004 - Video - at the same time as the Autobot pileup

[devilofohara]

[The feed begins with a good view of a floor covered in books and an overturned bookshelf. Gunfire can clearly be heard in the background, as well as voices that can't quite be made out coming from the other side of a wall.

And then, much louder, an enormous crash. The sound of metal hitting metal hard can be heard, preceded and followed by the same voices loudly yell at each other.

A quick adjustment later and the camera is pointing at Robin's face now, the expression she's wearing is extremely concerned, to say the absolute least.]

WHAT'S HAPPENING?! ARE WE UNDER ATTACK?

[That's literally the only thing she can imagine as the cause of this racket at the moment - and it isn't as though the Moira's crew hasn't made it's share of enemies in it's travels. And that's just the crew - who knows who the Captains, or the ship's previous crew, have pissed off in their time?]

If anyone gets this this, let me know what's happening! I'm stuck in my office right now - we never talked about battle stations before, I don't know what to do!

[The Moira might not be Robin's favorite place in the multiverse, but it is the ship she's currently residing on - she doesn't want it to be destroyed. Or, if it's going to be destroyed, she'd at least like to know far enough ahead of time to grab the people important to her and bail on the Tourist.

She's interrupted again by the sound of a large metal hull scraping against the floor.]

Allison! Sine! Doc Yewll! Chara! If you can, try to meet me in the hangar! Maybe we can get out!


[Of course, the ship isn't actually under attack, but Robin doesn't know that. She's just unfortunate enough to have this mess happening like 40 feet from the door to her office.]

REALLY??

[Hello, this is Tailgate and he seems SUPER unhappy about several things right now. First and foremost is every other member of his own species. He's even on the verge of a panic attack, because too many things are happening at once. He means to lock to this to every Cybertronian he knows, but accidentally makes it public.]

Is it really too much to ask that we don't, oh I don't know, fight each other? Because I feel like just bringing it up as a possibility is asking for the impossible!

You're going to hurt an organic if this keeps up! We're going to look really bad at this rate!

Just imagine a world where we can talk things out like rational adults! How about that! No punching or killing needed!

Aha, but that makes me the crazy one, doesn't it?

[He's not just talking about the robot pileup either. While he's not entirely 100% sure about the details, he knows that a few more scuffles have broken out here and there among them, and that's just plain ridiculous.]

[What's up world, there's another GOTDANG ROBOT posting to the network. He looks plesant enough, if not mildly disappointed. Which is kind of a lot better than the last video he was in, screaming at his clone and pissing off a Bee. But let's pretend that never happened and move on, shall we?]

My fellow crew mates, please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Starscream, I've recently been elected as the first peacetime ruler of the planet Cybertron. While my official position may not hold much by way of significance as long as I'm aboard this ship, I still consider myself to be a credible representative for the people of Cybertron, and I would be happy to answer any questions or address any concerns in regards to my people.

Very recently, a number of events involving the Cybertronian crew members aboard this ship have been brought to my attention. Events that, frankly, should never have taken place. It shames me to think that my people are capable of being so thoughtless concerning the safety of those around us, especially considering that a fair number of us do have previous experience when it comes to interacting with a smaller organic species. Simply by virtue of what we are, we are a potential threat to everyone around us. This is something that I am fully aware of, and something that I would like my fellow Cybertronians to keep in mind from this point forward. While I can't force the cooperation of my people, all things considered, I can assure you all that I intend to do everything in my power to ensure the safety and well being of our organic neighbors.

Additionally, I've been assigned the role of Arbitration Officer for the duration of my stay here, and my inbox is open to anyone seeking my services.

Thank you for your time, and have a pleasant day.
