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.]

Albert, it's nice to see you again.

Trailers are usually not something we transform into, they're extra equipment.

[tearsofsteel]

Like extra storage.

Hate to tell you, but it looks pretty rusted.

[raceme]

That's it.

Yes, I know. There's no use to _{it but what is} inside it's really valuable for my kind. Those are Cybertronian tires, way more long lasting than the ones made on Earth.

[tearsofsteel]

So you need some kind of means to get them there.

Can I ask what they're made of?

[raceme]

Yes, a strong pair of hands. Or trusters. Sentinel and Barricade are coming to help.

I don't know the specifics, I never manufactured wheels but the Cybertronians wheels are more long lasting and strong than the Earth ones.

[tearsofsteel]

...your guy's names can be too apt at times.

But, hmm...never thought wheels would be a valuable resource. They're on your legs, after all.

[raceme]

[Blurr gives him a sheepish look at that.] We aren't very good at names...

But that's why they're valuable! With time those needs to be replaces.

[tearsofsteel]

Humans more or less do the same thing, we just lose the meaning over time.

...didn't realize you had to manually replace them.

[raceme]

Really?

We do, it's not too hard to do at least. We don't even need a doctor for that, most of us know how to do it.

[tearsofsteel]

Yeah better than having to completely reassemble yourself.

[raceme]

We can do that but it's not fun if our bodies get that broken. Usually that implies and explosion.

[tearsofsteel]

That's pretty impressive, I'm sure a lot of us organics would be grateful for that...

Well, most.

[raceme]

Yeah, we can self destruct. Itsnotnice.

[At that he let's go a soft, dark chuckle.] I've missed your humor Albert.

[tearsofsteel]

Not nice for anyone.

[He actually smiles at that.]

Glad to be missed.

[raceme]

[Smiling is good Albert, do it more often :)]

Good friends always are.
