[Video][Open to all][The Return]

[megaton]

[He and his party have been returning for the last few days, a ragged, shaken group who are nevertheless still alive. They are survivors, and Megatron seems to take a sort of pride in that...walking tall and steady despite an obvious limp. A few blades are slung from his back like trophies, and one or two still have alien-looking hands attached at the hilt.]

I must admit concession to whoever told me it was folly to approach the badlands.

[Here he is. Returned. He wishes he could say it was a relief.]

You were right...

...but so was I.

[He tosses a blade down, letting it imbed in the safe soil at his feet.] Their numbers are greater than ours. If they should attack at full strength, I doubt we would last long.

So why do they not attack us yet?

[He smirks, but it's a bitter smirk.] I have a theory.

We may even be able to use it to our advantage.

Those who offered their support are welcome to this information. Those who did not? Well. We're all in this together, aren't we?

[It doesn't mean he's going to tell. Not right away.]

I'll be at the Hub if anyone wants to hear our stories. If there are any medics thinking about attending...you'll be needed.

[The ones who had come along had done amazingly given the lack of facilities and traveling circumstances, and more weren't going to hurt.]

Comments

ACTION

[raceme]

Usually useful when I'm working and people needs help. But it was really WEIRD at first just to...know. With nothing that explained the change.

[At that Blurr looks a bit sheepish.] Weapons aren't my specialty, those slow me down too much but I'm trying to learn how to use them. Cliff is helping. I'm open to more help, though.

ACTION

[megaton]

...so you were altered without your permission?

[Now that is interesting, and he glances briefly down to his own glyph.]

With your speed you would have a good handle on short or long distance. [He glances from the Glyph back to you.] In the arena, I'd have recommended long distance. Keep back from your opponent, because one hit from a giant like me could be bad news. [He smirks.] But you'd be hard to touch, I'd wager, and you're not small.

That is a good combination.

ACTION

[raceme]

Yes. [Blurr makes a wry face for a moment.] It was for the best but I don't enjoy the fact that the FirstForged, or whoever is doing is to us _{through our} glyphs, can change us like that.

[The advice gets a smile out of him.] I'll remember all that and yes, big guys like you are a problem when they get to him me. now, about your injuries...let me check those.

ACTION

[megaton]

I doubt you are alone in that opinion.

It may be something that we need to address, in case the lend of power can go the other way.

[So now he has another reason to run for Overseer.]

We'll just have to find you the right weapon. [He holds out an arm, and its fairly obvious that there are lots of little cuts and lashes--some with nasty bits of metal stuck inside.]

ACTION

[raceme]

I would be worried about people's sanity otherwise.

Hm. Agreed. [Oh boy, let Blurr know about that. He won't oppose, he will actually be interested in what Megatron has to say about it.]

Cliffjumper thinks the same. I need _{one that doesn't slow} me down too much so It can't be too heavy.

[Blurr hovers closer to give the arm a better look. Because surprise, he can fly now! In case he didn't mention that the last time they talked. He's doing it because Megatron's like 3 times his size and he needs to see the cuts properly. He frowns.]

Let's find you a place to sit comfortably and I will work on those.
