[Video] Well this is awkward.

[weapabilities]

[ Oh hey look, it's Drift. And it appears he's finally given up the gun on the whole trying to pretend he's not a giant awkward robot. He sucks at this whole secret thing. So have a giant robot. ]

So hi there. Uhm. Right. So I'm Drift. And I've got just a few questions.

First is that uh. I'm becoming abundantly aware that I'll probably need to find a better way to fit in here for obvious reasons. I do have something called a "Holoform" which allows me to project a solid holomatter representation of a human. But I'm really. Not a human. So there's that.

I guess what I'm asking is for some help in how humans or organics are really supposed to act.

Second, I'm looking for work. It doesn't actually have to be paid work, but anything I can do to help. My skills lie in.

Uh. Lifting heavy objects, chopping things and... well I'm pretty decent in a fight. So you know. Sparring or training self defense? Anything anyone can think of that they need help with. Please don't hesitate to ask.

[ He's a little desperate to make himself useful. ]

Cybertronian. From Cybertron. [ Redundant ]

No, no. It's okay. I don't mind.

[nonedible]

What's this Cybertron like? Is everyone where you come from a giant um...robot that's not a robot?

[weapabilities]

It's-

Ah. It doesn't matter. But yes, my species looks a lot like me, in varying degrees of color, shape, size. The usual.

[nonedible]

[That didn't answer her first questions so she frowns.]

That makes sense. Are there any animals?

[weapabilities]

I suppose there is some Cybertronian fauna. Mostly stuff like turbofoxes and petrorabbits and such.

[nonedible]

[She looks so confused by the addition of turbo and petro to the front of those otherwise normal animal names.] Are they like regular foxes and rabbits?

[weapabilities]

Uh, well I mean. I guess there are some similarities.

The translation from our language is the closest that could be found for that kind of thing, since they do look similar in some ways.

[nonedible]

[Taicea rubs her head and frowns. She wants to ask more about what they look like but the more Drift talks the more confused she becomes. So instead she just nods and accepts what he says.]

Like our foxes and rabbit but more like you? [It's hard to imagine.]

1/2

[weapabilities]

Yes, yes exactly.

[ He never thought he'd wish for a picture of a turbofox... ]

Wait hold on.

[ The sound of shuffling. ]

2/2

[weapabilities]

[ He drew you a picture! ]



A turbofox.

[ Redundant, no? ]

[nonedible]

[She just kind of stares for a few moments.]

It has a lot of tails.

[weapabilities]

Yeah... they do.

I kinda got the ears wrong but, eh. Details.

[nonedible]

Are the rabbits like that too? With lots of tails?

[weapabilities]

Well no, not exactly. But they look close enough.

[nonedible]

Oh. That's neat!

[weapabilities]

Where are you from, if I may ask?

[nonedible]

A world called Tyria. Although the continent in which we live on has the same name.

[weapabilities]

That must be confusing.

And your name?

[nonedible]

I suppose it would be to anyone not from there.

Oh, right! I've been so rude! Forgive me, I'm Taicea.

[weapabilities]

No worries. It's nice to meet you, Taicea.

[nonedible]

It's nice to meet you as well, Drift!

Well, as much of a meeting as it is over these devices.

[weapabilities]

Well- ahah. I suppose you do have a point.

[nonedible]

I still find these devices quite strange but at least I know how to use them now. [Except she still can't quite figure out how to private stuff.]

We don't have anything quite like this back on Tyria.

[weapabilities]

Really? No tech like this?

[nonedible]

We have some, but nothing like this. We can't talk to people far away with such each. Not without something that's been magically enchanted to do so.
