re_alignment | 01

[When the vid feed pops up on the Link, it starts with Swerve looking pretty confused, but this isn't exactly new to anyone who knows him.
To those who don't, welcome to Swerve-ville! Population: This boxy motherfucker and a whole lotta mouth.
He does perk up pretty quickly though, which again, isn't all that surprising. Swerve is pretty ace when it comes to looking like he's perpetually in a good mood.]

You know, I kind of thought we'd crashed through some kind of portal at first, 'cause this looks a lot like Cybertron. So I was thinking maybe there was some kind of massive surprise twist on the way and the Knights of Cybertron were actually on Cybertron the whole time, but it was an alternate version of Cybertron and the quest was actually supposed to teach us a lesson about perseverance and friendship.

Buuuut then some mech who was with me when I came out of recharge explained most of the actual situation to me. Kind of a disappointment, really.

[Though, if he thinks about it, this is actually pretty good. If there was a test on how everyone on the Lost Light was best friends, they would have failed it pretty quick. Because they're them.]

But, uh, just a note here? Waking up to a mech who was watching you during recharge just to explain the whole situation? Actually pretty creepy. So... might wanna get management on that.

Hah! Are they getting on your case about it? [Swerves waves a hand in a sweeping dismissive gesture.] Don't worry about it. Just do what you do and do it well.

I'm definitely up for a bar meet. And just a bar in general. Maybe you can tell me how you and Ultra Magnus ended up friends. Mutual interest in The Law, I'll bet. [He definitely pronounced those capitals.]

Some _mechs here but they soon learn not to do it because I get irritated. Thank you Swerve I try.

I will sent you the coordinates. In my world Ultra Magnus was the bot in charge not OPTIMUS PRIME so I already had a lot of respect for him and when he arrived here we _quickly get along.

Well, actual genuine respect is the sincerest form flattery, but that's kinda strange. Magnus is sort of law-aligned in my world. He goes after 'cons, sure, but if an Autobot breaks the law, they've gotta answer to him too. Leading a whole war would probably be a bit of a distraction to the whole Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord thing.

Genuine_{respect is always}nice to have. ULTRA Magnus is still like that here more or less The law is the law no matter what faction you belong HE mentions the Tyrest Accord often _{but I don't really know} what is it about.

I think it's like the first few clauses of the Autobot code? Don't worry, pretty much no one knows except him. And maybe Tailgate.

Poor, poor Tailgate.

It should be.

I talked a bit with Tailgate _{he seems to be} quite te nervous fellow but why 'poor' DID something happen?

Post-war he ended up wanting to align himself, 'cause it still mattered even after the whole thing was over, so in order to become an Autobot, Magnus had him study the Code.

The unabridged version.

[Tailgate deserves nothing but your sympathy. Everyone's sympathy.]

The unabridged....?

Ouch.

[Yeah, even in his universe that is LONG.]

Yeah, I know right?

[He taps a finger against his helm.] Kinda surprised they went at it the manual way instead of just cramming it directly into his brain module.

Not everyone enjoys that method _{it's a bit invasive} maybe Ultra Magnus didn't want to risk it.

I'm pretty fine with it, but yeah, I guess it's not for everyone.

[Not that that risk meant anything when it came to teaching Tailgate the atrocities of the Decepticon size of the war. Then again, that was Rodimus.]
