[ Have an extremely pissy looking red and yellow robot. He's got a pretty impressive scowl at the moment, and points directly at the video feed accusingly. He's still standing in the junk pile, his armor a bit scratched up from his landing. Not his most pristine moment and he's pretty aware of it. ]

Hey, what's up with all this? Do you know who I am? I'm Rodimus! Rodimus Prime! You can't just take me away from my crew without my permission and dump me in a heap of garbage. This is kidnapping.

[ His optics narrow and he crosses his arms. ]

I'll give whoever is responsible one chance to come forward and tell me where I am or else there's going to be bigger problems.

You're here too, Swerve? Fantastic. They just decide who to dump here too.

You think Magnus's buddy in the stupid hat did it? Metrotitan is long gone.

If I didn't know any better, I'd almost think you weren't happy to see me! [Remember that time he almost got everyone killed trying to be noble. Ah, the good ol' days. Which happened last week.]

You mean the Galactic Council guy? Naaaah. Apparently we just get yanked in by the Lambda. Someone told me that someone else hinted to them that it's 'cos some bot named Unicron. Apparently he's a big deal where they came from. And here, I guess.

[WAIT... W A I T.]

You remember the Metrotitan‽

[heroicpose]

[ Yeah. Good job, Swerve. Actually, Rodimus still isn't too happy with you. ]

Unicron. Never heard of him before.

[ That was a weird question. ]

Don't think I could forget him that easily.

[chatterbot]

[Name a time Rodimus has ever been too happy with him.]

Yeah, that's what I said. [Shrug.] Not like we can do much with the info if it is true, but it's nice to know.

[Oh hey look a good point to this conversation.]
Then it is with great difficulty that I take my title of Explainer of Everything That Happened With Crystal City And A Little Before It to you. Because most of the crew doesn't remember it happening, or it hasn't happened for them yet. One of those two.

We'll see about that.

[ Determination, he has it. Although... the buck being handed to him makes him grimace. ]

What about Ultra Magnus? ...Drift?

Video;

[chatterbot]

Oh, yeah, no. I explained most of it to Drift, but I'm not sure about Magnus. He did seem less than annoyed to see me than I was expecting, considering. Not sure how much he remembers, or where he's from. When. Whichever one sounds like it works best.

[You take that buck and your run with it, Rodimus. You run.]

[heroicpose]

[ Rodimus rubs a hand down his face plates. Explaning that situation to Drift wouldn't be that fun. ]

I'll touch base with him. In the meantime-- [ He stabs a finger at the screen. ] You. Don't you dare disobey me again.

[chatterbot]

[Swerve has the gall to crane his head back from the screen and look at Rodimus' finger with a raised eyeridge. He's really not one for breaking rules, but he doesn't regret disobeying that order.]

I doubt you'll ever give another order I wouldn't obey, so I wouldn't worry about it. At least now you know what I won't do.

[He ain't even mad, bro. Just kind of resigned to taking shit about this for the next until one of them is dead.]

Video;

[heroicpose]

Yeah, I guess I do.

[ It's Rodimus. Of course he has epic butthurt about someone not listening to him. ]

[chatterbot]

So...

[Awkwaaaaaard]

Have fun explaining stuff!
