Red Alert/G1 Animated Transformers [DEEP BREATH] Okay! Let's try this! x__x

[panicbutton_05]

What was this world? Seriously! What in the pit was this CRAZY slagging world he suddenly found himself in? And with absolutely zero knowledge of how he even GOT here in the FIRST PLACE! Had he been kidnapped? Tossed through a malfunctioning space bridge? Was he dreaming? What?!

Red Alert groaned, raising both hands to clutch at his head, feeling a processor-ache coming on. That, or a full-blown panic attack. Or both. Yes. Both was definitely possible.

"I'm doing no good standing around here... I'm a target, out in the open like this" he muttered lowly to himself. He looked around at his surroundings, frowning. Everything seemed to be scaled to fit humans, though it looked like there were some Cybertronian buildings off in the distance. Very weird. He transformed into his vehicle mode, sitting on his tires nervously. Where was he supposed to get information about where he was? His communicator was buzzing with signals from the natives, but he didn't dare respond to any of them. He didn't know if he could trust any of them, after all! They could be his kidnappers for all he knew. He could monitor these transmissions, though. Perhaps someone would eventually say something relevant to his needs?

([OOC/ETA:] If you don't want to do an 'intro' scene with the character, feel free to come up with a scenario as if Red's been in the city a little while and is a little more familiar with things. :) )

/SCREAM

[deusrexmachina]

((OOC: I think I'd like to skip the intro scene stuff and work off a bit of assumed CR if that's okay, like Red's been around a little while? After all, if you bring him into game, we'll have plenty of time to do intro stuff then! Just poke me over plurk if there's anything you'd like me to change here.))


It was 8am and Rex was already out and about, having showered, scarfed down his breakfast (after a game of dueling forks at the table with Hiro for the last waffle) and gotten warmed up with a quick roof run over a few blocks. Patrol across the Northern District was next on the list, but the EVO was getting tired of running solo every day. He needed something new, something different. Maybe even someone to talk at and bother a bit while they checked up and down the alleys and streets.

Someone like a Cybertronian. It'd be cool to literally have a ride along partner that was actually the vehicle itself, so to speak. But who to call...?

That new guy. Red Alert. What about him? He was always on about security protocols and taking precautions and blah blah blah all that stuff that Rex sometimes tuned out because it got boring after a while. But Red seemed like a nice enough guy from what the Ashura knew and he hadn't been in Nautilus all that long. A run around the Northern District might do him some good. Granted, Rex could be a terrible tease and hadn't exactly shied away from giving the Autobot a little grief here and there about how he needed to settle down and chill, but it was all in good fun. They could let bygones be bygones and get some work done together, right?

Standing up on a building rooftop, Rex pulled his phone out, checked the network for the correct ID and dialed up the red and white Autobot.

"Hey, Red. Are you out of recharge already, amigo? I'm looking for a patrol partner for the morning and you're first on my list of nominees!"

... I take it you approve? ^_^;;

[panicbutton_05]

[ooc: It all sounds good to me! :D Bear with me, it's been a while since I've played Red at ALL, so I'm probably quite rusty. ^_^;;]

Red Alert was definitely awake by this time. Did the mech even sleep? Doubtful, honestly. He had spent the first couple of hours going back over the network logs, marking down and cataloging anything that caught his attention (which was quite a fair bit). He still felt quite frazzled, despite having been here for a few weeks, now. This city was a security nightmare! Cameras turning on by the whim of the city, teleporting making walls and doors pointless... There HAD to be a way to prevent some of these breaches of privacy, though, right?

He straightened up a little as he was suddenly commed by Rex. "Oh bother... what is he going to bug me about now?" he muttered to himself, briefly. Rex seemed like a decent enough guy, cheerful friendly like Spike was. He just seemed to have this... inclination to bother him, tease him, like other certain mechs back home that-shall-remain-nameless liked to do. He WAS also an Ashura, though... and wasn't that supposed to be some sort of high-ranking authority here, or something? The question was Rex being sincere, or was this an excuse to get close to him to pull a prank of sorts?

He could stew over that question forever, and not get an answer, without confronting the youth directly. If the offer to go on patrol was sincere, there was no reason to turn it down. Patrolling the districts was a very good idea, and something he had considered doing himself. And since he didn't really know the city yet, Red Alert had to admit that a guide WOULD be helpful. It was just any possibly ulterior motives that made him wary. Red Alert activated his communicator, addressing Rex.

"I wasn't aware there were any official patrols. Is this something you do regularly?" A brief pause. "What made me top your list?"

Sorry for not being sorry~

[im_wavin]

There is a certain Decepticon cat, who just so happens to be in the area that Red Alert is at. At first Ravage is a bit wary at seeing the Autobot symbol, but then realizes that it's red, like his own Decepticon symbol! Red means good guy, right?

So Ravage cheerfully approaches the bot and waves. What can go wrong?

"Hai! I'm Ravage!"

Never be sorry! :D

[panicbutton_05]

What can go wrong? Oh... famous last words, Ravage.

Red Alert jumps at the voice and spins around to see who had addressed him. He attempted to draw his gun as he spun about, but - with no small amount of panic - realized he couldn't ACCESS his subspace! His engine kicked into a higher gear as he slipped more into panic mode at that, but he managed to force it down. There was no way he'd let an enemy realize he couldn't draw his gun, after all!

Bracing himself defensively, he registered the body type first... recognizing it as Ravage, and noting the Decepticon symbol. Everything else was wrong, and Red Alert could only pause and blink in confusion as he attempted to process just WHAT he was looking at. One very cheerful, WHITE Ravage that was SPEAKING to him?!

"....What insanity is this?" he muttered, sensor horns sparking blue a little in his confusion.

"You are most certainly not Ravage," he countered a second later, guardedly. "What sort of trap are you trying to lure me into?"

Steven Universe from the series of the same name

[meaniezucchini]

[So, it seems he suddenly landed in a place like he's never been before. Funnily enough, it's not the first time it's happened. Such is life, and he rolls with it.]

Am I in mom's room again?

[crackpotcrocker]

[Denzel is dashing along, rather fast when his eyes spot something or someone rather wearing - pink. Crocker creates indistinguishable and simply says] TURNER!?

[Afterwards, crashes into a tree] Ow... [Look at the little blue stars circling around his head]

[meaniezucchini]

[Oh, no. That looks painful. He may not have his healing powers back, but he still can help! Steven runs toward the man and tries to assert the damage by looking at him from every angle possible]

Mister? Are you all right?

Re: Steven Universe from the series of the same name

[connie_maheswaran]

[Oh. Oh WOW. He's back]!!

Steven! Hi! I can't believe you came back!

Are...you ok?

[meaniezucchini]

Connie! Connie! [He runs toward her, arms spread high. Steven is happy to see a familiar face, specially if it's Connie.]

Yes, I'm good!

[But then he stops and looks around] ...wait. Where are we? I don't remember having been here before.

Oh gosh

[wayward_wanderer]

What is this small person? They do not seem to be like them, but they are a person. And they have a Symbol although it is not like one they have seen before. They run around him curiously, scarf trailing before them. It was making noises but no Symbol appeared or glowed as they spoke. How strange. But it seemed like they were lost too.

The Wanderer stopped in front of them and called, to see if they could call back or make more strange sounds.

<333

[meaniezucchini]

Steven notices the strange figure and, of course, with him being him, the first thing to cross his mind is to get closer and introduce himself. An stranger is just a friend waiting to happen, right?

"Hello!" Steven says, waving his hand with enthusiasm. "I'm Steven! Do you know where we are?"

Lion-O | That one series. With the cats. And thunder.

[bipolar_king]

1.

[The screen comes on to show a pair of bright blue eyes with narrow pupils. They blink at few times as they stare down at the camera. The view pulls back and a full face can be seen. Then the camera is turned this way and that, showing trees and a clouds overhead.]

Is this what I think it is? It can't be.

[The camera turns again to face Lion-O.] This is just my luck. It's probably another test. Throw me in some forest with unknown technology and see how I do. Haven't I been through enough? [He sighs before he looks more closely at the camera again.]

Then again...maybe this won't be so bad. I wonder...what does this button-

[The feed is cut short.]



2.

After playing with the piece of technology he found, Lion-O decided it was time to get moving. Or rather, the sound of thunder in the distance convinced him to stop poking it and find shelter. He moved through the trees, hoping he could find a hollowed out one, or reach a part of the forest thick enough that the leaves would provide shelter. It would take too long to make one out of branches and leaves. He had no robe and he didn't see any vines around.

All he had on him was the strange piece of tech on his belt, the gauntlet, and the Sword of Omens. He reached to his side to feel the familiar weight. It was a comfort to have in this place. Wherever this place was. Could the others be here as well, or was it just him? Lion-O shook his head. He needed to keep his priorities straight.

"Shelter first. Then when the storm passes, I can start looking for my friends."

2.

[ailuruslucidity]

"The Welcome House would be the best place to find shelter. Though your friends most likely are not here."

The voice, quite disconcertingly, came from the trees above. At first, the young Lord of the Thundercats might find it a little difficult to pick out where the voice came from, since her fur color had been designed to blend into the trees from below. A moment later, however, she rendered the point moot as she ducked out from one of the branches, staring upside down at the new arrival.

"And you need not worry about the storm. Most of them are quite harmless, though it is entirely possible it could get messy if it decides to rain food again."

[bipolar_king]

Lion-O stopped in his tracks when he heard the voice. It didn't sound threatening, at least. The problem was these sort of things were never as they seemed. He flexed his fingers and moved his hand closer to his gauntlet. If he had to, he'd go for the sword. Blue eyes scanned the trees around him rather than looking up.

When she spoke again, he found her upside down from one of the trees. It was like something Wilycat or Kit would do. He blinked a few times before he raised an eyebrow.

"Rain...food? That's impossible. Where am I? How did I end up here?"

2

[sirdorkimus]

With a thunderstorm seemingly on the way while he was on patrol duty, Optimus Prime took the task of looking for people who needed to go anywhere under a roof before things got too bad. Thus, he walked through the trees, just looking around.

And making a lot of noise, because a robot 17 feet tall is a lot of metal stepping on the ground.

"Hello? Is anyone there?"

[bipolar_king]

Lion-O heard the loud footsteps Optimus was making long before he saw him. He slid his hand into the gauntlet and ran through the trees. The claws launched from the gauntlet and stuck into a tree. The cables attached to them pulled and lifted him up into the tree. He drew the Sword of Omens and pressed his back against the trunk of the tree.

He peaked out from his hiding place when he heard the voice. Lion-O had never seen a piece of technology like that before. Was that some sort of new mech the lizards had? He swallowed and gripped his sword tighter. Like he was going to call back to the giant machine. He took off across the thick branch and leaped from one tree to another. If he could get some distance, maybe he could lose the mech deeper in the forest.

'The Wanderer' / Journey - Chirp!

[wayward_wanderer]

Option A: Video/Text

[ A face appears on the monitor, blinking at it in confusion. They're all black, shrouded in a red hood with a yellow band around their head like a circlet. Their almond shaped eyes softly glow. When they speak, they don't actually 'say' anything; their voice comes out as a series of soft calls, more like notes of music than speech. Thankfully, there's a translation provided ]

I do not know where I am. Or what this device is. It told me to speak to it? But it does not have a Symbol, so it is not alive?

Option B: Action

A figure, cloaked in a beautiful red cloth decorated in yellow, is running around completely lost. from time to time they call out a harmonic note, causing a symbol to glow over their chest and appear above them. A long, ornate scarf trails behind them. Where was another? It was rare to never see another Wanderer but they could not find one, and they had no view of the Mountian...

Option B

[demisheep]

She certainly wasn't a wanderer..per say, in the fact that she stayed in Nautilus, but Talitha did have a habit of wandering the city. On that particular day she happened to be floating nearby and was immediately drawn to the sound. It was such a lovely sound!

Once she reached a clearing and saw the newcomer, Talitha prodded for information. "Excuse me!" She began. "Do you hear that noise?"

[wayward_wanderer]

A sound? All they had heard was themselves. They shook their head. But oh, this was someone! Their voice was so strange. Full of little sounds rather than one clear call, yet somehow they understood.

They chirped once, straightening out their cloak. It might remind some of how a bird ruffles over their feathers are preening. Their meaning somehow came across the language barrier.

{I heard nothing.}

[staaaaay_fresh]

[ The feed comes on to the glorious sight of a cute, totally fresh inkling teenager. (She's sporting black ink today, as per her usual.) She's looking particularly stylish today, and appropriately enough she's ended up in the Eastern district, right near the beach, although she's doing her best to stay away from the water. ]

¿buıɥʇǝɯos ɹo ǝuoɥd ɟo puıʞ ǝɯos ¿sıɥʇ s,ʇɐɥʍ 'ɥooo

[ Also, the feed seems to be upside-down. ]

[ Someone might wanna lend Callie a hand, here. ]

[hedgepin]

[ And who better to help out one showbiz gal than another another entertainment personality? Breezie calmly waits until this girl finishes her questions and makes a 'tsk' noise.

She swivels her finger in the air. ]

Be a dear and turn the camera right-side up.

[staaaaay_fresh]

[ ...

...

...

Oh.

Whoops.

Callie promptly turns her device right-side up. ]

Whoops! Sorry about that!

[ But on the bright side, a person! Not someone Callie recognizes, and certainly not an inkling...maybe it's someone visiting from out-of-town. But they seem friendly enough! Maybe she can get some directions! ]

Heeey, would you happen to know which way Inkopolis this is? I think I might've gotten separated from my entourage and I really need to head back.

[ Let's be real, here. The only reason Callie's getting away with asking for directions like this is because Marie isn't here to keep her in check. And while Marie not being around is a bit of a warning sign, Callie is very much a glass-half-full squid, so she's fairly certain Marie must be nearby...right? ]

Jailbot | Superjail!

[imcominhome]

[HI NAUTILUS. Apparently the Call heard you guys like robots so here have another one of these assholes running around.

However, it might not really be as... vocal, as you might be used to. In fact, he's just kind of hovering around the area somewhere in the north, looking really, really confused. Which isn't really a good Jailbot to be around, but hey, at least it's not a pissed off Jailbot.

Also have some confused beep-boop-bops on occasion.

:C Where is Superjail. Where is dad.]

oh noes WHO ARE YOU

[woocas]

...Woah! When did we get another robo dude?

[Yeah guess who turned a corner and almost ran right into you Jailbot.]
