[The video clicks on far too close to Blades' face as he seems to be squinting at something. Realizing the camera is on, he blinks and backs up, hurrying to put a smile on his face.]

Hello! Hi everyone out there! I'm Blades. So, I guess we're all a little lost, or something? I don't know, some guy just told me I was in a lamb or something... looks like Cybertron to me. At least... sort of. There aren't all the cities and buildings and lights, but I know Cybertron like... Well, like home.

[A soft sigh as he wonders what home is exactly right now. Griffin Rock feels the most like home. But no time for that. A slight shake of his head brings him back to the here and now.]

Anyhow, if anyone sees my teammates, I'd appreciate it. There's a fire truck named Heatwave, a police car named Chase, and a bulldozer named Boulder. They're all really nice and I miss them. Of course, seeing as I heard we're stuck here, I'd love to get to know some of you too! I'm always up for making new friends. I've been so busy pretending to be a robot lately, it's been hard to talk to people.

[Oh, maybe he shouldn't mention that. Oops. A sheepish smile before he continues.]

Yeah. So... Hi again, and bye for now! [An enthusiastic wave and the screen blinks out.]

Problems? A problem doctor? I have the perfect patient for you! My friend Kade says all the time he has 99 problems, though he always makes sure to clarify that a female dog isn't on the list. Not sure why.

[Blades shrugs, moving on with his simple train of thought.]

Could you help me with my problem? I just want to go home.

.......I.....that..sounds like quite the problem.

[Even if Rung wasn't quite sure what that all meant. At all. His expression falls a bit, a more apologetic look appearing as the other asks his next question.]

If I knew how to return anyone home, I would happily help you, Blades. Unfortunately that is not my area of expertise.

Oh... Well that's ok. Maybe some day I'll have another problem you can help me with. Like flying. [Shivers.]

[Tilts his head.]

You have a fear of flying?

[The copter bot sinks down into his seat a bit.]

It's not my favorite activity...

[He gives the other a gentle smile.]

That's alright, there's no reason to be ashamed of a fear. Does it keep you from accomplishing what you set out to do?

[Blades perks up a bit at the reassurance.]

Well, no... I'm really good at pushing through it. It's just uncomfortable. But I'm a rescue bot and Optimus Prime himself asked me to take this alt mode so I will do my duty to the best of my ability!

[He puffs up as he says this, obviously very proud of himself.]

The fact that you are still able to use your alt mode and do you mission despite your fear says quite a bit about you, Blades. You don't let it hold you back which means your fear doesn't control you.

[Reassuring smile.]

I'm sure Optimus is very proud of you, Blades.

[Oh geez, if Blades could blush his face would be bright red right now. No one had ever spoken to him like this and it just felt so nice.]

You're too kind.

You are most welcome, Blades. [Cant help but find the copter quite adorable. It's been awhile since he'd interacted with a young bot.]

[If he had a father like Dani, Graham, Kade and Cody did with Chief, he imagined him being a lot like Rung. It was a pleasing thought. Besides, they already had the same colors.]

So... Is there a lot to do here? I haven't left the temple yet.

There's a lot of exploring to do from what I can tell. I haven't honestly left Prima's temple much myself.

Prima? Wow, you must be pretty awesome for Prima to choose you. I'm in Nexus' temple.

[Blades wasn't sure if he believed this stuff about the original primes or not, but he was on the verge of believing.]

[Sheepish look.]

I, ah, suppose.

[Part of Rung felt like perhaps his placement had been a mistake. He just didn't see how he had qualities that Prima valued.]

I offered this to another I met but if you would ever like company exploring a bit..

[Blades perks right up at this offer.]

Oh yes! I'd love some company.

[Since he's too afraid to leave the temple by himself. Besides, the first rule of being lost is to stay where you are until you are found.]

[Hes already picking up on the fact that Blades might be a bit scared and it's that fact in itself that makes Rung want to help.]

Would you like me to come to your current residence now perhaps? It would probably be wise to get a feel for your surroundings soon.

Oh yes! Would you?

[What a nice bot this Rung is. Blades hopes they can be friends.]

Of course.

[Gives the other another warm smile.]

I'll make my way to Nexus' temple shortly alright?

Ok. I look forward to meeting you!

[In person. Blades sat back on his berth, contemplating what he should say to Rung when he arrived. Maybe he should show some initiative and explore the temple? That sounded like a good plan.]
