[The first image you see of Jetfire is him waving his cane angrily at a bunch of acolytes.]

Don't you talk t'me about 'alternate universes'! I know 'em all! This isn't Cybertron! This is a joke! [He angrily stabs the ground with his cane. An acolyte approaches, but he quickly swats it away.] I'll not speakin' t'no drones! Where's your leader? [He aggressively pokes one of the acolytes in the face with his cane] Do ya even understand a word I'm even sayin'? Is anything gettin' through that one-bit processor o' yours? [Jetfire gets in the poor drone's face] Take - me - to - your - leader!

[Another drone attempts to pull Jetfire aside, but he whips back an arm and backhands the acolyte, knocking it to the ground. He turns and starts wailing on the little 'bot with his cane.] Tryin' t'sneak up on me, are you? Have you any idea who I am? My name's in history books! I was one of the first Seekers forged on Cybertron! The Mighty Jetfire! [He gives one last swift konk upside the drone's head, knocking the poor thing out.]

[And for a minute or so there's a bunch of old man complaining and muttering as he scuffles with the remaining acolytes. It's a blur of color and the communication link falls over, showing a lovely image of the dirt. The noises stop, and heavy footfalls shake the device; a second later, thick black claws pick up the communicator and hold it up, until Jetfire's old face is about pressed to the lens.] I'll not be havin' some half-arsed fairy-tale from the drones. Who's in charge here!? [And, oh lovely, black fuel-spittle sprays across the screen.] I'll take on all yer little pansy toys until you show yourself, "forgedfirsts"!

[Yeah, it was obvious Jetfire hadn't been totally listening. What he did catch he didn't understand. He's old, give him a break.]

[Thankfully, Mirage is from after Jetfire's time on Earth. After he gave himself to Optimus as a spiffy new jetpack. So the whole Decepticon-thing is no issue. What IS an issue, however is your entire existence.]

...dio mio...

Is...Jetfire? That is you correct?

[OH. Hello sir. Those doorwings flutter indignantly.]

I am not a hatchling! I am Mirage.

...I am...after your time.

[Whoa, they didn't get much older than that! Not even Kup needed a cane to get around!]

Hey, calm down old timer!

[Huh. He'd heard you ripped out your own spark there, pal. He'd also heard legends about Jetfire, and meeting the Seeker - even over the Link - was somewhat more lackluster than he'd always hoped.]

The drones... the acolytes aren't lying.

[The cane reminded him of Shockwave from his world, but only he wasn't as grumpy as this new arrival. Ravage watches the video and grins.]

Lul! U're funny!

[After tuning into the new broadcast slightly late, he'd only caught Jetfire's name. For a brief moment, he'd been somewhat happy for a potential familiar face again even though his Jetfire would be totally miserable without Jetstorm. The initial reaction had been short lived, however, as he realized what he was looking at. His opics widened and his mouth hung open slightly as he watched Jetfire make a total hash of things on the video.]

Hey, old timer. You might wanna be careful with waving around that cane, you could take an optic out with that thing. [Oh god some of that background looks familiar. Please say the temples all have identical acolyte rooms]

[He winces at the spittle spray.] You might wanna calm the frag down as well, rusty.

[Skyfire has to stare for a moment. Mostly because he's already imagining the fun that Starscream will have with this.

But then he remembers his manners.

The drones are telling the truth, I'm afraid.

[Jetfire... isn't sure what he's supposed to feel about all that, so let's just give him a moment where he drags a hand down his faceplates.]

I don't believe the drones deserve that sort of abuse, really, especially since they're speaking the truth. None of us, except the Acolytes and the Firstforged, which are thirteen but only seven are marginally available to us, are native to this reality.

And they're just doing the job assigned to them, so it would seem needless to... er, smack them around.

[Jetfire sighs and shakes his helm.]

There's one to the temple you woke up in, yes. You have a glyph on your upper arm, it should reveal which Firstforged you're aligned with.

[U WANNA GO M8 I'LL BASH UR PROCESSOR IN SWEAR ON ME MOTHERBOARD]

...Not very? You look like if you made any sudden movements you'd fall to pieces, old timer.
