[Video, originating from Trion's temple]

[Well someone looks excited. He has a piece of paper in hand and he just looks absolutely thrilled to death, optics constantly darting back to the paper before he actually focuses on the camera, beaming.]

I have learned something of the utmost interest just recently. Jetfire, if you would happen to have the time to spare, I would be interested in sharing my findings with you. I believe you would find them of use.

I've come into the possession of a map, and it seems to indicate the existence of two other temples, and a ruin as well. It would be wonderful if we could perhaps organize an expedition out to these locations.

I hope you will consider it.

Comments

[Video] totally should do my own reactionary post but ...

[aerospacecommander]

I'm going with you both.

[This was a statement. Not a request.]

[Video] Oh Starscream-chan

[scienderp]

[Wait what]

Er.... are you sure you wish to accompany us?

[Video] :D

[aerospacecommander]

Yes, I'm going with you.

[Whether you like it or not.]

[Video]

[scienderp]

If... that is what you truly wish, Starscream.

[video]

[angleofscience]

[Well, that certainly sounds interesting!]

I should, yes---

[And it's hard not to notice Starscream's little input over there, ahem. If they were in the same room, he'd give him a look. Can't even ask, can he.]

That sounds worth exploring, and at least doing an initial recon of each of those locations before we decide what to do and how to proceed.

[He frowns thoughtfully.]

Though, it's interesting we haven't seen any evidence of these structures until now...

[video]

[scienderp]

I find it quite strange as well. One would think there would be a little more evidence about it, but...

[He moves the map and displays it on the screen]

There is certainly no harm in investigating it.

[video]

[angleofscience]

Perhaps there'll be some explanation for why they can't be otherwise seen when we get there...

[Which of course means they need to check them out.]

We could find each of the temples' location and then decide from there which to investigate first?

[Pause. And then he's just drag a hand down his faceplates.]

If he does mean it, would it be all right if Starscream accompanies us?

[He's presently unaware that it would be harder than usual to bar the Seeker from not doing as he wants.]

[video]

[scienderp]

Perhaps. I was thinking that they may be subterranean.

[But of course, naturally, this bears inspection!]

That seems like the way we should do it. If you would like, you are welcome to study this map with me.

[He knows that feel bro. Starscream has that effect on people]

I... would not be opposed to it. If of course he actually wishes to come along.

[raceme]

TWO other temples? Are there more Firstforged we don't know about?

[scienderp]

Perhaps. I am curious as to what is inside these other two temples. Would you like to accompany me as well, Blurr?

[raceme]

I'm a bit busy right now but SURE. [Otherwise you might end trapped somewhere for another 100 years :|]

[scienderp]

Well we wouldn't be departing just yet. We still need to consider what to bring and how long it might take. I will be sure to contact you the moment we are sure what we are doing.

AUDIO;

[inferiordude]

Thrilling. Have fun rolling around in the ruins.

Video

[scienderp]

[Well this doesn't sound very like you, Soundwave]

.... I shall.

Is there something wrong, Soundwave?

AUDIO;

[inferiordude]

Always is. Always somethin'.

[scienderp]

What is troubling you currently?

[video]

[rotafortunae]

[he holds up a hand]

A few words of caution.

In regards to the temples: beware the Trickster, and the...

[he peers at some cards in front of him]

Doctor?

I believe those were temples of the Firstforged.

And as for the ruin... mirrors.

[video]

[scienderp]

Have you been to these temples before?

[He doesn't sound accusing, just curious. It sounds like you know what you're talking about here]

Were temples... Are they still located inside of them?

And do you mean there are mirrors at the temple, or that it is comprised of mirrors?

[video]

[rotafortunae]

I have no idea.

[he smiles]

I only know what the cards tell me, and that this particular deck has been shockingly accurate. Of course, if you're a skeptic, you can feel free to ignore me. But remember my words. Mark them. And then you can get back to me when everything's gone wrong.

[Video] - permission for action? TC's got a chance of just /teleporting/ spontaneously to a spot if-

[notyourblueangel]

((ooc: -he's at all thinking about going there. If rather not, have plans or whatever, TOTES cool, just figured I'd ask. =3))



. . . Skyfire?

[Pit, if he's not mistaken, this isn't just someone who looks like someone he knows, but actually IS the mech from his reality. Someone else is actually here! He really shouldn't be as excited anxious interested as he is.]

[Video] Go right ahead!

[scienderp]

.... Thundercracker?

[Should he be worried? He did kind of totally throw your boss into a snowbank and he's not too keen on getting shot again]

[Video --> Action] 8D

[notyourblueangel]

[Yes, well, he also kind of totally deserved it. While Thundercracker is obedient to Megatron, there's certainly no love lost there.]

Pit, it is you! I was beginning to think I was the only one from our reality. You look like you're somewhere in the same temple I'm in-!?

[He cuts off suddenly with the beginnings of a startled curse, cut off with a VOP! noise as he disappears, the video feed ending. He hadn't even been fully cognizant of the thought to go find the mech, but that's exactly what he thought and so it's . . . exactly what he's done.]

[With another loud VOP!, this time in the same room Skyfire's in, the blue Seeker finishes that curse as he finds himself once more in the dead center of room...unless that space is already occupied, in which case he's displaced accordingly. At least he manages to keep his feet as he falls from that halfway point between the floor and ceiling.]

[video] belated hullo there :>

[ichooseboth]

I don't know if you meant for this transmission to be private or not, but I must admit you've captured my curiosity either way.

'Other temples'? For other First-forged? Are they anywhere nearby?

[video] Oh harro

[scienderp]

Optimus Prime...?

Ah. No, it wasn't. The find is interesting, but not dangerous for either side to be aware of.

[Unless someone here wants to go digging around in some old ruins. People other than Skyfire.]

They're near the north east, I believe. Not in the badlands, thankfully.

[video] :3

[ichooseboth]

[We are sorry, but the Prime you are trying to contact is not currently available...]

'Optimus Prime'? [He laughs quietly, awkward and somewhat startled.]

No, I'm sorry... You must have mistaken me for someone else. My name is Orion Pax. Forgive me for my excitement, but I find myself in the middle of something like an archivist's dream come true here, what with the Firstforged running around, alive and well and all that.

[Orion smiles, wide and guilelessly, full of excitement.]

So these 'undiscovered' temples sound quite exciting. If you are mounting an expedition, I can't help but wonder if you might be agreeable to anyone else coming along?
