[VIDEO | Vector Prime's temple]

[primest]

[What a surprise: Sentinel’s angry. The acolytes are pottering around in the background of the video, having been shouted at and told to frag off. Clearly, any information they had to offer had fallen on, ah, deaf audios.]

Ugh, is there anyone around here who isn’t a useless maintenance drone? These things are swarming all over the place and I haven’t been able to get a straight answer out of any of them!

I’m a Prime; we’re supposed to get better treatment than this!

[He scowls into the camera.]

Anyway, any Autobots in the immediate vicinity report directly to me. I want to know what’s going on and, uh, where I am.

[This is about as polite as you’re going to get from him.]

[That's a D-D-D-Decepticon, scoob!]

W-well, they weren't trying very hard to answer me.

[Oh god don't make it angry. Maybe if he stands still Thundercracker won't be able to see him? Decepticons have movement based vision, right??]

[Video] LOL I'd forgotten about the relative rarity of meeting a Con in TFA XD

[Ooooooh . . . the arrogant Autobot is afraid of him, is he?  Watch out, there, Sentinel!  Decepticons can smell fear!  >D  While Thundercracker would never DO anything at this point without REALLY good reason, there's too big a part of him that wants to toy with the mech to ignore.  He can indulge himself at least a little, can't he?  Big guys like this ought to be taken down a notch.]

All right, then.   Care to ask me your questions?  I'll try very hard to answer them.  I'll even offer a few answers first.  My designation is Thundercracker.  My First-forged is Alpha Trion.  [He shifts to show the Glyph on his left shoulder.  Bet THAT will throw the Autobot for a loop.  (Never mind the black outline…)  Then he shows the badge on the other shoulder.]  I'm also a member of the police force here.  This city – for lack of a better term – is called Haven.  Don't step outside the boundaries if you value your life . . . or you don't mind either finding yourself aft-deep in monsters trying to rip your faceplates off or fighting off a call in your mind trying to drag you to the Badlands and drive you insane. 

[There's been a rather small but rather smirky grin on his face as he says all that . . . but then he turns serious.] 

And I'm not telling you that because I'm a Decepticon.  Ask anyone here, including Neutrals and your fellow Autobots.  They'll tell you the same.

Re: [Video] sentinel has seen decepticons in real life like, all of twice

[primest]

[Pretty scared! If you were in front of him you'd be able to see that he's shaking ever so slightly. Thankfully, however, it is not visible on the video.]

I'm fine Dece- Thundercracker. Some Autobots already gave me the answers I wanted.

... Alpha Trion?! I knew he was senile, but accepting Decepticons? Decepticons in the Police Force?

I.

[Autobots, Decepticons and organics working together? Impossibru!]

[Video] Man, is he about to get his bubble burst. XD

[notyourblueangel]

[Hmn. At least this glitch is making an effort to play nice. There are other Autobot who still won't address him by his designation, preferring his faction as a slur. He nods.]

Stick to your fellows, listen to them when they tell you something about this place. You might survive after all.

[Honestly? Thundercracker intimidates him. Unfortunately, he considers just being a Decepticon an insult. Sorry, bro.]

[That said, he isn't stupid enough to start outwardly insulting Thundercracker and making enemies; he's not on his own turf anymore.]

What else would I do? Sit around and watch these drones slowly malfunction?
