( 004; video ) ♔ ( haven's hub )

[pendragon]

[ Saber's face comes onto the link quite clearly. There's an extremely large wall behind her, which happens to be one of the sides of the Hub. ]

Greetings, all. As I was walking through the Junk Pile today, I came across something I immediately recognized.

[ The camera is then turned and focused on a motorcycle. It appears normal, but may look slightly unique to those with appreciation for motorcycles. It's dinged up in many places, but most of it seems to be aesthetic or nothing too serious.

After the motorcycle is on the screen for a few moments, the knight turns it back to her face. ]

Does anyone have the time and means to repair this for me? I'm certain I can offer goods or services in return. [ After all, she only spent her first few months in the junk pile, stocking the (back then) Rec Center. ] This would immensely help in my duty patrol in Vector Prime's quadrant.

[ Saber has been asked by Vector Prime to assist in patroling the eastern end of the Vectorian quadrant. It's not that difficult of a task as she can easily travel very quickly on foot, but her motorcycle would make it much more efficient. ]

[ The following is sent only to Knock Out. ] I first thought of you when I was imagining who I could ask. Would you be able and interested in repairing my motorcycle? [ They had even talked about it briefly not too long before.. ]

So that one is the famous, nameless, motorcycle. I am able to do many things. [With something so small, thought, it will be like working on a miniature.

He likes those.]

Offer services in return, you said.

( locked and video forever!)

[pendragon]

Yes, it is. ..How strange I mentioned it and suddenly it's here. I believe I looked twice before I convinced myself of what I was seeing.

[ Saber brings her hand to her chest in a respectful manner. ] I don't have many areas of expertise, but I am sure I can assist you with or do whatever task you would like me to do in return.

ok!

[deadlydoctor]

Perhaps the lambda heard you. It does weird things after all. O hope you didnt' hit it just to be sure, I know people who would do that.

I'm working on a new medbay, one more suitable to everyone's needs here. [Meaning, with less Autobots.] And I need more tools, but looking around the junkpile is so..[Knock Out makes a face]....dirty.

[pendragon]

I.. see. Aye, I can do that. What would you like me to find? All I ask is that you transport the motorcycle to the work station yourself. [ She did try to start it, and it will start, but it doesn't sound like she should be attempting to drive it very far.

Besides, some of what he may need may already be hidden in Haven's Hub somewhere. ]

[deadlydoctor]

I will give you a list, If you can't find any tool then raw materials work just as well. I can do that, it's small for me. I will have to change the engine so it runs on energon. It'll go faster than before.

[Solus banned him form <>stealing borrowing the tolls from the original medbay, so he's actually trying to behave.]

[pendragon]

..I see. [ Run even faster? That'd be.. ridiculous. Saber won't voice her opinion, though. Perhaps when he actually sees what the vehicle is like, he may change his mind. Or may not. ] Yes, please send the list when you can. If you would organize it as the item needed and then the raw material that could be substituted if I am unable to find that item.. that would be exquisite.

[deadlydoctor]

[Energon over energize things, it could happen. Specially if Ko added synthetic energon or dark energon to it.

Then again if he did that the motorcycle would probably a) become sentient and b) try to rule them all.]

I will add the files to your private com link as soon as I have it, don't worry too much.

Now, you need to think about a name for her.

[pendragon]

A name. ..And her? Is it automatically a her? I was contemplating the possibility after naming it after a him.

[ Saber looks downwards to the bike's general direction for a moment, and then back to the screen. ]

I will be awaiting your list, then.

[deadlydoctor]

Oh no of course not, you can name it whatever you want. Who's him?

[Curious mech is curious.]

Then it's settled.

[pendragon]

I believe I'll be naming it Emiya.

[ The family name of not only the man who had it made for her, but also his son who she remembered much more fondly. That was a decent thing to name the motorcycle, or so she thought. The knight would name it in honor of them. ]

..Did you want to know what to call the motorcycle? [ For some reason, Saber finds the idea quite amusing. Perhaps Knock Out spoke to inanimate objects? As did she, although she wouldn't admit it. ]

[deadlydoctor]

Is that a japanese name?

[That's sweet, saber. Too bad Ko doesn't know.] So you will be riding Emiya?

[The medic smirks, amused.]

Yes. [When it comes to Cybertronians you can't never be sure that an inanimate objects is actually really inanimate and not someone chilling in their alt mode. It's always better to spoke to them first, so KO is used to do that.]

i'm so glad saber is too blonde to get that really

[pendragon]

Aye, it's Japanese. [ Yes, she'll be.. riding.. Emiya. Why did that statement sit in her mind so .. awkwardly? Saber is distracted to his admittance of wanting to know what it was called so he could be accurate. ]

I.. see. I suppose it's better to be polite than run into any misunderstandings. [ Saber can kind of relate, as she'll likely never look at a car the same way again. ]

Oh god, Saber you precious thing.

[deadlydoctor]

You are japanese too? [Because KO manages to make anything sound dirty. It's a talent.]

It never hurts to be careful, no. [Or a jet. Or a truck. or a cassette....with Cybertronians, it can be anything.]

[pendragon]

I am not Japanese, no. [ A pause. ] Do I seem that I am Japanese..? [ She did enjoy the culture, but Saber had near painfully pale skin and bright blonde hair and green eyes.. not only that, but that subtle British accent. However, she didn't think his question was silly. ]

[deadlydoctor]

No, but it's actually hard for me to know exaclty where you fleshies are from. [Most of you look the same to Knock Out, small and squishy.]

[pendragon]

I see. [ A sigh of relief. ] It would be unfortunate if I did not represent the country I had ruled. [ Saber was happy this was a misunderstanding; the issue had been Knock Out's ignorance of humans and nothing more. ]

[deadlydoctor]

You were president? [He was not trying to offend you this time, Saber, really.]

[pendragon]

[ She's not offended; why would she be when she went to the modern world momentarily and knew presidents and prime ministers had replaced kings? ] King, actually.

[deadlydoctor]

[Ah, yes true :3 it's the highest rank after all.] Oh, fancy. With a crown and everything?

[pendragon]

Yes. Do you find that odd? [ The knight tilts her head and looks at him curiously. ]

[deadlydoctor]

Not but there weren't all that many kings left in the Earth I visited. What year was it for you, in your universe?

[pendragon]

Late 5th century was my time. [ A nod. She was also temporarily in the 1990s, but that was another matter and not related. ]

[deadlydoctor]

That explains it. 2012 was my year. This world must look really scary to you then.

Wait...if you are from the 5th century how come you had that motorcycle? [Don't lie to him lady, he doesn't like that.]

[pendragon]

Ah, so you did ask. I was summoned for a brief while to the 20th century, so I am used to more "modern" things. It wasn't as huge as a shock as it could have been since when I was summoned, the knowledge of the modern world was automatically given to me. [ A nod. ]

[deadlydoctor]

Of course. Don't think me a fool.

Summoned? Why who? We use space bridges to travel from one place to another but those don't usually time travel.
