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.

Consider it done. I'll be there faster n' you can say 'Wreckers'.

By the way, don't even say it or I'll pound ya the moment I get there.

[drift holds his hands up in that 'whoooa buddy okay' sort of way. It's a very specific way.]

You know, a pounding doesn't sound all that great after just arriving.

[There's a soft chuckle on the other end of the feed.]

Didn't think so. Now hold, I'm comin' up on Vectors in a few. It's a lot farther than ya might think.

I'm not in any hurry, take all the time you need.

[SUCKS TO BE YOU not really cause he's just getting over there now, pulling up in his vehicle mode. He knows Drift from previous time in Haven, so it wasn't hard to spot him, sidling up in car mode before transforming.

Look sorta familiar, Drift? Maybe with slightly less asshole?]

Welcome back...sorta.

[WOW YEAH IT DOES so wheeljack but not but kinda. god why is everything so weird and confusing. Just look how confused Drift looks.]

That was quick.

And ah. Thanks. I guess.

[He'll clear things up for you, Drift, don't you worry.]

Lemme guess, I'm a nerd where ya come from. Science, calculations, all that scrap.

[OH GOOD BECAUSE THIS IS WACKY]

This is absolutely bizarre. But yeah, that sounds about right.

...Yeah. That's kinda been the pattern. Not exactly like that in my world. More of a Wrecker.

[His hands go up, in defense.]

Hold the applause.

Consider them held. I spent some time around the Wreckers back home. They were impressive, sure, but once you get used to them, they're just like any other trigger happy group.

So I've heard.

[From the other one at least. Which is why he glances up and down, those eyes a bit brighter than they usually are. It's like taking a look back to when he was first here. Helping the other Drift out of the junkyard.

Only now...on slightly better terms.]

Talkin' to one of them now.

[He holds his hand out, for a formal introduction.]

Wheeljack. But I guess ya could figure that out.

Considering you've already introduced yourself, it was pretty easy to figure out.

[THAT and apparently all Wheeljacks look alike srsly. Don't mind the teasing, Drift's had a long day ok.

Is this handshake country do handshakes exist across dimensions? They do now.]
