Part 3 goes too Hook

For those of you who don't know PNN, Private News Network, his Army slang for Gossip
~~~
“So then, I heard Soundwave found them in the storage closet” Thrust said to Ramjet as the Coneheads stood around waiting for Dirges repairs

“No way!”

Hook frowned listening as he worked.

Scuttlebutt, rumors, the Private News Network, not mattered what you called it it was all gossip. Hook didn’t really care, he was clearly above it. Yet all of it always seemed to get around to him. Normally like this a couple of Mechs standing around with nothing better to do so they talked. Sometimes its was his fellow Constructicons, who talked while they were avoiding work. Occasionally it was Skywarp who’d pop in hoping to find a large crowd of some kind. Oh so rarely a mech with some real brass would come and ask him directly to confirm some humiliating reason why someone came to the medbay. Hook of course never confirmed anything like that, unless the order came straight from Megatron standing right in front of him. He liked to think he had some standards and not divulging medical records was one them. But the only ones who got more of the rumors faster were Soundwave and his grimlins.

“Had his arm all the way in—“

“There you are finished.” Hook cut in as he closed Dirge’s cockpit “Do not lay on you right side and no flying for three days”

Dirge sat up and started to protest but was quickly dragged off by his trine

“Then Reflector totally got that part on film, I saw the pictures and everything!” Thrust continued with his tales

Hook listened for a moment longer before shacking his head. He was better than that. So instead he decided to spend this rare moment of peace reading.

That was until Skywarp teleported in with a “VOP” before he could even get to his office. And even though the seeker just found the medic he was still excited and had to spread the latest news “You’ll never guess who just got caught sucking spike in the wash rack!”

Ok, maybe Hook wasn’t better than this

“Who?”
