[The camera shows Wing's quarters, a breeze lightly rustling a curtain behind the two mechs. Drift's standing, almost pacing, as though he's been talked into this and is still not very comfortable.]
[He hesitates, trying to gather the right words. It's so much easier when he's writing it for someone else.]
A lot--more mechs than we even know--died here, or went missing. Everyone deserves to be remembered, whether we have their bodies or not. They were all like us, and we, any of us, could disappear or....worse, ourselves.
[Ghosts, zombies, the unknown fate of the badlands: so many options, all of them terrible. Wing doesn’t like any of those notions, but this idea is heartening. He rises from his seat near the window.]
If there’s one thing recent events have taught us, it’s that memories have a power of their own. We need a way, not just to mourn, but to remember those no longer with us, both past and future. To honor them. And maybe keep hope alive for the lost.
We were thinking of a place, not like a cemetery, but some place that recalls them as they were. This is for all of us, not just Cybertronians, so we were kind of wondering. How do you celebrate the memories of those you've lost in your worlds?

[video - YOU ARE]
[video - PRETTY PRINCESS SMILE]
Eh. Not really. There ain't nothin' you can do an' there ain't no reason t'waste your time cryin' over them bein' dead. An' puttin' up memorials an' scrap is just stupid.
[video >:\]
Not even Whirl?]Why is it stupid to remember your friends? Wouldn't you want them to remember you if something happened?
[video]
[video]
[Killing a number Drift honestly thinks is probably not real
he'll have to ask Perceptorof people?]That's the only thing that matters?
[video]
[IT TOTALLY IS A REAL NUMBER OKAY]
Ain't no one remember a geek or loser when they die.
[video]
[Ouch, by the way, that's cold.]
Is that how the world is? Geeks and losers and...you?
[video]
[And, well, Frenzy and all.]
Geeks, losers, an' the powerful. So, yeah, basically me.
[video]
You know, one day you're going to run into someone a bit more powerful than you.
[video]
But... You wasn't always a 'bot, right? Tarn likes t'talk about you sometimes. He seems kinda interested in ya.
[video]
[And it was probably true.]
I...er. [Great. Tarn. His favorite mech.] No. I used to be a Decepticon. Tarn is...kind of a little.....much.
[video]
An' yea, so, maybe Tarn can be a little... wazztheword... flemboyyent but at least he's powerful an' strong. An' I'd be definitely worried, if I was you.
[video]
[Not with things like the DJD.]
If Tarn is that powerful, why didn't he fight Autobots? Why pick on his own side?
