Ravage drives them out of the Plaza and up to the gate, which is being guarded by Clobber and Garboil--a deep green warmech with a single optic, and a cobalt blue condorlight, the same frametype as Laserbeak and Buzzsaw. She transforms, grabbing one boombox with each hand, and sets them down on the ground.

"At ease, you two," Ravage says. "Blaster's come up for a visit. He's not the Blaster from our universe."

Clobber relaxes visibly.

Ravage turns to Blaster. "Welcome," she says. "You're now in sovereign Destron territory, but you're welcome to spend the afternoon with us here."

They might be calling it an Embassy, but it qualifies as a good-sized base. However, there are some public buildings just outside the gate--it looks like they're building an inn or an oilhouse or something like that, and there's also a public office and a small library. Inside the gate, there are several residences surrounding the central building. There are also civilians inside the gate, including some juveniles, and a juvenile humanoid organic with purple skin. There's a scratching noise inside Soundwave's chest and he laughs. "Viridian, eject," he says, and she does, leaping down to go and join some of the other younger residents.

Soundwave turns to Blaster. "Well," he says, "if we're trying to make friends then I'd hope you wouldn't harm my cassettes, but most of them have other alt-modes now. To be quite honest, I was thinking of retiring the deck, but Viridian likes to rest in there. And Rosanna's a pop star, a singer; you'll like her. But we'll talk inside."

There is a throne room in the main hall of the main building, but beyond it, their private residence is modest, although they don't have to fetch their own energon--a bot who looks like a sanitation model brings the cubes, and a plate full of elaborate gelled energon treats.

"Thanks, Suckerpunch." Ravage grins and dismisses the other bot. "You have to try these gel pastilles, Soundwave makes them himself. He's been spoiling me for the past four million years."

Blaster thought back on that a moment. He had met someone who had...

"I think I met them, dark haired, had children with him..." He tucks that in the back of his mind for now.

"I'm sure enough time it will happen, and," He looked at Veridian, "I'm sure if she's anything like her parents, she's going to be a force to deal with when she sets her mind to it." Was that admitting he respected his counterpart? Yes, Blaster knew they were enemies, but that didn't mean he couldn't respect Soundwave, after all he had, in his world, had the ear of his faction's leader, and his respect. Though honestly he always thought Soundwave was more of Megatron's second in command anyway, and Starscream was Megatron's court jester.

Blaster heard her and nodded. "Well, I hope we can be friends, and if you get angry, I won't blame you."

I try to block out the surface thoughts Blaster retorted in thought not bothering to keep it to just SOundwave, so Viridian if she caught it could laugh at the retort.

"I don't know, we still have smaller forms than most of our teammates," Though Soundwave had a point. A handgun was smaller than a boombox.

He chuckled. "So Court Jester will stay in the list then." At least for his Starscream, though he stops as he looks at them. "You're, not kidding are you? I mean..." He shakes his head a moment.

"I'm not sure on the Decepticon side, I know that there probably were though, I mean we had a few on the Autobot side, and we always seemed to have counterparts on your side, so... I always thought there were some. Always thought there were more that didn't choose a side though, after all there were camps where there were young, I just always assumed more Femmes were in the camps caring for them. I know it's... as the humans would say old fashioned thinking."

"I'll try not to." He's silent a moment at that. "I have heard many things today that I didn't think that the Optimus Prime I know would do. I wish I could tell you. I really wish I could tell you if it is true or not." He really wished he could tell her what she needed to know.

"You know... I honestly don't envy you on that." He leaned back a little at that.

"They weren't on Cybertron." He closed his optics a moment. "I don't know about the cassettes, I just know originally, I wasn't going to be a carrier. Slag, I didn't even want to be an officer." He rubbed his arm, a nervous tick he had picked up from the humans, "Though I know that the ones I have, yeah they were students, but I'm pretty sure it was a specialized school. All I know is we heard the distress and I went with a few others, all we could risk, to get them. Cosmo, Kup, and I found it mostly destroyed." He frowned. "I just wish we had gotten there sooner, maybe we could have saved more than eight students. The ruins, Kup searched, couldn't find any other data, so at first we had thought that it was some sort of set up, but Megatron wouldn't have been that cold. At least none of us could believe they set things up to slip a plant in our ranks. At least not a child." He looked at them. "I mean he did some dirty stuff before, but I think there was an unwritten law that we all agreed not to cross."

"I'm glad you realize that Viridian."

Blaster had tensed hearing the voices as well, but for a different reason. Though he managed to remember that there was an anti-violence field. And that here, he wasn't in enemy territory.

Blaster flashed Veridian a grin at that. The version of her I know is good at finding things too, as well as people.

That bit of news had Blaster chuckle a little. "Glad to know he's okay here. HE refused to join us on Earth, always said the planet's gravity made him feel funny so didn't want to risk it."

Blaster chuckled at that. "On my world, he's always been a little strange, but mostly a recluse. Took me ages to get him to warm up to me at all, and that's just a buddy relationship."

Blaster was about to respond to Viridian when the small seeker peeked in.

"Hello Silverwing." He smiled at her. "And honest I'm harmless to young bots." This was true, he hated the idea of little bots getting hurt.

He nodded to her. "Yes. And I know in my world there aren't many femme Decepticons, but well Starscream is an idiot, the femmes on the Autobot side from my experience, usually are the ones that keep us Autobots from forgetting our goal." He smiled. "Seekers need to be small and nimble, you are usually the first scouts."

"I know that on my world, they're the enemy, but I don't think it's really hate, it's just, we've been fighting for so long. Though Soundwave here, if... Things were different back home, I think we might have been good friends."

He laughed heartedly at her bravado. "I hope you fly circles around him. Someone needs to. Maybe it will help knock his ego down some."

Silverwing giggled. "That'll be fun if it works," she said, but then her expression grew more sombre. "I hope the war is really, truly over soon. I'm having fun here. But I miss my parents on Sanctuary Station. I understand why all us kids were sent here, but we all feel like that."

She looked up at Soundwave. "But I know you're gonna kick old Galvatron's big blocky aft right into the sun!" she said, with all the trust of a child.

"When it happens I'll help hold the victory party how's that?" He nodded. "For now you're safe, I'm sure that's the biggest thing your parents are worried about. I know it's probably closer to being over for Soundwave here than it is for me." He gave a sad smile. "Though I promise, as long as I can here, I'll help keep you and the other kids safe. That is as long as you and the others here trust me." He glanced up at Soundwave to let him know that that promise wasn't only for the kids. "And I will work hard to earn that trust, I'm not asking you to trust me from the start."

"And I'm sure Soundwave could easily handle Galvatron. He's a force to recon with on my world too." Blaster would help bolster the kids' faith in their protector, since being there, he had seen how the others trusted Soundwave, and wouldn't want to frighten the kids.

Blaster chuckled at SOundwave's words. "And it's why I am determined to stay on Ravege's good side. I like my paint job." He was trying to lighten the mood a little.

"I'm still not sure what to think of that, since mine is really a moron. Though I really wonder how much of that he plays up to try to weasel to Megatron's side."

"I've met a few of them, interesting humans." Honestly he loved the jam session he had with one earlier. "It's been a while since I've DJ'd more than for a kid's party." Hey Daniel's birthday party had been a blast though! At least no one complained about the music. Grimlock destroying the cake with his tail... Well okay that may have been on Blaster, at least slightly, since he had been playing the music that had made the Dinobot dance.

"Noted, I'll be sure to ask you when the time is better, and when there are not young ones around, so we would not have to keep things clean word wise."

Blaster laughed a little at Silverwing's words. It wasn't a cruel laugh, just a small outburst. His Soundwave only knew as much as he did because of his cassettes, he had a feeling that this one was the same way to some extent, but wasn't going to say it. "He is a better judge of character than the one on my world at least."
