Warnings: none tho will update with any if needed. i'll also match styles if u wanna do action spam instead of prose

Wandering around, Pipes couldn't help but frown at some of the buildings that had seen the worst of this Cybertron's war. It's incredibly eerie, especially having made the stunningly good decision to go on his own - he was so eager to explore he didn't really think ahead in terms of possible danger on a deserted planet - but that doesn't stop him. The Mighty and Impulsive Pipes can deal with anything he comes across! He doesn't wander too far from wherever the current inhabitants of the city are holed up, painfully aware of comms being down and dangerous Decepticons around so he shouldn't be too hard to run across; generally exploring the big, obvious buildings first hoping to find something useful or interesting.

Maybe he'll drop by the known settlements, like the medibay to see how people are doing. Maybe if he sees someone out in the street or scavenging, he'll call out to them, just a "Hey! Are you alright?" all too aware of the drama that's been going down recently. He worries, guys, he can't help it.

Honestly, Pipes hadn't really thought about June since they'd last met (he's so overwhelmed with this entire situation) until he'd found a very small roll of cloth. For what, he can't guess. Maybe a minibot half the size of him wanted a cape. Capes are pretty cool, and he'd definitely keep the cloth for himself if there was enough. There wasn't, though, so he decided to donate it. To June, maybe she could use it. He's not sure how humans work but everyone likes cloth, right? Maybe she could make a cape for herself. Fuck yeah.

Considering she'd said she was a nurse, Pipes figured she might be hanging out at the clinic, seeing to the other humans that had shown up. He hopes none of them had been hurt by the other robots. Not everyone is careful around smaller lifeforms, unfortunately.

It doesn't take him long to get to the clinic, and he saunters in, looking around.

"June? Are you in here? I found something for you!"

It's a good thing that June's already sort of accustomed to being around giant robots, because she's a little better at making sure she doesn't get stepped on. June's up on a table when Pipes comes in looking for her, sorting through a few salvaged items that she might be able to use as tools -- it's sort of unfortunate that everything here is meant for people several times her size, considering it doesn't leave her a lot of options. A few of the weird, organic Cybertronian fruits lay near her too, half-eaten and looking strangely large next to her.

"Pipes? Over here!"

He quickly locates the sound of her voice and makes his way over to the table.

"You said you needed a nap right?" Pipes that was like a month ago. "I found something that might help!"

Pipes holds up the cloth. Hmm, June was smaller than he remembered, hopefully this isn't too much. At least the colour is nice and obnoxiously neon.

June hides a smile with her hand, eyeing the cloth. Pipes, you're too precious, stop. It's actually quite a bit of cloth, at least for someone June's size, and her face brightens as she reaches out to run her hand over it. The texture's kind of weird, a little stiff, but it's not as rough as she expected. It looks old, too, although the color certainly hasn't faded. Ah, Cybertronians.

"Where did you find this? Pipes, this is perfect."

"I've been looking around for anything that might help anyone."

Seeing as he's not a medic or a science and has limited skills beyond being a solider. He doesn't feel useless or anything, he just enjoys looking around and finding the occasional neat little tidbit.

"Have you settled in okay?"

If this bolt of cloth were a macaroni drawing, June would be hanging it up on the fridge right now. You did good, Pipes. You did good.

"That's good of you," June says warmly, rolling up the bolt of cloth to set it aside. She can think of at least a dozen things she could use it for.

"Oh, I'm getting along. I've been hanging out here, mostly. I'm hoping to set up a clinic for the humans around, too, but...we're a little short on human-sized tools."

Best mom!!

"Oh, that's a shame. I hope we can sort something out for you guys." He means it, it would be a shame for the humans to be pulled here then killed off because of something so trivial.

"I can keep an extra look out while I'm exploring if you give me a list of stuff."

BEST SON.

"I'd be happy to," June says, beaming. "Thank you, Pipes, it's sweet of you to help. But I want to hear about how you're doing. Are you all right? Getting everything you need?"

"Yes! I've found tons of interesting stuff!"

He rubs the back of his head awkwardly, going slightly pink.

"Just nothing actually useful, a hah... I'm really curious as to what happened!"

Awww, Pipes. Stop being so cute, June already loves you. She smiles, though slightly bemused.

"Well, I'm glad to hear it... What, do you think something different happened here? I thought it was the war...you know, the same war you guys always seem to have."

"Well, yeah, but Drift said this isn't our Cybertron. Whatever happened to our original one, I'm pretty sure it didn't start materializing random people on the surface..."

He's not a science. His main idea is 'magic.'
