[The audio starts up out of the blue, with only a brief pause at the beginning. Even so, every word seems deliberate and carefully chosen.]

Sorry about the timin'a this, but... I've been thinkin' a lot lately. Dangerous habit, I know.

This is the third multidimensional hub I've been in. I've gotten ripped out of dimensions more than I can explain. I've gone backwards in time twice... forwards once. Turned into a human and a cat. Heh, got haiku-powered jet boosters for a while. I rebuilt my own legs from scratch. I've had my processor picked over more times than I'd like. I've lost more friends than I ever wanted to... and made a few more than I've expected. Including a few that were too stubborn to give up on me when they should have. I've seen how how our wars start... and I've seen them end.

And the one ending was enough. Three hubs has been too much, and I'm too old. I know too much that would compromise this Cybertron's chance at having its own future.

I can't stay.

I have a few things to finish up, still, but in a week... I'm leaving. I've heard rumors of a place in the Outlands that could use someone like me, and I've dug out the clues I need to get there.

I'll be contacting a few of you individually; this is what the humans call the Season of Giving, and I have things to give you. Call them parting gifts if you will.

{{Individuals on this list will be getting special presents as listed, though if Barricade is so much as a passing acquaintance of his you can expect a few cubes of high grade left outside your door (or a six-pack of beer if you're human).))

Hey, now. Let's not get hasty!

[give it to him he will devour it ~~no that's not the birth of alcoholism shhhh~~]

I don't want to flirt with him. I want to have normal conversations.

Are you sure? I mean I could just leave it at freakin' you out, since you said that's what you wanted...

[No he's not actually that mean.]

Really? You're missing out, then. Empty flirting provides hours of entertainment you know.

You know what terrifies me? Random cubes of high grade appearing outside my room door.

[GOOD]

It's boring.

If I wasn't sure this was reverse psychology I'd pile 'em so high you'd never get out of your room.

Oh? Have you tried?

Oh, that would be a shame. To have more high grade than I know what to do with.

[SO DEADPAN]

Yes. With you and Knock Out. It's a very dull way of conversing.

A terrible shame, that. But I only have enough to give out one each.

Really? I've always found the opposite. People make such interesting faces when y'do it... doll~

Maybe if I send you some candid pictures I'll get more than one?

[he's grinning like an asshole, wow]

I'll have to save it for a special occasion, then. When they're really not expecting it.

Maybe. Let's see the goods and I'll decide if they're worth it~

[Selling out for high grade, for shame.]

Oh, no one ever expects the pet names. Especially when you tailor them to folks.

Sure, let me just spend a few days looking for a camera.

[he doesn't have a problem SHUT UP]

I'm good enough at that, just haven't been doing it recently.

You've only got a week. I'm patient but I'm not that patient.

[Dude maybe we should set up an intervention.]

You haven't? Well that's a shame. Everyone could use a good pet name. Or an embarrassing one.

Guess you won't get any then, you're missing out.

[he's fine for now B(]

Embarrassing ones are more fun.

Bummer. Suppose I'll just have to be content with my imagination.

[His extremely overactive imagination.]

Oh, they can be good and embarrassing all at the same time.
