[AUDIO TRANSMISSION: ALPHA TRION'S TEMPLE]

[dinnerdate]

... There's a good amount of humans here, right? So, uhh...

[Being social. It's clear that Dead End hasn't been social in a long time. But when you spend most of your time brooding in the dark, you don't really have much time to talk to people... About things that aren't power cores and death.]

Someone want to tell me about your species? ... Maybe?

[catwoman]

What kinda info are you looking for, handsome?

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

Not sure how much help I can be, but anything's better than nothing.


You're getting curious on our kind?

[audio]

[dinnerdate]

Anything? Never been to Earth so I don't really know much about--





Handsome?

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

A little...


You never mentioned the reapers.

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

...What's a reaper?

Is it something I should know about?

[video]

[whirlybird_of_prey]

They mate using tentacles.

And they prefer non-human mates. [KNOWING AND SLIGHTLY OMINOUS LOOK.]

[Guess who found a hentai video in the junk pile?]

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

Big inorganic guys apparently.

They give you dead humans your bodies back, or something.

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

W-WHAT?!

[For once, Sissel is completely shocked. Is...is that why he has a body? This...this solves all the mysteries he had about being here!]

Then...then they're the reason why I have one...

( Video )

[pendragon]

What would you like to know about?

[ Where did one even start with such a vague question? There was so much to say. ]

[video]

[dinnerdate]

What?

[Whirl, no. Put it back.]

How do you even know that?

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

I guess?

And I was told to shoot you because you're a husk, because of the reapers, and they want to kill everything. It was a tad confusing.

[Audio]

[tearsofsteel]

Sure, what do you want to know: our history or how we work?

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

...Ray never mentioned anything about this.

But...I don't want to kill anything. In fact, I'd rather to the exact opposite.

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

Ray?

Well, that's good.

( Video )

[dinnerdate]

Anything?

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

Is both too much to ask?

Re: ( Video )

[pendragon]

[ Saber paused, for a good moment. What topic was there to start on? Oh, she knew. ]

Food is a large part of human culture, and different ethnic groups have large variances in their styles of preparing food.

[ And then Saber's weakness was revealed. ]

You've got yourself some takers, but I'm also offering. I'm a doctor, so any medical related questions I might be able to tackle.

I'm equally interested in your culture as well, assuming you are of Cybertronian origin.

[Audio]

[tearsofsteel]

No, not at all.

Let me find someplace to start...see, humans have always been in these little groups around the world with their own ideas on how to live. Some believe in one god, some believe in none, some believe some people should be servants, others believe everyone should be free. Most of history these groups fought over what they thought was right. But sometimes there was peace, just some time to write explore who we are as a species...

Can't say we've done good as a species, but we've gone pretty far as a whole.

( Video )

[dinnerdate]

Aside from living is food really that important?

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

So. There's a lot of infighting?

[Sounds familiar.]

[video]

[dinnerdate]

I don't know enough about humans to ask any medical questions.

Yeah, I'm Cybertronian.

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

Oh, Ray was...a lamp. He's the one who gave me all that info about ghosts.

[You hear that Dead End? His best friend is a desklamp.]

[Audio]

[dinnerdate]

A... lamp?

[Really?]

[Audio]

[youdiedagain]

It's...it's a long story.
