There's a First Time For Everything

[track_joker]

Ransack can be found huddled outside the Decepticon Medbay, half-hidden behind some crates, bins, and other things that are typically found outside industrial looking buildings. He doesn't know exactly where he is, but he doesn't particularly care either; he's in the urbanized section of Nexusville, he's mostly out of sight, and he feels safe

*Hears someone monologuing in a thick accent and comes to investigate.*

Who's there?

*He can see him reasonably well, once he gets close enough, but it's not a mech he recognizes at all.*

[track_joker]

*yelping, Ransack's optics go wide and he pushes himself quickly to his feet, one hand braced against the wall*

N-no one, I was just leavin', I swear!

*He looks the mech over. Small, not a form he's familiar with. No faction symbol whatsoever--strange. But he's not an Autobot, so there's no need to run him off just yet.*

No need. *He's going more for 'friendly' than 'I will shoot you if you leave' although the latter implication is certainly present.*

I am Cyclonus. I am in charge of this place. *He gestures at the building*

What is your designation and place of origin?

[track_joker]

*the friendly tone does nothing for Ransack's fears, but he doesn't bolt. Instead, he presses back against the wall, both hands pressed against it as if to hold him up*

'M Ransack. From Velocitron.

*cringes and looks up at Megatron, chewing on his lip and doing his best to look earnest* I dunna what ta tell ya, my Lord. Last Megatron I worked fer liked ta see me on my knees, cowerin' 'n beggin' fer mercy. If dat's wha'chu want from me, I'll do it. You want me ta stand tall 'n proud, I cin do dat too. Da truth o' it is, I ain't really got a place I belong, in dis world or da one I came from. When Cyclonus offered me a place here, unda' yer command... well... *looks down, shrugging one shoulder*

I just want a place to feel like I belong - a reason ta be proud o' myself. 'N if followin' you will do dat fer me, den I'd follow ya ta da ends o' da world 'n back.

*He's going have to let Ransack handle this one for himself for the time being; he doesn't exactly have any stories to tell of Ransack's worthiness for Decepticon membership.*

*He was there and he was unclaimed; he was willing to follow and seemed utterly unsuited to being an Autobot--was that not enough when they were so short on followers?*

[track_joker]

*hesitates a moment, then cycles air through his vents and nods*

I will do what I cin fer da cause, my lord, 'n I will accept all consequences fer my failures. I lay all dat I am at'cher feet.
