[ The video clicks on to Freddie, frowning at the camera, still dressed for winter, black beanie hat perched on her head. Frown on her face, she gives the camera a small nod, trying not to show just how freaked out she is.

Because spoilers: Freddie's pretty freaked out. ]

I've just got two questions. [ for now, at least. ] One, what's this nonsense about super powers? And two... [ now her expression changes to something that's purely 'I can't believe this shit.' ] who knows anything about dogs?

It's not messy. [ it is, in fact, a very tidy hangar. even if that's not what she's implying in terms of living arrangements. ] That's not the problem, it's just --

[ Definitely progress!! ]

[redhairring]

I'm sorry, twenty two what?

[ because what ]

[ The video feed flicks on, and for a moment there is just one red shining light filling the frame. It pulls back once Thundercracker has made sure it's on, and the light fades into something that's more eye shaped, and that into a large metallic face. ]

Twenty two feet of living metal.

So uh. Meeting up isn't going to work out.

[ But he appreciates the whistle and the 'impressive', he really does. ]

Yes I do.

Mind giving me your address or am I going to have to do some detective work? [ which will consist of asking people 'hey, seen any twenty foot robots around? ]

You're going to have to find out for yourself.

[ HANGING UP!!! She'll get no further help from him, but luckily he's easy enough to find. ]
