video // action for Hospitown

[Well, look who decided to rejoin the conscious Hospitown party. Kagerou's propped up in bed, looking pale and worn, a bandage over one eye in place of his eyepatch. One arm is in a cast, which has been scribbled all over by black marker.]

[Honestly, he kind of looks like he'd fall apart if he tried to stand up. But at least he's in his room in the new living quarters.]

Where...?

How did we get here? I... [He looks down at the cast on his arm, nervously picking at it with his free hand.] I don't remember this being here.

[The word "remember" is said with a slightly shaken tone. Memories are vital. And some of his are missing.]

Can someone -- the last I remember is the city being attacked. What happened?

[Time for someone to smack some sense into you, Kagerou. It's just how your robot mentor works.]

Ya don't remember cause ya had the scrap knocked outta ya.

By a wall.

I... by a wall?

[But wow is it ever good to see you, Wheeljack. He actually looks a little more relaxed.]

Them's the bricks, kid.

[...

Well, he thought it was funny.]

We got you outta there durin' the evacuation.

The... bricks...

[It's okay. Someone on his end thought it was hilarious. The Nameless, probably.]

"We"? You were there?

Yeeep. Pulled your aft outta that rubble. But your dog was the one who did most of the work.

He gets the honors.

Then... I should thank you. Shouldn't I?

Both of you.

No need, kid.

Just what Autobots do. Your partner, though, he should get kudos.

But I'm not Autobot. I... I'm going to be grateful anyway.

[SEMPAI PLEASE.]

Kudos? What does that mean... kudos?

Bah, it means...yannow.

Pats on the back. Congrats.

[Things Wheeljack barely gets.]

But you need something like that too.

... If you helped, then you deserve it as well.

Heh, appreciated kid.

But I don't go for the whole ceremonial stuff. Just keep goin, that's good enough for me.

I'll see what can be done.

For all of you.

Yeah?

Don't try too hard. Like I said, just what we do.

Because you're a living robot?

It's what you'd do, right?

I...

[He looks down. Watching something off-screen.]

... yes. It looks that way.

Good for you, kid.

Good for you.

[He just sort of... stares.]

["Good for you."]

[Words he's never heard before. He doesn't know what to say. Or... do. So he just stares.]

[At least until Koro peeks on screen long enough to whisper:]

That means 'thank you'.

...

[He can't tell if it's a good stare or a bad stare until Koro speaks up. To which the smirk widens. Slightly.]

Heh, just keep it up.

[And to that, the feed clicks. Enjoy your words of praise, Kagerou!]

[Oh thank god you're ok. Leatherhead worried about the ex-robot a lot.]

You...you were hurt. Bad.

Your digimon showed me...I carried you to the train to the village...you were hurt.

[Oh good, it's the Corner Bro. He looks a little more relaxed, seeing that video.]

You... I don't remember that.

Thank you.

Yeah duh, you were knocked out, bird brain!

[...what Duke said.]

You are alright now?

Knocked out...

[He shrugs a little, and winces.]

I think? I don't know what... this is. [He taps his cast, hesitantly.]

Yes...you were greatly hurt.

[Oh bro...you got hurt real bad...]

It is to help you heal...keep you from getting worse.

I don't... remember that. I don't remember anything but being attacked...

[His face can't really get any more pale, but it looks like it's trying.]

But it... it's hard. I can't move my hand.

I am sorry...I did not see what happened to you other than you were trapped.

[No don't move it bro, bad.]

It is to keep you from hurting it...

That's not your fault. You shouldn't apologize.

But isn't it damaged already?

I still feel sorry for your pain...

It helps it heal...I think.

Even though you haven't done anything to cause it?

...

[He taps at it again.]

Do all humans have to do this?

Because I care about you...

[He nods.]

Yes...they do.

You... you care about me. And that makes you apologize...

[He's trying to puzzle that one out.]

I am sorry for your hurt...that is what I am sorry for.

I care for you either way.

[Kagerou you're such a puzzle.]

... Because we're friends?

Ah, good. You're awake.

How are you feeling?

[He blinks, a little wide-eyed and confused...]

Who are you?

My name is Ratchet. Wheeljack reffered me to your digimon to come help you after the huge fight between those Digimon.

I helped as much as I could. [He says, pointing to his own arm for emphasis.]

Your arm was badly damaged.

Ratchet. [He tilts his head.] Are you human?

[Because that seems like a perfectly logical question in this place.]

You're a mechanic?

I wasn't originally human, no. I was Cybertronian.

[He shakes his head though and holds up a medical book, with a large red cross on it.]

I'm a medic.

Cybertronian... Does that mean you're like Wheeljack?

[Or are you one of the Decepticons he was warned about.]

Medic...? A doctor?

I'm an Autobot just like him.

Yes, that's correct.

[He relaxes, visibly, hearing that.]

Good. That's good. He said to watch out for the other kind.

Autobots have their own ... mechanic-- doctors?
