So, I tried to make things right again. But he wasn't having it. If anything, I just seemed to upset him more.

And then, he left. I'm pretty sure he isn't coming back. He didn't SAY that, but it's a hunch I have, and my hunches are usually right.

Maybe I scared him off. I have a knack for that.

Anyhow, if that's the way he wants it, I respect that. But it's going to hurt for a while. I don't think Elita One or the other femmes really understand this about me: I enjoy being in partnerships. I'm not a loner, a ronin, whatever...I very naturally seek mechs to work with. That's just how it is.

So I went out to Protihex with Deliverance, Sanguine and Halo recently. Being there was a sobering experience. I don't really remember Protihex being...well, such a terrible mess. I suppose I still had the image of it from my earlier databanks, when it still resembled a functional city. I was able to assist in the main medical facility with admitting new patients to the triage team. It felt good to be able to assist, despite having no talents in the repair department.

Going to need to meet with a real intel firebrand pretty soon...her name's Shiftlock, and apparently from what I overheard on the faction channel, she seems to be lacking processor chips for both common sense and self-preserving fear. Which is dangerous, of course, *BUT* it's interesting, and already extremely useful. She and Wraith were able to get ahold of Blast Off's tablet, and this was on her first cycle back to the base! Decepticon forces have a lot of soldiers like her, able to do these outrageously dangerous assignments. I think we're fortunate to have one now as well.

I'd better go now. Got to go pack up my other half's side of the office. Gonna miss that crazy guy and all the chaos he brought to me. Yeah, I said it. I'll miss him.
