[So a pillar's been taking residence in the Haven? Most would find this weird, or even...an intruder. Most would be suspicious that it's what's been causing all the trouble around there. The key word here is...most.

The feed clicks on, and shows Wheeljack actually up an about! Seems like Solus's boon did quite a lot for him--his arm seems to be functioning well, after all. His back is turned for the moment, digging in what looks to be the junkpile, pulling out a bunch of wires and metal and tossing them into a pile next to himself.

What were they for?

Who knows--oh wait, he turns around.]

So I've been thinkin'--

[And already we see something's terribly, terribly wrong. The facemask has been pulled over Wheeljack's mouth. Usually, this is only for battle, but Wheeljack seems to have...taken a liking to it? For now? And let's not get started on those audials. At the very sound of his voice, they seem to blink like a bad neon sign, at almost every syllable.

That's not annoying.]

With all this junk in the junkpile, I'm thinkin we just need to spruce up somma our equipment, if ya get what I'm sayin'. I don't have much, but I think I got just enough to get a flux capacitor implemented in our own frames!

Just imagine, time travel to any point! Then we could REALLY see how we got to this place. If only I had a proper lab, this would be a whole lot easier. Any ideas?

Oh yeah, that pillar's lookin' pretty weird too.

[What the fuck just happened.]

.... Wheeljack?

[He does look similar enough to be an alternate of the one Skyfire knows, in any case. Not to mention he sounds pretty much exactly the same.]

I'm Skyfire - and I'm also from a different reality, it seems. But, anyway, the important part is that I do have access to a lab. And to a drone that seems to answer to me.

For some reason.

[While back in the day Wheeljack may have known Perceptor, Skyfire's a little bit fuzzier to remember. But he won't let that keep him from making an introduction!]

Heh, the one and only! I take it ya've heard of me.

What do ya mean different realities? We talkin...other worlds here? Parallel dimensions?

...Oh boy. Sounds like I got more on my plate than I thought.

Well, I know a Wheeljack, from where I come from.

[He grins just a little, but it doesn't look too happy.]

Parallel dimensions, yes, or so I've heard. I'm not sure I understand it completely yet, either. I've only been around for a few days.

Same here, buddy. Only enough to scout out the place. See what I'm workin' with here!

[He'd give one in return, if he wasn't masked.]

Well I hope it's on good terms! I see that Autobot logo, though, and that seems good enough to me.

It's definitely on good terms! We're both part of the science team.

No kiddin!

Well since you've got a knack for science, how about givin' me a hand with all this stuff?

I'd love that. Where are you? I'll fly over there and meet you.

Junkpile, if you're nearby.

I'm tellin ya, I seem to have a knack for findin' just what I need. It's like magic!

That'll definitely come in handy. I'll be there soon!

((OOC: Action? =D))

[When Skyfire happens upon the junkpile, it's not hard to find the bot. Just look for the jigging amounts of trash falling in an avalanche-form at the base of--yep. There he is.

And he's talking to himself. Mainly all the things he wants to build and how to do it.]

[He's definitely easy to spot, and more than a little familiar. Skyfire can't help but grin a little as he approaches.]

Hey there.

[And Wheeljack turns around, only to look--up. And up. And....up.]

Whoa, you're a big fella, huh.

Way big.

Ah, well... it sort of comes with being a shuttle, you see.

A shuttle? We talkin...capable off launchin' guys like us outta orbit?

Didn't think any Autobots with wings were left standin', no matter what universe.

There aren't many in my universe either, truth be told. I'm something of an outlier.

Hey, an Autobot's an Autobot, right?

No shame in that.

[A blink.]

I'd shake your hand but ya might have to lie down for it to work.

[He laughs at that, and leans down with a hand extended.]

Can do.

[And it's taken with vigor, shaking it firmly.]

Honor to meetcha, Skyfire! You know who I am, so with our introductions outta the way, let's talk science!

[That hand retreats, setting itself onto his hips as he looks around.]

We need ta find some wirin', first off.

[He nods, determined. And then he crouches down to get a better look at the junkpile because otherwhise this will be pretty difficult.]

Any kind in particular?

At this point, anythin'.

Better not to dismiss somethin when we can sort through it later.

[And as luck would have it, he reaches into a pile, pulling out a cluster of different coloured wires.

Wheeljack, you got the touch.]

... well. That was impressive.

[Or lucky. Who knows.]

I'm tellin ya! It's been like that all day!

I just reach in...

[See, hand go into pile of junk--]

And pull!

[Ta da! More wires!]
