[The feed clicks on to a very, very annoyed looking mech, standing in a beautiful mountain side.

Too bad the grumpy face ruins everything forever, why so cranky, Ratchet?]

If this is because some fragging sparkling was playing with my space bridge again, I will personally weld his hands together.

Is this still Cybertron? It's readouts appear to be so, but the landscape begs to differ.

And where the slagging pit is Iacon?

[Oooo, he just can't pass this up. What a perfect opportunity to be a troll!]

Well, if it isn't Ratchet.

[well if it isn't a dead brick zombie

Ratchet freezes at the image on the screen. Oh no. OOooooohhhh no you don't, you asshole.]

... Identify yourself.

What? You don't recognize me? Why, I'm hurt.

[Laughs] Well, if your memory is really that shoddy, Doc. Name's Breakdown.

That is not possible. Airachnid dismembered you.

So my partner says. And yet... [shrugs]

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

... Are you just talking to me to mock me.

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

[Smirks.] Why ever would I do that?

Oh yeah...and welcome to Haven, the newest city on Cybertron.

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

Faaaantastic.

Is Knock Out here?

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

Yeah. An Autobot now too. [Trying to gauge when Ratchet is from...]

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

As I am well aware, and as it should stay.

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

Well, that tells me a lot. War just end for you or been over for some time?

[What's this?! The big guy is being friendly?!]

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

It... just ended.

[what is happening]

... I suppose having your head removed rewired a few things.

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

Nah, see, that's not happened yet, not for me anyway.

[Care to chat timelines with him?]

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

[WHAT IS HAPPENING]

Hasn't... happened for you yet.

Well I guess that rules out my somehow expiring without my knowledge and being in the well.

[WHERE THERE IS NO OPTIMUS]

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

Definitely not dead, Doc.

Just pulled into some other dimension by the collective subconscious of Primus and Unicron.

[Okay, so he's still being a bit of a troll...]

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

... What.

Cybertron according to every source I've come across. Not one's made mention of any Iacon, though.

[AND NOW THERE IS A HUMAN ON CYBERTRON. W.E.L.P]

Since when was Cybertron's air breathable to humans?

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

[Smirks.]

You heard me. Don't believe me, then ask around.

And I'd stay clear of the black smokey stuff too. Bad news most the time.

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

That does not answer any questions!

Re: [video]

[a_little_red_in_the_face]

Then maybe you should ask clearer questions.

[Just be glad this one isn't one of the teenagers, but something approaching a responsible adult.]

Maybe a century and some, if word on the street is to be believed? There's been some bizarre timeline tangling on top of the terraforming. I'm sorry; I know how it sounds.

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

For the love of-

Alright, what is this 'black smokey stuff?'

Re: [video]

[hippocraticoath]

And who has been terraforming Cybertron? How did it-

It's never looked like this as long as I've been alive.

One of Haven's Guardians. Her name is Irja, and you should be able to find her at the farm in the Southwest.

...how old are you?
[sam no]
I wanna guess nine, maybe ten million...?
