Episode 3.5 | Week 1 | Day 4 | Closed
Several Decepticons remained within Blackridge Hold that Megatron had yet to employ in pertinent tasks; among them, a scientist who specialized in chemistry. Thinking her a useful tool, he had arranged for a meeting early into the day today. It was under the guise of a routine inspection of her workspace, and so when Megatron approached the doorway to the smaller Cybertronian's science lab, she would be yet unaware of the scope of this visitation. Of course, the cruel irony was that Megatron did not ordinarily conduct such inspections himself unless necessary, and so one might have begun to suspect that something more was afoot from the moment of receiving such a piece of news.
If Pipette was even half as smart as her dossier made her seem, she could be statistically certain of that much. The presence of her Lord was no small matter. His footsteps would've announced his approach far ahead of his shape, which cut through the entrance with dignified and forceful motions. Having thus arrived with little preamble and fewer pleasantries, Megatron's first instinct was to take measure of the faculties.
Insufficient. How disappointing, but not unexpected.
What Pipette and the other scientists had to work with in these trying times was insulting to what the Decepticons once were, and the lack of their warship and its comforts was sorely felt once more. The sooner he got this one and others like her working in proper environs, the better for the cause—and himself. Still, he could not deny that the humble trappings had a certain air of resourcefulness to them. The appliances were almost up to standard, and Pipette clearly did her best with what she had. Megatron appreciated such qualities in his troops. Furthermore, it meant that he could put his chemical engineer to good use on future projects.
Good. Very good.
Having thus taken measure of their surroundings, he would retreat into an idle stance by the entrance. He stood tall, arms flush against the sides of his body. Should Pipette already be in attendance, his red optics would set upon her but a short moment after, and a massive hand would lift and urge her forward with a heavy, courteous wave: "Ah, my loyal scientist," he would address her with no particular intonation. The only quality that permeated his voice was the signature coarse rasp for which Megatron was known.
