This is Ultra Magnus.

Some order of business must be addressed, an announcement that will impact everyone.

While it had been temporarily determined that both McCrane and I would command the law enforcement team, we have both agreed that I will come into full command of law enforcement. All officers will report to me. McCrane, from this moment forward, will be your second-in-command. As such, your respect to him will not change.

However, I also realize that I am additionally part of the law committee. I am fine with having the responsibilities, but I am not interested in causing conflict with both teams. So I request the law committee to please take a vote on whether or not I will remain on your team. Whatever reason you have is your own; a simple "yes" or "no" will do.

To the Firstforged, I request a clear explanation on what you would determine to be a fair due process in how to detain criminals and suspects that bear your glyph. We should be working together, not against each other.

Should anyone have any questions, I am available to answer them.

Are you, ah.

...Are you all right?

[so, uh, Magnus. he may or may not have been unable to give you a report update as of late...

...so have a dog.

that has no idea how he's going to explain all of that, but thought that it was a good idea up to about two seconds ago.]

[Congrats Magnus. You have attracted the attention of one (1) dinosaur.]

[... He wants to say something, but typing skills are less than passable. And so he stares instead.]

[this is less helpful than he was intending to be.]

Unfortunately I will have to vote no.

[thxforthememories]

So. I answer to you, now?

[video]

[raceme]

I'm sorry that me resigning caused you two so much trouble.

[Guess who is this, Magnus. The big baby blue eyes probably give him away.]

[mccrane]

Thank you, Ultra Magnus.

I've prepared a report on my findings after speaking with Megatronus Prime. I have some suggestions to make to the Law Committee, while you're still a go-between for both.

[wheeljackofalltrades]

Nice to see ya step up to the plate, Sparky. No qualms here about your leadership.

[littlecrowgirl]

Yes.

The committee and police will work better if they have a liaison.

[skidaddle]

Huh, so you're on both?

Are you the only one?

[Video]

[toguidethem]

The chain of command sure seems to change a lot.

If its not too out of line to say so, sir.

[shutupndrive]

[Have a puppy that's very excited to see you, Magnus. A puppy that's sporting a makeshift collar that a certain therapist made for him for indentification purposes--

The '38' tag should make it easy, right?

Either way, he's really glad you're back to being yourself. ]

[tearsofsteel]

Whatever you say.

[Just ignore the fact that he's a stitchpunk now, Magnus.]

So are you on board with the Megatronus situation?

[showboater]

We all know you're gonna get voted in, why'd you even put it up for a vote?

[Video]

[ichooseboth]

Good to hear of your promotion, Magnus. I'm sure you'll do well.

I would personally be fine with you remaining as a liaison between the two groups - perhaps it would help expedite things a little.

[And they could really do with some expediting around here.]

If something comes up that causes a conflict of interest, we can simply have you refrain from voting in on the committee side or reevaluate at the time.

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

yes for myv ote

[adamndoctor]

Though I ain't entirely familiar with you, this place needs some fixin' with the law. So, yeah, you got my vote.

[winged_knight]

[ Though Wing seems to be buried in books he takes a moment to respond to this because well, he's all about duty right now. ]

Ultra Magnus, I think the Committee needs your expertise and having a liaison between the Committee and the police force is a good idea, but...

[ He leans forward, peering at you in that way a mom does at her grown child who's gone off to college to make sure they're taking care of themselves. ]

I do worry about you. I know you have a fierce dedication to duty and it's a lot to take on. But you need to take care of yourself as well.

[vandalization]

Hey Mags, what's up? I'm uh. I'm okay. Cybertronian! Check it out.

[pendragon]

Stay on the law committee, please. [ The sword hums gently. ] Please clear my confusion, if you would. Is it considered to be a negative point if you are in both the law committee and police force..?

[ After all, Saber is in both. She's not entirely sure what's going on anymore, but there must be a reason that Ultra Magnus is doing this poll. ]
