[ 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 still calling yourself that?

Rodimus Prime?

[Excuse him as he just stares and then snorts, managing to suppress the smirk almost completely. Rodimus, yeah, Hot Rod's changed his name, but Prime?]

Lookin' kinda skinny compared to the mech I know... An' no one's responsible for you bein' here, or anyone else of us. Or if something's responsible, it's up there in the sky.

[And yet another mech who's woken up in the Junk Pile instead of in a temple... what the slag is going on?]

[Video]

[vandalization]

Oh oh oh! You're like. That Rodimus? The one Drift told me about?

If you're talking about sicking Magnus on them, it's a bit late for that!

[sword_redemption]

Rodimus!

[He has never been so glad to see anyone, so Rodimus's mood just...skates off him like water off a proverbial duck.]

Where are you?

[rungout]

[This place really does attract bots from the Lost Light doesn't it>]

Unfortunately it's not as simple as kidnapping, sir, though I wish it were, all things considered.

[There's an apologetic ring to his voice, Rung giving his commanding officer a weak sort of smile.]

Rodimus.

You haven't been kidnapped. We're all here due to an accident, more or less.

[If he's glad to see you, Ultra Magnus is hiding that really, really well.]

[Video]

[raceme]

[Rodimus, crew...sounds familiar, yes.] Are you the leader of the Lost Light? Some other mechs here mentioned you.

You have been dragged to a different universe through the lambda _{that bright thing in the sky} it's a rift in the space time continuum NONE of us knows exactly why but it happened Please don't try to kill any Decepticons you might encounter things work different here.

[percept]

Hello, Rodimus. I take it you were not given instruction on the situation by an Acolyte?

[winged_knight]

[Well, this is uncanny timing indeed. It's a shame Wing's looking less than his best today.]

Rodimus? From the Lost Light, yes? There is a number of your crew here already. Drift and Ultra Magnus among them.

[Wing is none too pleased that the mech Drift has spoken so highly of is past of this current mystery. He'll just hold out enough hope to double check...]

Sorry if this seems rude but, do you have any strange new markings or glyphs on your frame? Similar to this? [He twists to show the brightly glowing golden glyph on his shoulder nacelle.]

[sixmillionyears]

Rodimus! [ OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN. ]

Wow, there sure are a lot of us showing up in the trash.

[video]

[aerospacecommander]

Primus, another one of you?

[Video]

[young_upstart]

[He's getting really weirded out by that name being thrown around, but it's only a moment before he realizes that he's not the one being addressed this time. And he kind of gapes a bit before finally speaking up.]

R... So you're Rodimus... Wait- did you say Prime??

VIDEO;

[inferiordude]

Roddy!

[Okay, sure, totally wrong version and you're probably still a way more decent guy than the one he got to know, but still! Whatever!]

So, you're like. The captain of a ship, right?

[video]

[rednotbluethx]

THERE'S TWO OF YOU AN' YER A PRIME!?

Wit the way you whine, an' the fact there's two of yous, I'm just gonna call you Princess Rodimus.

[audio]

[rstlsslegsyndrm]

I think, so far, the best answer as to how and why you're here remains the time and space tear bleeding together universes and randomly spewing us out. Supposedly.

With you and the... recent group, I'm not sure.

And what ship would you be the commander of, might I ask? A lot of people have been inquiring about the Lost Light in my time here. Which apparently I - or another copy of myself - have been a crewmember of.

[pause] Ambulon. Don't suppose you recognize the designation?

VIDEO;

[forcowardice]

Rodimus Prime.

...Nope, don't think I've ever heard of you.

[Video]

[justthedoctor]

Yeaaah, sorry, Roddy - can I call you Roddy - but it doesn't look like you'll be gettin' home anytime soon. Apperently you an' all the rest of us got swallowed up by a great big crack in the universe. [Have a thoroughly humorless smile.]

[If he were his Eleventh incarnation, the irony would be absolutely ridiculous.]
