"Sir!" He put down the Forge, kneeling beside Optimus. If it wasn't clear Optimus was running fumes before, this was certainly an undeniable sign. Magnus was worried, he wasn't even trying to hide that anymore. He glanced up, taking stock of how far they were from Ratchet's ship. Not too far.
"Sir, if I may." Without waiting for a response he did some quick maneuvering, managing to get one of Optimus' arms across his neck (no easy task considering). He wrapped an arm around Optimus' waist and hauled them both to their feet. He had to pause there with a hiss of pain. Standing hunched over like that supporting both of them hurt quite a lot more than he was willing to admit.
With them both standing he started groping for the handle of the Forge, picking it up as close as he could to the head to try and counter balance the weight. Not a perfect solution, but he wasn't about to leave it lying around in the middle of camp after he had just promised Optimus he would keep it safe.
