[Drift's still a bit stained and scratched up when he appears on the video feed. He'd intended to clean up first, but orders are orders, and a little spider gunk never killed anyone. It just smelled awful, but that doesn't--thankfully--travel over video.]

As Ultra Magnus has brought up, we have missing.

Some of us can search for the missing, and try and figure out what this Calling is. But we need ideas so we're all on the same page. [A wince. 'Page' isn't a great word for him after that whole...mess.]

Especially about this 'Unicron' and how to defeat him.

[He cocks his head.] The Link might not be the safest place to talk openly, so to be safe, I figure we could have a meeting. Out where the others are building the Rec Center, unless anyone else has a better idea?

((OOC: I'll get the log up later, DW willing?))

[vandalization]

I'll help. Whatever needs to be done.

[sword_redemption]

First we need to figure out what needs to be done. The search for Ratchet--we could improve what we did. Set out grids or have flyers do a round of the edge of the Badlands to see if they spot anyone or...something.

[Some other idea from someone smarter than Drift.]

[vandalization]

Yeah. We could afford to do another sweep. Wish the Firstforged would help.

[cliffjumper]

... Where'd ya get the idea Unicron's behind this?

[No disbelief here, no sir, rather something between an "oh, of course" and questioning the conclusion. Because where did that come from?]

However, if it is, well, uh.

[Cliffjumper shrugs and rubs the back of his helm.]

While that might depend on the reality, basically; a Prime, the Matrix... suppose mechs like the Firstforged would be useful too, an' then hope to Primus you can kick it out of the reality Unicron's arrived in before the reality gets destroyed and consumed.

[We're a regular cheer patrol here, yep.]

'Cause it's kinda hard, even if we're made to fight a planet and universe-gobblin' deity without something heavy to hit it with.

Vector Prime

[He's not entirely sure he trusts him, but Vector had, after all, stopped the Red Rust from killing him.]

I think if they could have stopped him before now they would have.

[Drift sighs.] We don't know what we're up against or what we have to fight it with. Which is why we all need to come together and talk. Where it's relatively safe.

[Video]

[cliffjumper]

If he ain't actually in this reality... yet, I suppose, not much they can do, really.

[Since he's not around to fight against, physically.]

Look, if it is Unicron, I might not have been there when we fought him, but I know at least partly what he is an' what we'd need... An' it was pretty much "everything and the kitchen sink".

[Cliffjumper grimaces and shrugs. That was pretty much what it had been as he'd understood it. Anybody present on Cybertron, regardless of faction, had fought...]

[notyourblueangel]

I don't know anything about a "Unicron" but . . . I agree that something needs to be done.

[Video]

[sword_redemption]

We have mechs from all different realities. We don't have--that I know of--Unicron in my world either.

[fuckinstoplights]

I'll help. I don't want anyone else to be lost.

voice;

[sword_redemption]

We need all the ideas we can take. How to stop this or prevent it or help someone or...anything.

voice;

[thxforthememories]

I'm not sure how we would prevent it.

Short of putting up walls... but you're all so big. You could go over or through them, easily.

[Video]

[neverputincharge]

Agreed, something should be done.

I'll help..much as I can.

[Video]

[sword_redemption]

Good. The more of us looking out for each other, the better.

I'll see you at the meeting.

[winged_knight]

[Wing appears over the link, bright with relief so intense it's palpable.]

Drift, you're back! And not looking too worse for the wear either, if I judge right? And you were successful in your task?

[Video] 2/2

[winged_knight]

[And that brightness fades a little, showing how worn he looks. It's the same cloud that's been lingering over them all lately, only temporarily burned away by Drift's return.]

I searched... exhaustively, for those gone recently missing. No sign. Not from the air at least. Perhaps underground...? [He shakes his head.]

'Unicron?' [Did the name sound familiar? Had he heard someone else use it? It's too hard to tell.]

You're right, open discussion would be good. I'll come. I want to hear more of what you've learned.

[raceme]

Drift WHAT happened to you!?

I will come over.

wtf how did i not see this. orz

[sword_redemption]

Just doing something for Liege. It's all right. We're back now.

[dinnerdate]

Defeating Unicron? ...You're going to die.

*sob* i am the worst with an inbox i can't be trusted

[sword_redemption]

...we are?

Wreck-Gar said they killed him in his world. It has to be possible.

[video]

[rednotbluethx]

You? Take on Unicron?

Yeah, good luck wit dat. Ya got anythin' in yer possessions worthy of me takin' when yer dead?

: [video]

[sword_redemption]

Not me, alone. [He hopes.]

...um. No?

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

[Unicron seems familiar ... like he should know that.]

Oooh. Am I invited to your little get together?

[video]

[sword_redemption]

Everyone is. We need to work together, because this Unicron didn't take just Autobots, after all.

[Video]

[a_father_to_his_men]

I think a public conference about all the factors, with as many people there in person as possible, would be greatly beneficial. Perhaps, once it is decided when the meeting is to be held, people could submit questions in text format, so that they isn't a clamor to air these questions at the meeting, and we can go over them to figure out what we know and what we are still unsure about.

If there is any way I can help, please let me know.

[sword_redemption]

I think we're meeting where they're building the rec center. It's the closest to a neutral place I could think of.

...and away from the First Forged.
