re_alignment | [Video] [Originating from the Junkpile]

[A pile of junk was the last place he'd expected to end up, to be perfectly honest. In fact, it was the farthest thing from Autobot Outpost Omega 1 that you could get...well, at least now that Ratchet swept it up. The large Autobot rose from his position, brushing off the debris that seemed to collect from his initial entrance. He doesn't seem to really react to any of it, as if he was basically just acknowledging 'yep, I just landed in a trash heap. Oh well'. Out of all of the useless junk, there is one thing that catches his eye. The Link. He picks it up, eyebrow perked. Interesting...it seemed to be a communications device. He'd have to take a look at this.

But that didn't mean he wouldn't waste time with IMPORTANT things. His eyes immediately began to scan his surroundings, pupils dilating and contracting as he shifts immediately towards the stars. He always felt that the cosmos offered a better map than the landscape, although he wasn't exactly prepared for the results. And, like a camera lens, those eyes widen in shock. It was...Cybertron. There was no way he could be mistaken.

He wouldn’t hesitate to use the Link either, especially if it seemed to have communication properties. After all, he had to find his soldiers. At moments like this, it was best to stick together.]

Autobots, report in. This is Optimus Prime, and I fear we seem to have traveled somehow to our homeworld. It’s appearance is not as I remember, as if it has yet to be built. If you are nearby I will send my coordinates.

If not, report me yours so I may locate you.

[His gaze went from the stars to the layout of the land. A pile of junk...he certainly didn’t remember that, but some of the landscape was definitely ringing some bells in his processor. Or at least...they were similar enough. There were a few petite differences, but the gorges, canyons, mountains...they aligned with his own vision.]

Cybertron...

Hey Optimus~! You finally made it!

[She is trying, fairly well, to cover up the fact that she is still upset from losing Wheeljack and Bulkhead's injury in general.]

[Excuse me young lady but what the fuck are you doing on Cybertron without a spacesuit or oxygen tanks or anything please feel free to explain that to him because right now he is sort of trying to figure that out okay thanks.]

Miko.

[Yes, that's who she is, Optimus.]

What are you doing here.

[She hasn't had any problems here. Well, okay that is a little bit of a lie, food isn't easy to get, but aside from that she has been fine.]

Yup, it's me. I never thought I would get to see Cybertron! Pretty cool, huh?

[Here she just shrugs.]

Apparently we were brought here by the Lambda. Something about us helping protect this place or something. I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention, but it was a 'not my choice' thing.

[What is cool is that a parasite because he certainly doesn't know the meaning of the word cool. Do you know what he DOES know? Asphyxiation. And you might suffer from it.]

So you were transported here for a purpose.

It seems as if the atmosphere does not affect you...

Yeah, I guess so, no body has really brought it up much though.

Nope, I don't know if it's because this is a different Cybertron or what, but I think it's awesome!

[NO ONE BROUGHT IT UP? DOES ANYONE HAVE A BRAIN?!

No but seriously, that's worrying. But...more important matters (yes, more than child asphyxiation) are at hand.]

I am to assume Bulkhead is keeping an eye on you.

Kind of more that I'm keeping an eye on him. He was still hurt when he showed up here. But there are lots of nice bots here that are making sure I'm okay.

[She tried to think of who would be safe to mention, automatically reconsidering Starscream and Soundwave, at least until Optimus could meet them.]

It is good to see you making friends, Miko. And please, do not rush into anything without our assistance.

I won't, I'm being good.

[She isn't going to mention the part about how she already got herself lost out on the outer edges of the area that is still reasonably safe.]

[He smiles slightly, nodding his head. He is so glad you're staying out of trouble ~~yes it would be good not to mention that, Miko. You'd be grounded faster than you can say 'Slash Monkey'~~]

So... this is a bit strange to be saying to you of all people, but if you need to know where something is or anything, just ask. If I don't know I can ask around to people that do.

Thank you, Miko. You are more experienced in this world, so I will take you up on that should I need the assistance.

Sure thing Optimus~! Since we are all kind of stuck here there's been a lot of working together and helping each other out.

It is a good thing to see that there are more Cybertronians willing to assist you than to see you as a Decepticon would.

[She shifts a little, in that way that implies the next thing she says may not be taken well.]

Well, you see, that's the thing... some of them are Decepticons, they are just... really cool and aren't all about killing humans or anything.

[This face.]

Really they are super nice, I promise~! They've been really good about helping me when I need it, or even could just use it.

I want you to maintain caution, Miko.

[Seriously why do you do this to him he's going to have a spark attack.]

I do, honest, I don't see any body around here without someone from home there.

[Well there were a few times that she had ended up around Soundwave without others there, but he was like extra safe.]

[That's definitely a relief to his spark.]

Thank you.

Of course. Last thing I want is to trust the wrong people.
