Greetings.

I am Ultra Magnus, second-in-command of the Lost Light. It appears that this place is primarily populated by various organic species, so I will add that I am also a Cybertronian.

As I understand that I am indefinitely stuck here like the rest of you for the time being, I would like to better understand the environment and what your lives here have been like for however long you have been here.

This is not a normal situation. I want to learn more.


[Private from Krok|Public otherwise]

Additionally, I understand that a Decepticon has been here for the past couple of months.

If he has terrorized you in any way, I would gladly accept any reports. It would then be dealt with accordingly.

Not sick, just. Weak.

No. I have no interest in taking part in this situation.

[butwonderful]

Well.

[ Drift makes a face, shrugging. ]

Maybeeeee. Maybe that's what's wrong.

[thehardway]

No.

[okay maybe but he doesn't want to believe it.]

[butwonderful]

How about a handshake or five just to be sure.

[thehardway]

I'm not-- what?

[butwonderful]

Well it wouldn't hurt to try. And someone told me that counts.

Mmmmm... wait do you prefer Magnus or Minimus?

[thehardway]

Hmmm.

Whichever? Honestly. I'm fine with being both.

[butwonderful]

With all due respect, you're... still Magnus.

[ He holds out his hand. ]

But it's good to re-meet you.

[thehardway]

I appreciate that.

[Minimus looks down at the hand offered. If Drift is right about this, then that means he could only get sicker.

He has to be healthy, if he wants to find a way out of here. So that means playing along for now.

His hand slides into Drift's.]

Let's. Start over with each other. Okay?

[butwonderful]

I-

Really?

[ But Magnus hates him. Then again, he doesn't know what happened to him exactly since he left. ]

[thehardway]

Really.

You didn't bring Overlord onto the ship. You aren't at fault for that. I get that. And as much as I wanted to believe it, the universe isn't black and white.

[butwonderful]

Well. Okay.

That's fair. Never thought I'd be hearing it from you.

[thehardway]

I'm not the same as you may remember me. Armor or otherwise.

[butwonderful]

Definitely in the face area.

But yeah, I catch your meaning.
