[It didn't take long for Hannibal to figure out the network on his tablet. By now he had explored part of the city, and he's ready to find a job like Graham Baker recommended him. Not having had the chance to meet Pinoko yet, he decides to take advantage of the communication system here.]

Good afternoon, my name is Hannibal Lecter, and I recently arrived to the city. I was told in the briefing about the necessity of getting a job. My abilities lie in the medical field, and he suggested I contact Ms. Pinoko to see what kind of training I would need to take to be able to start working. I can only hope she will see this message.

Additionally, once I'm cleared to work as a doctor, I will be offering you my services as a psychiatrist. If you feel therapy would help you with any problems you have, feel free to contact me. I will do what is in my hands to help you.

[He smiles briefly, nods as a farewell and then turns off the feed.]

Yeah, well, that's just the nice kind of guys Autobots are.

[Now you know, so you can hate them too.]

[The only people he hates are the men who killed his sister when she was a child. And rude people.]

Yes, I understand why you hate them.

[For the record Deadlock's only rude to people who suck. ]

And then they're here prancing around like they're fraggin' important.

[Gripe gripe gripe.]

[And that's a very subjective definition, according to Hannibal. Not that he could actually use his standard form of punishment on a robot.]

Hmmm... I would be interested to see that. Out of curiosity, of course. As an outsider to your... species, I can't pass judgement until I've seen both sides.

Hngh.

[Fair enough. Not that Deadlock's a huge fan of fairness. But in this case, he's pretty sure he's right.]

See for yourself, then. They killed more of my kind than I ever did.

I see... [Now that is certainly an interesting piece of information. Not to mention, can robots be killed?]

Does killing your kind have to do with this spark you mentioned?

[Now this is a topic he can get into.]

Yeah, I mean that's one way. Basically just gotta find a way to break Rossum's Trinity. So, you know, brain module works, too.

[If you're into that. He can be.]

[He's not that much into mechanics, or cybernetics. Or whatever field of knowledge is required to fully understand Autobots and all.]

I still need to learn much about your people.

Eh. We're just people. Been killing each other for a few million years.

A few million years is quite a long time.

[He wonders what kind of history Deadlock's world has.]

Tell me about it. We would've won the war by now if some people in fraggin' high places weren't so squeamish.

Sometimes harsh decisions must be made to win a war. But those who are in high places end up regretting a decision more often than not, either for taking action or for not taking action.

Regret is for cowards. They don't want to risk losing, so they don't do anything. How you win a war when you never fight?

Quite impossible. [What a mediocre bunch.] Those who do not risk can never hope to win.

[See? Deadlock knew you were smart.]

Exactly. That's what I kept telling them. Hnf. They tried to kill me for it.

[How dare they. Just. How.]

[Of course he is, often he's the smartest person in the room.]

It is no wonder those other people [robots] have the upper hand.
