[Video] [Originating from Trionic temple]

[The video feed shows a very serious, very large Autobot. He looks calm, but... not particularly happy at the moment.]

My designation is Skyfire, Autobot scientist. I have just arrived and received a basic explanation, so that part is covered, mostly. Hard to believe as it might be.

That said - If there are any other Autobots from the same Cybertron I come from, that would be nice to know.

[Oh look at that.]

I'll let Jetfire know his giant clone came back.

[Video]

[wherenobotsgone]

I... what?




Starscream?

[Video]

[aerospacecommander]

No, it's Thundercracker. I got a new paintjob to look like Starscream. The light blue color scheme wasn't fashionable anymore.

[Video]

[wherenobotsgone]

... right.

Not the Starscream from my dimension, I take it?

[Given you're not yelling at him or somehow trying to shoot him through the screen.]

[thxforthememories]

... You're huge.

[Thank you, Kagerou.]

[wherenobotsgone]

Ah... yes. I am.

Hello.

[thxforthememories]

Are you... one of the living robots?

video;

[wherenobotsgone]

A Cybertronian, yes. [You get a confused look.] And... you aren't?

[Video]

[littlecrowgirl]

...

[This girl is in absolute shock.]

W-Wow...Hi.

[Video]

[wherenobotsgone]

Hello there. [He tilts his head a bit.] Are you okay?

[Video]

[littlecrowgirl]

You're...you're really big!

How tall are you? You make MOUNTAINS look average size!

[Exaggeration. Kay uses it.]

[He saw the beginning of that conversation with Starscream. Yes, the immature one is "his".]

I believe the only one from your reality present is a Decepticon; Thundercracker.

[Jetfire's honestly surprised to see this same alternate again, but it's doubtful, like Ratchet coming back, that he remembers much of anything of the short stay, so instead of mentioning that, he just shrugs, a dry smile on his faceplates.]

There's more impossible things out there to have to believe, though, than the existence of a possible multiverse. Given the theories available, this is more like confirmation. [Pause.] I think Starscream already introduced me, but I'm Jetfire.

[Hi, have a somewhat shorter alternate version of yourself, Skyfire.]

[Video]

[wherenobotsgone]

[Even after learning about alternate dimensions, and even after hearing Starscream's "clone" comment? This is still kind of weird.]

Oh... hello. Pleased to meet you.

[There's a bit of an awkward pause, and then he goes for the subject he feels most comfortable with.]

It is fascinating to have confirmation. I'd still like to know more about how it works, but being here it'd be silly to deny that it's a fact. And I suppose I will have time to find out more details while I'm here.

It's the part about the Firstforged that I'm most concerned about, to be honest. How do we know these "acolytes" are telling the truth?

[Video]

[angleofscience]

[He's had one brief round of getting used to it, but yes, it's pretty weird.]

Likewise. [Jetfire smiles briefly, and then his helm tilts consideringly, optics narrowing a bit.] The closest guess I'd make, at least when it comes to universes with different Cybertrons and thus alternate versions of ourselves, is that it's Cybertron itself that acts the unifying, central anchor.

There's also some realities where the... hm, design of our frames are very similar, and some where they are vastly different, which would imply some form of... universe bunching. Something similar to universal galaxies, perhaps.

[He nods, then, and shakes his helm.]

The Firstforged, yes... Well, regardless of any claims of the origin of their creation, someone needs to be... first. And whether or not they're not telling the whole truth or not, I do know I've met an individual back in my reality that did come from before recorded time, that... ah. Shares some definitive similarities with one of the Firstforged present.

[Take that as you will.]

[sword_redemption]

We had a mech named Wreck-Gar, and a Perceptor from your world, I think.

They're not here anymore, though.

[video]

[wherenobotsgone]

I see... Thank you for your help, anyway.

[video]

[sword_redemption]

I'm sorry.

But it's something to on watch for, for your kind; if you feel any pull toward the Badlands.

[raceme]

Skyfire! You're back...waiamoment. [Oh you are not the Skyfire he knew.]Oh.

Eh..hello sir.

[wherenobotsgone]

[He smiles a little, but it's kind of weak.]

... I'm sorry. I'm afraid I don't remember ever being here before.

[raceme]

[Blurr gives him a sheepish loo.] That _happened before yes. I'm B-l-u-r-r it's nice to meet you.

[Video]

[treacherous_widow]

Whoa. You're one big bot.

[Video]

[wherenobotsgone]

Well... yes, I'm a shuttle.

Re: [Video]

[treacherous_widow]

...just how many bots did they make your size.

[pendragon]

I am glad the Acolytes were able to educate you on the basics. If you ever decide you would like more information, I am available. I am no expert, but I have been here for three months now.

[ A curt, but welcoming nod comes from the knight. ]

I'm called Saber. Welcome to Cybertron.

( video )

[wherenobotsgone]

Thank you, Saber. That's very kind of you.
