--top floating around and stay still!

[bonk.

guess who's got the hang of their communicator. spoilers: it's not sentinel. but there he is, in full view. not even hiding the nice neat dent and crack on his cheek.]

Ugh! Got it. Okay... recording. Great.

[COUGH. look a little dignified.] So, uh, hi, native people of this Cybertron! [awkward grin.] I don't know if you're all weird goat men, but normal Cybertronians are metal and turn into vehicles. Hi. Again. That's us.

[anyway, racism aside:]

Is anyone else from the Unicron thing here? Alive? Cause I was with Bulkhead and Drift after that giant explosion and-- just call in if you are. That's an order!

Comments

[deadlydoctor]

And you should focus on the keywords here. EX.

I'm an autobot now. [It feels so weird to say it out loud.] I have a quota of nice things to do. And I think I am supposed to give hugs as well, or something.

[primest]

Did no-one give you the talk? Or make you read the code? It doesn't count if you're only doing it for a quota. If you acted the same in the Decepticons, maybe you'd just be better off as a neutral.

[the Best Autobot himself is being a douche because he feels like shit, yes.]

shit I forgot this D8

[deadlydoctor]

There's a code? [The confusion in his voice is 100% sincere.] Neutrals never went very far in my world, Starscream tried it once and he starved to death for a whole year.

Besides it feels....good to be on the Autobots side.

[The irony is not lost to KO.]

IM OFFEND

[primest]

Yes. It's very long. And I meant neutral during peacetime, I'd imagine wartime neutrals would be shunned by both sides.

[ugh take your feelings away from him, outside and blow their head off.

but that does make him laugh.]

I'M SORRY HON, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME

[deadlydoctor]

Maybe in you world. There wasn't one on mine so I don't have to read anything. And pretty much, yes. Which only proves how absurd is to be neutral, times of peace or not.

[The autobots weren't exactly nice to Starscream either when he went neutral.

DAMN SENTINEL, HE'S HAVING A MOMENT. It only happens once in a blue moon.]

I COULDN'T

[primest]

Maybe you should try asking your world's Ultra Magnus.

[and regret it. immediately.]

GOOD ;W;

[deadlydoctor]

Oh right. I'll go do just that and then I'll go chat with Optimus and Arcee because everyone is here.

[He makes a mental note to never ever ask that to a Magnus, no matter which one.]

[primest]

Ah hah hah. Funny.

[he shrugs] Why'd you defect, anyway?

[deadlydoctor]

Have you ever talked to Starscream or Megatron? Why I didn't defect sooner is the question.

[primest]

If I had a year I couldn't explain how many things were obvious and stupid about that sentence.

[deadlydoctor]

You do have a year but you are also assuming I care about anything you might say.

[Yeah sure he does. Knock Out takes a sip of his drink.]

[primest]

Oh, good. We're on the same page.
