// Understood, Arcee. A positional reference of the sun would assist me in estimating your arrival time, please. //

//Kup: contacted.//
He's being helpful and reporting in stuff! He could also be totally screwing over any secrecy. No wonder he spends most of the cartoon series 'off on missions in deep space'.

Kup had just been about to announce himself!
The moment he's certain he can keep the chuckle out of his transmitted voice, he speaks up. //Uhm, yeah, thanks Omega. Perceptor? Arcee? I've spotted Omega Supreme; I should be meeting up with you guys shortly.// The elder just assumes everyone is together in one group. //I've got another Autobot with me, little guy calling himself 'Holi.' Things weren't making much sense with him, but Omega Supreme said something about nonlinear time? Any of you guys got anymore details?//

Continuing their earlier chat, Omega Supreme confirms, //Long Haul: Autobot. Personally verified. Group: separated.//

Kup generally appears to have a fairly laid back, relaxed nature, occasional tirades against turbo-revvin' young punks aside. However, he is also head of the security of an entire planet, a position that someone does not gain unless they have at least somewhat of a suspicious mind.
Still, Kup not only knows something of the history between Omega Supreme and the Constructicons, he's just old enough to be slightly unnerved that Omega Supreme would have thought himself capable of deprogramming the builders on his own, anyway. Therefore, if Omega Supreme is convinced of Long Haul's Autobot-hood, it's good enough for Kup.
//Uhm, yeah. Thanks, Omega.//

// Kup! Can you supply your most recent time stamp, please? Time is, indeed, quite non-linear in regards to when each of us were removed from our previous locations spacially and temporally. Additionally, we appear to have been removed from multiple realities as well. Arcee and I currently travel with a separate party than Omega Supreme. If you are to rendezvous with Omega Supreme, I will leave it to Emirate Xaaron to explain our current understanding of events and plan of action. //
It's good to hear from another familiar mech, and that Kup had been calling for Perceptor and Arcee, it increases the likelihood that this Kup is, indeed, the Kup he and Arcee share a reality with.

//All right, thanks. That clears up some of the confusion we've been having here. Looks like Holi here is from a different reality from mine.// He does not say 'ours,' because the possibility that he's not from the same reality as the Perceptor he's speaking has occurred to him.
Kup then provides his time stamp, one that puts him near the end of the year 2006, not very long after Perceptor's time at all, but before Omega Supreme's. One that places him, in fact, right during the worst of the Hate Plague, not that Perceptor would know this. //Holi'll have to provide his time stamp on his own. I'll check to see if he has this frequency.//

Of course he has this frequency. He's an Autobot, after all!
//My timestamp….// He pauses to think. Gaihawk had only a day or so past made his escape from the prison on Micro's moon. Mid-2025 by the human calendar, then, and that's exactly what he transmits.

// Thank you, Kup. That places you somewhat between the times that Arcee and I had been removed from, and when Omega Supreme had been similarly removed. Thank you Holi. If you are from one of our realities, your timestamp would place you in our future. Are your fuel situations adequate? //

// I doubt it, Perceptor, unless Rodimus is planning on changing his name to 'Rodimus Convoy' somewhere down the road. As for fuel, I'm sitting at around 46 percent, I'm afraid. It's been a pretty hectic few days for me; coming here's been a chance to relax a bit! //

// Who's R- oh, yeah. Different home times. Arcee, Rodimus Prime is the Chosen One. He became leader of the Autobots after Optimus Prime. Used the Matrix to take out Unicron. // Kup pauses, then goes on, his voice sounding faintly amused this time. // But seeing how that's not really pressing or relevant at the moment, I'll save the rest til I can make a proper story of it. // The elder sounds like he's thinking of a really funny joke that he can't wait to share.

//Unicron? Rodimus <i>Prime</i>? Who's Unicron... and what happened to Ultra Magnus? You've got a lot of explaining to do, Kup!//

//I sure do!// Kup replies cheerfully. //But I'm not going to until I can see the expression on your face when I tell you, so you might as well just settle down and concentrate on whatever they've got you doing right now.//
Seeing the other person's reaction to the story is a large part of the fun of story telling! Kup's not missing out on that!

There is a brief pause that might indcate Arcee has temporarily turned off her communicator in order to say a few choice words about Kup. None of which ought to be coming out of the mouth of a lady.
//All right, Kup. Hope to see you soon then.//
