[OPEN] Arrival
Who: Optimus Prime & You
Where: The Clinic, The Crater
When: After Optimus (IDW)'s return to the city
What: Optimus Prime arrives on the planet
Warnings: ?
THE CLINIC
Wandering through the destroyed city, Optimus took a moment to consider how getting suddenly transported to another planet was pretty high on the list of strange things that had happened in his life, a list that had grown much quicker in the past few months than he would have thought possible. This was certainly not a specific scenario they'd trained for at the Autobot Academy, that's for sure.
With so many buildings in serious disrepair, finding one that not only seemed intact but to have working electricity was a surprise to say the least. With some apprehension he made his way over to the building, cautiously sticking his head in the doorway and hoping whoever, or whatever, might be inside was friendly.
"Hello? Anyone here?"
THE CRATER
Optimus had left the clinic some time ago to try and get a better feel for the city. It was pretty unnerving how much the ruins looked like Cybertron, and the silence was starting to get to him by the time he made it to a huge crater in the middle of everything. An unrefined energon deposit? Just sitting here unguarded in the middle of the city? That was certainly strange. Even if there weren't many bots here, leaving a resource like that unprotected went against everything he'd learned at the academy.
He quickly made his way down into the crater, sliding down some of the steeper slopes to get to the energon vein, running a hand over the rough crystal with a frown.

"That's... you mean like The Magnus?"
He didn't know what the Matrix of Leadership was but it sounded less like the Magnus Hammer and more like... the Allspark.
"You're telling me you-" he paused, pointing at the other prime so there was no confusion here, "you, Optimus Prime, are the leader of the Autobots? Of ALL the Autobots?"
no subject
"I am. Before the war, Primes were considered the unquestionable leaders of Cybertron. When my time came, I became Leader of the Autobots, and a military commander. But it has always been a leadership role, and an important title."
To say the least.

He finally managed to reply, still looking pretty shocked by the news, and maybe a little shaken.
"Sorry. Maybe I shouldn't be so surprised. After all, who knows what might have happened if things....had gone differently..."
He trailed off, thinking of all the things Ultra Magnus had said before he was expelled from the Autobot Academy, about his potential as a leader or lack thereof.
He turned away, a sinking feeling in his chest. Working to put all that behind him was hard enough, finding out you were actually the worse of two versions of was not something he was prepared to deal with.
