[ there is a long silence, then a groggy groan-slash-yawn ]

Guys? Did- did it work? I- wait. This isn't right. Ratchet-? Hello? Ow. Primus, my head. Ratchet said I might be sore, but...

[ a yelp, followed by the distinct sounds of someone falling out of bed ]

Ow. W-what's going on?! Where- what- my body--

Okay, Jolt. Let's think about this for a second. One klik I'm in the desert. On my right, Optimus. On my left... that... one mech. I never got his name. Anyway, I'm positive I did everything right, so how did I wind up here?

Frag it, I better be dreaming. Dreaming that I'm a human. In a house.

...

Forget dreaming. Maybe this is really a nightmare.

...Guys? Autobots- tell me I'm not the only one here. Please tell me I'm not the only one here.

It's not my home I'm worried about right now. I've been taken clean out of my body.

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

Out of your body? Just how is that possible? Have you been made into a spirit of some kind?

[electrowhipit]

No, no. I've got a body, but it's not mine.

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

Oh dear. Do you know whom the body belongs to?

[electrowhipit]

[ shakes his head... until he realizes she probably can't hear that ]

No. I... I'm sorry. You said that everyone's been taken away from their homes?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

I see. I'm afraid I hadn't heard of someone loosing their entire body upon coming here before.

Yes, everyone who isn't a drone has been taken from their homes and held captive here.

[electrowhipit]

Is this some kind of prison?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

In a manner of speaking. We're free to move about the town, but there is no escape from it.

[electrowhipit]

I sort of figured if there was, you'd all be gone by now anyway.

... Anything else you can tell me about this place?

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

We are all expected to live as families with strangers, and sometimes drones.

And it seems everyone once in a while strange occurrences will take place. A week or so ago very few of us were able to communicate due to speaking different languages.

[electrowhipit]

Just when you think it can't get weirder.

But, um, thanks. I'm Jolt.

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

I've found this place grows stranger by the day.

A pleasure to meet you Jolt. My name is Sophie Jenkins.

[electrowhipit]

[ deadpan ] Oh yay.

Sophie. Right. Thanks again for the info.

[eldest-hatter.livejournal.com]

Certainly. If there's anything else you need or any questions, feel free to ask me again. I can be found at 1670 Nelson Street.

[electrowhipit]

I'll keep that in mind.
