[Video | Megatronus' temple]

Hello! If you're seeing this, I'm maybe dead. Maybe assimilated. Maybe zombie-assimilated. Like a zomborg.

[The little girl is holding a a camera phone at an odd angle that might have been called the MySpace angle some time before her time. She's staring straight into the camera that is just a little too close and there's some dramatic lighting coming from below her face like she's holding a flashlight under her chin. Which she is. On her head is the most ridiculous hat that looks like a googly-eyed Rocket Raccoon with a tail sticking off the back.]

I've been abducted by alien robots! They're trying to make me into human stew to power their evil oppression machines!

[Someone has obviously seen too many horror movies or something. She's going all Blair Witch with this, though that's too old for her too, so maybe it's Cloverfield of Chronicle. Either way.]

I need a rescue, and fast. Call the Avengers or the X-Men or the Fantastic Four! Or whatever they're calling themselves today... But save me! The future of the planet Earth depends on it!

[She shakes the camera and turns off the light, leaving the screen black for a moment with some hard breathing before it shuts off. Obviously she doesn't realize this was broadcasting live.]

... [Well, that's a thing. Elita tilts her helm thoughtfully before answering. Whether she needs to pause to pare down the incredulity to less obvious levels, or not snort or something, she can't decide.]

We don't use organics, either as ingredients to make fuel for what machinery is available around here or to eat. Energon is completely non-organic.

[She waves a hand.]

And the majority of us are as kidnapped as you are.

You jerks kidnap your own kind? That's stupid. We should be friends, since we both obvs like the color pink. I'm Princess Powerful.

[She smiles despite herself, shaking her helm.] Well, besides the fact that I didn't choose to be pink, if you want to I don't see why not.

[Or rather, someone she needs to look after.]

Nice to meet you. I'm Elita One. And really, the only thing that has 'kidnapped' us is the time-space anomaly in the sky. The Primes whose temples we're in would probably prefer we not be here.

[Another dry smile.]

[packingapunch]

But you're a robot. You could just get a paint job if you don't like it, duh!

Is this an Avengers thing? They're always complaining about time stuff.

[invisiblepinkboat]

Avengers? Never heard of them. [She shrugs and then snorts.]

I suppose I could, but it'd be temporary. This is the colour my plating is. [She holds out the arm her screen isn't attached to and eyes it.] Unintegrated armour that gets used as repairs is obviously gray, but when it gets attached to me it'll turn pink.

[packingapunch]

That. Is. So. COOL! I wanna be pink!

[invisiblepinkboat]

[That burst of enthusiasm has her laughing and tilting her helm.]

I didn't think humans could change their skin colour at all, though, permanently or temporarily? Though with clothes, it'd work, I suppose.
