Where... am I?

[The feed is shaky and full of static: you can barely see Shira laying down in front of the communicator. The Sabertoothed Tiger sounds completely lost and she is also whining softly, almost too low too hear.]

I remember... The human that could talk? No, it's impossible. Humans don't talk. Diego?

[She tries to get back on her feet now, but immediately falls back down. The cat doesn't look hurt, thankfully, and there is no blood visible.]

I can't smell the grass. I can't smell the trees! Manny? Oh holy iceberg, I can't believe I am saying that but... Cid? Grandma?

I think there was a frog man in my dream. And metal. And creatures made of metal. But it can't be.

Where am I?

[Uh . . . talking animal. Talking EXTINCT animal. ~~And what does she mean, humans don't talk!?~~]

[Different realities . . . obviously she's not extinct - and she /IS/ speech-capable - where she's from. Huh.]

[And belatedly, Deckard realizes that he, ah, probably should have done this as an audio-only to help cut down on her confusion. Well . . . too late now, and she'll have to learn sooner or later.]

Miss, maybe I can help. My name is Deckard. Will you describe the area around you?

[Well, duh. Of course humans don't talk. Where are you from, Dinosaur Land?]

[Thankfully for you, Deckard, Shira has troubles focusing, and she doesn't notice immediately that you are Big and Made Of Metal. In fact, she haven't yet seen the communicator and her surroundings.]

I... Don't know. But there is no ice. Why? There are always ice and snow. And trees! But I can't smell anything here. Just... metal. Lots of it.

[Unfortunately, this entire WORLD is made of metal so you are not really helping, kitty.]

[Deckard frowns, worried.]

Stay where you are. I'll try to track you down. Are you injured at all?

It's not like I can move.

[Shira growled. She was beginning to feel better, true, but walking as still out of the question. She was tempted to crawl away to look for a shelter. The tiger felt way too exposed here.]

Who are you anyway? Why would I trust you?

Edited 2013-11-07 08:23 (UTC)

Right, sorry . . . I should have introduced myself. My name is Deckard, with the Brave Police. And . . . well, I can't prove my intentions to you. [He can't make her trust him.] But I give you my word that I just want to help if I can.

You already told me your name... I just wanted to know where you stood here. Are you with Blurr or something? With the Police Force here?

I...

[He did? Damn...granted, he's been busy to the point of exhaustion, but maybe he should get his memory units checked.]

Sorry about that. The past several days have been frazzling. But yes, I'm with the police force here. Blurr is a friend of mine.

[More a friend of the previous him, but /he/ is getting to know the robot and has certainly enjoyed his company so far. They'd already resolved to renew/reforge the previous friendship, so he's confident in claiming as much.]

Don't worry about that. I imagine it's the pleasure of metting me that is scrambling your brain... Or what you have for a brain in any case.

Well, a friend of Blurr is a friend of mine. I could use some help, to be honest. I am still a little shaky on my paws, and the Junk Pile is not safe.

[That gets a warm chuckle out of him.]

Yes, I'm sure that's exactly it.

I'll right. If you're safe for the moment at least, then don't move. I'll trace the signal from your device and I should be there shortly.

Ey kitty, you are back.

You don't remember us?

[The reaction is immediate, of course.]

DON'T CALL ME KITTY YOU OVERgrown scratch... post...

Blurr...?

Oh, holy permafrost, it's not possible. The whole "metal world" was a dream. It must have been a dream!

YES![That's exactly what he was expecting. He's so glad you remember him. Not so much that you are back and therefore unhappy.]

I was wondering what happened to you_{you got me worried lady and I am happy to see that you are alright.

Uh, sorry that it wasn't a dream, no.}

'Lady'? Are you trying to save your paintjob or something? Urgh, my head.

[Shira shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts.]

So, I am back in metal land, hu? Dammit. [She frowned.] How long was I gone?

You hurt me Shira, you don't believe that I'm always this polite? [Friendly teasing, get.] Do you _{need to} see a doctor?

Many weeks, probably even months.

You are always this polite when your paintjob is at risk. [Get some friendly teasing in return.] And how is that big green mate of yours? Did you have a litter finally?

Nah, no doctor. I just need some time to rest. Food would be good too, but if I remember right, meat is not common here.

That long? I wonder how you managed to stay alive for all this time! [She smirked.]

But it's not at risk now, since I am far FAR far away from your claws. Andscratchingpeopleisnotnice. [HJAGJHS Shira.] B-Big green mat--LITTER!? No,no, I'm not seeing anyone now. [Technically not true but...shhh.]

We probably have some good things for you in the pantry, don't worry.

Uhm....well, actually.....IkindofgetmurderedbutIgotbetter.

Oh, but it will be in the future. It will be. And I am not nice by definition, Blurr! I was a pirate and all. And I am sure you have a mate somewhere. Just give me some time and I will find who, trust me on this.

You got MURDERED?! By who? Why? Is he, or she, still alive somewhere?

Attacking a police officer is illegal! But I guess ...so it is being a pirate.... W-why is me having a partner so important? [Shira staph.] AndImNOTsayingIhaveone.

Yes, it's a long story. it was a giant Decepticon named Tarn, he hurt other people. He's now in prison.

I just LOVE doing illegal things, you know that Blurr. And of course it's important! It's a really valuable bit of teasing material! And if you don't have one, why are you so flustered? [NEVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!]

Well, at least it's one less murderer to worry about. How are you? You are not hurt anymore, are you?

I'll bite and ask WHY. Why it is so fun to do illegal things that many people enjoys that, hm? Imnotflustered. Why don't we talk about your mate instead? Do you purr around him? [/SHAKES FIST AT.]

No, I'm fine. I woke up here again after a week. Feeling a bit odd, but all if mostly alright.

Well, my dear, it's the thrill, the thrill! The adrenaline that makes you go faster, be stronger! Did you never feel that?

Of course I purr around Diego! He is such a good looking member of my specie~ [/purrs] And if you don't have a mate, I will help you find one~

Well, it's good to know, but if you could try to never do that in the future...

I do, but not when I'm doing illegal things. I feel that when I'm pushing someone, when I'm doing my job right. At the end of the day I can still look myself in the mirror, it's more than most criminals can do. I'm not saying it's your case, but you get the idea.

UHm....[OH Primus, why did he ask!?]...NononononNONONnono that wont' be necessarybutthankyou.

I won't, it wasn't all that fun. I'm sorry.

Another talking animal? Seriously?

[hi hello resident jerk here]

Oh, and another tall metallic moron? I thought we had reached the quota. My bad.

[You are not the only one that can be a jerk but nice to meet you anyway!]

Ooh, and one with attitude. Well, enjoy staying on a planet that isn't built for you and doesn't want you.

[let's ignore how the other organics are settled in fine. yes good]

Yes, a cat with attitude. Better than a moron with an ego way bigger than it should be.

And if I understand well, this planet doesn't exactly wants your kind either and regularly tries to kill you in some creative way. And it's your own land!

Edited 2013-11-07 14:01 (UTC)

I'm not a moron, and what makes you think I have an ego?

[sentinel are you seriously pulling that]

Regularly tries to kill? That's a strange way of saying provides everything we need to live.

With all that metal, I would have thought you saw yourself in a mirror at least once, but I see that you are not even able to do that. How did you survive until now? Who was the unlucky soul who had to protect your arrogant ass?

So, you need monsters, giant glowing things in the sky, murders, psychotic robot killers and raccoons? Your species is a strange one, I must admit.

Edited 2013-11-07 14:25 (UTC)

That... do you even know how metal works?

[he drags both hands down his face and vents heavily] Murderers, raccoons and the Lambda aren't natural products of the planet. Why am I even surprised an organic doesn't know what it's talking about?

We don't have much of it back home, I admit, but you can't tell me that with an entire PLANET made of metal, you never saw your reflection anywhere?

Well, why aren't you fixing that Lambda thing if your species is so mighty? From my point of view, you are not much smarter than those 'organics' you keep mentioning. And I am a she, you overgrown tin-can.

Of course I know what I look like. I don't understand what that has to do with anything.

Mmmaybe because fixing interdimensional rips in space isn't something that can be done quickly? What would you suggest - meowing and scratching it with your tiny little claws?

[oops you hit a nerve with that organic comment] Don't compare us to organics. Cybertronians are nothing alike that waste of a species.

You know, I don't think I'm ever going to get over seeing animals talking here.

Welcome to Cybertron. You aren't the only species who ain't native and stuck here.

Oh, what about me? Talking humans! THAT is impossible back home!

I know that, I met a few other 'organics' or whatever. Almost ate one too.

You got a point there, lady. ... Sir. Whatever.

But, weird - you look like some prehistoric animal, but going by what you've just said, sounds like evolution made a u-turn and we humans ended up in your boots... paws. Whatever.

[He sneers] Yeah, well, try not to do that again. I know there ain't much organic life beyond humans here, but I think I may know where I can find you some chickens... Otherwise, you should probably not eat us humans. For you that may just be the run of the mill chain of command but here it qualifies as murder and murder usually involves a lot of politics and punishment. 'Sides, I'm quite fond of most of the humans and related here, and you seem much too nice for me to fear for their lives and consider talkin' to someone about keeping an eye on you.

[tl;dr DON'T EAT HUMANS OR HE'S GOING TO CALL THE COPS]

Lady please.

Oh no. To be fair, my pack never interacted much with humans but they weren't at my "paws" or whatever. My mate had previous experience with them though.

Oh, no need to be so stressed, human. It was just a little mistake on my part, and to be fair, Barricade looked really small and organic at the time. And I don't eat humans, few packs ever do. You have a tendency to come set our dens on fire if we do.

Alright, lady it is.

Ah. Gives the prehistoric beasts a bit of sympathy. From how we see it, giant monsters jump upon our weaker, early human selves, eat our children, steal our wives. [smirk] But, you know, every once in a while I find some good meat. Not much, and it usually comes in cans, but... Creature like you lives on a carnivore diet, right? [He needs to talk to Ventus about his chickens...]
