[You know what's fun? Sitting around feeling depressed and listless. Chromedome's done a lot of that lately, and now he's struggling to pull himself out of it. That's not what Rewind would want, though thoughts of Rewind are what push him down to begin with. It's a sort of a vicious cycle.

When Chromedome appears on the network, he seems his usual cheery self.

Well, you organics sure know how to keep busy.

[Someone hasn't really been paying attention.]

So who wants to answer a few questions for a mildly curious Cybertronian? I can't promise prizes, but I might be able to promise an interesting conversation.

Are we allowed to ask questions in return?

[...:(] Well, that's too bad. I had a lot of good ones all ready!

But I still like interesting conversation, so I don't mind answering yours!

I think they're good questions...! But they're also my questions, so you might not think the same.

[spoilers: they're not good questions.]

But that sounds great to me! Why don't you go first?

I'm Morgan! Nice to meet you.

What's your name?

[It's only fair to start with introductions.]
tipthescales: (neutral)

That's interesting name! Actually, funnily enough, my father's name is Chrom... But it's not pronounced the same as your name, so I guess they aren't that similar after all.

[anyway after that tangent that had nothing to do with anything-]

I'm from the Halidom of Ylisse. It's on the continent of Ylisse. How about you?

So your country has trouble with war too? [clearly, Cybertron is a country]

But, let's see... There are three kingdoms on the continent. Ylisse is in the southeast. It's mostly plains and mountains. Plegia is to the west, and it has more desert areas. Regna Ferox is to the north. It's usually cold and snowy. Anyway, Ylisse is ruled by an Exalt, which right now is my father, Chrom. He works to protect the citizens from bandits, enemy armies, Risen, things like that. Lately it's been mostly Risen, since the Fell Dragon Grima is trying to destroy the world.

[anyway that's it for the casual geography lesson! ...fortunately Morgan is not at all offended by the last question.] And I'm male! Although apparently, there's a female me in another world, but that's a complicated situation.

More or less. Grima was the trigger that caused a few other wars. And if he's not stopped, our world will probably become uninhabitable, too, at least for humans.

If your whole world was destroyed, though... where did you go? Another Outrealm?[what is space travel. what is space, for that matter]

An Outrealm is... [wow, it's hard to explain. But traveling to one must be what Chromedome did, even if the words are different!] It's another world. We could visit them through the Outrealm Gate. Some seemed very close to our world, while others were... very different, like the one where Risen were vegetarian. I'd actually call this city an Outrealm, but no one else here seems to.

[Anyway-] Okay, here's my question for you!

What do you look like without the armor?

[because clearly Chromedome must be a mountain of muscle even more spectacular than Kjelle to wear armor like that!

those references to 'organics'? flew right over Morgan's head.]
