Err, yeah- so I'm glad that's over.

[He looks a little sheepish as he rubs the back of his head.]

Also, just wanted to say sorry for any damages I...may or may not have caused to the roads a while back. Guess that includes any accidental skidding due to ice. Yeah, thank the pillar thing for that one.

So that was you?

[She shakes her helm.]

I use hover, so it didn't affect me, but the random spots of ice nowhere near Liege's were curious since we haven't had that happen before.

Yeeeaaaah... [Oh scrap, guess she probably saw the angry icy donuts then.]

Um, good to know, though.

[Maybe one or two. At least they were sort of artistic??]

Hopefully no one else drove right onto them though, but considering you didn't have much control over it, I am assuming, you could hardly be held at fault.

Even if you caused it.

[Yeah, we'll stick with that.]

I got a little frustrated about it, but I hope it didn't cause anyone else trouble.

I think someone would likely have complained about crashing from driving off an ice-slick if it had happened, especially as they were oddly placed and clearly not caused by something natural.

[She smiles, a bit dryly.]

And otherwise, you're all right?

Truuuue....

[Ahem. Eheheh, yeah- well, anyway...]

Yep, just fine!

Good. We don't need more bad things to happen than already has, at least immediately. Since doubtlessly things will happen either way.

[It seems to have a cycle at least...]

I wouldn't mind a break from things happening, but I'm sure no one would argue about that either.

Definitely not. [She chuckles a little, even if it's dry.] Since if it's not the Badlands or the Lambda, it seems to be something originating from one of us.

I'd say something about how surely it'd be more predictable if I was just dealing with the war in my reality, but from what I've heard, I'm not sure that's true.

I dunno, at least here you've nailed predictability down to three possible sources.

[She probably shouldn't find it amusing, but she does, so laughter slips out.]

Ah, true. Unfortunately, since we can't predict which will come when and how, I'm not sure it's that much better. Especially as two of those vectors would mean interference from Unicron.

[Her amusement isn't completely evaporated, but she sobers up and the smile is more sharp than carefree.]

[The slight smile that appears on his own face at her laugh is quick to vanish at the mention of Unicron.]

Yeah...there is that.

All the work, in multiple realities, and we still can't be rid of him completely.

[She huffs, static gently distorting the last word in her annoyance.]

I suppose that could be the nature of deities though, since Primus exists elsewhere as well...

[At least that is rather reassuring.]

I haven't even gotten to try because I ended up here right after we figured out who Unicron was.

...so is he really something to that level?

... I really do hope time ends up standing still if that's when you left.

And I would assume so. Since if there's at least two of us, from different realities, who have 'visitations' of Unicron, and he was defeated in mine, but is still around?

Clearly it's not as easy as simply killing... or defeating him, in one reality.

Same here.

But then even with guys like Optimus, hey, even me-there's more than one version, so...

Okay I think I'm confusing myself now.

[She can't help it, and smiles a little, then shakes her helm.]

I think the difference is that he's... a singular thing? Since if I understand it right, any one of us who have alternates, they're still their own people, even if we're connected by being alternates of each other?

[She's not entirely sure, she isn't a scientist after all.]

I...guess?

[With a nod, Elita shrugs.]

Either way, the fact that he does exist in more than one reality, singular or not, is unpleasant enough.

In your reality... did you know about him before he attacked? We didn't.

[I's more a curiosity than a necessity to know, but she does wonder how usual it is to know about Unicron.]

No arguments there. [Yeah. That guy needs to go. Into a sun or something.]

[Hot Rod shakes his head at that.]

Never heard of him until we got a call from Jazz and Cliffjumper on Moonbase 1, and even then, we had no idea what we were dealing with. Seriously though, how does anyone miss a giant planet-eating thing like that? It's like he just showed up out of nowhere.

If he was elsewhere in the galaxy... or even in some other galaxy, then, perhaps..? We hadn't heard of either Primus or Unicron before things started to suddenly just happen.

[She frowns, gesturing a big vaguely.]

Grim and a few others were fighting in the depths of Cybertron, and it woke Primus up... We all felt it when it happened. [Grimlock had growled something about a "scream" and maybe that's what it had been at the source - for most of them it had just been a vibration, a flutter of their sparks with no origin until Primus awakening was known later.]

I suppose that called Unicron to Cybertron or something like that.

That seems to be how everything happens.

[He frowns.]

So you're saying in your case, something triggered it, possibly?

Sounded like Unicron on our end just started chowing down on planets. Kup and I ran into the last survivor of one such place when were stuck on Quintessa.

Warnings are overrated, apparently.

[Helm tilting, the upper edge of an optic ridge quirks a little, because it always seem to come down to that. Warnings are overrated.]

I would guess so, yes, since there'd been nothing of him prior to that, but Primus wakes up and then... [she shrugs.]

The way yours happened sound almost worse... you would think you'd have known about him beforehand, but I suppose that's not how these things go.

Yeah, not how it worked. Our first encounter with him costs us two of Cybertron's moons.

The moons?

... I suppose that's better than Cybertron itself, but Primus. What else was happening?
