[There is a heavy clang and clatter of something massive striking the ground. There's silence for several minutes, except for the low whirr of what sounds like a computer processing. After some time, there's a groan, followed by the creak and grind of metal on metal.]

[ This not-at-all robotic, cheerful middle-aged man replies! ]

Hello.

[heavyweaponsbot]

...

[A pause.]

Hello.

[eyes_unopened]

I'm afraid I don't go by any of the names you called.

But I am here! Are you lost?

audio;

[heavyweaponsbot]

... Who is this?

I... may be. Where is this place?

audio;

[eyes_unopened]

Koumyou Sanzo. It's nice to meet you, Ironhide.

This place is... here. [ pause ]

But most places are, once you're there.

[heavyweaponsbot]

[heavyweaponsbot]

I would prefer answers than to sit here wondering.

[eyes_unopened]

Then why are you fiddling around with your gizmo? Go out and find some. [ He's amused... not mocking... just amused. ]

[heavyweaponsbot]

[eyes_unopened]

Just asking nicely isn't an option?

audio;

[heavyweaponsbot]

[An amused sort of snort]

No. Not really.

audio;

[eyes_unopened]

The things that come out of the Darkness really aren't that talkative, true...

But there are lots of people who know lots of things here. I'm sure you'll get it all figured out~

[heavyweaponsbot]

... What things? Darkness?
