medic hand maintenance

✧˖°

 

Lol

Yes, Ratchet, your servos are precious and must be cared for. 

@adhesivesandscrap I assume the servo maintenance is a bit like a hand massage, and I could see it being part of a whole medic culture thing. Having medics make a social activity out of taking care of each others servos because those servos are sensitive and medics know all the ways to make it feel good. Just imagine Drift insisting on learn the best techniques, so he can help Ratchet with making sure his joints aren’t too tight or collecting debris in difficult places. Or better yet, Ratchet falling back on this trick to calm mechs down if they’re having some sort of panic attack. Even if mechs with less sensitive servos don’t get the full effect, it would be incredibly calming.

Yaaaaasssssssss. It’s rare for non-medics or those who aren’t at least scientists to be allowed to groom a medic’s hands. Goes for any frametype and their own specialised pieces. Flightframes and their wings/turbines, racing types and their wheels/shocks/suspension, etc.

Lol I have Drift doing that in Bet My Life and it leads to their first kiss. (It’s in Chapter 11) It continues into the sequel and holy shit they’re SO CUTE.
