re_alignment | [Accidental video] [Backdated to before the storm starts]

[The video starts suddenly and at an odd angle, as if someone just hit the device by accident. It shows Skyfire next to Blurr, who’s leaning against him, and they are at the bar. His table is filled with empty cubes of energon but both of them have one on their hands.

And I was talking with Blackach…no..Blacchira ..lbackarchnia…that nice spider lady the other day about how we should had a celebration because no one died or disappeared in two weeks and now this happens _{and it’s awful because} I looked everywhere and I can’t find them and what if they are hurt^{and I am usually good at tracking} down people I did that with the decepticons back home even if It doesn’t matter here anymore but what was I saying ah yes yes Wing’s nowhere to be found and neither’s Drift and he built me a garage, Wing not Drift, even though perhaps Drift helped too…. and that was really sweet and I miss him already.

[After finding Wing’s message Blurr needed a drink, or a dozen, and some company. Jetfire tagged along with him but he underestimated the capacity of Blurr’s engine when it came to burn the fuel he drank. Since he tried to keep up with the smaller bot, they were now a little bit less sober than usual.]

I'm gonna miss them too. So many people just disappear...

[It was making him even sadder than usual. Or perhaps it was the extra energon cubes. In any case, Skyfire felt the sudden need to give Blurr a crushing hug.]

You're not going to leave too, right? I like you.

((OOC: Blue is Blurr, red is Skyfire!))

[Um . . . if he didn't know any better, he'd say you two are drunk. But you're both robots, that's not POSSIBLE . . . is it!? In any case, police-bot thinks you two look like you could use some supervision. Especially since one of you was apparently a friend of his the last time he was here. ~~Yeah, it doesn't take much to make him feel responsible for something or someone.~~]

Can I offer either you some assistance? Make sure you get home all right?

Oh, ey DECKARD, hellooo! [No, no, they are not overcharged, that would be silly. ~~Aw Deckard you worry way too much. Such good old friend.~~]

We are always argh..alrigh...fine. [Said the mech who ended crushed into a cube in his own reality, while he shares a drink with a mech that was trapped in ice for decades.] You don't have to worry.

[You know, it's probably a Really. Good. Thing. he doesn't know that about either of you. If only because it'd really kind of bother him for your sakes. =< ]

You're a little less than convincing right now, Blurr.

[He checks the other threads on this feed and sees that someone is already on his way, someone who also seems to know Blurr ~~obviously better than he does...~~]

Looks like you have a friend on the way. Stay on the line with me until he gets there?

[See, Blurr has the decency to look sheepish.] Sorry. We were _{talking and} we got carried away.

I have a friend right now, this big guy over here is Skyfire, he's really nice And big. [He points to Skyfire even though the mech's already visible in the video feed.] Have I mentioned big?

[The mech looks about the size of J-Decker or Super Build Tiger. He nods with a small grin.]

You did, yes. I'm glad you have such a friend, Blurr.

So . . . tell me this if you're not too wasted... . . . how is it you're able to . . . ah . . . what is it that's affected you like this?

Yesareallygoodfriend. You should be his friend too.

Hm....[Blurr tilts his head, clearly thinking. It takes him longer than usual.]

...

Who are we talking about?

. . . your friend Skyfire. The one sitting next to you.

And how it is that robots can get drunk.

[Because holy CRAP what the hell, Blurr...]

Oh yes, him. A great guy!

Imnotdrunskjustateenietinybitocvercharged...difference!

Uh..you never got overcharged?

[The rapid-fire ramble gets a small grin from Deckard, despite the concern. Then he shakes his head.]

No, I haven't. We don't have that kind of, ah, capacity on Earth. Skyfire says it requires something called "high grade"?

[Blurr's easily excitable when he's drunk.]

No? But..what did you drink to survive back on earth? DID you have your engine upgraded to survive here? You could come to the bar and try the energon, I'm sure you'll like it.

We run –ran –on gasoline. And yes, I had my engine upgraded. Barricade took care of that for me.

Thank you for the invitation, Blurr. Maybe another time. [When you're not quite so smashed yourself already…]

I'm _{glad to hear} that. Hm...A barricade...[Blurr looks away, his optics getting brighter.] I should pay him a visit later...

If you are sure...but one day, yes?

Yes, one day.

[He'll just have to be really careful.]

We're okaaay. [Look, he's smiling and everything.]

No drinking and flying. I know.

[Blurr's reassured him a little. A friend of Blurr's being on the way to you two has reassured him even more. Still, he's just going to try to keep you on the line until that other robot gets there, just in case.]

[He offers a grin and nod of greeting.]

That's good. My name is Deckard, by the way. I'm pleased to meet you.

So . . . will you answer me a question? How is it that a robot is able to . . . "drink"? To get inebriated?

I'm Skyfire!

[He waves at the video and all. Someone's more than a little enthusiastic.]

Weeell, it's not that easy to explain and I think it varies depending on realities, but... basically you need high grade. A lot of high grade in my case. I didn't think this could happen but Blurr is faster than I thought.

[Yup. That made total sense.]

[Clear as mud, yes, thank you. Erf...]

High grade? So it's a particular substance that can affect your systems like this?

[Remind him to try again when he's sober.]

Right! And you need a lot of it. Well, I need a lot it, because I'm big. I didn't think I'd drink this much...

I see. And how long does it take for the effects to wear off?

[He can only assume they do, after all. Or he /hopes/ they do!]

It should be over tomorrow. I hope. I was never this overcharged before...

I see.

If I can help at all, let me know?

Of course.

[...] You're really nice, you know.
