[ Excuse the awkward robot with the ears. ]

Hi there. I know we've had some new arrivals recently. My name is Drift and I'm-

I'm an Autobot. I want to apologize for all the commotion lately. Things seem to have um. Settled. They've settled.

On that note, I'd love to open the option of self defense classes to anyone who is interested, or if you are already inclined, I'd be happy to spar.

So. Um. Let me know! Humans, cybertronians, and any other species fully welcome! If you'd like to learn swordplay, I'd also be happy to teach.

Drift out!

[ Awkward wave. ]

Well, Chromia's teaching me, but I could stand to have multiple teachers I guess.

AUDIO;

[butwonderful]

I would be happy to.

[forcowardice]

Thanks, Drift. I'm not very strong, but I'm a fast runner. Got that going for me.

AUDIO;

[butwonderful]

We'll start there then, always a way to use speed to your advantage.

AUDIO;

[forcowardice]

Sure. Okay. Like... running.

[knightunbraided]

What a marvelous idea! I could use a few lessons myself!

[Is he being coy? Naaaaaah.]

[Video]

[butwonderful]

I highly doubt I could teach you a damn thing.

[Video]

[knightunbraided]

As far as you know.

You might surprise me. You've done it before.

[Video]

[butwonderful]

Oh stop.

[arnhaid]

Oh. So you're Drift, huh?

... Kinda expected you'd be. Bigger.

[butwonderful]

Ironhide?

We've met before, though. What do you mean, bigger?

video;

[arnhaid]

Yyyup.

Uh... 'bout that. I don't ever ... remember. Meetin' you.

But yeah uh. Y'know.

[He makes a vague sort of gesture like giving an invisible person Linebacker Shoulders Of Robot God.]

[butwonderful]

Okayyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Must be one of those weird time things.

[toughtalk]

Hey, don't go stealing all my thunder.

[She's joking, of course, but this is the first time she's smiled in awhile.]

You still owe me a spar, though.

[Video]

[butwonderful]

Ready any time you are!

And I think there is plenty of thunder to share. Lots of good thunder sharing.

[Video]

[toughtalk]

Be careful what organics you say that to. Apparently thunder is one of their many talents.

[Video]

[butwonderful]

Wait what? Really?

[video]

[now_i_know]

[And, in this corner, a robot girl that is so, so confused.]

...okay, yeah. I know I've been seeing you guys around but that just makes me have to ask.

Just what ARE you guys? An American-made android or somethin'?

[video]

[butwonderful]

We're aliens! Actually everyone is technically aliens if they're on a different planet. So right now, we're aliens. Cybertronians.

From. Cybertron.

[ Somewhat redundant. ]

[now_i_know]

Robot aliens? Is that some kinda joke or somethin'?

[Not that she's one to talk. She's just the type that questions everything she hears that sounds completely ridiculous.]

[butwonderful]

No need to be rude now.

[little_girl_lost]

Is settled good enough?

I could learn some sword-fighting, maybe.

[butwonderful]

Nothing is ever really settled. We just do a little bit better every time.

Well, if you have a sword or even like. A stick or something, I could teach you.

[little_girl_lost]

Well, no, but if I get my hands on some scrap metal I could probably make one.

[weapabilities]

Fair enough, just tell me when.
