* Waitstate looks over
<Admiral-Lilwall> Our mystery 'friend''s application

<Artifice> Not just some neutralist gawker I hope
<Admiral-Lilwall> Yes, His name is Scope, a private investigator
* Trilana knocks at Wait's door
<bartender> Not really. But if you want to play a set, the stage is open. You play for tips, that's all. 
<Ayreon> COOL, thanks
<Admiral-Lilwall> he wants to meet with you at the city's main bar later tonight

<Waitstate> hmm... got any info on the location?
* Stardrive catches up to Tri
<Admiral-Lilwall> And not only that, *hands Wait another app* this is promising also. Another security guard
<Trilana> Oh, there you are.
<Admiral-Lilwall> and a top notch one at that
* Trilana and SD enter.
<Waitstate> Interesting... we could use people like that
<Stardrive> Greetings.
<Admiral-Lilwall> Yeah, *gives Wait a small datapad*  this a map to the location, easy as hell to get to once you know how
<Waitstate> ah... Star, Trilana... what did you need?
<Stardrive> What are you doing?
<Waitstate> having a small conference regarding new members
<Trilana> Well, I was looking for Starry.  I thought he might have been here.
<Stardrive> I was looking for Tri... found her outside your door.
<Waitstate> ah
<Waitstate> you two have any luck finding applicants?
<Stardrive> Just bummin, now.
<Admiral-Lilwall> Hm, not to be too judgy Wait...but this place is a turbo worm sty....maybe we should move this to the conference room?
<Artifice> Well, I'm off to finish up on the "outside affairs"
<Artifice> ;)
* Awol returns from the sleazy casino
* Ystejam knocks on Waitstate's door 
<Waitstate> good idea, Lil.
<Waitstate> Gah!
<Ytsejam> Hello?
<Waitstate> Come in!
* Ytsejam enters the room
<Waitstate> Hello again Ytsejam
* Admiral-Lilwall grabs all the application forms and heads for the conference room

<Waitstate> *to Lil* I'll be there shortly
* Artifice leaves the room
<Admiral-Lilwall> *nod* *exits*
<Ytsejam> Here's my completed paper work, in triplicate
* Waitstate looks it over
<Waitstate> this looks quite good :)
* Artifice comes back
<Ytsejam> thank you
<Artifice> Why do we use paper again?
<Artifice> :)
<Ytsejam> can your landing bay hold an Intrepid class shuttle?
<Waitstate> Intrepid class? Do you have a spec for it?
* Artifice leaves the room again
<Ytsejam> Right here
<Waitstate> hmm...
<Waitstate> no, I don't think we could quite fit that
<Ytsejam> OK, I'll find someplace for it
<Ytsejam> maybe I'll add a landing bay to my lab
* Waitstate chuckles
* Admiral-Lilwall enters the conference room and starts looking over some apps
<Waitstate> I'd like to see it if you do :)
<Ytsejam> feel free to take a tour of my lab when you have the time
<Stardrive> Oh well, we're going to wander for awhile.
<Ytsejam> The computer will guide you
<Waitstate> Heh... which certainly isn't now *motions to the mass piles of datapads*
<Trilana> See you later.
* Trilana and SD leave.
* Awol smiles and pats his credit card
<Waitstate> If that's all, you can just hand that to Overwrite. I have a meeting to get to :)
* Trilana wander around Ytsejam's lab.
* Stardrive follows.
* Ytsejam hands over fully completed datawork
* Ytsejam returns to his lab
* Dark_Star leaves Ytsejam's lab
* Waitstate grabs a few pads and runs to the conference room
* Waitstate enters and sits down
<Ytsejam> I thought I locked this door
<Admiral-Lilwall> heya. I've got a few of the better ones over there
<Dark_Star> Yes, you did, I was locked in
<Waitstate> good...
* Ayreon sets up his epuipment in the bar and begins playing
<Waitstate> I just got that ytsejam guy's completed paperwork
<Ytsejam> Oh.......um......sorry
<Dark_Star> Sure
<Admiral-Lilwall> how's it look
<Waitstate> very good
<Admiral-Lilwall> good
<Waitstate> I think he's a keeper, so to speak :)
<Admiral-Lilwall> now we've got that PI guy and the security one, I think there was another security type here somewhere also
<Waitstate> security guy?
<Ytsejam> feel free to look around. Just don't turn off any safety switches you find (If I remembered to turn them on :-)
<Admiral-Lilwall> I think her name was Skysiren but I'm not sure
<Waitstate> hmm
<Admiral-Lilwall> yes...er...Cuffs is the name
<Waitstate> Cuffs, eh? Definitely devoted to his job I'd bet :)
<Admiral-Lilwall> served as a security officer here on nelvada for the past couple of hundred years
<Admiral-Lilwall> has earned some high ranking awards too
* Ytsejam heads of to his office
<Admiral-Lilwall> in any case pending on approval he's working his last shift here right now.
<Waitstate> in this complex?
<Admiral-Lilwall> Oh, this may not be the right time to mention it, but that autobot guy we found on that psycho asteroid base... Restore couldn't save him, he's dead
<Admiral-Lilwall> yeah, eight blocks from port actually
<Waitstate> hmm... sad :/
<Admiral-Lilwall> Restore recycled the 'bot into a pair of new bodies
* Waitstate makes a mental note to meet Cuffs later tonight
<Waitstate> Oh?
<Admiral-Lilwall> and with your permission she'd like to bring them online
* Awol looks around for fellows
* Ayreon starts into Paradigm Shift by LTE
<Admiral-Lilwall> another two disk-formers
<Waitstate> more of em, eh?
<Waitstate> I'll need to talk to her I guess...
* Awol makes for the quarters hoping he'll run into somebody along the way
<Admiral-Lilwall> Heh, yeah, Restore has made one to be Overwrite's 'brother' as such, in an effort to lighten him a tad
<Waitstate> Oh no... Another Overwrite?
* Crevas runs into AWOL
<Admiral-Lilwall> well I don't know what the personality will be like to be honest
* Stardrive and Trilana continue to wander around the lab.
<Waitstate> oh
<Waitstate> hmm...
<Waitstate> and the other?
* Awol nearly falls over
<Awol> woah, I'm sorry
* Artifice returns to Waitstate with a small scratch on his arm
* Crevas spins around for a few moments
* a blue and grey female robot enters the bar Ayreon is playing at
* Awol tries to help steady Crevas
<Admiral-Lilwall> I didn't ask, could be anything from a flea to a battle cruiser mode for all I know
* Waitstate turns and watches Artifice walk into the Conference Room
<Stardrive> *to Tri* I used to have a Tiluan Crystal just like that...
<Artifice> Some of the locals have gotten a little riled up about military recruiters
* Crevas regains himself then zips through AWOL's legs about his business
<Awol> hmmm
<Waitstate> oh? That sounds bad...
* Awol watches Crevas depart
<Artifice> Hard to say how many more real applicants will join
* Waitstate slumps
<Artifice> or will want to join rather
<Waitstate> I knew this was too good to be true
* Ayreon inadverdantly goes into "Crystaline Dream" by Shadow Gallery
<Admiral-Lilwall> Eh, look at it this way boss, at least we're getting applicants
<Stardrive> *to Tri* I used to have a Rilvuan power converter just like that...
<Artifice> Well, with such a large number of neutrals I'm sure we'll get at least a dozen new members
* Shadowpaw wanders the ship, completely bored
<Stardrive> *to Tri*  Where does he get all this stuff?  That's a Verellian data chip!
* Stardrive accesses the chip.
<Waitstate> I was estimating much more that that.... SLAG! [slams his fist onto the table]
<Admiral-Lilwall> Hey, it's no biggy. We're used to a small number, we'll deal
<Stardrive> *to Tri*  Verellian Sitcoms!  This is my chip!  I lost it in subspace months ago!
<Waitstate> I was hoping that would change
* Awol makes for conference room
<Admiral-Lilwall> Well there are other colonies out there...we'll have our load eventually
<Ayreon> *singing* Hold onto these/memories I grant you/The gifts of our live/lost in the sands of time
<Waitstate> We've been out of port almost 4 years now though
<Stardrive> *to Tri* I'll bet that WAS my converter and my crystal... I lost them in subspace too!
<Stardrive> *to Tri* This lab is a big subspace black hole.
<Ayreon> Deserts forever/Relentlessly barren/I crossed them all in the blink of an eye
<Admiral-Lilwall> And just think of what could have happened should we have been swamped at the start?
<Stardrive> *to Tri* No wonder I keep losing stuff.
<Admiral-Lilwall> you'd overload :)
* Shadowpaw heads to the conference room
<Waitstate> gah... I'm close to it now. I suppose you're right
* Awol enters conference room, and stumbles into table
<Trilana> Think he runs a lost and found?
* Stardrive looks at Tri.
<Waitstate> How the heck did I go from bartender to administrator so damn fast?
<Trilana> heheh :)
<Admiral-Lilwall> Er, haven't you heard of knocking before entering a council meeting?
<Ytsejam> Hi you two, problem?
* Stardrive shakes his head.
* Waitstate looks over at AWOL
<Waitstate> AWOL? What's wrong?
* Ytsejam approaches the pair
<Awol> uh... hehehe
* Awol looks for a seat
<Stardrive> Ever notice stuff appearing in your lab that wasn't there before?
* Shadowpaw waits outside the conference room and tries to listen in
* Admiral-Lilwall whispers to Artifice "what's with him?"
<Ytsejam> That will happen, why?
<Awol> my processor's not thinking as fast as my feet.  sorry everyone.
<Artifice> Got me Admiral
<Waitstate> Ah
<Waitstate> Drunk?
<Stardrive> I lost all this stuff in subspace... 
* Awol finds a seat and tries to resume composure
* Stardrive shows him an armful
<Ytsejam> it tends to happen when the containment field gets weak
<Awol> me, drunk?  heh, you kidding! 
* Admiral-Lilwall continues to look over apps with Artifice, leaving Wait to talk with AWOL
<Stardrive> Look at this data chip.  Verellian design.  I recorded it.
<Waitstate> If you aren't drunk, then what?
<Awol> I did, uh... win an awful lot of credits
<Ytsejam> Oh! Well then, please accept my apologies then. 
<Waitstate> ah ha... congratulations then, I suppose
<Admiral-Lilwall> we can't let this femme in, she thinks it's a holiday cruise
<Artifice> Heh
<Ytsejam> I've gotten behind on the labs maintenance lately
* Lightning enters the bar and has some earth oils
<Awol> I'd be happy without a care in the world... but I don't think the other players were terribly pleased.
<Ytsejam> of course! Check the rest of the lab. If you see something that's yours, please take it
<Trilana> That could take years... hehe
<Stardrive> Thanks.
<Waitstate> m-hm... you weren't cheating or anything, were you?
<Ytsejam> Sadly............ :-)
* Stardrive piles the stuff in a corner... puts it in a subspace pocket.
<Awol> well, I mean, everyone there was doing something that um.. bended the rules.. so I didn't want to do a faux pas or be the odd one out.  
* Awol cringes
<Waitstate> ahhh...
* Trilana watches one of the objects fall to the ground on the other side of the lab.
* the blue and grey robot approaches the stage where Ayreon is playing and takes aim with a huge arm cannon
<Stardrive> Maybe I'd better CARRY this stuff out.
<Awol> I might have bent the rules a little..  and been a little um.. braggish about it
<Waitstate> I take it there is an angry mob with your name on it somewhere...
* Stardrive pulls the stuff back into normal space... minus the one object.
* Awol manages a weak smile
* Stardrive sighs.
* Admiral-Lilwall looks over to AWOL, "so...what did the place do about it?"
* Ytsejam goes to a nearby terminal and begins adjusting the containment field strength 
<Stardrive> Tri... do you mind...
<Awol> well they had nothing on me.. 
<Trilana> No prob.
* Waitstate sighs at AWOL
<Awol> the guy, he was called Tromm, he was cheating too, so neither of us were going to incriminate each other.  
* Admiral-Lilwall turns his back on the group as his com unit activates. he turns back to Wait,
* Ytsejam corrects the field, and all of Stardrive's stuff pops back into the room
<Awol> but he took me aside at the end of the game.  I'd cleaned him out.  
* Waitstate listens patiently to AWOL
* Shadowpaw gives up trying to listen in on the conversation in the conference room and returns to her quarters
<Awol> he happens to know some people.  people that know me...  
<Admiral-Lilwall> I hate to interrupt boss, but Cirrus just got a msg from that Cuffs guy, he's here to speak with the council..err..us.
<blue and grey robot> YOU BASTARD!!!!!!!!
<Waitstate> gah, such bad timing...
<Waitstate> AWOL, Bottom line?
* Ayreon ducks as an enrgy blast vaporizes the wall behind him
<Awol> and my... colorful background.  I don't think I'm going to get to spend my new found wealth. 
<Admiral-Lilwall> By the time he gets to the conference room we 'could' be done here with AWOL
* Awol is surprised by interruption
<Artifice> Heh
<Artifice> Another unhappy neutral?
* Trilana transforms into starfighter mode.
<Admiral-Lilwall> so...what are you going to do with your wealth?
<Waitstate> AWOL, I advise you head back to the ship if you fear for your life. Aside from that, I don't know what to say.
<Awol> nothing, that's what I'm saying.  I'm a dead bot
* Stardrive starts piling stuff into Tri's cargo hold and cockpit.
* Lightning puts on some war music in the bar
<Ayreon> ELECTRA! STOP! PLEASE!
* Electra fires again
<Admiral-Lilwall> Err...Wait, another msg from Cuffs...he'll be delayed, a fight broke out in a bar and he's been called there....interesting part is the fight involves one our members
<Waitstate> Geez! Who?!
* Stardrive wanders about the lab, totally oblivious of the problems in realspace.
<Admiral-Lilwall> Didn't say...
<Admiral-Lilwall> buuuuuuut
<Admiral-Lilwall> the computer is reading everyone except Ayreon onboard
* Artifice enters the bar
* Ayreon tackles Electra to keep her for annihilating the bar
<Artifice> What's going on here?
<Awol> the Sweeps are going to liquidate my assetts, Tromm told Cyclonus where I was..  
<Awol> this is a bad time obviously... you go handle the problem on planet.  I'll pack my things
<Admiral-Lilwall> you're leaving?  ugh
<Waitstate> Slag, AWOL. You got the 'Cons on your tail?
* Admiral-Lilwall to Dark Force, locate and assist Ayreon
* Stardrive finds more lost stuff to pile into Trilana.
* Ayreon restrains Electra
<Trilana> You have too much stuff, Starry.
<Awol> you want the 'cons to turn the Freedom into a piece of floating slag?... I don't want that
<Ayreon> STOP! PLEASE! Will you just calm down!
<Waitstate> niether do I
<Stardrive> This is just the stuff I lost.
<Electra> YOu stupid son of a bitch! LET ME GO!
<Admiral-Lilwall> We can handle Decepticons if it comes down to it AWOL, we have before
<Waitstate> we have at that
<Admiral-Lilwall> we can protect you
<Waitstate> *turns back to AWOL* if you want
<Awol> Cyclonus is Galvatrons right hand...  he has a problem with me, and stuff I know.  
<Scamp> What is going on here?
* Cuffs enters bar scene and approaches the two scuffling "Both of you stand down or I will fire!"
* Electra pulls an arm free and fires on Cuffs
<Waitstate> We are ready to protect all of our members, if they need it
* Cuffs dives to the side
<Awol> I can't dump my problems on other people.  I appreciate the support, Lilwall. I don't want to sound ungrateful.
<Electra> Stay out of this!
<Ayreon> STOP!
* Cuffs fires stun beams at the pair
* Stardrive fills Tri to capacity
<Stardrive> Ok, let's go back.
<Awol> the Freedom and Lonac has been a safe haven for me.  But one thing leads to another, and pretty soon my problem would be Lonac's problem.  It's better if I lead them off.
<Stardrive> We'll worry about the rest later.
* Ayreon throws Electra to the side and takes the full force of the shot
<Trilana> The REST!?!?!
<Cuffs> You brawling in my district makes it my business, now stand down
<Electra> AYREON!! *to Cuffs* You ASSHOLE!!
* Stardrive and Tri return to realspace.
<Waitstate> If you insist AWOL, but we ARE ready to help
* Electra fires on Cuffs again
<Cuffs> talk to him about it ma'am, he saved your tail
* Awol stands
* Cuffs takes the hit in the shoulder, spinning to ground and fires at Electra again
* Stardrive and Tri dump the stuff off.
<Scamp> We could use someone like Cuffs in LONAC
<Awol> I don't know why I'm so surprised... I knew my past would catch up with me sooner or later
* Waitstate stands as well
<Scamp> For a bunch of do-nothing neutrals, tend to get rowdy
<Waitstate> It's been good having you among us. Our doors are always open for you if you decide to return :)
* Waitstate holds out his hand
* Stardrive enters the room.
<Awol> thank you.  
* Cuffs regains his feet as other security officers arrive
<Stardrive> I'm back Wait.
* Awol takes hand and shakes sadly
<Stardrive> Did I miss anything?
<Admiral-Lilwall> Good Luck to you AWOL, should you ever need help, you can call us
<Stardrive> Or just the usual?
* Waitstate watches AWOL leave, turns to SD
<Awol> I wish we could have got to know each other better Lil.  
<Waitstate> *sigh* yeah... the usual
* A blue and orange robot enters the bar and helps to restrain Electra
* Awol goes to doors
<Stardrive> *grumbling*  Nothing exciting ever happens on these recruitment stops.
* Awol turns back to others
<Electra> Appartion?! Let me go!!
<Awol> I'll pack my things.  I'll let you know before I head out.
* Cuffs turns to Electra when she is held down enough and stuns her "I'm sorry Ma'am, but this is for the good of everyone you just endangered"
<Artifice> Heh, if a shoot out isn't exciting, I don't know what is : )
<Waitstate> Thanks AWOL
<Stardrive> Awol's leaving?
<Appartion> Calm down Electra, please!
* Awol leaves
* Admiral-Lilwall nods to AWOL
<Waitstate> AWOL has left
<Waitstate> :(
<Stardrive> When did he arrive?
<Artifice> LONAC?
* Ayreon rolls around on the floor
<Admiral-Lilwall> There's time to be sad later guy, we should make a run for Ayreon and see what the blazes he's done now
<Stardrive> No one tells me anything...
<Waitstate> Damn! I forgot about him!
* Admiral-Lilwall leaves the room and makes for the bar where ayreon is
<Stardrive> Ayreon?  Now what's he gotten himself into?
* Waitstate runs after Lil
<Stardrive> Attacked by music lovers trying to stop him from playing anymore?
* Shadowpaw heads back to the conference room (walking around in circles...) to see Wait running after Lil
* Admiral-Lilwall transforms to space fighter mode and heads for the bar
* Stardrive follows Wait.
<Shadowpaw> Wait! HEY WAIT!
* Waitstate follows in jet mode
* Stardrive transforms and follows.
* Cuffs crouches besides Ayreon "Do not try to move, it makes the effects of the stun worse"
* Shadowpaw watches as Lil, followed by Wait, followed by SD, flies off.
<Shadowpaw> Damnit!
<Appartion> I thinks she's calmed down now
<Ayreon> oooowwwwww
* Shadowpaw shakes her head and transforms before running off after SD
<Cuffs> Everyone stand back and give me room, this area is to be kept clear at all times, no one leaves and no one comes in. *looking at the other security team*  seal off the building
* Admiral-Lilwall arrives at the bar and is stopped from entering by guards
* Waitstate walks up to the door
<Waitstate> Excuse me. One of my people is in there
<Scamp> What took you guys so long to get down here?
<Apparition> Can you release her to my custody?
<Dark_Force> These guards won't let us in
* Waitstate raises his voice
* Ayreon tries to lay still, but goes into convulsions
* Stardrive arrives at the bar and catches up to Wait.
<Waitstate> Excuse me! One of my people is in there!
<Ayreon> ARGH!!!!!
<Waitstate> Let me by!
* Dark Star punches the guard
<Admiral-Lilwall> Wait look, that's Cuffs he'll get us in
<Dark_Star> Let us in
* Ayreon falls still, his red eyes turning bright blue
* Cuffs turns to Dark Star "you will leave and your friends outside will enter, understood?"
* Admiral-Lilwall turns to Wait, "definitely likes his job"
<Dark_Star> I shall leave
<Waitstate> excuse me... I'm responsible for at least on person inside there. Let me in
<Apparition> Oh SLAG! Ayreon!!
* Waitstate pushes his way past some guards
* Waitstate runs inside
* Apparition tosses aside the guard over Ayreon and begins checking him
* Shadowpaw sees SD outside the bar and tries to stop and ends up crashing into him
<Waitstate> Ayr?
<Cuffs> *to Apparition** My stun weapon does not effect any other transformer like this, what is wrong with him?
<Stardrive> Doh!
* Admiral-Lilwall enters also
<Waitstate> Oh slag...
* Waitstate activates his comm
<Apparition> Ayreon! Speak to me! COME ON! SPEAK TO ME!!!
<Shadowpaw> Oops... Sorry, Stardrive

<Apparition> [comm to Ytsejam] Ytse! Get down to the bar! NOW! Ayreon is here! He's hurt! Bad!!
<Waitstate> Ayreon? Can you hear me?
<Waitstate> Ayr?
* Ayreon does not respond
<Waitstate> damn it...
* Stardrive looks at Ayreon.
* Admiral-Lilwall approaches Cuffs, "Cuffs, I'm Admiral Lilwall, we spoke earlier via comm about your LONAC submission. Tell me what happened here"
<Ytsejam> [comm to Apparition] On my way!
* Stardrive signals Medical Emergency to Restore.
<Waitstate> *looks to Apparition* you seem to know him... help me get him disconnected from that body of his
<Apparition> Damnit! What did you do to him?!
* Restore arrives with Ytsejam "Move it bots, medic is here"
<Scamp> we wouldn't have this problem if Ayreon wasn't a disgusting fleshling
* Apparition attempts to manually release Ayreon from his body
* Waitstate assists
<Cuffs> Big and blue there tried to kill him. I went to stun her when your friend knocked her out of the way and took the blast for her
* the attempts fail
<Scamp> Such heroic nonsense
* Waitstate retries the sequence
<Restore> *quickly scans then disconnects the head from the body of Ayreon*
<Apparition> SLAG! Ayreon! Come on 'bot! 
* Shadowpaw looks over Wait's shoulder at Ayreon
* Stardrive tries sonic vibrations to loosen the release.
* Ytsejam arrives to the bar and enters
<Restore> I'll try to revive him , he must transform and get out of the exosuit
<Artifice> Someone shouldn't die over such a trivial thing
<Ytsejam> Move people, I need some room here
* Ytsejam watches as Restore fumbles around with Ayreon's systems
<Restore> I don't have the equipment here I need, Ytsejam?
<Ytsejam> I've got it. I designed this set up

* Ayreon begins breathing again
<Restore> I recommend we get him back to the ship immediatly
<Stardrive> He's breathing!
* Waitstate lurches over to Restore and co.
<Waitstate> Ayr!

<Ayreon> *to Wait* Do you know anything about human annotomy?
<Waitstate> A great deal, actually
<Stardrive> Junk!  These are some of the galaxy's most prized possessions...
* Stardrive starts collecting his stuff from around the room.
<Electra> ...............damn........
* Dark_Force enters the emergency room
<Ytsejam> Then please assist me
<Cuffs> if you were outside and this happened I may not care as much, but you endangered innocents. Guards, take her to holding cell 1-1-delta
* Waitstate steps up to the table
<Ytsejam> *to restore* and keep YOUR mouth shut!
* Ytsejam engages a small bio bed around Ayreon
<Restore> bite it Ytsejam, he's my friend too. and btw, while you yelled at me you failed to notice  his lungs have collapsed
* A slight ripple goes unnoticed in a corner
<Ytsejam> His nervous system seems OK. His brainwaves were scattered
<Admiral-Lilwall> Well Cuffs, just to let you know you are under serious consideration for joining LONAC

<Cuffs> I'm glad to hear that. If you'll excuse me I must attend to this matter
<Ytsejam> Apparition, can you please reteive Ayr's body?
<Apparition> What am I, a dogbot?
<Ytsejam> Please Apparition, not now
<Apparition> OK, OK. I'll be back
<Waitstate> {Whoa... critical failiure in the autonomic system!}
<Restore> Details later Wait. he should be ok, but we do need his body
* Apparition leaves the room
<Restore> ok scratch that
<Ytsejam> SHIT! What happened?
<Waitstate> {His heartbeat is fluctuating wildly}
<Ytsejam> Computer, begin life support
* A slight ripple goes unnoticed in a corner, again 
* Admiral-Lilwall nods to Cuffs then sees Ayreon's body, "Lil to Wait, hate to interrupt, but will you lot be needing Ayreon's body?"
<Restore> trying to stablise
<Moon_Shadow> *Thinking* So disaster strikes the upstarts... interesting.
<Waitstate> {The neural connections in his lower brain collapsed!}
* Dark_Star continues to observe
<Waitstate> [Comm] We probably will, yeah
<Ytsejam> he's on full life support
<Admiral-Lilwall> [comm] then I'm on my way with it... er... him... whatever
<Restore> which will give us more time to repair the damages. How did this happen Wait?
<Ytsejam> Tell him I have someone coming to get it
<Waitstate> {life support is stable}
<Ytsejam> Someone said he was stunned?
<Waitstate> {Damage from the fight, combined with sensory overload from his body}
* Admiral-Lilwall walks off from the wrecked bar and makes his way to the lab with Ayreon's body 
<Ytsejam> damn
<Ytsejam> was he hit with a null ray by chance?
<Restore> hm, which no doubt wasn't helped by that stun beam, they have strange effects on humans without this extra damage
<Ytsejam> That's what I thought
<Ytsejam> Computer, raise stasis chamber
<Waitstate> {The areas of his brain that control the Headmaster interface were overloaded. It was too much for him I guess}
<Moon_Shadow> *Thinking*  A few well placed shots could not only kill the fleshling, but the leader as well.
<Moon_Shadow> *Thinking*  But that's not my job.
* Admiral-Lilwall is met with Apparition, they both head to the lab with Ayreon's body
* a large chamber rises from the floor near the operating table
<Dark_Star> The fleshling seems to have a low tolerance for mentally controlling his body
<Dark_Star> His Cybertronian body
<Restore> Do you ever say anything positive Dark Star?
<Dark_Star> I do not recall such a case Restore
<Restore> I didn't think so
* Admiral-Lilwall enters with Apparition and Ayr's body
* Stardrive stands helplessly off to the side. With his back to Moon Shadow's cloaked form.
* Moon_Shadow continues to observe. Unseen.
* Ytsejam places Ayreon's prone body in the stasis chamber
* Waitstate jacks out
<Ytsejam> Waitstate, activate the chamber's nanites please
* Waitstate jacks into the Stasis chamber
<Waitstate> {one moment... got it}
<Waitstate> {nanites on}
<Waitstate> {Doing what, I have no idea}
<Dark_Star> How do you put a fleshling in stasis?
<Dark_Star> How do you revive him?
<Ytsejam> Its a more advanced version of his headmaster stasis systems
<Dark_Star> So he is in a constant state of stasis?
<Ytsejam> the nanites can perform surgery from inside him. 
<Ytsejam> yes
<Dark_Star> Can he still function outside of his shell?
* Stardrive can't do anything... feels useless.
<Dark_Star> As a fleshinling with no Cybertronina enhancements?
<Ytsejam> You don't know much about headmasters or humans, do you?
<Dark_Star> I do not
* Ytsejam points to a desk in a nearby corner
* Stardrive turns around to leave, sees another one of his items on a shelf in a corner.
* Waitstate monitors nanites going about their pre-programmed tasks
<Ytsejam> read those datapads there
* Stardrive goes to get his item.
* Dark_Star reads
<Ytsejam> *to Waitstate* he should be stabilized here soon
<Waitstate> {Ah. Is that what the nanites are doing?}
<Moon_Shadow> *Thinking*  Oh no... can that seeker see me?
* Apparition brings Ayreon's robot body to Ytsejam "What do you want me to do with this?*
<Moon_Shadow> *Thinking*  He's heading this way!
<Ytsejam> Set it on the operating table please
* Apparition does so, then approaches the stasis chamber
* Stardrive tries to reach for the item, but is stopped by something invisible.
* Stardrive reaches around the invisible object and gets his item.
* Stardrive walks away.
<Stardrive> I wonder what weird invention THAT was...
* Moon_Shadow *Thinking*  That was a close one.
* Stardrive can't do anything useful...
* Stardrive leaves the lab.
<Waitstate> {Uhh... is the nanite poulation supposed to be decreasing?}
* Stardrive re-enters normal space.
