Needlenose gives Spinister an uncertain look. "I don't... thiiiiiiiiiiiiink we're all displaced from mass conservation. If we were, shouldn't there be folks here who haven't shown? And not all of these realities seem to think you need to do that mass thing for time travel. And then there's that Unicron business..." Needlenose trails off, and despite his own arguments, makes a mental note of it. That Misfire is pulled from the middle of the event that tore his reality in two and apparently uprooted Cybertronian destiny is interesting, to say the very least.
"Well, besides the aim thing, what can you do, huh? You say you did well enough about everything else, so... what makes up everything else, huh?"

The Chamberlain, His Incomparable Immensity, Emperor Misfire. The Accidental Butcher of Anyone He Wasn't Aiming At

Misfire frowns, "If that was the case, wouldn't all of us be here, not just me? I mean, Aimless is right; the Prime mentioned something about a side realm of some sort. But...why would I get shunted off somewhere different?"
But Needlenose is asking more questions. So, back to task. "I'm an interceptor. I'm very quick, very agile, and I'd wager I could even give a Seeker a workout in the air. And that's not an idle boast. Aerobatics is me specialty. I'm agile enough in this form as well." Another wry smile, "Perhaps I shouldn't have spent so many points on my Dodge skill, and saved a few more for Marksmanship." Needlenose, at least, might get the joke. Spinister, maybe not so much.
"I'm not a leader, but I can head up a squad or second it if I have to. I lead out the strike to retrieve Scorponok's head, which was successful. Till that Prime showed up with a monkeywrench, anyway."
Over against the wall, Aimless nods, "One big arse monkeywrench. Anyway, my background...you guys already know that! Yeesh! So, I was a construction engineer. Worked my way up till I was an inspector/master builder. Took a few too many shortcuts, rushed things a bit too much," Pocketed too much bribe money, "and one too many buildings were...unstable. Yeah. So I signed up for this gig, thinking it was a chance to wipe the slate, fresh start, do something for my country, yadda yadda yadda. Big pile is what it turned out to be, if you ask me. After all, look at what we left behind," Aimless shakes his head, voice growing soft, "More damage than I could ever have done by passing a few faulty buildings."
OOC: move to fade out in the next couple, since we're getting to the tedious "interview" part of the scene?

Spinister nods to Needlenose. He's right. It can't simply be mass shunting, but it might be somehow involved. Or maybe the universe just hates Misfire. It could always be that.
Hairsplitter, it should be said, is not pleased with Aimless. In fact, Aimless displeases Hairsplitter on both a personal and professional basis. So Singe plucks up Hairsplitter's list of questions and starts to go through them instead, ignoring Hairsplitter's glower.
OOC: Fade out is fine by me.

Needlenose continues the questioning. After the situation with Wreckage, he's gotten a lot more thorough, though he does skim here and there with Misfire. After all, their realities are very similar.
Sunbeam and Zigzag get bored.
OOC: Aaaaaaand fade-out!
