re_alignment | [Video | Alpha Trion's Temple]

[There's a moment of fuzz before the video actually settles and comes through completely, Smokescreen standing just outside Alpha Trion's temple, one hand resting on his hip as he holds the camera with the other. He'd been filled in by an acolyte, of course, but that didn't make him any less prepared to believe completely, meaning that he had to go out and see everything for himself. A part of him wanted to find Alpha Trion himself--mostly because he couldn't believe the other was still functioning--but right now he wanted to see if he could find any of the others.]

Smokescreen reporting in. Anyone from Team Prime out there? I figured it'd be best to touch base with at least someone before I started trying to just find you guys or something like that.

[Despite the odd nature of his situation, Smokescreen seems pretty relaxed--or he's at least keeping himself together pretty well because he's not really sure how he got back to Cybertron. Sure the acolyte had told him about that giant hole that was dumping people through but..that..was about as believable as saying Starscream had changed for the better. At least in his opinion.]

Arcee? Bumblebee? Bulkhead? Ratchet? Optimus? Anyone? Come on guys, don't leave me hanging please. I really want to get the real details of whatever's going on and you're the ones I want to hear it from. As much as I'd love to just believe this was all good and well and Cybertron was really in an okay state like this, you'll understand if I completely and totally don't believe it right?

[He's itching to go and do something, like always, shifting his weight back and forth as his doorwings twitch some.]

Calling all Autobots! Please respond!

....Sharkticons? What..the slag are those exactly?

[Who taught you that language, baby, because uncle Wheeljack is so impressed.]

Think like...giant scraplets. That don't eat metal.

[Comes with spending too much time around Arcee~]

....Oh yeah that's a pleasant thought. Even without the metal eating.

And hey, if you're bored enough, you and I can spar.

[Because...well, HE'S bored as slag out here.]

[The rookie visibly perks, doorwings lifting a bit.]

Really? I'd be up for it!

That's the spirit, kid!

[His own wings twitch a little.]

Hey, uh...what's the status of Bulk back where you are...

[He's trying to find out what exactly he's missing.]

[Smokescreen's grin fades into a thoughtful..almost stoic sort of look.]

He's..doing better. He was pretty injured and not really doing much for awhile there but he was involved in the last throwdown with the Decepticons we were in so that's a good sign

So he's better?

[His wings twitch slightly.]

Heh, knew it.

[Smokescreen nods with a soft grin.]

Yeah. He and Miko were both way too stubborn to let the big guy stay down for too long.

That's my boy.

Maybe I'll stop by.

[Oh Wheeljack, you don't even know that the Team hates you just yet.]

You should!

[The start of hero worship? Maybe, if the bright optics and big grin are any indication.]

[Stop it, kid. You're really startin' to grow on him.]

...Heh, let me guess. Arcee's not very fond of ya.

[He just has this feeling with your optimism.]

[Oh good!]

Yeah not really. I think I annoy the slag out of her, if I'm going to be honest.

[He says it with a bit of a grin though, rubbing the back of his neck.]

Then we're in the same boat.

[He laughs.]

Don't worry, she'll warm up to ya.

I dunno if she knows how to really warm up to anyone. Well, that isn't organic.

[Because really he always just sees her being bitchy for the most part.]

...And now I'm kinda glad I took the lone ranger strategy.

I'm thinking you should be, though I know we could use you back home.

Well, I'm always a call away.

Talk to the Doc about that.

Good to know. I'll keep that in mind.
