[Voice] Trying Too Hard

[vandalization]

So that's it then. Everything is back to "normal". As normal as this place gets and we're all left a little more fucked up than when we started.

Let's talk, humans, bears, Autobots, Decepticons. We're all people stuck here. Some of us want to be here, some of us don't...

But.

I just want to hear something good.

It doesn't matter if we're friends or not. But I'd like to hear from you.

Have you made friends here?

Would you rather go home or stay? If you want to go home, what is it there that you miss?

What makes you happy?

[CASUALLY does not address that he has no friends. He doesn't want any, anyway.]

I don't have anything to go back to.

[Oh good, he knows that strange distorted voice. Completely ignoring the question at hand, Teddie goes into complete panic mode. He's been on edge about this for awhile now.]

VANDAL!! How's your sister?!

okay
pros
no bumblebee
plenty of energon
new bar opening
flying is nice
lots of new interesting perspectives on life here
potential for political advancement / once in a lifetime chance to terraform this planet (and no war) / clean slate new chances etc etc
"friends" are a thing if you loosely define friends as people who can stand me being around them for more than a couple breems
i'm not going to name them though potential targets
they know who they are
you know who you are
and i don't deserve you
this went in a strange direction i must be tired


how are you?

Hey, Vandal. I'm glad to hear from ya.

I got a lot of friends. You included, of course! And, um. Hm.

I... I don't know. That's so hard for me to say. I haven't seen home in, like, three stellar-cycles? Uh, years! Three years. I want to, because my other friends are there, but I... I wouldn't wanna abandon the ones I've made here, either. So it's hard for me to choose. I miss my friends, and... and my tapes. My kids.

Hmm, music makes me happy! My friends. Dancing. Telling jokes. Being around people. Good energon. Stargazing! Games. Lotsa stuff.

Home. I'd rather go home.

[lifepersists]

I was expecting to die before I woke up here.

[whirlybird_of_prey]

I got shot in the aft and molested by tentacles.

[AHHHH GOOD TIMES.]

[thxforthememories]

... Bears?

I don't... know if I can go back. If it's even possible. I want to, but... I don't know.

[elkmobile]

I'm alive. I couldn't really ask for more right now. I'd... like to think that I've made some friends here, but I guess that's hard to say.

Hmm, I miss the trees mostly. I hope that growing some would be plausible.

[Gently dodges the last question.] What about you?

[text] typos are intentional on my part just fyi

[lightupthenight]

made one friend
which is kind of amazing considering like
in my 21 years alive i only made like one friend
one real friend
i met him on the same night i died for him which is kind of fucked up but like
dude wa a really good friend
you can maek a friends that good hin a day if you never had one pbefore

but anyway thats not the point the point is tahtt ehre's a guy in this place who could have been from my hometwon and het gets it
but the difference is like
he had friends to help him and thats amazing
i didn't have that and i see the difference
frankly im jealous of him
but hes a cool dude so it s cool

as for going home im dead there like
litereally
when i came here i was in the process of being blown off the top of a 20 story building
even if i could go back theres nothin i could do
i said my piece
i did what i could

as for what makes me happy wow so
im not sure yet?
not much could make me happy at home i was mostly just fuckin angry all the time
but let me think
really good rock and roll
the hum of a motorcycle engine
good friends when i have them
good beer when i can get it (or whiskey)
clean air is pretty fantastic actually

yep

Cheetor told me what happened to me back in my world...A week ago I thought it was a good thing that I couldn't get back. Now I am not so sure.

[Looked]

Are you feeling better? Do you want me to come over now?

[Audio]

[perfavore]

Friends...

Si. Although they are not ones I would have ever imagined being considered compagni with.

Some...more than others.

[tearsofsteel]

[Man, even before here he never really considered himself happy...]

I guess the one good thing was meeting some decent people for once.

[dontasktrix]

But, enough about me; tell me more about me.

[She doesn't mean this at all. It's more like she's jadedly reciting a line she heard one time. Whether anyone finds her humor humorous, it's uncertain.]

[audio]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

I'm not so sure anymore. About wishing to return to my world. At this point in time, the lack of a war is... rather nice.

But then there are still people making a fuss.

And a car fell on me.
