[video]

[the camera blinks on, and jiggles for a big as its set on the roof of a one-story house - sky, wires, and a tree flash past the lens before settling on the HUGE blue face of Optimus Prime. His eyes glow blue as he blinks before he stands up and backs away, bringing the rest of his head and chassis into view. He's crouching so that he's eye level with the camera.]

Right. So, ah. [makes a noise that sounds like throat-clearing]

There have been a lot of posts lately indicating fear, or, er, aggression towards the, er, giant robots that have suddenly appeared in The City. I, um, just wanted to clarify some, ah, concerns and inform the people of the city, specifically the users of this network, what you should know about us, er Cybertronians.

First of all, there is a group of piloted fighter mechs that are NOT Cybertronian. I would recommend asking their pilots about them.

Secondly, none of us are what some people refer to as "Sentinels." From what I understand, these machines are non-sentient robots designed to hunt down and kill mutants. That is not, and never has been, the function of any Cybertronian, although there may be some who have no qualms about harming humans.

Thirdly, those of us bearing this symbol (and here Optimus points to the red face on his shoulder) are known as Autobots. Autobots are programmed to protect life, and have upheld this function while in the city, even as humans ourselves. My team is under command to continue doing so, and to stop the other faction of our kind, The Decepticons. [ there's a brief flicker, and the video switches to this before going back to Optimus.]

As their leader, Starscream, has already damaged several jets, our current goal is to bring him down, at whatever cost. I personally appreciate all help that has been offered so far.

I hope this has answered some questions about the sudden appearance of giant robots, and I ask you to please remain calm. We Autobots mean you no harm, and we're doing everything in our power to prevent the 'Cons from harming anyone.

If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask.

What the slag language is the audio?

Oh, I know. Those human bodies are pathetic, really.

Yeah, I have to admit, even being human, that they're not great. You'd think in a place like this, it wouldn't matter if you're walking around as a human or not.

Ohh, but it does matter. You saw what I'm capable of. They turn us human because they fear our power.

And at least you have some sense, for a human.

There's something I've experienced. Doesn't surprise me that the tin can would be afraid of the people he's bringing here. I wouldn't have brought us here in the first place, in that case.

I have respect for beings obviously more powerful than myself.

Then you are wise, human.

What is your name? And your talents, such as they are?

I've had experience.

Kyosuke Kiryu. What I can do actually...sounds pretty silly when I explain it.

I am Air Commander Starscream, and as soon as I confirm Megatron's disappearance I will be Emperor of Destruction Starscream, supreme commander of the Decepticon forces.

Try me.

Pleasure to meet you.

Where I'm from, we have a card game called Duel Monsters. Some cards have monsters on them that you do battle with, and some have magic effects or traps for your opponents. I can bring the monsters and effects to life.

Well, what sorts of monsters and effects are we talking about.

I said it would sound silly.

My ace monster is a dragon. I have a couple warrior-like monsters, a cat, and dwarf...

I haven't tested most of my magic cards yet, but one of them forms a giant cage around the opponent, and one would make a giant hole in the street.

Well, that's rather useful, actually...

So how would you like to be counted as an ally of the Decepticons? An honorary member...?

I'd be honored. Especially if it means getting to mess with this Autobot guy. I'm not a fan of police. Except the guy I live with.

Excellent.
