So, uhm. I suppose I should start by saying hello to everyone that just got here? Also I'm sorry the Lambda dumped you here, we... really aren't sure why it does that. Anyway...

[Fracas dips his head a little bit and taps his claws together. Now to the hard part (for him, anyway).]

Ever since that whole thing where everyone got turned into the wrong species I'm really sorry if I freaked out at any of you by the way, I've been thinking. We've been building a lot of buildings, which is good and all, especially for food storage and a place for people to live that isn't as big as the rooms in the temples, but... why not build roads?

It would make it a lot easier for humans and humanoids to get around, especially if we find transport for them, like... scooters and bicycles and stuff. They wouldn't have to ask someone for a ride unless they wanted to and they wouldn't have to walk everywhere, maybe; this place is pretty big when you're less than six feet tall. And it would be a lot easier on the tires of everyone that has them to drive on something paved. I don't know about the rest of you, but I wasn't exactly formatted for off-roading.

I-I mean, it would take a lot of work, but I think it'd help most of us. Anyway I thought it was just something to consider.

[She shakes her helm, then tilts it.]

And you're not sure if you feel comfortable being the only one? Being... individual. Or, rather, obviously so.

I'm definitely not comfortable with it. I mean, it's nice and all, but I kind of miss other Vehicons.

[He kind of misses confusing the people that scare him.]

I'd feel decidedly uncomfortable if there were a lot of others who looked precisely the same... [She chuckles slightly and taps her chin.]

I suppose it's different if you're used to it. But... were all... Vehicons like what you are now, even before the war?

[She's not going to ask about Fracas personally, she does respect personal space, whether literal or metaphorical.]

You should tell my Autobots that they should be uncomfortable about it. [He laughs a little.] They haven't been intimidated in ages.

As far as I know we were. Worker class, I think? I uh... I wasn't around, for most of that.

[Fracas showed up in time to pick his side but that's about it. It's not like he's keeping it a big secret, though.]

Well, familiarity and all that.

[She smiles briefly and then theh just shake her helm again.]

Strange idea. Nothing we had... not like that, even if, of course people were doing all sorts of things.

[Boring/simple or not.]

Yeah, there's that.

I figured. Apparently we're only from one place. And there are a lot of differences between the places everyone is from, too.

All the differences are... both interesting, intruiguing and a bit unsettling, sometimes.

[Especially the hints of at least one but probably more "flipped" mirror universes. Such a curious thing.]

Yeah. Honestly it's been pretty weird, hearing about how things have gone in other places.

[Or about the inverse Megatron, which he still can't believe.]

In the interest of curiosity; which has been the strangest thing so far?

[She grins as she asks it, interested and amused by the prospect both.]

Well, Shockwaves having apprentices is pretty weird, but... probably hearing that there's a Megatron around here that's nice.

[Clearly this is totally crazy, right?]

[She ends up laughing at that.]

I was thinking the same. And while the idea of inverse realities seem completely strange, in a way it does... make sense.

[Not in a science way or anything, just in a "why not" way because of all the other strange things that have happened.]

I guess it does. I mean, with all of the other differences we have around here... why not that, too? It'd make as much sense as, like... I don't know, Cybertronian dragons or something, right?

[Or a whole race of redshirts that work for Megatron.]

Pretty much, yes.

... Cybertronian dragons, though... [Well, she shouldn't say anything or be incredulous, given what has happened here and even in her own reality. Still, she shakes her helm a little.]

But yes, those probably exist somewhere as well.

Weird to think that there might be some of those around... hopefully none of them show up here looking for trouble.

[Given the whole 'fire-breathing man-eater' thing they're known for, and all.]

With our luck though... But yes, here's to hoping. [She smiles dryly.] And that something comes from your idea to make roads, as well.

Hey, thanks. Maybe I'll be able to drum up enough interest to get it started.

Given that it's not you or the organics it might help, I'm sure you will.
