[Video | By the Lake]

[While he hasn't been overly social as of late--outside of hanging out with Blades here and there and fanboying over Prime, Smokescreen has been at least keeping tabs on everything. So he knows that things have been kind of weird.

And now he's worried because he hasn't heard from or seen certain individuals in awhile.]

Has anyone seen Prime--my Prime, the one from mine and Bulkhead's home? I haven't been able to track him down.

[And he's worried. Because he doesn't want to lose his ~~father figure~~ leader.]

Not that I don't think Optimus can't take care of himself or anything...I'm just wanted to report in. You all know how it goes, right?

[He fidgets a bit, doorwings drooping some as he glances over at the lake.]

...Bulkhead? Wheeljack? Cliffjumper? You guys alright too?

...you haven't heard from Arcee, have ya? I haven't heard a thing since her whole thing over the link.

Optimus was at that party thing a while ago. [Hard to miss him there.] Seen a ouple things over the link, but that's it. Strange that he doesn't check up on us.

Arcee's here?

[You learn something new everyday.]

It is..Blades and I met up with him when he first got here but I haven't seen him much as of late...guess I'm just worried and all. What with everything goin on I mean...

She...is, yeah. [Or was, he's starting to wonder if she disappeared like Ratchet did.]

You're not the only one. What I've heard that might happen to him and others without Glyphs isn't helping. [He really doesn't want to think about his leader turning into a monster.]

[Aw Smokescreen, you're a sweetie.]

Smokescreen. I am...still online. Although I am maintaining my distance from our team until my Glyphless state is thoroughly explained.

I...hope you understand.

I talked to him briefly and I saw him around. I think he's fine but it's sweet of you to care.

Optimus...

[No, he understands it. Much as he doesn't like it.]

What's your status? [Besides 'still online']

Yeah it--

[The idea of Optimus being anything but awesome and good is weird to Smokescreen and he just doesn't understand how it could happen.]

...There has to be some way to help them, Bulkhead..

[Oh thank Primus! There's the voice he wanted to hear!]

I'm really glad to hear you're alright, Optimus. Really, really glad.

[Now if only he could see you.]

I...are....you sure, sir? I mean, we could help you. You don't have to do this alone.

As long as he's still around and not gone....I just don't want anything to happen to my Prime from home, you know?

...There's an Optimus Prime around here?

[Well someone's drastically out of the loop! He kind of guesses that this isn't the one from his universe though, which is wildly disappointing.]

I'm sure they're tryin' to find a way.

[There has to be something.]

We gotta keep up hope, kid. Optimus is better than this. I mean he defeated Unicron once on our world. [Surely if anybody can fight this, it's Optimus. ....right?]

Yes, I understand. Are you two close?

So, you're one of the "good" robots? [Your insignia and all.]

I spoke to a Cybertronian named Cliffjumper not long ago. Can't help you with the others, however.

Is Prime, um... Is he like your, uh... your creator or what-have-you?

[Basically: "Oh, little boy, are you lost and looking for your daddy?"]

I am stable, Bulkhead. I did not intend to cause worry. I had picked up a signal from a Megatron of another universe, trying to attract those into a fight with him.

I hoped to deviate his ambitions.

[He can tell you're relieved, Smokescreen, he just wishes...he was as well.]

I did not intend to worry you, Smokescreen. I have had...matters that needed to be dealt with.

Smokescreen.

I have a request.

[And he knows you'll relay it to the other Autobots.]

I know, I know. Optimus is the best so I mean I know he can handle this...I just don't want him to have to do it alone I guess.

[Cue him rubbing the back of his neck a bit.]

Understood, sir.

[Doesn't mean he likes you being alone though.

His optics flicker, door wings lifting just a touch at the mention of a request.]

Anything, Optimus. Just name it.

Well he's my leader

The leader of the Autobots I mean.

I really respect him.

...Yes.....Are you a cat?

[Well hello there human that he hasn't met yet.]

Really? Wait--I think..there's a couple Cliffjumpers....What did he look like exactly? If you don't mind telling me.

[Smokescreen tilts his head a bit, considering what she asked with a confused sort of look.]

No, he's my leader.

Ultra Magnus was like that for em when I was at home.

I do understand.

Should this glyphless state affect me in any way that would seem harmful to those around us...

[You know where this is going, Smokey.]

I don't either. We need to be there with him, for him. We're his team. ...family. [He'll leave off that there's only three from the team here.] He would do the same for us.

[Only Optimus doesn't want them to. It has him conflicted.]

Exactly. We're all one another's got here so we've got to stick together.

[Plus, he hero worships Optimus--as well as Bulkhead and Wheeljack but shh--so he's determined to help somehow.]

Oh! All right. Sorry about that. [titter]

Um, red paint job. Blue eyes. Had small horn-like nodules on his head. A bit boxy. Very serious.

[smirks] I'm only now realizing there's alternate dimension duplicates of the same person on this Cybertron.
