[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.

[Oh you want to talk fast? Bring I, babe! This bot is happy to see someone that seems to be able to keep a conversation at his same speed.]

The Knights of Cybertron oohhh you must be from Rugn and Drift's world And ultra Magnus Overlord Fort Max Whirl First Aid Ambulon Wing Perceptor Phrama Wheelj...you know what I think the Lambda just loves to throw mechs from your universe here.

I'm BLurr nice to meet you.

Woah! You do not look like the Blurr I know. Well, not totally. Same color scheme and antenna and you do talk pretty fast but you're not as tall. Or bulky. I wonder what kind of alloys you ended up with. [Gonna gently touch your face eventually, just you watch Blurr 2.]

Didn't actually recognize all those names though. Well, not by knowing them. More like knowing of them. Kinda hoping you're joking about the whole Overlord thing, since the guy's a nasty piece of work. Forgot it was called the Lambda, but I didn't thing facy inter-dimensional space-time portals had a preference but this is also my first so maybe they do. Who knows?

I'm Swerve, and likewise.

Yeah I know Others told me that before I AM not a wrecker nor a racer but_{I have to admit that being a racer sounds nice} I just never had the time or the opportunity I was a member of the Elite Guard and part of the intelligence gathering body but here I am the head of the Police Force since we had no laws whatsoever and things where getting a bit out of hand people were getting hurt and all that. [He will be surprised, but don't think much of the touching.]

I wish I was joking about OVERLOD but no he's here as well...he doesn't post often or never so he's easy to avoid most of the time. My FIRST too but ey who knows maybe space-time portals are picky.

A pleasure, Swerve. MIGHT I ask what FirstForget are you linked to?

It was a pretty lucrative profession, back in the day. You'd probably be good at it if you're as fast as the Blurr I know. Guess your whole story does make sense anyway though. Different universes and all that. Can't expect everyone to be the same, even if they share a bit. I did hear about the police force thing though. Gotta say though, I figured Magnus would be all over heading that, but first come first serve, right?

Oh, yeah. I totally got that part of the whole talking guide thing. Alpha Trion, apparently. Whatever that means here. Is he kinda of a big deal, or what?

I'm not sure if we can be compared I AM the fastest autobot here and in my universe ^{but who knows}how that works in the others I admit that I'm really curious about that other me COULD you tell me more about him?

No no no not much of a big deal I was just curious I'm linked to sir Vector Prime.

Good point. The difference in size and structure could have some kind of effect, and you look pretty different as far as those things go. Same color scheme though. Wonder if it's some kind of constant across universes. But yeah, I could tell you plenty. Depends on what you wanna know.

Oh are we supposed to call them all 'sir'? That's... weird. Haven't called anyone sir in ages.

That's true I AM one of the smallest and most light mechs here. [But ey, you are pretty small too, he likes that.]If fine with knowing anything you wants to share with me.

Oh no no no no sorry FORCE of habit. My bad.

Yeah, I can definitely see how that's the case. Pretty short myself but not monopolizing space in the 'light' department. [Knock knockin' on his chest for emphasis. Clang clang!] We can get together sometime and I'll tell ya about him later. I've got a lot to say.

Part of that whole 'being the law' thing? Magnus must love you.

Being short is not bad at all IF ONLY the others here could understand that. [Blurr smiles. Bulky frames are okay, he likes those.] We could meet at the Rec center, the bar it's finished already.

Oh well_{we are friends} yes even if I'm his superior here.

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.]

Edited 2012-11-14 15:06 (UTC)

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.]
