Please forgive me for taking so long to get back to you.

[The message is quick but precise--Alpha Trion is in his study, with stacks of datapads behind him. He's obviously been researching something, and those who know him well might recognize that he seems a little tired.]

As you might guess from recent events, things have been...hectic. However, I do still want to speak with you as promised. You may come in person, if you like.

Jetfire.

I suggest you make your preparations, as I have finished with my previous assignments and intend to outfit you for exploration shortly.

[He's cross. There's probably a reason he's cross, since he's covered in snow.]

As you are aware, this may be a one way trip.

[In other words, make said preparations very carefully.] Come see me when you are ready.

[Well this should be fun, or at the very least interesting. Despite getting plenty of information from the Acolyte, there's still a lot of unsolved mysteries that need to be answered.

Mostly who's all here and who does she have to deal with now. She won't even get into the emotional roller coaster that is trying to comprehend a suddenly alive Cybertron. No, not on camera at least. That can wait until later.

For now, let's make this short and sweet.]

So who wants to fill me in on what's been going on?

[Don't tell her you guys didn't get her a present.]

Wing, could I... er, ask you to meet me at my current location?

[Have some coordinates, which happens to be up in the air rather far above the junk pile.]

I need to request something of you.

[Jetfire doesn't sound grim, but certainly serious enough, which his body language whenever Wing arrives should convey obviously enough as well, arms folded over his chest and expression tight, but not exactly a frown.]
