[Video] One grumpy Seeker, coming up...
[Hello, Haven. Now appearing on your comms is a probably familiar form, though with a very unfamiliar paint job. Maybe Thundercracker or Starscream decided to try a new look?
Nope. Once this new Seeker speaks, it's clear that he's a stranger. A new arrival most likely. Whoever he is, though, he's clearly not very happy.]
Alright. I heard the story from the drone. Or Acolyte, or whatever the frag they're called. But can anybody out there tell me what the Pit is actually going on here? And why I've suddenly gained an extra, glowing brand that I don't recognize on my arm?
Because if this is all some kind of overly-elaborate joke or some Quintesson's latest idea on how to mess with us, someone is gonna get it...

Don't you have individual quarters? And if not... is Skywarp... a Skywarp there too?
[Oh Primus, don't tell him that just yet. Things have just started making a bit of sense here.]
... What's his deal, anyway? Is he always like that? Or did someone swap his energon ration with one of Mixmaster's 'special blends' this morning?
[Jadewing made the mistake of trying one of Mixmaster's 'special blends' shortly after coming to Earth. It had taken him two and a half days to stop seeing purple helio-hamsters and over a month for Cloudkicker to quit mocking him about it. NEVER AGAIN.
He just looks confused again at the last bit, though.]
But... if there's no one to report to, or get orders from... what do I do then?
no subject
[ and he chuckles at that. while Starscream likes his own TC just fine, he simply gets along with this one better. ]
Though I don't believe a Skywarp is here, no.
[ his own is likely at Darkmount, being far too serious and duty bound. who knows at this point... but Starscream has to laugh at hearing the next statement. ]
Ravage thought it would be a good idea to learn Earth languages by perusing their Internet. What he's picked up are from what is commonly called "LOL Cat memes." Quite irritating, actually.
As for what you do... Do what you want.
no subject
[Pause.] Thundercracker always was the most decent one out of the Command Trine.
[The origin of Ravage's strange speech patterns prompts a small snort though.]
Hmph... That explains a lot. And you're right. Very irritating.
[He just blinks at that declaration, trying to process the fact that he no longer has duties to perform, officers to answer to, or a Commander to obey. As much as he may have fantasized about such a situation at various points... now that he has it, he feels rather lost.]
Not really sure what that is... Beyond the immediate urge to go find and consume some of Skycutter's bootleg highgrade. Strong enough to floor a combiner if you're not careful. Makes anything easier to deal with.
no subject
[ yeah. like. none at all. such a thing doesn't exist where he comes from... ]
And I know a place that does serve highgrade, if that is really your thing.
no subject
[There's a definite note of distaste on that last word, as if hearing it applied to the term 'Seeker' made it a dirty word.]
Tell you what. Why not join me for that high grade, and I'll try and tell you about it?
[Also he kinda doesn't know where to actually go to get the high grade and is kinda hoping to follow you. Or at least be given some directions.]
no subject
I can't really hold my high grade that well.
[ good defense. best defense. ]
no subject
Then you can just have some standard grade. Probly best if one of us keeps all their processes in working order anyway.
Besides, I kinda need somebody to point me to where I can actually get it; I haven't been anywhere but Nexus' temple yet.
no subject
no subject
[Can you tell he's been getting a lot of comments about how garish his painjob is? Cause he has.]
no subject
Wanna do I time skip to Starscream's arrival? :3
Heh, don't worry; I'd only shoot at you if you were in my Starscream's colors.
[He's clearly kidding. Mostly, anyway. He wouldn't have the bearings to actually do it, but really, who hasn't fantasized about zapping Starscream]
sure sure
And time skippin we go~
Anyway, see you shortly.
[The feed disconnects and Jadewing remains on the roof, awaiting Starscream's arrival. While he's waiting, he has a few more conversations, one of them more disturbing than expected. When Starscream arrives, he'll find Jadewing looking a good bit grimmer than he did before he'd cut the link.]
Hello, Starscream. [He almost adds a 'sir' on the end of the greeting, but catches himself.] I hope the place you keep your high grade around here isn't too far. Turns out I'm gonna need that drink more than I thought.
no subject
he doesn't change out of jet form. they have a bit of a ways to go. ]
There's an average of a hundred miles between temples. Getting anywhere takes a while.
no subject
[Still, not that far for a jet. He takes off and Transforms, instinctively taking up the wing-second's position, one length behind and one to the left of Starscream.]
Ready when you are. Lead on.
