There's a yellow car in the Nexus - a sleek-looking Camaro with black stripes. However, as vehicles are wont to do in the Nexus, this one reveals itself as a robot, its parts shifting and relocating as it shifts into a more humanoid shape.

"Oh, please!" Starscream says in that high, cold Chris Latta voice. "Wait until you've got multiple versions of your action figure, ranging from 'Masterpiece' to 'Robot Heroes', and fanart and fanfiction putting you in every imaginable--and some not so imaginable--situation; then talk to me about awesomeness!"

He studies the yellow Autobot. "You're one of those Transformers from the new timeline that just got opened to the Nexus, aren't you? Bumblebee? First version of you I've seen with decent armament. Maybe you can actually fight, too," he adds drily.

"Your universe seems to favor a lot of energy-intensive armament. I take it energy depletion isn't a problem on your Cybertron?"

[fltothebumbleb]

Augh. More suspicious people. And he can clearly make out the symbols on his wings.

"I'll have you know I do, already! There's my '75 Camaro form, and my '08 Camaro form, and this one you can record music on, and the 'Ultimate Bumblebee toy' and...!"

He pauses. Wait.

"Just who are you anyway, Decepticon?!" he asks, pointing his blaster at him. "And I'll have you know your counterparts in my world turned Cybertron into a steaming wreck!"

"Just make sure they don't rename you 'Goldbug'. That was the stupidest version yet of you," Starscream says drily.

Starscream stares at him for a moment, then says, "I suppose my counterpart in your universe looks just as weird as the rest of you, so I'll forgive your pathetic ignorance. I am Starscream, former Air Commander of the Decepticons, Second-in-Command to Megatron, and, briefly, Supreme Leader and Warlord of the Decepticons. Any more stupid questions?"

"Of course we did. In my universe, it was the stupidity of both factions not knowing when to stop that wrecked Cybertron and depleted all our energy reserves. Not that most Autobots will admit they had any part in the destruction."

"... Hey, that actually sounds pretty neat."

He recovers, and returns to looking angry at Starscream. "... I know who Starscream is. And there's no getting away from us for him."

He fired a warning shot over Starscream's head, looking insulted. "Megatron did it! There's no excusing what happened! The Allspark was meant to be a bringer of life, not fuel for a war machine! We were all living in peace till he started it!"

"I'd be more concerned about the fact that someone went to the trouble of making a toy of me, really." Says a humanoid done up like some tacky magican, mask, top hat and a cape.

"Alternate universes! I'm fictional in those!"

[cardsandmagic]

"And that doesn't bother you?"

[fltothebumbleb]

"Nope! It's fun!"

Well, it looks like another transformer from that new universe. He seems to be similar to Ironhide, anyway.

"Hi, welcome to the Nexus," she says, and she giggles. "I don't know, being an action figure isn't all it's cracked up to be. Half the time, they don't get your proportions right, and then there are all the people who don't like you that blow up your figures."

She sighs and sulks a bit. "Yeah, my own dances with fame have had their own difficulties," she says.

[fltothebumbleb]

"Well, toy engineering seems like an imprecise science! Besides, it's an honor just to be considered!"

He tilts his head. "What's your name?"

[scrapperzen]

"Imprecise science and a primarily male-targetted industry," she says. "My chest isn't HALF as big as my figures would make you believe!"

She shakes her head quickly. "My name is Silverwing. You are?"

[fltothebumbleb]

"Hey! One of my toys has that same problem!"

...! Dramatic point. "You're Ironhide's friend!"
