01 [video • prima's temple]

...Riiight. Pretty amazing what they can do with sims these days.

[There's a vaguely bird-like alien on the feed, looking just slightly amused at the story he was just fed by one of the Acolytes. Was he really supposed to believe that? That questioning, raised brow plate says otherwise.]

Not really my thing though. I might know a friend who would be interested.

[So someone please point him to the exit port out of here. He really has other things to get back to, dealing with VR ads is not something he wants to be sitting in at the moment.]

((ooc: Feel free to poke this space raptor at Prima's temple))

[Conquer everything? And here he was hoping you guys would be nicer than their own local synthetic subjugators.]

Hm. Can I get back to you on that?

[The feed shifts to show blank shoulder plating, though that's because it's covering his actual arm. It's not a sleeve either, it'd take some time to take off a hard suit like his. Plus he wasn't about to remove his clothes in public, that's not his thing.]

[He's trying to be nicer. It's harder than it looks, okay?]

It's kind of important. [Because the First Forged had hinted that anyone without a glyph should be watched if not executed outright.]

Wait. Did you wake up in the Temple or the junk pile?

[video]

[heatsink]

[Well at least he speaks normally, rather than just digital chatter or bringer of the apocalypse speeches. It's a good start.]

I woke up in the temple.

[He's catching on that there's something else not being said here.]

Why's that important?

[video]

[sword_redemption]

[A nod. That was a relief, at least. ]

Because recently people have started arriving without them and, well, we're not really sure what that means.

[heatsink]

Does this have to do with Primus?

[The Acolyte mentioned something about how it linked them to their magical robot god.]

[So.]

[It was a good guess.]

[He's trying to keep all your crazy robot religion rules straight okay.]

[video]

[sword_redemption]

It might. The First Forged aren't really always that, uh, clear with us.

The unmarked thing might have more to do with Unicron, though. [That clears that right up, yeah?]

[video]

[heatsink]

[Uni-what? Okay, he'll just roll with it. It doesn't seem like they could really guess it with the information they have now.]

So the planet's fairly lawless outside these temples then?

[Unless there's some other authority he hasn't heard of.]

[video]

[sword_redemption]

Not entirely. We've formed a police force and a law committee.

Or, well, others have. [There was no way either would have accepted Drift, so he'd wisely just not applied.]

Because not everyone who shows up here is, well...nice. [Overlord and Prism, for example.]

[video]

[heatsink]

Yeah. Every place's got it's crooks.

[You guys seem a little more independent-minded than the synthetic species he's used to. He's going to assume a society vaguely similar to organics, here.]

[And if that's the case, he's all too familiar with what happens when you let the thugs and scum do what they want.]

Good to hear someone's doing something to keep them in check.

Most of our problems have been a, uh, a little more serious. [Level 10 on the Galactic Council's list, and all--Cybertronians don't seem to do petty crime.]

It is good. Better when we all come together and decide what our laws will be.
