Sadly Magnus' voice sounds all too similar to Optimus.
"I had just finished some training, actually." No wanting to hone his own ability, it's not like he's got some huge self-esteem issues about expectations from people, nosirree. "But if you're doing some menial work, I'm happy to help!"
After a pause, Optimus cannot help but state the obvious. "I know that there was an Optimus and an Ultra Magnus in other worlds. I've seen the pictures of, erm, 'myself'... Until you got here I didn't know how similar you were to me. Him." Blast it.

That resemblance is one of the last things Magnus wants to consider right now, still on edge from the conversation with Jetfire. Nevertheless, his tone remains even as he finally gives up on the cargo. It can't get any more secure without being locked down in a trithyllium vault and if he keeps pulling, he'll just break the straps.
"I've noticed," he says, conversational yet humourless, "that most Autobots here are surprised by how much I look like this or that Optimus Prime. My guess is my reality is the only one where it's true." Lacking anything to give him an excuse not to actually face Optimus, he settles for crossing his arms after a one-shouldered shrug. "But I'm sure someone who recognises me – other than Mirage – will turn up at some point."

"It will happen. I was one of two from my world w hen I first got here. I was one of two from my world--the second one was someone I had not even met yet who accused me of murdering her brothers, which I hadn't done." Optimus sighs. Poor, angry Bambi.
"But since then, I've met more from my world. People from my past, people from my future. More who tell me that will meet them, even though I haven't yet. More will come."
Optimus tilts his head at the secured load. "Is there anything else you're doing? I am more than happy to help."

Ultra Magnus doesn't mention the other person from his reality. That one isn't worth the energy.
"Not particularly," he answers, leaving all the talk of who might or might not show up with a slight shake of his head. "Just waiting on the next load." Unless Optimus wants to bring in some more workers to keep Magnus's mind off him. That might help.
