I miss home. I know that's normal, I know - I know there's nothing that can be done about it. I try to keep that in mind so it won't get to me so much. Everyone is so nice and helpful, even with everything going on. I'm very thankful, and - I would like to think I have made some friends.

[There's a pause, and he sighs softly. He suddenly isn't sure why he decided to start this feed.]

It's weird... one of the things I miss the most is hearing my language. [a little exhale, followed by a contradictory smile.] I wasn't used to speaking English for so long until I came here.

... Are all of you from English-speaking countries?

[It's rude to think of people as aliens just because they're not from Earth, right?]

What's the name of your... planet-?

Cybertron.

Cybertron. [beat.] Did you know about Earth before?

Yes, I spent some time in Japan and America.

[Oh. He frowns a little.]

How did you... travel?

To earth? In a ship, how else?

Right, right. [what were you thinking, silly Peter.] I was just wondering.

That's okay. We kind of ended up stranded there anyways.

How long?

Couple years.

You must've really missed home.

[Will he be stranded her for that long?]

Not really. My planet was not a place suited for living anymore.

[... oh.]

I'm sorry. Is... that why you came to Earth?

No. We were at war, our enemies went to Earth, like they did to many planets in hopes of taking over and cyberforming it.

We went to stop them.

What's cyberforming?

The eradication of all organic life to make way for our kind.

[blimey.]

Is that what happened to your home?

No. Our home was always like that. It's good for us, bad for organics. We nearly destroyed our own home with our war, however.

So it still exists.

Yeah but... it's never going to be the same.

Really? There's nothing that can be done?

After what we did to it? I mean, we essentially rebirthed it, so... not for a long time. It needs to stabilize.

Can't imagine what that would be like for me.
