DRIFT has recently been discharged from the medibay after getting his ass kicked by Tarn, although the nasty Decepticon brand Tarn carved into his chest has now been covered up thanks to Rodimus giving Drift his own badge.

JUNE has been hanging around the medibay, trying to scrounge up some supplies for a human clinic, and being a general mom.

For Drift MAKES KISSY FACES AT

[whippingboy]

Starscream's making his rounds about the populous, and it's only a matter of time before he runs into Drift. He can't help but snicker to himself before landing because hey, this should be an interesting conversation. It's not like he ever worked very closely with 'Deadlock' back when they were both still with the 'cons, but he'd certainly heard a good deal about this Cybertronian before and after his defection, and seen his face up on stage with Rodimus at the announcement for the journey of the Lost Light.

Also... well, the last time Drift had come up in conversation, Starscream had been, weirdly enough, defending him to Metalhawk while they were both paling around at Maccadam's. Just on principle that kind of makes him compelled to strike up a chat.

"Now there's a face I haven't seen in a while," Starscream says by way of greeting as he transforms and touches down nearby. "Drift. How've you been?"

[auramatic]

Drift is generally pretty civil in conversation, but even he looks at Starscream a bit like one would look at something unpleasant you've just discovered is stuck to the bottom of your shoe. Back when he was still Deadlock, they had fought together plenty of times, but you can't really say they enjoyed each other's company. Drift thought he was a massive gearshaft back then, and time hasn't exactly made him any fonder.

"Starscream," Drift responds, looking like he's trying not to make a face. He rests his hands on the hilts of his swords -- not so much a threatening gesture as one of confidence, leaning back a little. The Decepticon brand Tarn carved into his chest has since been covered with Rodimus' badge, although it's still a little visible around the edges, the edges of the deep gouges peeking through. "I can't complain." You should, Drift. You should. He looks Starscream up and down briefly. "You've got a new look, I see."

Wow no need to be rude, Drift. Starscream appreciates the effort though, noting the hand on the swords without looking directly at it. He's got swords too y'know, tough guy. You're not impressive.

"I thought it was time for a change. It seemed fitting, what with my ascension to the position of leader of all Cybertron, and the uh... well, the re-building of the planet, and everything. Everyone else was getting a fresh start so I thought, why not me? Of course, you know all about fresh starts..."

He takes a step closer before Drift can respond, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "Actually, it's too bad we're not having this conversation on our Cybertron. Your unique perspective on things would be immensely useful to the rebuilding effort. But I guess we've got our hands full with this Cybertron, huh?"

[auramatic]

Drift looks about as unimpressed as Starscream does, plus a dash of not wanting to have this conversation at all, mostly because Starscream. Maybe the salient question Drift should have asked of Autobot Megatron was why Starscream. Just why.

"We," Drift repeats flatly. What is all this we business, Starscream. But he looks at Starscream suspiciously, unwilling to take him at his word. "You can't be serious about wanting me back on Cybertron."

[whippingboy]

An airy shrug. "Why shouldn't I be serious about that?" he says simply.
