[Video] [TRANSMISSION ORIGINATING FROM: JUNKPILE]

[youhavebeenswindled]

[The feed opens to a cheerful looking Swindle relaxing on a chunk of metal, apparently totally at ease with being transported to another dimension and losing almost everything he owns. Oh yes, it's unfortunate that he's lost all of it, but there's no point in dwelling on it right? Time to move on to new things and adapt to the situation.]

Greetings Autobots, Decepticons alike! The name's Swindle, and I'm here to make you an offer! I am aware that many of you may have lost a weapon or two upon arriving in this marvellous world, and I'm perfectly willing to offer you a replacement weapon... for a price of course. I can also do weapon repairs for anyone who needs them, so I hope I can prove to you my devotion to good customer service in the future.

But this is not just a business call! Since we're all in this together, why don't you tell me a little about yourselves? I love meeting new people, and how often can I say I've met others from a completely different dimension? This goes for you organic types too!

[Besides, it's more beneficial to him to be friendly with everyone than enemies. Now if he had a Megatron to hide behind, things would be totally different.]

Just curious. I've got nothing to fix right now. [Korra doesn't have much of anything, actually.]

Though, actually...how would that even work for me? Bit of a size difference here. Wouldn't that be like making stuff for dolls or something for you?

[youhavebeenswindled]

I've worked with organics before, and believe me, none of you ever grow very big. So if ever you need anything fixed just give it to me, and I'll be glad to take a crack at it! I've got a steady set of servos and the patience needed.

So tell me, what's your name?

[not_halfbaked]

Korra.

Oh, you mentioned replacement weapons...what about replacement armor?

[She rubs the back of her neck.]

I know you didn't mention this, but I gotta ask, do you know anything about gasoline? [Considers. Did she want to explore entirely on foot?] Cars and mopeds?

[youhavebeenswindled]

Armour... I'm afraid I don't have any, but it's possible I could make you some. It'll take a while though, so you'll have to be patient.

[Ah, there's the gasoline thing again.]

You're the second one to ask me about gasoline y'know, I'm really going to have to look into it. Anything to keep my customers happy. I'm afraid I don't have any right now though, check on me in a couple of days and we'll see.

Oh, and the only vehicles I've seen are either trashed or alive haha.

[not_halfbaked]

[Korra nods.]

Thanks. I'll have to think about it some [and if she goes through with it, draw up designs of what she wants, probably something like the firebender armor she wore for her firebender test] and get back to you on that. [She frowns.] Especially since I don't really have anything to offer you right now.

Trashed, huh...? Then they can probably be fixed.

[youhavebeenswindled]

Well, I could always use some help sorting through the junk yard if you care to use that method of payment. I've found several intriguing things so far, so it'll be an interesting experience at least.

We might even be able to find you a vehicle for you to drive around in. Out of curiosity, can you drive?

[Swindle happens to know that this isn't a skill all humans have.]

[not_halfbaked]

Oh? What kind of stuff did you find?

First time I drove I parked straight into a lamp...so, no, I don't really know how to drive. Was hoping to figure it out though.
