[This was… new. The titanium bot hadn’t yet made the connection to the strange place he’d been before, given the trees nearby. Just giving them an uncertain look as he tugged thoughtfully on the brim of his hat, huffing a cloud of steam.]

When I said I was in the mood for somethin’ interesting happening today, this wasn’t quite what I had in mind buddy.

[Flashing the drone a faint grin as he said this, turning from the woods to head towards the buildings nearby, figuring that would be a better chance for finding his siblings, if either of them had come along for the ride. Pausing, a slight sway to his stance as his balance adjusted, gaze skipping back towards the drone with a thoughtful look.]

You wouldn’t know if Rabbit or Hatchy showed up here too, would you?

[Anyone in the northwest sector of Haven might spy the small bot wandering, his drone dutifully tagging along. He didn't seem overly worried, more curious about his surroundings then anything as he explored his new surroundings. Really it could be worse. The drone could have mustard and sombreros.]

Good to meet you Breakdown, I'm The Spine.

[She shakes her head. She’s certainly not home.] Several months. I dunno how long for sure.

Huh. So this place likes to grab folk long-term then is what I'm gettin'.

She okay? And you willing to elaborate on this rift if I ask nice?

[cos what the f--k, friend]

Oh she's fine. Dealing with culture shock but apparently she spent most of the time playing checkers with a sentient coat-rack and a lobstaur in a pocket dimension that we think was somewhere around Bip given the strawberry sherbet that would leak in on occasion.

As for the rift no one's sure why it opens, it just shows up on occasion, kinda like the one in the coat closet. But that one usually just spits poker chips and flamingos at folk with out-of-style coats.

[This is legit a thing, Sam.]

The Spine, huh. Interesting name. [Do you get that often? Breakdown has no tact, sorry.]

So where you from originally?

I...guess so? I don’t know if there’s a way to leave or not...

[Just every day he doesn't even notice anymore.]

Earth. San Diego California to be exact.

Well it's okay kiddo, I'm sure everything'll work out.

Earth, huh? Been there once, not to that area...I don’t think.

[Little smile.] I’m not so sure sometimes, but....but other times, this place is really neat.

[Is it? Is it really?]

You seem nice enough but I still gotta ask [no really no auras over video so asking is her only option] if you're shitting me, man.

[It's cool either way cause she's too amused to be annoyed if the answer is yes.]

[Glad that the steam-driven mini-bot trusted him enough to be picked up so easily, TC does indeed bring him up to a comfortable level for both of them, even as he turns to start heading for the nearest gate.]

Heh . . . new for you and me, but not new for Cybertron, no, believe it or not.

What's the last thing you remember? What was the last big thing that happened before we lost you?

[So he knows where to begin...]

Yeah? It's not a bad area, really nice if you're visiting.

Isn't that always the way with adventures?

[He'd been expecting that question clearly, if the soft laugh it earns is any hint.]

Sometimes I think life would be easier if I was, but nope.

[He kind of shrugs.] Yeah, didn't really get much time to...visit when I was there. We were searching for energon. [And dark energon, but still...]

[Her smile grows a little.] It kind of is an adventure, huh? Not quite like the stories Papa used to read, but still...

It wasn't too long after the weird energon messin' with everyone. [Dust bunnies.

Trust sure, but he also knew he was strong enough that if for some bizarre reason Thundercracker decided to try and squish him he'd be able to get out of it.]

Looks pretty clear I've missed a lot, haven't I?

Fair enough. Well if you do get the chance, take a look around, there's a lot to be seen and it's kinda relaxing if you let it be.

That just means you'll have a story that no one else will have ever heard when all's said and done, yeah?

More than you know.

Slag went down seven ways to New Year, Unicron the Chaos-Bringer finally made his appearance, we nearly lost the war, Primus finally showed up and not only beat back Unicron but pretty much jumpstarted the planet. The First-Forged thought we'd won once and for all and were finally willing to send us all back to our home, those of us who wanted to go. Everyone gathered in the center of the city under the Lambda, those who were going and those who were there to say goodbye . . . but when the First-Forged went to do . . . whatever it was they were doing with the Lambda, there was a massive explosion. Several of us go thrown several hundred years into the future. We . . . don't know what become of the others. Word is, though . . . the First-Forged are dead, and probably everyone else who didn't get slingshot here. Or..."now", I guess I should say.

There's more to it all, but any more than that all at once might fry your processor.

[Just because it's SO. MUCH. to take in.]

Well, then. I could roll with ancient robo-Satan space Cthulhu, I can roll with Far Side stories, but, that said? I'd sure like to know who's telling them.

Yeah.

What about you? Have you been on adventures before?

...So what you're saying is everything ended on a happy ending and then there were enough time-shenanigans to curl Doc Brown's hair?

[It's... weird yes but his whole life is weird. His life is weird and so this is actually kinda comforting that weird things are going on.]
