[Hey, guys, it's Ambulon's turn for the obligatory apology!]

My apologies for my behavior. I seemed to have been affected by the... Pillar, I assume. Though it appears so were many others. I know it's no excuse [actually, it kind of is], but what I said - what I did - I did not mean. I... Once again, I apologize, and if there is anything I can do to make up for my mistakes, let me know. I should be returning to work soon.

[Locked to Sentinel Prime]

What I did to you - I know an apology may not be enough, but I... I assure you, what I did, I wasn't-- I wasn't in my right mind. I know this still isn't enough to put your mind at ease, but I am... so sorry.

[Locked to Elita and Drag Strip]

I [hurm]-- For what I said, in regards to your... genders. And among other things. I-- Yeah, I'm sorry about. That.

[Locked to the Police Force]

Um, sorry for causing you trouble. But, my memories are a little hazy. Did anything happen between my fight with Pharma and me being thrown into jail?

[Locked to Pharma]

I may not have done the right thing, fighting you - but I want answers.

[Locked to Chromedome]

I have a couple questions to ask. They're very personal, and I'm not sure I should be asking them, but... I need to know.

[Locked to Wheeljack and Barricade]

My drone has been damaged. I don't know what's wrong, or how to fix it, but I might have punched it while I was... under the influence. Perhaps one of you may know how to repair it?

... Yes, I don't think that would be a good idea at all, but it seems like he was distracted from that, so hopefully it won't be an issue.

[Elita shakes her helm, optics narrowing a little.]

At current, no. I was planning though, and I would still like to, but it might be a good idea to keep an optic on the pillar from the surface as well, so when the expedition leaves, I'll go out into the junk pile.

Good. [sigh] I find this Megatron to be more rational and likely to compromise and listen. The one from my universe was insufferably... not.

Good thinking. You just... be safe, all right? Your mind is a lot more sound than a few of the blokes here.

[invisiblepinkboat]

That does seem to be a... theme, because that could be said of the one from mine as well, though I've hardly dealt with him directly. I've heard quite a few stories, however.

[This might be audio, but Elita's smile can easily be heard in her voice as she next speaks.]

I try, at least, though I admit I can sometimes get ahead of myself. But don't worry, Am, I will. Most probably nothing will happen, but you never know.

Would you like me to check in periodically until the pillar falls?

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

Well, there's also the Megatron from that inverted reality. Apparently Decepticons are the good guys. [smirk] At least he seems trustworthy - even more so than the Megatron we're talking about.

And, yes. Please do. As I said, I'm sure, I'd go with you, but... Probably not a good idea.

[audio/locked]

[invisiblepinkboat]

Well, if it is true, that everything is opposite from how we normally know it, he ought to be trustworthy, compared to any of the other Megatrons.

[She grins a bit dryly at that, but given that so far there's been no proof that he's lying, the simplest, most expedient thing is cautious acceptance of it as fact.]

And I'll do that then. [Another little lopsided smile, not dry this time.] At least it'll give me someone pleasant to talk to while waiting if nothing happens.

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

I'd still remain a bit apprehensive, however. I've seen good mechs like that inverted Megatron break to pieces under the right amount of pressure.

[smirks] Of course. And if you're injured and need help, immediately call for a doctor. I can't be the one to pick you up, but I'll be there--despite the clinic--when you get there. So, basically, hopefully I won't be seeing you for a while or at least not on a MARB.

[audio/locked]

[invisiblepinkboat]

Maybe. But if Optimus Prime has lasted as long as he has, I don't doubt somebody like an opposite reality version of Megatron ought to be able of the same feat.

[Chuckling, Elita nods on her end, seen or not.] If I was injured, I'd put it in your capable hands to get me a transport. But since I am going to keep distance to the Pillar, I doubt injuries will happen, so don't worry.
