[Video] [Originating From: Junkpile]

[breakthrough]

[An ordinary person might have panicked upon waking up in such a wildly unfamiliar setting, after all this can hardly mean anything good. But Cylas has long since stopped being "ordinary" and therefore takes it calmly. He admits though, that feeling he had when he arrived was... unsettling to say the least.

A communications device, shall he use it? Despite the unsettling feeling, he decides to take a leap of faith. Who knows where it might lead him. Besides, he recognizes that being here is far better than where he was going.]

This is a largely unconventional means of abduction, so I will give points for creativity. I suppose the next question is about where I am, and I have the feeling that I'm not in Kansas anymore. You should also consider cleaning this place up, it would be terrible if guests were to get a bad first impression.

[Wait... this face looks familiar doesn't it, yet the voice doesn't match.]

Any and all information is welcome.

New world order? Nothing personal? I may not be a big old fan of the 'Cons but you took a Cybertronian and turned him into your personal ride! Nothing personal? You made it personal when you did that you slagger!

Breakdown here was already dead when we found him. I suppose you can say he, ah, couldn't keep his head. Thanks to the actions of your Autobot teammates, my union with this body became almost unavoidable.

So there's no need to get upset. You can't climb to new heights if you're afraid to go where others wouldn't, after all. Besides, is it not your intention to destroy Decepticons?

[shutupndrive]

It doesn't matter if he was dead or not! You don't just take someone's body and turn them into your freaky ride!

[He's tense as he snaps at the other, glaring with everything's he's got because he knows he can't do much else at the moment.]

We're trying to stop the Decepticons, trying to end the war--not mutilate them and turn them into something that is barely recognizable as a real Cybertronian!

Correction: Breakdown's body was used as a means to keep me alive. It was a matter of necessity, so M.E.C.H went through with it.

[Without his permission, but he can hardly fault them for being loyal and determined, can he? Well, they're in a better place now. A place out of his way.]

You fight a war, yet you preach to me about morality? If you aren't willing to pull out all the stops and go all the way... then there's no way you will win. War is an ugly place my friend, you should not be afraid to get your hands dirty.

So he was just a convenient tool for you to use to better your survival? That doesn't make it right! That makes it even worse! That means you don't see us as anything but tech that can make your life better!

[Getting a little heated? Maybe. Funny that it was in reference to a 'Con now wasn't it?]

We're doing what we have to in order to beat the 'Cons but that doesn't mean we're going to resort to something so disgusting as what you did to Breakdown!

[Cylas laughs, because he really does have trouble seeing Cybertronian kind as anything but. He can see that they are indeed intelligent and emotional, yes, and Cybertronian's are fascinating in every sense of the word. He admires many aspects of them.

But they are not human.

It's as simple as that.]

Right or wrong, it doesn't matter. What matters is survival and advancement. Breakdown here was a fascinating specimen, and now he's being used for a higher purpose: My own.

Disgusting you say? Well, it's all a matter of perspective.

So, would you keep to your code even if it cost you your ability to survive?

[shutupndrive]

[Out of sight of the camera, Smokescreen's fists clenched when Cylas started laughing, the rookie's doorwings twitching as the urge to find this joker and take him out grew and grew.

But that wasn't the Autobot way. Plus, Blurr had said he needed to be nice.]

No, it's just disgusting. Perspective isn't needed you slagger. And yeah, I would, because that's what we Autobots do. We find a way to accomplish our goal without causing unnecessary harm.
