Initial message :

You are slumped against a stack of corroded steel crates, the left side of your body a ruin of twisted metal and torn flesh. A piece of rebar, hurled by Overlord's servo with force. He pins you to the crate, his digits enter just below the collarbone and exits through the back of the ribcage, scraping against the concrete behind you with a sound like a dragging anchor.

He expects silence. He expects the cooling of meat. Instead, he hears a wet, irritated sigh.

"Okay," you say, your voice hoarse but steady. "That’s going to be a pain to pull out."

Overlord’s helm swivels. He looks down at the wound. He watches the torn edges of your body. The blood is already drying. The steel bar is being slowly, inexorably pushed out by the regrowth of your own sternum.

He crouches. The blue light of his faceplate illuminates the smudge of dirt on your cheek and the flat, unimpressed line of your mouth.

"Fascinating," he says. He is a connoisseur of damage. He knows how long it takes a human body or a cybertronian frame to enter shock. This quiet, bored reaction in the face of catastrophic impalement is a new variable. "There is no mention of a person who can survive transfixion of the primary cardiac nexus."

He watches the way your shoulder snaps back into place with a soft click audible only to his audials. He watches the way you eventually twist your body sideways, using the crate for leverage, and simply rip yourself free with a grunt of effort, leaving a loop of viscera on the jagged end of the metal.

Within sixty seconds, the hole in your chest is a smooth patch of pink, unblemished skin.

Overlord just stares and for a long, humming moment, he is silent. The only sound is the drip of condensation from the rafters and the quiet hum of his internal energon pump.
