[Well that was the… oddest thing he’s woken up to in a while. He doesn’t usually wake up on an alter with robbed figures standing around apologizing for him being somewhere. A different Cybertron? Different how? That sounds impossible. He only waited around long enough for what they said to get boring and then he left. Now he has to figure out how to work this thingy he has. Hrm… what does this do…?]

Skylynx? Are you here, Skylynx?

[The sound of one claw tapping on the Link comes through before the video flicks on, showing bright yellow optics and a lean face crowned with horns. Those optics blink a couple times as the owner of the Link leans back slightly.]

I am trying to find my brethren, Skylynx. He is silver and blue, with red accents, and is about my height. [He pauses, snickering.] But he is not nearly as pretty as I am.

If you have seen him in his other form, I am sure you know. Tell him that Darksteel wishes to find him.
Skylynx if you hear this, I am coming to find you.

[He shuts off his Link and shortly after something that looks remarkably like a robotic gryphon can be seen flying out from Vector’s temple, in a spiral that becomes increasingly wide until it ceases all together. He can’t help it if he’s catching sight of things he’s curious about. What is all of this, he’s never seen a Cybertron like this one. His is certainly less… new than this one.]

He did. The body of the one called Megatron. But he was far more powerful than any normal Cybertronian, even in a mortal form.

[You seem sheepish, bro.

Darksteel tilts his head, raising his eyebrows. Why so incapable-of-blush-when-needed bro?]

Megatron... There is one called that, here. And one of the Firstforged has almost the same name.

[sdjfkds No he's going to look over here, where he can't see that disarming head-tilt business.]

There is? Perhaps I shall meet him. And the... FirstForged with his name too.

[But whyyyyyy :3 He chirps again, curious. If Kagerou was actually present he would probably have hugged him by now.]

There is. But the Firstforged... he's dangerous. You shouldn't meet him.

[No stop.]

[He just ducks his head, flicking his wings. Resisting the urge to make that same noise ~~because dammit Saejima programming animal instincts~~]

He is truly that dangerous? How interesting.

[Can't stop won't stop.]

[Darksteel has never made anyone react like this and it's confusing and interesting and fun in a way.]

Why are you doing that?

No. It's not interesting. He let one of the prisoners free, once. One of those who'd killed a lot of good bots. He doesn't care what happens to us -- he's just bad.

[NO DON'T.]

[And this isn't helping. He's so flustered and has no idea why.]

Doing... what?

Huh. Did he say why he did such a thing, or was it just... because?

[YEP.]

[He has no idea why either. Which is why it seems prudent for him to ask.]

You are... trying to hide?

He did it because he wished to. He wanted to release that... thing out onto the planet again. To let it hurt us again.

[... don't mind him if there's a long pause in the response. He just had to send a text for help. ~~Hopefully Power Joe doesn't mind.~~]

No. I'm... it's just a reaction.

He said this himself?

[Huh. Well that's weird. Oh well! He can wait.]

Ooh. A reaction to what?

Yes. He wouldn't explain beyond that.

[N-no stop asking questions he doesn't know how to answer.]

I'm. Not sure. Not really.

How strange.

[But he's curioooooooous.]

Huh.

Yes. And that's why you need to stay away from him.

...

Please.
