[The feed that opens is staticky, coming as it is from the outer edges of the network's range, and bears a face that should be familiar to many. Upon closer inspection though, one might notice this Wing is a little rougher around the edges compared to recent newer arrivals. His glyph too, is a brilliant Vectorian gold edged with a strong violet glow. A touch of concern marks Wing's face as he looks right and left before speaking into the feed. The jet is clearly wary of his surroundings.]
Haveners! It's been quite a long time. I wish happier news brought me to this, but alas, the recent disruption of the Lamdba affects us all.
[Behind Wing, over his shoulder, there's a stealthy, disturbingly flesh colored shape slithering down the slope on all fours.]
We hope--
[There's a flash of steel and white and red behind the jet: Drift doing what he does best, which is, apparently, slicing things into sushi, the two--the whatever-it-is and Drift--disappearing offscreen in a grunting flail.]
[The sound of combat rings out off screen, grabbing Wing's attention. The feed is jostled as he almost ends it--clearly Wing is tempted to join the fray--but he seems to change his mind at the last moment.]
Please. Please be wary if you leave the Haven. The wastelands is strewn with foreign debris and creatures stranger than ever roam the land!
[Yeah, and on that note... Drift appears--victorious, of course--holding what appears to be a severed head--actually two, one a smaller, almost vestigial one like a goiter from the neck of the main one--into the camera's range. ]
Anyone else running into these , for example?
[Stay classy, Drift.]
((OOC: Action and network both fine! Responses will be from either--if you have a preference, let us know! ))

[perma-video]
Well, apparently some time after the two of you left, another Drift arrived here, and shortly after that I arrived. [There, hopefully his alternate won't be so shocked to find another Drift flailing over this later...maybe he can find his roommate and warn him before he sees the video...maybe.]
I have to admit, it bothered me that I'd apparently forgotten this place and the people here. I wondered if perhaps there was another... [shrugs] "me" out there. Seems that is the case.
[And yes, that is what your voice sounds like...apparently. Primus this is so strange.]
[perma-video, indeed!] Don't mind Wing as he makes gross assumptions!
[By the Five he hopes so.]
W-wait... You mean to say. There's another Drift here as well? [Well that's. Hmm. Interesting. It's like they were meant to be together regardless. What are the odds? The idea makes him smile a secret little smile. Oh Other!Wing, just you wait!]
Forgotten it? Oh! But of course the other Haveners thought you were me. [A soft chuckle] Terribly sorry for that confusion. I can see how it'd be reassuring to know those memories weren't actually yours.
[Your voice? Our voice? Oh dear this is getting quite existential.]
He may not be too far off...guess we'll just have to see. XD
Certainly not something for you to apologize for. [Aaaand, have a mirrored chuckle there...that cuts a little short, because wow, that was weird.] Er, it is reassuring, though. It's quite disconcerting being told you've forgotten a place and people so unforgettable.
Can Wing be your wingman, Wing?
[How is more Drift not a good thing? Except his is a handful sometimes, so maybe Wing should rethink that. Actually...he should probably not be thinking too deeply about the possibilities of more Drift and--AHEM, yes, moving on.]
Sympathy where it's needed though. [He grants it, every time.] I feel I have a lot of people to catch up with. I...hope they are all still around. Many of them are, yes, quite unforgettable.
[Oh there he goes, getting a little sentimental.]
So much Wing in one question. There and only be one answer to such awesome. Yes. XD
I'm sure you do. I'm know a few, at least, are here and have missed you. [Him...guh. He's loved making friends with your friends, Other Wing.] I couldn't say for sure that all you once knew are still here, but a few at least. They'll be happy to see you.
:D
That's good to hear. [They were his new flock. With no more Crystal City, he'd taken to bonding with new people, watching over and caring for them. It's what made losing people to the Badlands so very hard. And leaving, even harder.] I'll have to seek them all out when I return to Haven proper. After making sure all is safe enough of course. How are things for you there?
no subject
You certainly should.
Things have been well for me. I've only been here a very short time, but I've gotten settled in, have joined the build crew, and volunteered to help the local law enforcement when half the force disappeared within a few day of each other. [That was a sad time. He didn't know those who'd left, but others did, and it made his spark ache to see people so upset.]
no subject
[He worked so closely with all of them while he was on the Law Committee. He knows people here get lost, it's part of the way this place works, but it never stops hurting. And in truth, he'd rather consider himself dead than stop feeling the acrid pang of grief at the loss of a friend.]
no subject
Phone tagging forgive the default icon I'm lazy
He's one of the Brave Police. He led the force, with Blurr and Ultra Magnus.
[Wing grows somber for a moment.]
He was the first person I met when here. After waking up in the Junk Pile.
