[ 001 - Hologram] What's big, pink and smells like....strawberries?
[There's apparently a lot of giant robots around here. This one's looking a little out-of-sorts though, and it's pretty clear why, when he holds up--or attempts to--a very large wiggly semi-transparent pink cube. Give him a break okay: it's quite slippery, given its gelatinous state.]
Uh. Does anyone...want this? I bought it in the marketplace. I thought it was, ya know, something I could eat. Apparently it's for organics though. [Don't ask how Drift knows this. A medical diagnostic might be on his to-do list though.] And apparently non-returnable now.
[He has no idea what organics would do with such a large quantity of 'strawberry jello' or why it has any right masquerading in the form of an energon cube, but oh well, lesson learned. Drift sets it down before it nearly slips from his hot little fingers, (nevermind the squelching noise please) and pulls out an energon ration pouch, the pink liquid inside sloshing around as he holds it up.]
I am looking for more of this though. It's our fuel, and trust me when I say it's not good for organics. If you see any though, let me know. I can pay you for it, if need be.
[Just...not a lot. What a time to be without his gold currency card. But seriously people, Drift really, really likes not staving! He's done that before and would rather not again. But you better believe he's just the type of idiot to give out what rations he brought with him to the others of his kind. Because even if he's not fond of starving, hey, positive side: he knows how to tolerate it probably better than anyone.]
So Wing, Rodimus, Megatron, anyone else... let me know what supplies you have? I have some rations, if you're in need.

( It's a natural talent of his, what can he say. But the mention of Overlord causes his smile to falter and eventually fall. )
Yeah, only everyone who did that isn't here. So-- ( Possibly the most obvious sign of the fact that things have happened is the absence of any mention of his role in getting Overlord taken care of. He falls silent, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly before deciding that maybe moving on is the best tactic here. ) Anyway. We'll figure out something if any of them do show up. I mean, showing Megatron to them might be our best bet to getting out of that one alive. Watch them have a crisis of faith while we spring a trap.
hologram
[And well. Everyone else who was, uh, actually there. *sigh*]
Not saying we'd do the same thing. My point is we can get pretty creative with the resources at hand. [No face falling allowed Rodimus, if Drift can keep his in shape while talking about the DJD, so can you.] I think there will be more than a 'showing' of Megatron happening there. If I know him, that's some unfinished business that he'll want to handle personally.
