Gathering

[trionicpolarity]

[This is a post. Within this post exist Prima, Liege, and A3. They exist here for the purposes of wrapping up previous conversations/plots or starting new ones. They will exist here for about a week, and all conversations that occur therin will be considered to have taken place PRIOR to the Pillar Event.

Alpha Trion can be found anywhere around his temple, or alternatively can sometimes be caught exploring the wastelands outside of the Haven. He's just as likely to get hold of you randomly one day while testing out the link device, however.

Prima can be found only in his tower. He's much more difficult to get hold of, but will surface for urgent matters and can be contacted through the Link...even if he'll be slow to reply.

Liege Maximo can be found in his many labs. He's been in a mood lately, but most would call it a 'good' mood, which means he's looking for people to interact with. Or on. If he's been in contact with you before he'll seek you out either in person or through an encrypted channel on your link device. Otherwise you will likely have to run into him.

To have a conversation with any of them, just specify WHO and WHERE or LINK in the title of your reply. Any action will be actionspam~]

Comments

PRrrrrrrrrrrima | Link!

[happyduckbutt]

[He's a little hesitant to try contacting the Firstforged since he doesn't want to be a bother, but no one else had really given him much by way of answers when he'd brought up the most recent change in his glyph. So who better to ask?]

...Prima? Are you there? Uh, if you're busy, I'll understand.

Video!

[primianpolarity]

[It is at least a day before there is a response...but, amazingly, there is one.]

I have some. Small. Amount of time right now.

Something has been testing the borders...

[He looks distant for a moment, but then refocuses.] Never mind. Did you have a question for me?

A3 | that huge library | action

[thxforthememories]

[He should be doing what he promised Blurr he would do. But... Kay still takes priority. Kay will always take priority. Which is why he's been browsing for anything regarding human combat techniques. How to apply them to her.]

[He's deeply buried in one such book, paging through it with careful efficiency. It hasn't occurred to him he might not be alone here. He's been alone in the library so often before, why wouldn't he be now?]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[Alpha Trion feels...better about Kagerou now that he did once. Their relationship is still an uneasy one, but Kagerou still graces his hallways and Kagerou still spends his time learning, and that if nothing else confirms Alpha Trion chose well.]

You spend plenty of time reading, Kagerou...

Have you ever tried writing?

[He's sitting at a chair. A maroon chair, that he absolutely blends into as if he's been sitting there for quite some time.]

A3 | Cat Roooooom

[namesnotprowl]

[Barricade admittedly doesn't stop by Alpha Trion's temple too often (or as often as he should), mostly because he keeps himself so busy. But sometimes you just have to take a break and get some new scenery. Or some old scenery, as it were.

He's well familiar with the room, though he was a lot smaller and furry-er the last time he was around. It's much nicer to visit in his proper body. Get a few from the right height. Even if he ends up as a perch for at least a half dozen meowing fluffballs, forcing him to hold still as they climb on his armor.

Don't want to accidentally hurt them, after all.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[The Cat Room is one of A3's favorite places to unwind, for much the same reasons Barricade enjoys it.]

...

[Well, perhaps not exactly the same reasons. Alpha Trion has never been a cat, himself, but he still enjoyed the company of the small creatures and he still enjoyed the way that caring for something else gave him time to think. There was plenty to think about these days.]

I think I know where to write you into what's called a 'will,' Barricade.

Prima | Around the temple/tower

[thankyou4myheart]

((ooc: it's not TECHNICALLY happened yet, but his current conversations started a day or few days ago, and I'm sure SOMEONE will eventually give him the "you should talk to your Firstforged" line, so...gonna figure he'd do that? =3 Although...since this isn't really an urgent matter, it's fine if he just runs into an Acolyte or whatever, I guess. =D;;;))


[Deckard's been told to seek out "his Firstforged", his . . . patron . . . or whatever, from what he could tell. So he's doing just that. He's returned to the temple he first woke in, and followed Acolyte instructions on where to maybe, hopefully find the great being.]

Prima | Around the temple/tower

[primianpolarity]

[There will be a lot of stairs to climb. It is a tower, after all! However, you'd notice that when coming around a curved set, there is a rather large being staring out the window. Glowing.]

...

[He stares for a bit, seeming very distracted. However, if you do not immediately move off, he'll speak.]

You are new.

A3 | Out by the Lake | action

[flashdrive]

[Not having an alt mode had it's downfalls, and even Rewind would admit to it as he ran out, seeing one of the rare times the Lambda wasn't messing up the star patterns. And he wasn't about to miss that opportunity. Datapad in hand, he heads towards the lake in question, head tilted up.

Time to chart what he and Chromedome had seen, extending the pad out and placing his fingers on it, pointing out specifics.

A lot of work ahead, this was.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[When Rewind approached the lake...he'd find it already occupied by a rather large mech, telescope in one hand and what could only be a Cybertronian backpack in the other. The backpack is sagging...datapads spilling out next to actual paper books, pencils, and styluses. He was much too focused on what was in the telescope set up beside him to notice that his methods of recording it weren't as orderly as he'd normally have them...]

Liege | Maxic Quadrant | Action

[fun_police]

[The quiet desolation of the frosted peaks was interrupted by the arrival of a single vehicle, headlights illuminating its way forward to a particular spot it seemed to find familiar. It's growling engine lowered in volume as it came to a stop, and panels shifted as Prowl changed into his bipedal shape.]

[A lot was on his mind as of late, which comes naturally when you're holding a secret operation right under the noses of your entire unit. A unit in a heavily occupied and heavily monitored location. A location where he recently discovered that he was being tracked - hence choosing to take a trip to the mountains.]

[He hadn't quite picked it up until recently, when his glyph had changed. Whoever had been shadowing him must be a stealth specialist, which narrows down the list significantly. It was nothing serious. But it was a problem that needed to be eradicated immediately.]

[The communicator in his arm activated itself:]

Chromedome, respond. I need to discuss a matter of urgent importance with you.

Link --> Action soon

[maxicpolarity]

[There would be a burst of static from Prowl's communicator--something unusual when inside the Haven. Unusual...and suspicious. A moment later, a different voice comes through.]

Indeed you do.

However, you may want some...additional information first.

A3 | Inside the Temple | action

[littlecrowgirl]

[You know what's a good idea? Not what Kay's doing. Some intense Ninja training inside the temple was probably not what Kagerou meant by 'keep practicing'. And that didn't involve dangerous parkour tactics either. But there were no obstacle courses, nothing she could really put to use.

So the temple was where it was at.

Thankfully, there's a bunch of ledges and platforms for the girl to climb, and let's just say, it did wonders for her upper arm strength.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[Alpha Trion's temple is certainly the perfect place to practice. He's collected all manners of junk from the junk-yard over the years to learn about...statues, machinery, book-cases, all of it meticulously organized by his acolytes. When jumping from one to the next, all sorts of surfaces present themselves...

Including the unexpected surface of Alpha Trion's face.]

K...Kay!

A3 | Library | Action

[wherenobotsgone]

[After talking to Jetfire and Cliffjumper about it, Skyfire did in fact start spending more of his time trying to find out as much as he could about different realities, and what kind of classifications for them existed.

It wasn't easy. The library was enormous, which meant that there was plenty of fascinating information, both of the kind he needed and the kind he didn't. And Skyfire... well.

He was easily distracted.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

Its not often I see someone in this section.

[Alpha Trion was passing by. He was often passing by, especially in the library where there were so many volumes to reference to solve the multitude of mysteries that Primus's world presented to him.]

Might I ask what you're looking for?

Prima | Action!

[young_upstart]

[He hadn't exactly felt comfortable going up here the first time, but no acolytes have appeared to bar him entrance or offer escort when he set foot into the tower now.

Hot Rod's a little hesitant as he makes his way up the steps. Part of him hopes the FirstForged isn't in at all, but then that wouldn't really get him anywhere, and then what would have been the point of coming up here?]

ACTION!

[primianpolarity]

[Its easy to see the glow of light that is approaching from in front of Hot Rod...descending the stairs even as he is ascending them. It's abrupt, when he arrives--obviously he was in a hurry. However, he does stop when he notices the Refugee, considering something for a moment.]

If you wish to speak, follow me.

[He continues on, moving past Hot Rod as he descends but going at a much more normal pace now.]

Liege | Maxic Quadrant | Action

[needlefingers]

[Unexpected things have happened, and for some reason Chromedome doesn't feel bad about them. Rewind had him break his needles, and now he can't do what Prowl wants him to. The very thought brings some satisfaction, though he knows that it won't stop Prowl for very long.

He's certain that Prowl is in the Maxic Quadrant somewhere, so he heads there and flips on his communicator.]

Prowl? Heeeeey, guess what. No, don't guess because you're not going to like it.

My mnemosurgery is out of commission. Just thought you should know.

ACTION

[maxicpolarity]

[For a moment, the line sounds like it is behaving as normal. Then, strangely, there is static.]

Mnemosurgery?

[A voice not far from Chromedome speaks.]

Now that sounds interesting.

Is this the mind control that Tarn was speaking of?

A3 | Library | Action

[4_toteachus]

[Four finds herself in the library from time to time. Why wouldn't she be here? After all, the library has always been a home to her. Being here often makes her miss her own library though, with her family. It's been so long though that she finds she's starting to miss them less and less.

The tiny stitchpunk has a large book on what appears to be art open on the floor. Hopefully she's not getting into anyone's way down here.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[Although hardly in the way, Alpha Trion does not notice 4 as he spots the open book on the floor. He reaches almost instantly to pick it up, aiming to keep his library organized (or as organized as possible) in case he won't be around for much longer to oversee it.]

...

[He's humming a tune.]

Leige | Action~

[fugitrix]

[ Arcee was a people watcher. It wasn't just the fact that she found socially interacting awkward-- it was the fact she enjoyed it. It was also terribly useful. She watches what goes on in her city, assessing certain things about the individuals that lived in the Haven. That one had a strange picking habit when they thought no one was looking, this one was a hoarder, the one there is one to keep an optic on.

It was a lonely way to live, but Arcee hadn't had much social connections in her lifespan to miss it.

Despite her time in the temple, she had yet to meet the First Forged that made it his base and had claimed her as his to watch over. She was hardly looking for him as she perches up in the high reaches of one of the labs, watching the acolytes come and go. It was just something to do. ]

Link / Action

[maxicpolarity]

[The Acolytes move with definite patterns...one of which she'd start to recognize after a while. They are often hurrying towards tasks, but every now and then one of them will slip into the shadows and just vanish, only to re-appear a while later. Upon closer inspection, the Acolytes which seem to disappear are actually still THERE in the shadows...just incredibly well concealed.]

They're almost as good as you, you know.

[The voice comes from her communicator.]

Liege Maximo | Around the Temple | Action

[originaldragoon]

[With her new job in the Police Force, and being the only Defense Committee member left, it had been some time since Rose had been at the Temple. She started to miss the solitude of the place and her room. At the moment she was going down the winding corridor towards that room, grateful that she still remembered the way.]

Action!

[maxicpolarity]

[As she passes through the halls, she would likely notice that one of the pillars isn't quite pillar shaped, at all.

Not only that, but it has glowing green optics. Liege seems to be deep in thought, his arms crossed and his motor running quietly.]

Alpha Trion | Exploring the wastelands | Action

[raceme]

[Blurr had been exploring, running up and down and looking everywhere, but he couldn't locate Wing, Rung or Drift. He tried, Primus knows he tried, but after spending all the day otuside the Haven the speeder decided that he had duties to attend back home and it was getting late. He would keep looking the next day, hoping for the best.

His tires hurt and he decided that this was a good moment to practice his new flying ability. He couldn't fly as fast as he runed yet, but he was sure one day he would learn how to do it.]

ACTION!

[trionicpolarity]

[From this vantage point just over the hill, Alpha Trion felt he could see just about everything. It was a lovely hill, perfect for surveying with the right equipment, and he was always eager to learn anything new...especially anything that he could document. His position would, perhaps, be right behind what seemed like an excellent launching pad for flight...]

Liege | Action~.

[treacherous_widow]

[Blackarachnia's been having trouble concentrating on her own projects since her glyph has been glowing brighter than ever before. It's left her.. wandering the various halls and labs of her Ferstforge's temple trying to clear her head.

The widow sticks to her beast mode for the moment, using it to scurry from room to room via the ceiling and various vents. Without really realizing it, she's heading deeper into the labs and potentially nearer to the bot she's aligned with.]

ACTION!

[maxicpolarity]

[There would be a noise ahead...the sound of someone occupying a room not far from her. If she looks forward towards it, she'd be able to see what looks like steam coming from an ominous doorway imbedded in the rock of the mountain.]

Liege | RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR ROOM | Action? :3c

[rednotbluethx]

[Frenzy's got a couple reasons to be here. Surprisingly, only one of them is a stupid one. So Frenzy makes his way to Liege's, searching for him, until finally he's pretty sure the guy's in this lab here.]

Heya! Liege! Open up! It's yer pal, Frenzy! Gotta couple things t'ask you!

[maxicpolarity]

[The door does open, surprisingly...and an Acolyte peers out.]

The Liege Maximo is busy at present--

[And a voice from inside the lab goes:]

Find out who it is, Sally.

[After which the acolyte continues.]

--and would like to know who wishes to speak with him.
