44th Scream

[Audio. You can hear wind whistling at a high speed, and something that sounds like jet engines. Still, the audio filtering is pretty good - you can still hear Starscream speaking, loud and clear. This is probably a bad thing.]

Oh, frag this.

City, while I have no particular love for this planet, or this city, or, for that matter, Washington DC, at the same time I have no desire to see it destroyed.

Consider this my... ... I don't know. Something. Declaration of allegiance.

I'm flying to DC now, and yes, I'm going to help stop this; I'm going to fight against the Major and his forces. War without purpose is senseless. Pointless. A waste of resources and effort.

Hold your applause. [/SARCASM]

While I don't particularly care what the rest of you do, I ask two things: don't get in my way, and if you're on the Major's side, for Primus' sake don't show yourselves. This is an experiment in public relations - I hope that by engaging in a little heroics against something that I find mildly detrimental to my other plans (the USAF is, after all, an excellent customer for StarWave and I'd be very put out if their main headquarters was detonated) I will make myself look better to these idiot heroes, and, in turn, the rest of the Decepticons.

Oh. About that bomb...

My main power is an electromagnetic pulse ray. I can thus disable the bomb's electronic components from an extremely remote distance; basically, if I have line of sight to the bomb, I can take that out. It doesn't last forever, but if I keep a sustained burst on it...

And I am also skilled with electronics, I could probably disable the bomb.

[OOC: Juston and Tim have dibs on bomb disabling I think? Also Supes? Either way, he's just... throwing that out there. I have no plans on being the bomb disabler.]

Actually, I had no idea why you were from three million years in the future. I just assumed your people had finally figured out what a reasonable timespan was as opposed to the ridiculously short, nasty lives you usually live.

I stand corrected.

Oh. No, it was because the ship was contaminated and Lister was in stasis for three million years. Really, I'm positive I've told you this.

I have a poor memory for this sort of thing. [/WASNT LISTENING THE FIRST TIME PROBABLY]


Wait

Was this the thing that was your fault?

It wasn't my fault! It was Lister's fault. If he hadn't been put into stasis for smuggling that stupid cat aboard, I'd have had help fixing the drive plate and it never would have happened.

Oh.





So the problem was that you were too inept to fix it on your own. I see.

Having gotten a nuclear fireball in the mush, I say it couldn't happen to a nicer fellow.
