[No video for you, kids. Gunmax isn't about to put his face all over some mystery space internet. You do get to listen to him complain, though.]

Oookay then, now that I'm pretty sure I'm not having some kind of sensory malfunction, I figured I oughta start getting information out of the locals. The creepy dudes in the robes already dropped what I assume are the basics on me, but there's gotta be more to this than "hi, welcome to the robot planet. You're stuck here forever, make yourself at home". I kind of had things to do back home. Important things. Things that didn't include being kidnapped by alien robots.

Anyway. It's probably a long shot, but if any Brave Police just happen to be hanging around here, shoot me a heads up. Oh, and if anyone happens to find a really big motorcycle, that's mine. Try not to mess with it, yeah?

[Nope not even dropping a name. What a courteous guy right. He grumbles something to himself before killing the feed.]

[WOW this dude is awkward]

I guess I am runnin' pretty low. Where do you guys gas up around here?

[HOW DO I HANDLE THESE THINGS.]

There isn't any gasoline. Not much, really. You need to have your engine altered.

...

I can leave what I have for you.

[The least he can do. After what Gunmax had done for him.]

Ugh, are you serious? This place keeps getting better and better. ...That was sarcasm too, just so we're on the same page.

You don't need it?

Yes. I am. Energon is what the robots here use for fuel.

No.

My engine was altered... over a year ago.

[And WOW that sounds so weird to say.]

As long as you don't need it. I owe you one.

So it's been a while, huh? What about the other Brave Police?

[Beeeecause he kind of just saw them like yesterday but everything was already nuts enough so HEY.]

You don't owe me anything. You really don't.

... McCrane has been here longer than I have. Power Joe came after us. Deckerd after him.

Hey, I'll decide that.

...Y'know, considering I just saw all of them a really short time ago in Japan, I'm having a hard time wrapping my AI around that.

[Gee, that sounds familiar.]

I'm not surprised.

For what it's worth -- Power Joe, at least, is as foolish and loud as he was when he arrived.

[Power Joe stops dead in his tracks.]

I think I need to punch Kagebird in the face tomorrow.

[he just smirks, damn right gunmax is gonna get his way. eventually. once he's settled in.]

Yep, that sounds like him. If you word it like that though, you make it sound like McCrane and Deckerd aren't what they used to be.

I don't know Deckerd well enough to say.

[He quiets, and looks away.]

McCrane has... dealt with a lot. Physically, he hasn't changed.

But this place is difficult.

Difficult how? I mean, besides the obvious.

You died.

Twice.

[That is how difficult.]

[oh hey look it's McCra-ooooh]

[Gunmax is kind of speechless. For once. How do you even reply to that?]

...Well, that's a hell of a way to greet someone.

You asked, and I feel it is best to be direct.

[...if it had only been as easy as simple death.]

I was not able to stop you from disappearing, either time.

I--

[He wants to say more, but he can't work up to it yet.]

I am glad that you are back.

[There. Clearly a much better greeting. He's trying?]

"Back" implies that I was here before. I've never seen this place. So what gives?

You were here before.

[He considers carefully where the best place to start with this explanation should be.]

...a version of you was, at least. The same thing happened with Deckard. He had come to Cybertron, and then disappeared to the badlands.

Then, he came to Cybertron again.

[Alright so it isn't the best explanation, but he is trying.]

I can handle this.

[Dammit McCrane go to bed, you're supposed to be recovering.]

I know.

But.

It is Gunmax.

[He can't not speak up. He can't.]

...

I know that.

But ... fine. Do what you think is best.

I...

[This is now made particularly awkward, because he's suddenly realizing that he was developing similar feelings for you that he used to have for Gunmax. Now, Gunmax is back...but its not the same Gunmax. He doesn't know what to do.]

I think it is best if we both explain. He will have many questions.

...

I see McCrane already told you.

[And here, he was supposed to be the creeper.]

[This is one of the most annoying days ever. Just look how annoyed Gunmax is. It's a lot.]

Tch, yeah. Seems that way.

Well, I'm feelin' pretty good for a dead guy. So now what?

Edited 2014-02-04 21:32 (UTC)

Now... you make every effort not to have it happen again.

[Kagerou is that a serious answer what the hell man.]

Uh huh, right. How about you tell me how I happened to die the first two times, and I'll just not do that again.

[GUNMAX HAS NO IDEA THIS GUY IS SO WEIRD]
