re_alignment | [video] And then there's this loser

[Some people, upon discovering they'd been magically uprooted from wherever they were and mysteriously transported to a weird almost-but-not-quite Cybertron against their will, would probably be angry. At the very least they might be annoyed, maybe a little frustrated or panicked. This guy seems to be the exception. He looks a bit puzzled, sure, but he also looks MAYBE a little too calm and cheerful for someone in his position.

Oh, the video's recording! Excellent. He claps his hands together in that 'let's get down to business' sort of way.]

Oookay, from what I understand so far, it's probably safe to assume that you're all pretty used to confused new people popping up from time to time. I think I'm caught up on the basics, so I hope to avoid the whole panicking stage. Actually, everything I've heard so far is pretty fascinating. Just, you know, a little jarring. I have a few theories, but... well, I'll save them for when I have a better idea of what to expect here. The Acolyte I spoke to didn't give me too much information to work with. Well wait... okay, that's not true. I mean, it was pretty informative over all, but there isn't really a whole lot I can do with what they told me other than accept it. I don't like to complain, but it wasn't really all that helpful in a day-to-day life sort of sense.

So! Um. Anyway, my name is Drift. If anyone happens to have any helpful tips for a new arrival, I'd love to hear them. And... I think that's all I've got! Thanks for your time.

There's two of them. Two Ratchets. And one's crazy.

I don't know how I feel about this.

[ just think about Pharma, Drift. it's like having Pharma around only without ANY moral code whatsoever. ]

I just remember it really well because Knock Out locked me up with him and wouldn't let me go out and help hunt the guy down.

[oh well in that case i'll just chop his hands off]

Well, you are kind of small, to be fair.

[ then watch as he replaces them with something like buzz saws. ]

Aaaand I've beaten things that are just as big as you guys. Sometimes bigger. That guy doesn't scare me.

[blast, not as planned]

You're certainly not lacking in confidence. How can you fight something as big as us, anyway?

Magic.

[ pause. wait. he knows how that sounds. ]

Like really. I have attack spells. Healing spells. Defensive spells... And a special weapon called a Keyblade.
