"What are you doing?" "Scannin..."
Who: Shockwave's Drones & You! (and possibly him in person)
What: A swarm of drones begins to investigate what they can of the Haven
Where: Everywhere!
When: Last Night
Warnings: PROBES
The relative peace in the Haven might find itself mildly disturbed this day.
From Liege's quadrant, the disturbance would appear as a small black cloud before immediately dispersing across the haven. It was a swarm, to be more precise. A swarm a small drones. Only about three feet in width and roughly oblong in shape, the robotic drones began to wander into every crevice and hole they could find themselves in.
Aside from the swarm that emerged from their point of origin, the drones never interacted with each other. Individually, each probe tirelessly and methodically scanned what they could of the Haven's temples and the wide expanses between them. Any open doors or windows may lure one of the small machines in to investigate.
But, save for their rather nosy nature, the drones appeared to be totally harmless. They could be handled (to an extent) and will only flee from detectable danger. But, unless you're particularly offended by their scanning, their stay shouldn't drag out for too long. A brief scan and a few kicked over items later, and it's gone.
But of course - what would be the fun in leaving them alone? Someone's behind the use of these drones. And the motive of said person has yet to be revealed.

Really brief, since it's like smashing one had been like a huge beacon to a whole bunch of others. Grimlock wasn't a science type by a long shot. He couldn't fathom a guess as to what these things wanted, aside from being absolutely annoying. Didn't matter they seemed non-hostile. Grimlock had plenty of hostility to make up for it.
He snarls, rising to his feet this time, and takes his sword into hand. The blades click out, one by one.
"Get out."

What, were you expecting an answer? They're drones. They're going to keep doing what they're doing: being annoying little shits.
The machines begin to gather by his legs, taking in closer scans than they did before. They usually weren't so persistant, but it seemed like whomever was driving them was taking a particular interest in this find.
One even had the audacity to start to hover near the sword to investigate.

Unfortunately, his expectations were let down.
Grimlock responds to it just like he does everything else: he tries to smash them. He kicks his foot out, aiming for the cluster that had gathered by his legs. Yes, good. Group together to be easier targets.

GOD what annoying little pieces of crap.
Of course, while they do this they're transmitting their location and status. The owner was probably already in transit.

Which might be comical, since he's so huge. He gives up trying to kick and instead leans over to swat and smack the things, much like mosquitoes. Transmissions? Hah! Definitely not on his mind. Besides, smashing them will solve all problems.
