[VIDEO][TRANSMITTING FROM THE MAXIC SECTOR]

[youhavebeenswindled]

Well hey there everyone! Since we seem to have a few newcomers recently, I would like to extend a hand of welcome to them, and of course to let them know of the fine services I offer! First off, I should introduce myself! The name's Swindle, and I'm... a merchant, to say the least. Or entrepreneur, whichever works for you~

So! Need a weapon? An upgrade? Or perhaps you need some tools and other precious things that you've lost and would like found? Well, I'm just the person to help you out with that! So what do my services cost? Well, in the absence of an economy we'll have to work that out using the good old-fashioned barter system.

I just thought I should get this out there~ I'm always happy to help Cybertronians and organics in need.

[Lol what are Autobots and Decepticons?

But now to business.]

[Private to Skinny!Scream]

This took longer than I would have liked, but I do happen to have some of the items you've asked for! The other item of a delicate nature I'm afraid I haven't had the opportunity to obtain, and I must apologize for that.

But still, what I have are still here if you need them~


[Private to Wheeljack]

I happen to have the proper components for several different kinds of grenades and other fun explosives.

Now you can blow yourself up knowing that you're using the right equipment.


[Private to Pink!Scream]

Ah yes, you wanted a list of my inventory didn't you?

It's about time. And I want to see the wares before we start this bartering process.

[Having expected this Swindle replies without missing a beat.]

Is that an indication that you want to meet up someplace?

[my_own_trope]

Of course it is. And bring these if you have them in your inventory:

[sending a list of more relatively common tools, and some things that if constructed in the right way might just lead to explosives.]

[youhavebeenswindled]

[Swindle never asks or cares what people do with what he sells them; so if he wonders about the possibilities of explosions, he doesn't show it.]

Good news! I happen to have most of these!

Any particular place you want to meet up?

[my_own_trope]

If you can cart your wares to Liege Maximo's quadrant then I would prefer to rendez-vous there.

A thought occurs to me; have you already been approached about ... organic fuel. I mean, er, fuel for organics?

[He's trying to say 'food,' Swindle]

[youhavebeenswindled]

Liege Maximo's place? That's where I happen to be right now! How convenient.

[Seems to be a bit odd for a robot to ask about food but.]

No, can't say I have. The organics are able to look after themselves aren't they?

[my_own_trope]

They're organics -- such fragile things. If you can scrounge up some of their; fuel have it ready.

I will meet you here: [ping-a-ling-location-ping]. I trust that will work for you?
