[Closed], [Open] after
WHO: [Closed] - Optimus and non-Lost Lighters
[Open] - Optimus and YOU!
[Closed] - Optimus and Sentinel
WHERE: Near the Crater
WHEN: After Bumblebee recovers from being hurt, a few weeks after everyone's arrival
WHAT: Information sharing and political stuff
WARNINGS: NONE
[CLOSED: NON-LOST LIGHTERS: NO TARN ALLOWED]
Optimus had asked word to be spread about a gathering. It'd taken some time (some of them had gotten injured along the way), but word had gotten out. With a new, yet destroyed Cybertron, Optimus had wanted to set the record straight with quite a few things. One, that they were not here to continue the war. The planet's landscape was proof enough that the environment had clearly seen its fill of that. Two, to fill in others who had not otherwise caught up with what was going on back home, as well as any people not from that universe. And three, how leadership should be distributed.
Topics covered
-Finding out just who is and isn't accounted for
-The Megatron situation
-Filling in on what's been going on for those not caught up
-Leadership and how it's going to be treated, who's going to follow who's lead.
The rest is just mingling, catching up on some old friends who may have died or worse. Feel free to use this as a moment to make new friends as well, or potential new not-so friends.
Who knows!
[LATER: OPEN TO ALL]
After the meeting had taken place, Optimus had decided to get a little 'fresh air'. Why yes, he knows he doesn't breathe. But with everything now as situated as possible, he needed to consider some of his personal thoughts. Things that couldn't be brought up there. Many things had come back from the dead (quite literally in some aspects) on his arrival here, and dealing with those wounds opening was not something he'd originally thought he'd face so soon. Bumblebee...Shockwave...Roller...
Was the universe teasing him on this? He'd miraculously gotten Ironhide back, it wasn't completely beyond all reason. But it'd reminded him just how fragile everything was in his hold. If he believed in it, he'd call himself cursed.
No...it'd been a series of circumstances. Series of many things that went wrong. Things not even he could have prevented if he wanted to. And sometimes...
He didn't know which one was worse.
[EVEN LATER: CLOSED: TO SENTINEL PRIME]
This had been long overdue. Optimus had met Sentinel Prime the day they'd all arrived, and while their conversation had been anything but pleasant, there was still unfinished business to attend to. Granted, before he could, Megatron had gotten ahold of the Prime before him, finishing what he'd somewhat started. Sentinel himself was...alive, at least. In extreme medical care, but fine. All Optimus could do was wait until he was conscious again.
Before he'd have a chat.
He walks in, giving his regards to whichever medic was on duty at the time before glancing around, looking for the ex-Prime. Thankfully, he wasn't too hard to spot. A large gold and red monstrosity was very hard to miss. The green thumb of Cybertronians, dripping with pretentiousness. There's a brisk walk over to his bed, eyes as hard as when they'd met for the first time.
"You're awake."
Nice observation, Optimus.
"I was beginning to think you'd become a real sleeping beauty."
The sarcasm, there's oh so much.

It WAS a lot of information, after all.
"You are aware of our race?"
That was always a good place to start.
no subject
Permission to ask about anything! That's so exciting and he seriously doesn't know where to start.
Thankfully, Optimus starts with a question, and he answers with a nod. "Yes, you exist. You are alien robots. From Cybertron."
It doesn't matter that they're on Cybertron right now. As far as Spy Shot is concerned, aliens are anybody not from Earth.
no subject
Much easier to relate to.
"We are. This is our home, and yet, it is not specifically my home. Different dimension."
no subject
Did his NBEs come from Cybertron? Could this be their home? He really had no way of knowing. He regrets not having tried to go with the yellow NBE when it took the Cube and NBE-1 woke up. Then he could have learned more.
Of course, he also wouldn't have met Vers, and he doesn't regret that.
no subject
Because with its unfamiliarity with the bot, either way it was a whole new world to explore.
"Are you like us, living mechanical beings? Or are you..."
He doesn't want to say manufactured, but there is no real proper way to say it.... "--otherwise."
no subject
He has to pause and think about Optimus's next question, and after consideration of all the facts, all he can give is a little shrug. "I think I am alive? I was a camera, but then I was a camera and also a robot because of-" Hm. Words hardly do justice to the Cube. So Spy Shot turns around, presenting the small screen in his back to Optimus, and shows him a picture of it. "-Because of this."
DANGIT THATS WHAT I GET FOR TAGGING ON MY PHONE
"And this...gave you life?"
His eyes flick to the camera, slighting up a shade. "Then it's fortunate that you had an encounter with it."
That is to say, he's glad you're here to tell him this, despite just meeting you.
Phone Tags: both a blessing and a curse :')
In fact, he's the only bit of transformed human technology he's aware of that has that honour. Sector Seven was very thorough about executing all the people they created.
no subject
"...Were there more of you?"
More of you that...perchance DID NOT MAKE IT? Optimus's eyes are wide, and although his voice didn't raise, there's a slight hint of concern there.
no subject
He quickly flips back around and begins to show off a rather extensive and morbid montage of various pieces of human technology being brought to life inside a box, only to be electrocuted or shot when they escaped.
He'd spent a lot of time watching the lives and deaths of the others like him. Even though he didn't help them - couldn't, really, if he wanted to stay alive himself - it seemed important to remember that they existed, even if only for a short time.
