Nightbeat to Drift

[Nightbeat]

Earth M6W4D1, concurrent with Hunter to 555-Bots

//Drift, could you report to the main comm room? We've got someone on the line claiming to be a new Autobot arrival from your reality who's also been turned human.//

[Drift]

So much for sword practice. Drift's in the middle of trying to, you know, still unfreak-out about this whole human-turning thing. He's no scientist. He can't figure it out, he can't help. All he can do is...stab air until something happens.

It's possibly great practice for Zen patience, but right now, he'd like to stab Zen patience in the face.

//Inbound.// A few moments before curiosity gets the better of him. //Who?//

[Nightbeat]

//Claiming to be some sort of Headmaster Sunstreaker, but we need to make sure it's not a 'Con.// If it's really a Decepticon, you get to stab them, Drift.

[Drift]

...Sunstreaker. The last time he'd seen Sunstreaker, he was Deadlock, and they were fighting each other.

And Deadlock had won.

So. THIS SHOULD GO WELL.

//Know Sunstreaker.// That sounded...diplomatic. He hopes.

[Nightbeat]

//Do you know anything about him that would be helpful from a security standpoint?// Come on, Drift, tell Nightbeat that when you were Deadlock you gave Sunstreaker a scar in a very personal area that he never would have told anyone else about. That would make this easy. Nightbeat will be your best friend.

[Drift]

Part of Drift that was still Deadlock would love to be able to say that, just as much as it would be repulsed with having gotten that close to the egotistical Autobot.

//Used to fight in Megatron's Arena.// He gave a shrug. Which of course doesn't carry over radio. //At Sherma Bridge. // And he couldn't help it. //Called a retreat when he fought against me.//

Fifty-fifty usefulness on that last one: Sunstreaker might be so narcissistic that he'd deny that, even though it was true.

[Nightbeat]

//We'll see if we can work with it.//
