[VIDEO accidentally on purpose]

[automobileenthusiast]

[Why hello there folks, I hope you like staring at the backs of people's heads because THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE DOING. It takes this little red mech a few seconds to realize that there's SOMETHING hovering behind him. he does this little half turn, lets out a SUPER MANLY (no) yelp and swats the thing out of the air, ending the recording.

But that's not all, folks. The camera blips on and off a few more times, catching Knock Out in various levels of annoyance, usually in the middle of either swearing or trying to shoo the thing away. Oh god little drone why are you here.

Finally Knock Out gives up and seems to have just accepted that he's made a new "friend". He looks exasperated as all hell when the little bugger starts recording him one last time.]

Fine, since this little drone seems hell bent on stalking me and recording it, I figured I might as well try to use this to my advantage. So, where am I and how do I leave? I was kind of in the middle of something.

[Knock Out pauses and glances slightly off camera, presumable at the drone itself.]

There, happy now? I swear, if someone come out here to blow me up because of you, I'm going to be very annoyed.

I've seen Cybertron. Hell, I was with you on Cybertron, and it didn't look anything like this! I've never seen this place before in my life!

I'm sorry KO ):

[neverputincharge]

Yeah, of course not.

[That's muttered bitterly. Nobody ever remembers being here when they come back anymore except for a couple exceptions. It's a moment before he speaks up again.]

Yeah, well. I can confirm this is a Cybertron, and yeah it can support organic life thanks to one of the Guardians. You were brought here by the Miasma, if you saw a mist nearby, that's what brought you. And more absurd soundin', it's controlled by Unicron himself.

ITS OK BRO

[automobileenthusiast]

[He's about to snark off at Bulkhead BUT he's cut short when the big dude finally speaks again.]

Unicron. As in... as in Unicron. You're serious?

[neverputincharge]

[Yeah, good thing he cut him off.]

Yeah Unicron. Dead seriously. Slagger's been causin' this world issues for as long as I've been here.

[automobileenthusiast]

[YEP GOOD THING]

As long as you've been here. And just how long would that be?

[neverputincharge]

[Brain break time?]

.....two years.

[automobileenthusiast]

[MY BRAAAAAIN]

But I just saw you!

[neverputincharge]

What's the last thing you remember before wakin' up here?

[automobileenthusiast]

Weeeeell, I left the Decepticons kind of on a whim, and then there were the zombies, and ah. Optimus Prime kind of saved the entire planet. And then I was here.

[neverputincharge]

Yeah....sounds like the same time I remember back home too. I got a lot of history here, though.

[automobileenthusiast]

This whole situation is so illogical, it would make Shockwave's goofy looking cyclops head explode.

[neverputincharge]

You don't know the half of the weirdness this world can throw at us. Time works differently here too, too. Why you never knew I was gone, like how Breakdown is from a fight a long time ago.

[Yeah, it makes more sense if you've been here. He frowns a little.]

If you can believe it, I met the First Forged. Worked under Solus Prime herself for half a year at least.

...but they didn't make it to this Haven apparently.

OH GOOD ITALICS GO ME AND MY HTML FAILURE

[automobileenthusiast]

[Hmm well then.]

...And you're sure you're not some kind of elaborate hallucination I'm having?

STOP EMPHASIZING STUFF, KO.

[neverputincharge]

Positive.

[He ducks his head and looks away. He feels bad saying this, but KO ought to know, right?]

....as positive as I am about how much this hurts. You were there too, for alot of the stuff that went on. Now....you don't remember.

[You were the last one from his world left with him, when everybody else had disappeared. This is like a slap in the face.]

WOW I KEEP ITALIXCS FAILING

[automobileenthusiast]

Well I- sorry? I can't exactly help it! Were we friends or something?

[HE KINDA FEELS BAD AND HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHY]

STOP THAT

[neverputincharge]

Yeah, I know. [...were they friends? Sort of kind of. They'd gone to the core to fight off demon spawn scraplets and fix it for Primus.]

...you...were the only other bot from my world left, after everyone else disappeared that had been on this world. We were sort of friends, having fought together among other things against Unicron.

IM SORYYYYYY

[automobileenthusiast]

Oh.

Well.

Huh.

[Yeah he has literally no idea how to respond to this.]

I kind of actually feel bad for not remembering this stuff. This is so bizarre.

[neverputincharge]

[He just sigh, long suffering sigh of somebody that's been through this time and time again.]

Yeah, something to get used to. I've learned to not get too attatched to new people.

[automobileenthusiast]

Oh, that's actually really depressing! I don't think I like this set up at all!

[neverputincharge]

[He snorts.]

Get comfortable, Knock Out, you'll be here a while. Just like the rest of us.

[automobileenthusiast]

Right, I... suppose I'll just make myself comfortable.

[neverputincharge]

You got any questions about this place? [Or, well, anymore questions.]

[automobileenthusiast]

Several, but. You know what, I'll just write you a list for later.
