[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! ))

Well, I mean, we talked. On the network. Not like in person or anything. Yet.

[Why? Why does he seem worried? What?]

Does that--I mean, can that happen?

[That would suck: he had hugs on the agenda with himself. Nice, platonic 'sucks to be us' hugs.]

[raceme]

Oh I see. It must have been really awkward.

I...don't know? Maybe? Let's hope not, in any case.

[Aww that's such a Kodak moment.


The hugs that ended the universe as we know it. What a way to go.]

[sword_redemption]

Awkward?

[That laugh that says oh Primus awkward doesn't even begin to cover it.]

Nah, he's cool. I mean, he's me, after all.

[And Drift's cool. Right?]

So. I mean, it's good to see you're still here.

[raceme]

[Blurr gives him a sheepish look an a shrug.] I can only imagine...

There's also another Wing and...well him and the other you got...they were each other conjux endura. [He learned that word from Rewind.]

Yeah, I don't think I'll ever leave. Can I ask you something?

[sword_redemption]

It's all good. I mean, it's just a thing. Hardly the weirdest thing that's ever happened here, right?

[HAHAH funny, remember the time he got turned into a girl?]

Sure. What's up?

[raceme]

That's a good point. Hardly anything that happesn here seems crazy anymore.

[Good days those ones, uh?]

Barricade left month ago, he wanted to find you two. Did you see him?

[sword_redemption]

Kind of puts things into perspective. I mean, about back home.

What I can remember of it.

[It's been so long he's not really sure.]

Yeah, he found us. He's doing good. Keeping an optic on the place for us.

[raceme]

It really does even if things were complicated there too.

Maybe a change of scenery did us good after all.

[That information makes him so happy, you don't even know. Blurr closes his optics for a moment, relieved, and then smiles up at drift.]

I'm glad to hear that. Thank you. [His optics bright up as he's getting more emotional. Blurr he tries to keep it together.] I miss him every day but I hope he's happy where he is now.

[sword_redemption]

I'd like to think so. You know, gave us chances here to learn what we were too busy fighting back home to learn.

[And by 'we' he means himself. But maybe Blurr, too.]

He is. I mean, I think he is. He's inventing stuff, little harmless things now. Like the little lizards he used to make here?

[raceme]

That's true. Funny how you never realize what you were missing until things change like this.

[Oh he includes himself in that.]

He's very good at that. I'm bet that his skills improved already.
