[Video] [Originating from the Junkpile]

[thelastprime]

[A pile of junk was the last place he'd expected to end up, to be perfectly honest.  In fact, it was the farthest thing from Autobot Outpost Omega 1 that you could get...well, at least now that Ratchet swept it up.  The large Autobot rose from his position, brushing off the debris that seemed to collect from his initial entrance. He doesn't seem to really react to any of it, as if he was basically just acknowledging 'yep, I just landed in a trash heap. Oh well'.  Out of all of the useless junk, there is one thing that catches his eye. The Link.  He picks it up, eyebrow perked.  Interesting...it seemed to be a communications device.  He'd have to take a look at this.

But that didn't mean he wouldn't waste time with IMPORTANT things.  His eyes immediately began to scan his surroundings, pupils dilating and contracting as he shifts immediately towards the stars. He always felt that the cosmos offered a better map than the landscape, although he wasn't exactly prepared for the results. And, like a camera lens, those eyes widen in shock.  It was...Cybertron. There was no way he could be mistaken.

He wouldn’t hesitate to use the Link either, especially if it seemed to have communication properties. After all, he had to find his soldiers. At moments like this, it was best to stick together.]

Autobots, report in. This is Optimus Prime, and I fear we seem to have traveled somehow to our homeworld. It’s appearance is not as I remember, as if it has yet to be built. If you are nearby I will send my coordinates.

If not, report me yours so I may locate you.

[His gaze went from the stars to the layout of the land. A pile of junk...he certainly didn’t remember that, but some of the landscape was definitely ringing some bells in his processor. Or at least...they were similar enough. There were a few petite differences, but the gorges, canyons, mountains...they aligned with his own vision.]

Cybertron...

...

[Yeah, he's calling bullshit on that.]

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

Why are you looking at me like that?

[video]

[thelastprime]

[Where should he start? Red Optics? Wings? Decepticon logo on said wings?]

Your sigil.

[That works.]

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

What can I say? I've seen the light and switched sides.

[video]

[thelastprime]

One who switches to the Autobots would not refer to themselves as a 'follower'.

But a 'comrade.'

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

It's not like I keep up on all the nice Autobot terms you guys use.

[video]

[thelastprime]

One would assume it would be a good start.

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

But then I'd become boring. And we don't want that.

[video]

[thelastprime]

[Optimus has found that there are plenty of benefits to being boring.

Here is your brochure make sure to read the last page it has some saying from a book you never read written by a guy you never cared about on a subject you clearly don't understand.]

...

Would you mind giving your designation?

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

...

[He almost said "Jetfire" but stopped himself when he remembered how badly the jet blew up over his name being used.]

Star--

[No, he couldn't use his own name. Quick! He has to make something up!] --Fire.

Starfire.

[Yes. Exactly.]

[video]

[thelastprime]

Starfire.

[That sounds kind of gay It's a nice name.]

An honour to meet you.

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

[Oh why did he pick that name?]

Yes, yes.

Now why don't you tell me more about where you came from?

[video]

[thelastprime]

I am from a dimension where Cybertron has already fallen.

[Great starting point!]

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

That is ... not very specific. Try again.

[video]

[thelastprime]

...

Should there be more?

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

I'm sure if you walked up to almost any mech here they'd say they were from a universe where Cybertron has fallen.

Kinda goes along with war and all.

[video]

[thelastprime]

Then what would an example be of how to prove my own dimension distinct from the rest?

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

You could let me see the Matrix and I could verify the differences.

[No, he couldn't.]

[video]

[thelastprime]

...

[Yeah no.]

You will tell me the differences, regardless.
