 [Rewind was able to deal with a lot of things lately. Snuff films? Whatever. A new Cybertron? Okay. No Chromedome for awhile? That's fine. PROWL? Slightly less happy but still doing okay. But no. It's Rung's death that is the kicker. And the worst part of it is, Rewind had it ingrained into his database.  It didn't make it any easier to accept sometimes.

He was a tough little bot, though, who had seen his fair share of events. Experienced a few as well. So he's not going to outwardly show it. But he'll be huddled up in his room, in the dark, flickering with his camera, and using the wall as a projection screen.

Everything was Rung from their time on the Lost Light.

You could say that. Rung and I go way back.

[Yeah...a whole 6 issues back.]

...was that a metaphor?

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

So like back back or just back?

It's a reference, kid, look it up.

[Video]

[flashdrive]

Way back.

[But that visor's now GLARING at you, Crow.]

I'm at least 500,000 times older than you.

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

[That's pretty impressive.]

And you still don't know who Jodie Foster is. Have you even SEEN Taxi Driver?

[Video]

[flashdrive]

...

No. I haven't. What...is it?

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

It's a movie! Jeeze, for a living TV you sure don't know a lot about movies.

[Video]

[flashdrive]

[OH. OH IT'S ON BRO.]

Hey! I'm not a TV! I'm an archivist. On Cybertronian movies.



...If you've got the goods, though...

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

Well I only have Manos: the Hands of Fate right now...

...do you guys have a phoneline or a router?

[Video]

[flashdrive]

I'll take it.

[He wants any and all things entertainment.]

A router?

[What are you, from EARTH?]

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

Ok, have fun with it...

[Totally not gonna tell Rewind it's the worst movie ever. Crow brings up the tape--shut up, it's the nineties.]

Yeah, to get online! I have to explain EVERYTHING to you guys...

Re: [Video]

[flashdrive]

Great! Where are you, cause I've gotta come pick that up.

[FINALLY something to do.]

...You mean like...the internet, right? I've heard about it..

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

Oh I'm hanging over at Nexus' place.

[At least he can get rid of it.]

What do you think I meant?! You guys need a LOT of help...

[Video]

[flashdrive]

We don't NEED things like internet here, buddy.


But give me a minute, I'll be right over.

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

Yeah, just look how great you guys have been getting along...

Take your time, we only got forever apparently.

[Video]

[flashdrive]

Hey, we're still light years above what you guys have. How are lasers coming along?

[He starts walking out of the temple though.]

It'll be a bit. So hold your proverbial tail.

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

I guess now would be the time I cracked out the James Joyce, huh?

[Video]

[flashdrive]

I have no idea what that is.

[Video]

[uknowuwantmebaby]

Just hold on to your horses, stranger in a strange land.

[Action]

[When Rewind finally gets there, his hands are on his hips, looking around for the guy.]

Wouldn't that be -you-? Technically this is my planet. Or close.
