My name's Gig. I serve aboard the Nemesis in my own dimension, under my Megatron.

There are a fair number of 'Cons running around the place from Pit knows how many dimensions. I'd like to know who is aligned with who, and who is going to be taking charge of the forces in the area. Who is our figurehead here.

[ He laughs awkwardly. ]

Mostly, I want to know how we're dealing with all these Autobots. Whether or not the war is over seems to vary from dimension to dimension, but where I'm from we weren't exactly getting along. I don't want to turn my back and get shot down or something.

[ Public ]

So are the dead... not staying dead now? The only time that happened in my world, Dark Energon was involved, and the mechs affected weren't what you'd call, uh. Well they didn't exactly retain all of their mental faculties from when they were properly alive, y'know? That First Aid guy seemed pretty normal, besides the whole 'was dead' thing.

And... What's with all these guys showing up in the trash heap? Are the temples broken or something?

I still don't understand what happened but I'm glad that they are back.

Dark energon? Explain 'didn't exactly retain all of their mental faculties'.

Wait, so...they really did come back from the dead? It wasn't just a mistake that they were just thought to have died?

...I'm not sure what's going on.

I don't believe there's been an official explanation released yet. Maybe the Firstforged don't even know.

Either way, I can't say I'm upset certain people are coming back from the dead. I just hope it doesn't lead to something devastating. Like a calm before the storm.

If any think they have greater claim than I, I invite them to bring it up with me.

Unfortunately killing them all isn't an option.

Look, I know. I know how it feels to not know if you're gonna get shot at or punched by an Autobot, dude.

But the war ain't gonna progress here. No point. We should live in peace.

[He's still looking a little worse for wear - he was only just yesterday dragged back into Haven from . . . things he still can't even remember. Still, his optics are clear and his bearing firm.]

Gig . . . for what it's worth, welcome to Haven. I am Thundercracker. I have aligned myself with the Megatron who is here - [He's not yet aware that there's more than one now, as of the past few days.] - but that was a personal choice. No one can speak for every individual here, among either the Autobots or the Decepticons, but as a whole the war does not exist here and any action of one mech against another is . . . discouraged, regardless of the faction of either side. If there are any here who are leaders, even figureheads, I'd say it's the First-Forged, though they seem disinclined to take a definitive command of us. [For which, frankly, he's glad.]

And . . . what is this about people showing up in the trash heap?

[Again, he's been out of touch for the past week-plus.]

I died.

Now I'm back.

I don't fully understand why either, but the Firstforged have something to do with it.

Gig.

[ Never heard of you. You look like that one he squashed not long ago. ]

You can't think for yourself? Follow your own rules?

Tell me a bit more about 'Dark Energon', won't you?

[Audio]

[neverputincharge]

I don't get it either. People who die are supposed to stay dead. Not come back to life. [Not that he's not happy to have Wheeljack back.

Also, why's he talking to you?]

Yeah, they seem normal, other than they don't remember dyin'.
