I. [Video] Origination

[the video starts with a pair of red-orange optics gazing at the comm - and then pulling back to fully reveal the helm and upper body. a dark-blue black mech with highlights of white and red, it's difficult to read his expression with a mask over the lower half of his face. when he speaks, his voice is a deep, resonating bass...and it is as cold as

[...Primus, for the tiniest of moments he was reminded of deep, smouldering optics and the scent of burning metal. This is the opposite--but the feeling is very, very much the same, and he would rather shake it off.]

...such a thing...does. Exist.

This is far, far from it.

Who...are you?

[He's almost afraid to know the answer, but, at least here, the idea of demigods showing up seems almost tame and manageable somehow.]

I found many things, Jetfire. But I can only divulge so much over mere communicators.

OMG Dark Jetfire /pets

You...wish to meet with me?

[This is worrisome. On the one hand--SCIENCE. Damn, does he want to know what was found. On the other hand--VERY SUSPICIOUS EVIL MECH. He's...been around the very suspicious evil sort, before. It almost ended badly.

On the other hand, having a full scan a bit closer would reveal a hell of a lot more, and he's confident in his ability to get away if it proved more than he could handle.]

...I'm interested.

[BRB comming Ratchet--]

Come to the dark side! We have black repaints!

[sumptushubris]

Indeed. Perhaps we could both share knowledge.

They are sexy repaints. <3 You are so tempting, sir.

[bymycalculation]

...I will compile a compendium for you.

...

And I will be interested in what knowledge you have gained, as well.

...

And your name.

Your real one.

You can science to your heart's content C:

[he tilts his head to the side, tone approving.] Very good, Jetfire. I look forwards to our meeting.

But I have already given you my true name. At least half of it...but you can deduce the rest, I am sure, based upon what I have already told you.

Without any messy bureacracy? 1/3

[bymycalculation]

It will be extremely...informative.

[And terrifying. But damn you, if he's going to be terrified of you, he at least wants the scans and data to label precisely why. Being scared of the unknown is so...illogical.]

You led all of Cybertron.

I know what you are, if not why.

[sumptushubris]

You will learn.
