[Video/voice post]

[The broadcast starts out playful enough, from the inside of Blurr's cab as he is driving home through the junkyard. The view looks backward, where some distance away a second object is trying to keep up.]

Hm? Someone thinks they can outrun me in a race? [Blurr sounds amused; he hasn’t had a proper race in some time.] All you had to do was ask! Who is this?

[Except the object has disappeared.]

...not a race, Blurr...

[The voice sounds like Skids's voice, but not. Whatever it is, it causes Blurr to slow down for a moment in recognition.]

Ski--

[He's cut off as something slams into the side of his cab. The camera goes wild for a moment as first Blurr is bowled over and then starts to transform, metal scraping over metal while oddly alien noises howl and screech in the background. There's a brief flash of something blue and Skids-shaped, but there's also tentacles lashing and a sudden jolt in vision as Blurr starts to leaps out of the way and is snagged.]

Skids, whatareyou--!?

[Then, the video goes to static.]


[A moment later, it returns, some distance away from where it last cut out. The Skids-creature can be seen far off, and moving further away on some other quest.]

[The camera holds on this for a moment, before it is shakily swung around and the video goes black again. The sound is still on and Blurr’s shaky voice can be heard. The last time he asked for help using the comm. link Starscream tried to take advantage and kill him. Blurr’s not so inclined to ask for help right now, besides, there’s more pressing issues that need to be taken care off first.]

I r-require everyone’s attention. Something happened to Skids. I think he is..I…I’m not sure. He looked like that a creature he described to me once, a spark eater.

He’s dangerous.


[And that’s all he’s going to say for now, talking would be easier if the world stopped spinning]

[Locked to Saber/ video]

[The video goes on, this time to reveal the face of a human male with bright blue eyes, despite that the transmission clearly claims to still originate from Blurr.]

I think.

I think I'm going to need some help.


[ooc: All of Blurr's replies will come an hour later once he's at Vector's, fully dressed. Feel free to visit him :3]

Yes, now we sleep. [ As he gets onto the bed, she immediately moves backwards to the farther side of the laid out blankets. Blurr was right; it had gotten dark out. Saber hadn't really noticed. It was easy to notice now that it was darker in the room. ]

So, sleep well. And do not be afraid to wake me if something happens. [ Saber lifts the edge of the blankets and rustles into them, laying on her back after smoothing out her dress beneath the sheets. She was not the most comfortable to be sleeping in it, but it was't exactly terrible, either. ]

[ Sitting upright, so the blankets are up to her waist, Saber looks down at her lap as she thinks.

Blurr had been through a considerable amount lately, and maybe because of that, he seems a bit off. However, there may also be something bothering him.. ]


Blurr. You're welcome any time. And you do know if you would like to speak about something to ease your mind, I am open to that as well? I don't know if I would be able to offer any advice, but.. [ She pauses. ] I definitely would be glad to listen to anything you would like to talk about.

[ Tilting her head upwards, she looks to the ceiling idly. ] You've been through much lately, so it feels like something may be bothering you..?

All of the time. [ There's no hesitation in her voice. Saber was an inadequate king and was likely not the best of a friend. She was very familiar with those types of feelings. ] In fact, I have never come across someone who thought they were enough without them being ridiculously arrogant..

If anything, it means you are aware of yourself and want to improve. And possibly humble, too. There is nothing wrong with that, Blurr.

[ Folding her hands in her lap, Saber looks ahead of her as she breathes in gently once and then continues to speak. ]

The thing that can be wrong with this is that you are underestimating your worth. That will drag you down and affect your relationships with others. Even if you do have flaws, if you are aware of them and are working to improve them, you can do no wrong. You should also realize everyone has flaws..

[ The knight pauses, realizing she's likely talking a bit too much. It's not really her place to introspect for Blurr in his place, but she's kind of simply speaking her mind about the topic. ] ..Regardless, I think you are very interesting, if that counts for anything.

I, too, worked alone my entire life and did what I believed was right. And I did what I had to do. [ She turns her head to look at him. ] It is much easier to simply be on your own, however..

[ A gentle sigh. ] We're very both in a very intelligent species, and that means communication. And to exist and be alone, due to the fact that we are socially inclined.. [ Saber doesn't want to admit outright she was a lonely person at times, so she generalizes it. ] It can become quite lonely. There may be issues with working with others, but most feel the outcome is worth it compared to being alone.

[ A nod, as if the knight is happy with her wording. ] If people are causing you grief, you should try to find those who easier understand and empathize with you.

[ She tilts her head in a thoughtful way, her hair swinging gently with the movement. Saber then shakes her head. ] ..Perhaps, people like me. [ A soft smile. ] I'm like you, Blurr. I'm saying all of this, but I know this more from observing and listening to others than actually practicing. I have always had issues with others.. My duty and pride comes first.

[ Raising her hands together, she nods. ] I've never had very many I could say I trusted or were friends. So, I too, should take my own advice and find people who can understand me better. Like you, Blurr. [ The knight closes her eyes and smiles. This conversation is much more awkward for her than she lets on, and she feels oddly exposed; but it also feels.. comforting at the same time. ]

Being certain of your actions is the way of the king. [ Ah, yes. They were supposed to be resting. Although, she doesn't want to keep him up, the thought that perhaps she had also made him feel like not enough did come to mind. ]

I haven't made you feel.. poorly in about yourself in any way, have I? Let me know if I have so I can clarify. [ Remember Blurr, Saber is new to this too. ]

Oh, I see. [ A thoughtful pause and look towards him. ] I will admit, despite you saying you are new to having friends you.. appear to have much more experience with relationships than I do. You are familiar with the idea of sharing a room with friends. So I likely seem more awkward to you. I.. was raised to be proper and respectful at all times. I have never been held or touched in an intimate sense. [ Even though she doesn't realize it, Saber is explaining why he would think she was keeping her distance from him. The knight smiles a bit nervously as she speaks. ]

Yes, let's rest, then. Sorry to chatter away when you are so tired. [ Not only did she have no experience, but Saber also always thought that intimacy was something she'd never have due to being 'inhuman' and having to pose as a man. She's not sure about Cybertronians and their relationships.. it's something she'd like to ask someday, but that doesn't seem like a good idea to ask right now. The knight blushes a little, thinking about it along with the current topic of their conversation.

The knight lays down again on her back. This time, though, she's closer to Blurr. There's only a few inches between them. ]
