Arcee manages to get down on her own, executing a landing that, while it might not win her any medals in the Galactic Olympics, was still a fairly impressive piece of agility.
"I'd go with the first. He didn't exactly strike me as bright."

Emirate Xaaron stoops down and pries up a manhole lid. He asks, "Arcee, I don't suppose you could shine your headlights down there? Might as well look down there to make sure he didn't drop something into the sewers."
He really has no idea what he's asking, the poor man. Emirate Xaaron is just thinking that he's lived four million years of his life underground, and it might as well be checked.

Arcee's clearly spent too much time around Carly, because the first place her thoughts go is into the subtext. She practically has to bite off a laugh in order to maintain her composure.
"No... *heh*... no problem, Emirate," she says, before transforming. Properly angled, she activates her headlights and directs the beams into the sewer.

Emirate Xaaron fails to see the humour, alas. He just briefly shoots an odd expression at Arcee, as if to ask, 'What's so funny?'
He stays on task, however. Emirate Xaaron kneels down and peers down into the sewer. He comes up with a rather disgusted look on his face, nose crinkled. "Thank you, Arcee. Just a fetid mess down there, no bombs. These pipes aren't circulating. Bet the pumps are broken."

Arcee's not sure Xaaron possesses the background knowledge to understand. Besides, it would probably be like trying to explain rock music to Kup.
"Probably. I wouldn't want to go down there. I spent enough time crawling through sewers."

Emirate Xaaron nods and says, "I spent four million years of my life underground, and just before I pulled here, I was running through sewers, trying to get away from Galvatron." He pauses. "You know who Galvatron is, right?"
He pauses to look through a tree. Just a strange structure of twigs up here.

She transforms, then nods. "Kup mentioned him. From just after when I was pulled. Some kind of suped-up, psycho version of Megatron."

Emirate Xaaron pauses before nodding. "You could describe him that way. I am uncertain how exactly he knew to find me... and my men." He sounds just a tad sorrowful there. They were good men, and he would have fought – and died – at their side if he could have. "We were hidden, you see. But find us he did, and I was forced to run."
OOC: Fine with skittering off to other threads and calling this done, unless you'd like something else to happen.

"I'm sorry," she says, and means it. She's not the biggest fan of these other-world Autobots (well, of Xaaron and Nightbeat, mostly), but she knows tragedy when she hears it.
((OOC good with me.))
