ITEM DROP
A weak dawn breaks, the distant star beginning the slow rise that will take it across Cybertron's 32 hour day, offset by the brilliant lamp in Prima's sector.
Even with the minimal light that it exudes, however, it's enough to know that something is different.
Something has happened.
Something smells fresh, and new, and an awful lot like....lumber?
Yes, it's definitely lumber, and those with finer sensors might also detect a hint of freshly pressed metal sheeting next to it. In fact, there seem to be veritable piles of both, gleaming in the morning 'sun.' You can find steel girders, wooden planks, trusses, tools, and what looks like a good half of a bright orange Home Depot with a few, unglyphed employees still wandering around in a daze. There's almost anything you'd need to build any sort of establishment--doors, windows, roof shingles, concrete and duracrete powder in giant, Cybertronian-sized bags...
There's everything, of course, except for paint. Strangely (or not so strangely), that all ended up with Swindle.
Still, this is good luck! There might be a few plants in the home and garden department for the human types, and there's an entire steelyard for the robot types. That doesn't explain the human-sized hamster balls or the entire gingerbread cottage (complete with a very confused old woman), but surely there is something in here you could use? That very unassuming Sailor Moon wand, for instance...nothing could go wrong with that, now could it?
Of course not!
So go forth, dig for treasure, and build to your heart's content...
((So here are the item drop notes!
--Feel free to tag in below with action-spam of your character discovering the new items and trying to take them from each other/sharing them around!
--Your character may find and pick up anything that you'd expect to find in a standard hardware store (of the human OR Cybertronian variety).
--IF your character is claiming the entirety of any one item (EX: I HAVE ALL THE WRENCHES GUYS HAHAHAH) or claiming one of the specialty items (such as the Sailor Moon transformation wand) you MUST post below and say so in the post header. This time around, it is first-come, first snag. Next time, we'll change the process up to give everyone a chance!
--Yes, the Sailor Moon Wand DOES at least put you in the dress, regardless of size or species. That seems to be all it is capable of, though, so no moon prism power for you.
--All of the unglyphed arrivals will spend the first few days acting like normal. The Home Depot employees will either show you around or claim they aren't getting paid enough and leave. The old woman might yell at you to get off her 'lawn,' or, if you're a child, she'll invite you in for tea and cookies and try to bake you in her oven. Strangely, however, after a few days they all simply vanish. Observant folks might notice them heading straight for the badlands. Feel free to capture any that you wish before this though!))

He tried to reach for them but just couldn't manage without putting down his remaining goods and instead sort of just, swiped at the air. ... If you squinted, it wasn't entirely pathetic.

"Settle down, Lord Starscream. All I said was that I was helping you. I've already gotten all I need."

"Come along then," he said in his favourite 'I'm-in-charge-here-and-you're-not' voice. "And you will walk beside me." He might've made poor decisions in the past, but that didn't mean he was at all keen to let Airachnid loiter behind his back -- especially when his vision was so limited.
And while he certainly wasn't going to lead her to the cave he'd been building in, he'd seen her glyph, and Maximo's temple was close enough that her help would benefit him. It was only a pity that she had a mark at all; he'd have liked to have been able to send their master after her. After all, he still hadn't seen Liege Maximo fight, and given the mech's build, Starscream could only imagine it would be quite the show.

"So, what do you need all this for, hm?"

"And yourself, Airachnid? You said you had what you need. Well, what exactly did you need things for"

"Yes. Quite." This pan was so dead it was reanimated as a zombie. But on to a topic that while no less creepy, was at least more relevant than Airachnid's home renovation projects.
"I couldn't help but notice you're without your Insecticon. And by the way, how did your little ambush go anyway?"
