Alright this is for everyone who had questions about one term or another that popped up in Nine Rings of Vos. As I find myself tired of constantly explaining, I've put together an evolving Glossary of Terms.

You know a fic is Epic when it needs its own dictionary... )

Looks really great, oh twin of mine!

*evil giggles* And it just struck me that some scientist in Vos is going to be wracking his processor to figure out just what the hell Cliffjumper is! Yes, his Formatter is a Gregale, but he's fragging tiny!

I predict severe processor aches until someone just gives up and dubs him a Micromachine or something XD

Thanks! Always nice to hear that from you, my most beloved brain-twin! ~♥

*snorts* Cliffjumper is not the first mini-Seeker to be formatted... er, it doesn't happen often mind, but it has happened before. XP Jumper's obviously a mini-Gregale. So there!

*giggles more*

*snickerfits* So it won't be the Vosians that have processor meltdowns caused by a mini-Seeker (although they may be shocked that he's not more like Meanstreak XD) but the Autobots. Gotcha.

I will laugh if someone crashes upon finding out. Anyone. I'll laugh really hard if it's one of the minibots.

And I'll bet any mini-Seeker is a-fraggin'-dorable... even if they hate hearing that.

Autobots are all going to go "... *crash!*" when they find out. XP

... I can do that!

They are. And they do. They really do... but they're so cute! *snuggles mini-seekers*

Is there a distinction in Cybertronian between Creator "Tor" and Genitor "Tor", whether through inflection or context or something similar to Seeker Cant?

Would a good analogy for wingkin be extended family?

The "Tor" for Creator goes T'or, while the Tor for Genitor goes 'Tor. Creator has a harder click on the 'T'.

And yes, Wingkin does pretty much equate to extended family. ^_^

Oooh, whee! Useful stuffs! And Flexy -can't- be 'Skimmer, they were sparked back in Vos so... yeah. Hum. *pokes world* Gah! Ideas. The good news(?) is that there's only two or three more parts that need to be done. Lots more that -could- be done. *babble*

This goes in the back of the binder as critical information. :)

Well done!

Would Flightless go through the Fledgling stage as well, given that they don't have the flight program protocols? I'm guessing yes since they do possess battle programming, but I want to make sure that I'm 100% on that.

...mainly because I'm wondering if CJ may have been mistaken when he assumed he was a full-grown adult when he left home and was actually in the last few orns of the fledgling stage XD

Huh, yeah. Flightless do go through the Fledgling stage. Since it's really a way of saying that they're old enough to start doing adult things like, well, interfacing and deciding what to do with their lives. Teenagers basically.

... It is entirely possible for that to be true. XD

*snickering hard* Probably a damned good thing then that he didn't hook up with Comber until they were Earth-side, or else Bullseye/Meanstreak/both Jumper's creators might have been Very Displeased.

Granted, I doubt CJ much cared by that point!

Yeeeeah... let's not mention that little factoid to the Creators, hm?

I'm pretty sure CJ will care when he's not getting some anymore because his Matter and Trix flipped a switch and went Quintesson Judge on his boyfriend. XP
