[Thundercracker peers at the tiny thing. From its surroundings, he can guess its height. Pit, he's going to have to be careful walking around if there are . . . beings . . . THAT small around here.]

[Even over video, it's not speaking, so he's not sure it can even comprehend spoken words. Just in case, he makes sure to add text subtitling his end of the feed as he speaks.]

We're all creations. What species are you?

[Seeing it's given him enough of an idea what to look for in "others" - the question at this point is pure curiosity.]

[As time goes on, Four's inability to speak is starting to feel like a liability. It never used to bother him before...]

We call ourselves Creations. We are the Scientist's Creations.

He made us, we are a part of him.

Mm. I see.

Do you have a name?

I'm Thundercracker.

[Added almost as an afterthought because, hey, manners...a little rusty on them.]

[Four blinks at the name. Thundercracker, how interesting. He rather likes this naming system to be honest, he's not sure why.]

My name is 4.

Before you ask, my name is 4 because I was the 4th creation made. My brother is 3 and the rest of my family is also named after numbers, all the way up to 9.

[He nods.]

Hmn. Nice to meet you, 4. I will look out for your family, and contact you if or when I see them.

Thank you so much! You are so kind.

I will definitely remember this about you.

[He's visibly startled. He's been called a LOT of things over the course of his life. He's pretty sure "kind" was never one of them.]

Ah . . . sure.

Just . . . try to stay out of trouble, all right?

[Oh you silly boxy robots, Four calls them as he sees them.]

I will try!

Trouble is often big enough that I can't always avoid it though.

[That gets an amused smirk.]

Heh, seems to be a universal problem.

[Of course, in his case, it's as often as not because he works too closely with Starscream who tends to attract trouble even when he's not actively pursuing it, but hey.]
