"Please, you can call me Optimus." The war was over, after all. And Drift, by all accounts (and by that badge, it's nice where did you get it), was last seen an Autobot.

"I called you here to discuss something about Rodimus. About something he did rather recently with you." A pause. "To be clear, I'm not upset with you."

Because haha let's not give the hippie a heart attack.
