[ Ahh yes, here he is again, your resident robot. ]

Since there seems to be an influx of new people suddenly, I'd like to extend my invitation for a free living space to all. My name is Drift. I've been fixing up this old building, I assume it was a factory of some kind. I find myself at a surplus of empty rooms.

Anyone is welcome to stay here long term or short term, you will have a room of your own, privacy and my protection as you are under my roof.

I only ask that you are peaceful and do not disturb the others living here.

That said, if anyone would like to donate any human-sized beds or furnishings, I would be very grateful, as I am not asking money of anyone who stays.

If you have any questions or would like to come stay here, don't hesitate to ask. I don't bite.

What the fuck. Are you a talking robot?

[weapabilities]

[ Sigh. ]

Sure I am.

[ He's just given up at this point. ]

[liprings]

Who the fuck brought in talking robots? [ He looks on the verge of cracking up, but pauses. ] --Wait, hang on, "human sized"? How big're you?

[weapabilities]

Well that's insulting.

How big? About seventeen, eighteen feet. Why?

[liprings]

Haha, shit! So how big's your junk?

[weapabilities]

M...

My junk?

[Now there's a welcome face. Billy flashes a thin smile.]

I'd hoped you were still here.

[smellslikefish]

Why are you doing this?

[weapabilities]

Billy! Of course I am. Where would I go?

[weapabilities]

What, the housing thing? Because I have extra space and doing nothing with it seems selfish and pointless.

[smellslikefish]

But you could ask for . . . things. Money. Things for yourself. And yet you do not.

[She frowns at him for a few seconds before huffing a sigh.]

What are you, please.

[oncearanger]

I disappeared for...judging by the network, it must've been two weeks. I've come back to find a lot of my friends missing, and I've been worried.

[weapabilities]

This place does not really have anything I want that I couldn't find or build myself, or that I possess already. Besides. Helping someone is the highest calling one can aspire to.

[ Oh right yes. ]

Me? I'm a cybertronian.

F... from Cybertron.

[ Yes that explains so much, Drift. ]

[weapabilities]

Do you want help looking for them?

[smellslikefish]

[She raises an eyebrow, unimpressed.]

Is that a sea or a country?

[oncearanger]

I could look, but I'm concerned. It's an unusually high number of Transports vanishing over such a short time period.

[weapabilities]

It... does seem off. Do you think they're finally sending people home?

[ HAHA. That's pathetically hopeful and even he cringes at himself. ]

Is there uh. Is there any correlation do you think?

[weapabilities]

It's a planet.

[oncearanger]

I don't have enough data for an educated hypothesis, but I'm going to take a look around.

[smellslikefish]

You are not very good at explaining things.

[weapabilities]

I know.

Look, just uh. I'm an alien from another planet made up of inorganic life?

[weapabilities]

Want a snooping buddy?

[oncearanger]

Yeah. Investigation, round two.

I'm looking through the network archive now.

[weapabilities]

Well, I'm your mech. Taking a look myself, too.

[oncearanger]

Speaking of that, are you feeling well?
