[Video][Transmitting from the bar at Haven's Hub]

[winged_knight]

[Someone's been digging through the bar's storeroom looking for decorations for the dance when he comes across a little reminder. Well, not so little. He'd found it in the Junk Pile two months ago and had no idea what to do with it all. And once unpacked, it was more than he could haul back to his room much less have space for. So it'd been sitting, covered by on old tarp, forgotten in the bar's storeroom until now.]

[Wing waves into the video feed, looking, frankly, a little bit perplexed and perturbed.]

A lot of us received anonymous gifts quite a little while back. Mine was...quite large. And unfortunately, try as I might, I can't discern...what it even is.

[Wing holds up one of pieces of equipment which looks decidedly like an energy weapon to him, something he seems none too pleased about. He steps back to gesture behind him, to where a bunch of similar equipment is strewn about one corner of the room.]

Anyone want to help me sort out what all this stuff is? I'm at a loss.

[And one might notice, if one paid particular attention or just had a habit of staring at Wing's frame in general, that something has definitely changed since his last broadcast in December. His lines seem sleeker and the proportions in his chassis do seem different.]

On an entirely different note, I'm also happy to announce--albeit a little belated--that those to which I offered flights or tours of Haven, I can now accommodate you.

[Judging by the way this brings a smile back to his face, he seems inordinately pleased by this. Someone finished his cockpit modification and can carry passengers!]

It still would have been difficult without me.

[Though they probably could have pinned down Thundercracker and scanned him instead.]

[winged_knight]

I suppose that's true, though there might have been others.

[And Thundercracker would likely have been more willing, given they're actually friends.]

[aerospacecommander]

None of them are constructed as great as I am though.

[winged_knight]

I wouldn't know, I can't say I've sat down to compare you all.

[ Though as side commentary goes... ]

[aerospacecommander]

You wouldn't have to -- because there is no comparison.

[winged_knight]

Oh, well I suppose that's the benefit of sharing model types. Similar performance expectations.

[ Oops, did he just accuse you of being average? ]

[aerospacecommander]

Other fliers only wish they could match my speed and skill.
