[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.

[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.]
