[video] [Locked to Brave Police and Kagerou]

[sword_redemption]

[Drift can't imagine the mechs he saw give their all to help fight the sharkticons as dangerous or threatening. They were good mechs, sparks in the right place, brave and honorable. Gunmax had nearly died, fighting to protect a world that wasn't even his. ]

[But at the same time, he doesn't disbelieve Kagerou. He can recognize that tone of borderline fear and desperation. And if what Kagerou is saying is true...?]

[This is all a mistake. A misunderstanding. It needs to be straightened out one way or the other. If he needs to protect Kagerou, he will.]

[He pings the Brave Police, then Kagerou. The new arrival can listen in, even if he doesn't say anything, so he can hear for himself.]

Brave Police.  There's something I need to talk to you about.

[Ouch. Rough start. He sighs, thinks, starts again.]

Whatever was on your world, your Japan, it's not here. Old grudges, old missions. They don't apply here.

[He frowns.]  You're honorable mechs; can I have your word on that? 

[There's clearly something behind why he's asking.]

...what's that supposed to mean?

Here you go, running around and accusing us of having to worry about setting aside our differences. And this has to do with someone I don't even know or care about. Anything I have to be concerned with, they're dead or locked away.

You? You guys have your stupid faction business to throw a fit about. So I gotta ask, why am I the one you're so worried about, Drift?

[He blinks. Ouch.]

I just...I guess it's personal for me. I've had my past thrown in my face, even after I was pardoned. It's hard enough to leave behind what I've done myself.

I just don't want someone else to go through that. I'm sorry. You're right. It was unfair.

...Look, I know the feeling. And... yeah, I guess you meant well.

I might have been a bit harsh, but I'm glad you get my point. Anyway, don't worry about it. Friends forgive each other, or some crap.

I did. I just...I do this. Go off a little half-cocked.

[He winces, remembering...uh...what's his name.]

Thanks for understanding.
