Ah!Thisthingisfinallygettingasignal. [Blurr’s face shows up. It’s been weeks since he posted and he looks tired, scratched and in need of a good rest, but he’s smiling.

Because he's in the wastelands the communication is filled with static and sometimes it might fail completely.]

Greetings! I hope everyone's^{doing well. It's been}some time and now I'm afraid I need your help. [He moves to show rusty old trailer next to him, on its side.]

I replaced the tires of the trailer and tried to the fix the broken _{axels but there}was just so much I could do with something so old and rusted. I’ve been trying to flip it to the right position for hours but I do not process the necessary strength to do that. And in case you are wondering why I ^{want to take this} old thing to the Haven…

[Blurr opens the back of the trailer and sure it’s filled with wheels. Long lasting and highly durable, so durable they survived to this day untouched by time.

Merry belated Christmas, people.]

Just fell out of the big rip in the sky, yeah.

[She tilts her head, watching him. Well, yeah, they were obviously decorative but Blurr wouldn't be the first 'bot she's seen with wheels everywhere and did he say drive.]

You transform?

[The question is a mix of curious squee and incredulity. Full-body transforms were rare and short-lived.. and Blurr can just do it? Shiiiiny.]

And how are you ma-na-gi-ng? I know it's _{hard when}you are new, specially if you are an organic.

[He makes good use of those wheels, trust him.]

All Cybertronians do that. My _{alt mode} is a racing car. Imthefastestmechalive. [Boy, doesn't he sound proud of that.]

Getting by. I have some time before I have to worry about compatible power sources.

[She looks down at her armor and sighs.]

Do I really look that squishy? Or is it just that I'm short?

[It's still weird to keep getting mistaken for human, ok.]

How do you keep it stable for that long? Aren't there routing issues with power and fluids?

[She's talking faster, about to wind up into a zillion questions, but she stops. Tact, Alia. Blurr run away quick before you end up getting scienced!]

Could you show me?

You never know what could ^{happen or if the} medic would be able to fix you in case something goes wrong, madam. It's _{better to} visit them for a check up sooner than later.

Oh no no no It's just..you look like a human. You aren't one?

[Sorry, he doesn't know better.

At the question, Blurr's optics gets brighter and he looks flustered.] I don't usually talk about my fluids with people I've just meet..

[Blurr likes people who talks fast, he has no problems with that. Being scienced on the first date, tsh, tsh.]

I can, if that's WHAT you want.[He smiles and transforms. In a matter of seconds there's a blue racing car where Blurr was standing.]

Yes yes I hear you.

[She sticks her tongue out at Blurr.]

No. I didn't even think I looked that much like a human until I got here and everyone started saying I was!

[But hey argument over let's science this is so cool. And don't worry Blurr if there is seriously sciencing going on she'll buy you dinner first she's classy.]

Wow.

Just trying to help, miss. Can I know your name?

[He blinks. In car mode that translates as the car lights blinking, basically.]

My mistake _{then. What are}you, if you don't MIND me asking?

[Oh, dinner even? /swoons.]

Others turn into different sort of vehicles or even weapons.

Alia. I'm a reploid.. a kind of really advanced robot. I heard that I'm not the first reploid to be here, though.

[She sighs. And then goes back to peering curiously at the car. Oh my.]

If you're all supposed to be from here.. well, here of the future.. how do you set your alternate forms? I didn't think that cars and stuff were common here.

NicetomeetyouAlia. Is that like being an A.I? [He's thinking she must be like the Brave Police members.] Humans made you too?

[He waves his mirror, as if saluting her.]

Cybertronians have ground vehicles TOO but I have this alt mode because I've been in Earth.

Well, we're all AIs by default... And yeah. The first of us were made by humans. That's not the case so much anymore, though.

Well, it's not a bad disguise if you want to keep your trip on the down-low. Makes sense.

Not the case? Might I ask what changed?

I was an Elite Agent, he likes to keep a low profile while on missions.

We took over making new reploids after a while. Humans had other things to worry about.

Not sure how low your profile would be.. I know some car fanatics who would try to make off with you in that form.

[Blurr transforms back to his robot mode in seconds.]And humans don't have a problem with you doing that? They don't want to have the full control?

Some tried that. [Blurr looks uncomfortable.] ButIdontreallywanttotalkaboutit.

They don't have much choice. We've outnumbered them for a long while. Every so often you get a bunch of assholes, but... Well, they mostly stick to their zones and we mostly stick to ours and everyone gets along.

[Well if Blurr doesn't want to talk about it, Alia's not going to pursue it because yeah, that probably didn't go well.]

When people that different ^{clash there's} always problems but I'm glad that you all are trying to keep things civil. Primus _{knows not} all of us managed to do that.

[Thanks Alia, he appreciates that.] Can you can transform by any change too, madam?

Guess so. Funny to think of it that way.

[Sigh.] Nope, I don't transform. I know a couple 'roids who can, but I'm not sure I want the price that goes with that either way.

[Blurr frowns slightly. Or that would be do if he had real actual brows.] What sort of price is that?

The reploids I know have to read another 'roid's DNA data to transform.. it can have some nasty side effects from the memory and stuff that inevitably comes with the data.

That doesn't sound like a very efficient way to do it, no.

This might be a personal questions but what sort of energy do you need to survive? The others robotic non cybertronians here had their engines upgrades so they could process energon.

It's pretty wild but yeah, no thanks.

[She sighs.]

I'm aware. I need to find a medic-type to talk to about it. I have a small stash of power but it's not going to last forever. Energon's a bit too strong for me right now. Been working on designing the update, but kinda can't apply it to myself.

You wouldn't happen to know anybody good at that, would you?

One of the medics here it's from my world too, her name is Red alert. She's a really good medic and she has a femme frame too, perhaps you would feel comfortable talking to her about this?

Well, I'm not going to say no if I can get someone who knows their way around a lady.

[She's snickering just a tad.]

Thank you. I'll make sure to comm her.

She does and she's really good at her job too, you won't be disappointed.

You are welcome.

You be careful, ok?

I will.
