WHO: THE CREW OF THE LOST LIGHT
WHERE: MACCADAM’S OLD OIL HOUSE
WHEN: BEFORE DRIFT AND RATCHET GET MAULED BY TARN, AFTER THE RODIMUS/TARN INCIDENT
WHAT: INFORMATION SHARING AND PEOPLE DRINKING TOGETHER
WARNINGS: NONE MAN, NONE

Informality is the name of the game here, people. Rodimus and Megatron, through some handwaved miracle have managed to talk to each other without yelling long enough to get the word out that hey - if you’re a part of the crew you’d better show up for some Important Information and Crew Bonding. But probably not phrased like that unless you talked to Rodimus. Drinks, however, were totally promised (again by Rodimus). You just have to make them yourself, although that was not clarified.

There is a sign on the front door that says NO TARNS ALLOWED. The plural is important since there’s like. Four goddamn Megatrons.

Topics covered:

Tarn is here btw and that sucks for everyone so. Don’t.

For the time being they’re going to include Brainstorm as an Autobot - he starts acting like a Decepticon and any crew member has the right to punch him until he stops.

Drift is acting third-in-command. Non-negotiable.

AND FOR GOD’S SAKE DO NOT ANTAGONIZE DECEPTICONS WHO ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU, RODIMUS.

Ideas of why/how they got here - this includes getting the crew caught up (who hasn’t been already) on the quantum ships as well as what they know of the Brainstorm situation.

People who are capable of doing things to make life less sucky should do that. Team Rodimus! This is your moment!

AND MORE, POSSIBLY.

The rest of this post is to mingle, talk to your crew members. If you have questions that need to be addressed to either captain, specify which one you want if you have one in mind or otherwise one or the other/both will get to it!

If there is anything your character would bring up to the group as a whole, feel free to make a thread for that too - this is really kind of a free-for-all group post to have people mingle and gossip and hammer out something to do!

"You didn't mind Magnus before. Won't mind it, whatever." Just because he didn't say anything doesn't mean he doesn't mind it is a thought that had not occurred to Rodimus. He barely had time to come clean, let alone decide on a name to call Magnus that was agreed on by all parties.

"Good," was his response, a smile flickering across his face. "Now we just have to figure out how to get back. Brainstorm and Nautica are here, it won't take them very long."

They could use Percy though, all things considered.

"Well it would no doubt be more applicable if I had retrieved the Magnus Armor, continued to serve with a crew that knew me primarily by that moniker, and things had been resolved regarding Tyrest, but none of those things have happened, yet, have they. Besides," he hesitated a moment, suddenly very conscious about what he was about to say, "this is a good opportunity to distance myself from all of that. A fresh start perhaps."

He turned away quickly, looking over the crowd again before gesturing to the one purple and gold bot in the room.
"Speaking of new starts, this Nautica joined the Lost Light on it's second launch? What can you tell me about her?"

"For you," he points out. The ease with which the crew simply didn't care was something Rodimus liked about his crew. They were good people. "But sure, Magnus." Good job, Rodimus. "Minimus," he corrected, giving Magnus-- Minimus a smile. He was never sure how the dual names worked out for the people that used them. Fort Max was always Fort Max and Prime was either or and sometimes both. But Minimus is closer to Magnus than Ambus is, and that's what he decides to use. He can't fault the other for wanting a fresh start - it's something he'd wanted after Overlord, something he thought he had before it was taken from him.

"Nautica?" He shrugged, tucking his arms behind his helm. "Not much - you met her first, actually, when you and the rest of the crew found Metroplex." Ask him where he was at that point in time, Minimus, it'll be a great story. "She does magic with Percy and Brainstorm."
