.]

Why the slag would you study something like that?

[revvinguptheharley]

Well...there's plenty of reasons for that. First off I wanted to become a doctor and rub it in my mom's overbearing face. Next, if you understand how people...or in your case bots, work then you can manipulate them easier.

But most of all it's just fun! Madness is fascinating, always changing. Chaos is life and the world.

[treacherous_widow]

... Lady, you would have had a field day with the morons I was forced to deal with.

[revvinguptheharley]

I don't doubt that. Just from watching the comings and goings of the bots who end up here I get plenty of giggles.

[treacherous_widow]

I bet.

So what kind of crazy scrap can I expect to happen around here any way. So far, it's been lights out and dark spots mixed with weather that makes an energon storm look tame.


Does it get worse, or is that about normal?

[revvinguptheharley]

Well, that all depends on what your feelings are about having your personality rewired for about a week. When I came here the whole world got turned into a black and white movie world. We were all turned into these characters like femme fetales, detectives, mobsters and such.

[treacherous_widow]

.....

[She really doesn't like the sound of any of that.]

Who in the pit is in charge around here.

[revvinguptheharley]

My theory? A network executive who hasn't seen cartoons in years.

[treacherous_widow]

......What's a cartoon.

[revvinguptheharley]

Animated entertainment.

[treacherous_widow]

....Uh huh. Well that company executive can shove this entire world up his tailpipe and go dancing into a volcano.

[oneeyedterror]

Memories are a pain in the aft, that's for sure.

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

You can say that again.

Re: [audio]

[oneeyedterror]

[He almost, almost, sounds like he is going to say it again. But damn if he's too tired to be a little shit, for once.]

So you just going to stare outside and think about 'em or what?

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

Why? Don't like the image of a pretty bot staring out the window?

[audio]

[oneeyedterror]

If I wanted to see that I'd find a mirror and watch myself.

[Oh Whirl, no. Bad Whirl.]

But eh... a Shanix for your thoughts or something?

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

Whatever.

I was wondering if a certain mutt I know will end up here or not.

Re: [audio]

[oneeyedterror]

Huh, you must really like the fellow if you want to have him here.

[Is that sarcasm? Sounds like sarcasm.]

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

Hardly. He's an annoyance I got used to so it's just weird not having to deal with it.

Re: [audio]

[oneeyedterror]

Interesting to hear.

And hey maybe he will show up, who knows? But you shouldn't waste the time you got without a pain in the aft around.

Re: [audio]

[treacherous_widow]

[There's silence for a few long moment.]

You're probably right. If the dog faced idiot shows up, fine. If not, this spider did fine before he came online and she can do fine without him.
