Event Log: Is It a Wonderful Life?

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for Is It A Wonderful Life? event
Where: All over the city
When: Jan 4th-8th
Warnings: None

Throughout the next few days, you may find yourself plagued by visions and dreams of back home. The dreams will be lifelike and difficult to tell apart from reality, as the world will be constructed from what you remember of your world. However, unlike usual dreams, you won't be present, and will find yourself unable to be seen or heard by those around you.

The dreams are vivid reminders of what might happen in a world without you: a world in which you disappeared when coming to Hadriel, a world which desperately needs you back for some reason or another. You may see your parents putting up missing posters, your significant other moving onto their next relationship, or even your hated villain finally taking over the world without you there to stop them.

When the vision leaves, you're back here and nothing about the city has changed. Though maybe you have a different outlook on it now...

[ Starscream just gives her this incredulous look. Not threatening people to get what he wants?! He doesn't know the concept of that and that's why he pauses for a second or two. ]

Yes, well, you humans aren't known for being very cooperative. [ So threatening them is totally what needs to be done. Still he'll lean down then and point at her with a lone claw. ]

Very well then. Tell me how you know about our kind.

[writtendestiny]

I knew a lot of you. For over a year, in the place I was before this one.

[This will do as a distraction. It's not ideal, but talking about anything other than what she just saw has to be better than thinking about it.]

You, Knock Out, Ratchet, Rewind, Drift... [She feels her throat tighten slightly as she says the last three names. It's still hard to miss them as much as she does.]

They were my friends. Well... you and Knock Out tolerated me. I think.

[traitory]

Is that so. [ He can't really see it but then again he supposed he was tolerating a lot lately. ]

And what was this other place called that you supposedly met us all in, hm?

[writtendestiny]

We called it the Box. I don't know anything more than that. [Not what planet it was on, not the country... nothing. Did any of it even matter, when places like that were being created to stop the end of the world?]

You don't remember, so why is it important?

[traitory]

Of course. Why am I not surprised? [ He sounds so skeptical as he says that with a droll tone of voice. ]

Because a random human knows about Cybertronian physiology and claims to have known me specifically. Would you not think that important if it were...reversed?

[writtendestiny]

I suppose I would, but I wouldn't imagine for a moment that threatening them would make them tell me anything.

[She lifts both eyebrows at him, and briefly purses her lips.]

You don't believe me?
