Last time I checked I wasn't even from the same planet as humanity, and if you're that perplexed by grapes don't ever let any of them try to explain ice cream flavors or get caught between two of them as they debate if pancakes or waffles are better.
[There are things she never wanted to hear about, but had to when they adopted teenagers.]
Well I haven't seen anything close to that description either so you're safe from whoever this Drift character is, for now.
[He meant to say the odd bit of video or still image he'd paid attention to, but war and Bee tended to go together better in his brain when he was excited.]
[You know what this conversation just took a turn where text clearly isn't going to convey everything correct, especially as you mentioned a Bee. She goes fully to video now because What?]
What do you mean by Bee and War? What Cybertron are you from?
Is he mute and was he a scout during the war? Who was on his team when he was on earth?
[She doesn't actually want to believe it, but if people can be from alternate universes, alternate times can't be that far off either can it? But, there's a chance it's not the same Bee.]
There could be a chance we may just be from close but still different universes.
No one wants to be the only one, even if the other person is a stranger.
...Bee, the one I know, he lost his voicebox before Cybertron went dark. Unless a miracle happened or Ratchet was able to find a way to fix it, your Bee may not be the same Bee I know.
[And there goes a small pause as a hand covers her face for a moment, before looking back through the MID at him.]
The war is still going on when I was pulled through, so if we are from the same universe and just different times it's going to be hard to prove until we can find the common points.
It's not your fault, I didn't listen a lot when I was young. Can't really hold that against you.
If it's the same Bee and Optimus I know...that's not really much of a surprise. He does a lot for us, gave up a lot as well, just so we didn't have to do so. He's what you expect a Prime to be like, while still caring about his team as individuals as well as a whole. He set the bar pretty high for how a leader should be.
It's hard to really explain to someone who hasn't been on a team with him.
[Sorry Sideswipe, she's likely not any better about talking about Optimus.]
Bee really looks up to him, and we're all trying to prove his faith in us isn't misplaced.
History lessons can be pretty boring if the right person isn't teaching you it happens.
[That and she knows how you teenagers have the attention span of a gnat. She really can't get mad if you zoned out during a lecture that at the time didn't seem important to you.]
I'll blame Ratchet for that. You never talk badly about Optimus where Ratchet can hear you. Especially if you have to be his patient.

no subject
[As he holds his hands out in approximation of shoulders.]
He was in the war. But it's over now, because Optimus did something.

[Or the two humans back home, too. They'd be nice too.]
I don't know. He doesn't really talk about the war stuff, much. Just Optimus. He really talks about Optimus. And I know he's been on Earth before.
It's been over for a long time. Optimus did something, and then Cybertron was okay again. That's... all I know.
Sorry.

[Somehow, despite what he's saying, he's actually honestly happy about this development.]
Okay, don't be weirded out, but you totally sound like him right now. Bee, I mean. He does that too.
Yeah that's what he says.

Why? He in love with him or something?
