First Aid wrote:"I am glad to see all five Aerialbots functioning still. I will guarantee this was more programming error than any physical misalignment. As bad as this may sound, part of me is glad it was a simulation triggering this or physical harm might have happened. Part of me wants to scrap this whole crazy idea and undo what we had done to them. There has to be another answer instead of building one giant to take down another giant. If you allow me to summon Jetfire back here to answer questions we can get to the bottom of this fiasco."

Blaster wrote:>>”Magnus, Prowl, I’ve caught up with Red Alert and his meeting. Everyone in the meeting seems to be in favour of the plans. I’m attaching a copy of the minutes of this meeting. Since Prime isn’t taking charge right now, can I get you to guys to look through all this?”<<
Blaster wrote:>>”Jetfire, Magnus, we're looking to do field testing of any science projects down in Africa. There's a cool science guy here, name's Anomaly. Could you guys let him into the databases? And also, can we get field testing in Africa approved? It's pretty isolated, so it'll be good for that stuff anyway.”<<

Red Alert wrote:>>”I, I get what you mean, Jetfire, but we can’t have another incident happen, even if it is just non-physical simulations. W-we don’t want another… “Optimus” to happen. And have you had a look at the location? It’s p-perfectly fine! There’s not much wind, it’s isolated and uh, it’s going to be our primary field testing location for all future projects - the harsh environment would allow us to improve on projects more than ever. I’m also going to be letting Wheeljack and Perceptor know about this kind of stuff. With Wheeljack’s track record, that Ore-13 stuff might just blow a gigantic hole in the hull of this ship!"<<
Jetfire wrote:"I understand your concerns for doing an simulation but this time we will go in very slowly. I have disabled the physical triggers in the program so your bodies should remain motionless. Once we know the program is running smoothly, I will turn it back on. If there is any major mental discomfort, First Aid will deactivate the program."
”I just don’t want anyone else to get hurt again.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“Ironhide,” Optimus began, the red and blue Autobot placing his actuators on the grizzled mech’s shoulder plating, “it’s been too long old friend.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“I’m sorry Ultra Magnus can’t accompany both of us here, there’s a lot of things he’s managing over right now.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“You mentioned you wanted to discuss something? Is something troubling you?”
Optimus Prime wrote:“Silverbolt, I wish you and the other Aerialbots a safe recovery. I wish I could’ve stayed and caught up more with you all."
“Ah know this is bad timin’, but Ah took a few of us — myself, Pipes, and Starfire— to Earth, or that was the plan. The bounce chambed glitched or somthin’, and it sent us to Sol-4 — Mars — by accident where we had a run in with Starscream and his cronies. Ah did so without permission or tellin’ anyone we were goin’, and it nearly got Pipes killed.”
”Because of actin’ like a young punk, Ah wasn’t here to help when Megatron escaped and you needed me most. Ah failed my duty and betrayed your trust. Ah no sorry don’t begin to make up for my actions.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“You’re right.”
Optimus Prime wrote: “There’s no amount of apologizing that will rectify this.”
Optimus Prime wrote: “However, I myself have been— out of commission for longer than I wished to have been and have only just began to feel like myself again. When I first awoke, I... I directly harmed some of my closest allies, my friends.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“In a way, we’re both in the same boat here. We’ve hurt our friends and our trust in them is a bit shaken at the moment.”
Optimus Prime wrote: “We’ve made mistakes, but we aren’t going to fix anything asking for forgiveness right now. Now is the time to prove that we can get back up before we knock ourselves down.”
Optimus Prime wrote:“By the Allspark...”
Optimus Prime wrote:“I’m sorry, old friend,” the red and blue prime said beginning to move towards the door, “but I’m afraid we may need to continue this conversation on the go. I need to see Omega Supreme.”
”The more insight we can get, the better. I will wait for you to handle the rest.” Silverbolt said calmly, feeling the ship’s descent in action. The ever-so-slight rumbling of atmospheric entry caused an almost soothing sensation in his circuits. At least things were getting put into action.Jetfire wrote:"Personally I think the new Peru Autobot City would make a better choice but it might be a bit too busy down there to test whatever you all become. My impression is all of the brains will be in Africa so when things goes wrong, we will have others who can contribute their processors. It would still be nice to get an in depth look into SkyLynx and Omega Supreme at Peru though to see how they are able to control their multiple parts and processors."
