There is a brief pause filled with audible clicks and thuds, followed by the slightly echoey acoustics that come from someone recording audio in a large room. "Hello hello! You've reached Dr. Velocity! Feel free to leave a message or a video or whatever here, and I'll do my very best to respond promptly! And if it this is about the stickers, Ratchet, I didn't do it! Love and love and love!"

[DESPITE THE FACT he should be on break:] Do you think it is worth trying to refine holoform activity to treat those smaller mechs quicker with the human sized tools or am I over complicating things for myself again?

Re: text un; docbot

I think that is a fabulous idea and we are absolutely definitely going to look into that because I've had thoughts about that, too! But! You are on BREAK, Rhapsodic Ratchet. I will walk all the way from my desk to your desk! Think about fun things! Turbofoxes! Candy! Radioactive staplers!

[botopsy]

I'm allowed to use my brain on my break, Velocity with the thesaurus.
I just wanted an outside opinion to know if I was wasting time trying to refine holoform skills for it.

What have your thoughts been? I can't imagine all of us will just conveniently have a holoform or one at the necessary size or skill to use one in surgery.

[tenthtimeisthecharm]

It's a wonderful idea, and no, you aren't.

And I've been thinking mainly of (FIRST) learning collaborative to help bring everybody up to similar knowledge bases, maybe (SECOND) initiating regular workshops? Not led by you, though, or at least not mainly, or you would just camp out at your desk every night. I've seen you sneaking back into the medbay after I leave!

[botopsy]

I wasn't going to volunteer. People generally have to be competent at what they're teaching before they impart knowledge to anyone else.

Gathering data on them isn't a bad idea though. I'm happy to work with you on that. Love to write academic papers.
You should see the ones I'm working on for quantum psychological treatment. They're completely insufferable.

I'm offended at the idea I sneak.
I'm an adult, I go in with no shame or attempts at subterfuge whatsoever.

[tenthtimeisthecharm]

Listen though, Revolving Ratchet, you can be obnoxious AND sneaky, I believe in you.

But yes, please, let's trade! Do you want to read my terrible papers about how matrixes will react to experiences had by cojunx and amica endura, I manage to make a really interesting topic boring as drying paint. It is the worst thing ever created by my hands and I've accidentally blown up energon before. Before school! This was before!

[botopsy]

Yes.
I don't even need to think about that.
Moreso that as far as I'm aware what I understand conjunx and amica endura bonds to be are not a thing in my reality.
So if they do actually affect the spark then I should know that.
Less so about Matrices. What the hell even with any of that mystical nonsense.

[tenthtimeisthecharm]

Oh, you'll hate it! I need to get out my bullet point drawings, but the gist is that because the sparks resonate with each other, the health of one has cascading effects on the other or others even on the microcosm! It's fascinating stuff! Like how that one other study days says your energon contains certain chemicals based upon your mood? Same thing, only worse! Or better, if your health is good, I guess...

[botopsy]

I wouldn't hate any of your work.

Fortunately there are a very limited amount of Matrix bearers around. Just the usual suspects.
I'd be interested to see if someone is here without their amica or conjunx how that would affect them.
There's being apart the way people have their own lives to life and then being apart through a whole universe or two.

[tenthtimeisthecharm]

I- Oh. You wouldn't? Are you sure? It's super boring and goes on and on and on about recreating experiences in laboratory conditions versus out of the facilities versus anecdotal evidence, and... You're sure, you're sure?

I could forward what I have to you? I had it saved on my own personal datapad from school, but I didn't have it with me so I'll basically be recreating it from memory, but it's- you're really super and positively sure?

[botopsy]

It's valuable data collated by a respected peer. Why wouldn't I?

Send it whenever you're ready.
Don't let me interrupt your work too much.
