re_alignment | [Text] Oh the times, they are a-changin'

[Blitzwing had been busy.

Waking up in a strange room, to see a strange landscape out his window, and a strange piece of technology sitting nearby. Technology that he quickly dismantles to the best of his ability. Nothing personal, communicator, but when in doubt, take something apart. Nothing productive really comes out of that; the structure and materials is... Cybertronian in matter? But not the kind that he knows.

Next order of business is to put it back together and turn it on. A burst of static, probably from a wire he accidentally crossed. Whoops. But eventually it starts working, good as new, and he starts to dig. There's a lot of interesting footage on here, but he pays the most attention to this strange... thing. With revolving faces and utter nonsense that claims to be him. That won't do at all.

Eventually, a mass text is sent out to Haven. Although the contents seem to indicate that he meant for it to be an uploaded report to a specific person rather than being sent to everyone.]

Official Decepticon business, for the eyes of high clearance Decepticon officers only.

Designation: Blitzwing, Decepticon Weapons Engineer/Medic. Status Report: Unharmed. Woke in an unknown location. Diagnostics and examination reveal no changes, and personal inventory is unchanged: one (1) ice cannon. Additional supply has been found: one (1) unknown electronic device (from here on referred to as a "Communicator").

Examination of "communicator" contents reveal a potential imposter. With permission from Lord Megatron, will track the imposter and dispose of him.

Respond.

That was awfully coherent for you.

[what a surprise, almost dying still hasn't done anything for his attitude!]

Sir, with all due respect, I doubt that it's an imposter that you're thinking of. This place is not unknown for alternate realities. We have had an impressive influx of alternates of people who have been here previously, most right up until the arrivals of the apparent alternates. Please consider that it's quite possible this "imposter" you are referring to is not actually that, but another version from another reality. If that is the case - and I have reason to believe that it is - the other person has just as much right to live as you do. You are similar but separate individuals.

[Oh hey, a little bit of fiddling around and Blitzwing manages to get his own face on the comm. Admittedly, he doesn't look very different -- the same, slim blue face stares coldly into the feed. However, when he opens his mouth, there's the slightest view of a minuscule gap in his dental plating.]

Zhat was not meant for you, Autobot. And revealing your presence vas not zhe smartest decision.

I find that hard to believe. The physical and vocal similarities -- when the mech in question was not acting maniacal -- are too similar to be coincidence, even if the idea of "alternate realities" (which, scientifically speaking, seems only mildly plausible) is indeed true.

[have a little wave when blitzwing gets his video connection working]

I can read. I'd also be a lot more worried if your superiors could actually receive that message - which, funnily enough, won't be happening.

For some, the similarities seem to be close. For others, not so much.

I'm afraid I'm speaking outside of my expertise, though, I will admit. I'm not a scientist. I’m a detective in criminal investigations. But from everything I'm seeing, it's hard to ignore the possibilities.

How d'ya know yer not the impostor, though?

Because I am not hiding, and zhis... ozher "Blitzwing" is.

I would take zhat as a threat, if I didn't know any better.

At least you admit lack of experience.

Eizher way, I'm going to be looking furzher into zhings.

You would.

I'm not about to stop you wasting a load of time going to look for Megatron, though.

[he claps his hands together] Actually, I think I saw him head out towards this place called the Badlands! Probably to murder more defenseless Autobots.

If you find answers other than the ones I've come to believe, I hope you'll share them. As I said, I don't really know anything for sure and can only operate on what I believe I know so far. If I'm wrong, I'd like to know it.

Nah, I know the real Blitzwing, an' you ain't nothin' like him.

Clearly, like I haff been saying, you do not know zhe real one. Und if you know vhere zhese imposters are, I vill only ask zhat you tell me once.

[Yes, he is making a mental note of the "Badlands". If all else fails, it might be worth checking out. However...]

Zhe last zhing I will do is trust you. Und if I hear any word zhat you've done anyzhing, I can promise zhe repercussions vill not be pleasant.

I vas planning to, if I found Lord Megatron or zhe ozhers. But in the chance zhat I do not, given zhat you have shown so far zhat you are not hostile, I suppose I could inform you as well.

Guess I have nothing to be worried about, then!

Have fun with that futile search, I'm sure you'll find plenty of interesting data.

[Blitzwing just glares and, with a small huff, hangs up.]

I'm tellin' you! It's you!
