[ open ]

WHO: Arcee & anyone
WHERE: Mostly Leige's place, but she's going to be checking other places. Please note where they're at!
WHEN: Over the week
WHAT: Arcee scouting around, clinging to buildings, invading ceilings and vents, perching on roofs, and generally spying on people and being awkward.
WARNINGS: None currently?


[ 01. Leige's Temple ]

So this was Cybertron. Not her Cybertron, but a fresh, new one. Barely touched, not like their reformatted home. Arcee had listened to the drone because she had recognized for what it was, because she had little other choice but to listen if she wanted answers. But every answer just lead to more questions. Who were these Thirteen and what did this Leige want with her?

The branding she'd cut into her shoulder still hurt, but it was the other brand she picked at. If there was one thing that Cybertron had taught her, is that she had to fight to belong; it didn't come easy, and when it did, it generally it was never under favorable circumstances. She didn't trust easy, had no reason to trust Leige. Better to gain the advantage first before sticking out her neck. Times like this, she missed the simplicity of hunting Jhiaxus and the driving rage.

Leige's territory was cold outside of the tower. Much colder than she was used to on Cybertron; more cold like the brush of the Dead Universe. Her plating was tucked seamless against her frame, trapping in heat as she scaled the outside of the tower. What heat her plating let escape, the cloth she had covered herself in took care of the rest. A high point allowed her to get a better look at the area, get a better bearing of the territory. She needed to know her knew stomping grounds.

It was always easier to come into private places from the outside; nobody usually expected break-ins this high up. It wasn't just for fun. Arcee tried windows, crawled into vents, and slipped into rooms to sort through and read whatever information she could find. She tucked away items that looked dangerous, important, valuable. Whatever she could use.

[ooc: Arcee's p good at this. She probably won't be seen looking through junk unless she wants to be seen, but I'm k with working things out. ]

----

[ 02. Junk Pile ]

It was hard to miss the large pile of junk and debris in the middle of the Haven. The first time Arcee laid eyes upon it, she briefly wondered how it got so big. The population didn't seem large enough to produce that much waste-- it was like it all fell from the sky like she did, although she couldn't see anything dropping. She'd never say she wasn't a curious mech.

It took some picking through, but the pile of junk held some interesting finds. If she picked around long enough, sometimes she'd find something mostly undamaged and completely alien to her. She tugs down the cloth mask she wore, hunching over some tiny machine, trying to figure out the purpose of it. She pushes down the lever, her thick winglets tensing at the following series of clicks. When it dings roughly a minute later, her automatic reaction was to slam a hand down on it, crunching it beneath her palm.

Ah, well. How was she supposed to know it wasn't dangerous?

She vents, rolling her shoulders and scowls down at the broken machine. She still didn't really get the point of it. She pushes it aside, then starts sorting through the junk again.

The only reason he even noticed something was off was because he was flying back to Liege's temple, and the easiest and closest entrance to his room that didn't involve the main entrance took him flying past his window.

And even so, seeing a glancing shadow in there wouldn't have alarmed him; Starscream could more often than not be found in there, after all. What made him pause and backtrack was the fact that the briefly seen sihouette was completely wrong.

So he waited for his... ah, visitor to get back out, hovering outside, arms crossed.

"I believe the door is the usual entrance used for these matters, isn't it?"

The Junk Pile

It wasn't often Elita spent much time attempting to sift through the junk in the middle of the Haven anymore, but going through it was still the most effective way of getting to other quadrants.

So that was what she was doing, cutting through the Junk Pile on her way to elsewhere, though for the moment she was walking, keeping an eye on any possible interesting things. She hadn't spotted Arcee yet, but it'd probably happen, unless the other mechs spots her first.

Arcee might find a familiar face from that high perch she's using to observe the temple. Or rather, a familiar Cybertronian frame with a familiar black and white coloration that seemed to blend in a little too well with the frost and stone of the quadrant.

Prowl was unaware of her presence, and wasn't particularly in the frame of mind to give any attention to ghosts that might be scaling the temple walls. He was here, unsurprisingly, strictly for business. Business that required entering the maze-like interior of the inner temple.

Of course, a change of plans may be in order, should she choose to reveal herself.

Junk Pile

He hadn't seen the girl in a few days. Which, in a place like this, probably wasn't a good thing. He had to go out and check on her, regardless of how angry it was going to make the kid. He'd be a pretty poor Autobot not to look after the helpless... right?

So there he was, idly shoving bits and piles of junk around, and keeping an eye out for a little organic frame. Kid had to be around here somewhere, right?

Yeah. She was just hiding, probably having a tantrum. Kids did that.

"Sure they do..." he muttered, mostly to himself, unaware of any company other than his intended target.
arnhaid: (Angel angel - what have I done?)

[personal profile] arnhaid 2013-07-04 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
... the scrap?

He'd been here alone a second ago. Who else was even skulking around here? His hand went for a weapon, mostly without thinking about it. Turning around didn't really help matters, considering whoever it was happened to be hunched up like a spider and... well.

Were they wearing a robe?

"What're--" Okay, no not the best approach. "Who're you?"
invisiblepinkboat: (May be invisible - important opinions)

[personal profile] invisiblepinkboat 2013-07-04 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
She thought there'd been someone else here - she'd be a pretty worthless recon specialist if she'd let herself get completely surprised by someone not quite seen.

So she stops, eyeing the other and while the cloth is mostly in the way - something in the silouhette is... not quite the same as most cybertronians. Familiar, like a few others have been around here.

"Elita One. You're new." She tilts her helm in inquiry, curious... and whoever it is is also pink from the plating she can see. Inexplicably Elita thinks of the number of times she's been mistaken for someone else. Her back-mounted panels flex, somewhat restlessly, at that.

"For a reason, yes. If you were curious, it would be, ah, polite to wait until the owner comes back." Jetfire frowns slightly as he looks her over, what he can see...

Well, he hasn't seen Arcee around much - she started to contribute actively late in the war, after the Ark left, but he'd been aware of her and this one shares some features, a conclusion drawn mostly from the design of her helm and the colours visible.

"... You're an alternate of Arcee, aren't you?"
angleofscience: (say what? - I did calculations!)

[personal profile] angleofscience 2013-07-04 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It was, indeed, obvious, but well... one can hope, right?

Jetfire took the suspicion and the glaring with nothing more than quiet acceptance. Sure, he didn't know this Arcee's capabilities, but he wasn't more than shallowly knowledgeable about the one from his reality as well, so he simply held himself loosely, easily hovering in the air.

"Know about, at least. The one in my reality started to get involved more directly in the war shortly before I left Cybertron." He paused, casting a glance over her frame again. "If you share alternate mode, the configuration is slightly different."

Not by much, from what he could tell, perhaps even looking rather similar overall, but still with some curious differences. Then he gave her a slightly dry, arched look, helm tilting.

"How honest would you be if I asked you if you've taken anything while you were in there?"
invisiblepinkboat: (Got you in sight - in for a beating)

[personal profile] invisiblepinkboat 2013-07-04 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps they should have a sneak-off at some point.

"If you listened to the Acolyte and actually afforded it the benefit of not immediately doubting it, you know more than some others who've recently arrived," Elita says, voice dry, and she stops with a length of a few frame-lengths between them - she can see the tension laced though Arcee's frame, and, not knowing exactly what it was due to, thinks it better to afford her some space.

They're close enough to talk relatively comfortably by now anyway, though the question makes her grimace a little. Why does it always come to that..? Though. If this is the mech, Arcee? that some from a particular reality have mistaken her for, maybe the question is just an extension of their confusion.

Not that she was sure what it was for, since from her point of view... she wasn't that different at all. Others were just as slender, and her curves were hardly unique... though admittedly both of that on the same frame kind of was.

"I was sparked this way, if that's what you're asking. So I'm... not sure I can explain." She spreads her hands, palms up, helm tilting and keeping a leash of the vague annoyance of being questioned about it yet again.

There's a difference here compared to the usual confusion.

Personal, perhaps.

"Why?"

[There were some high pitched sounds in the distance, coming from behind a pile of debris located a few feet away from Arcee.]

YipyipyipYIPYIPYIPyipyipyiiipyipyip! [Whatever it was, boy, didn't it sound excited? A different voice joined it, although that one spoke just as fast, if no more.]

YesFrankyesINOTICED but...no NO no put that down! I don't think it's sa-ni-ta-ry and.....yes that's better. Good boy.

[personal profile] catwoman 2013-07-05 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Arcee wasn't the only one sneaking about ... or the only one dressed up as they snuck about. Catwoman enjoyed prowling the various temples looking for her own sort of answers, though it was much more difficult for someone of her size to travel from place to place.

It was, however, pretty easy for her to creep about. Slipping through shafts and other small areas made her appreciate the size difference between herself and the large robots of this planet.

Of course she hadn't expected to end up in a room at roughly the same time as a certain pink and white robot. She always hated when kinks popped in her plans.

"Uh ... wrong room. Oops?"

Her drop on the snow seems to go unnoticed by Prowl, who continues within the temple. The crystalline walls, while enigmatic, seem to telegraph some sort of direction to the white Autobot. It was clear enough that he was familiar with traversing the maze-like hallways, and only takes a brief moment to choose a path.

Of course, while he didn't lend any particular attention to any sounds that might give her away (it was a rather publicly accessible area of the temple, after all), that would change once he begins to go deeper into the maze.

For now, he seemed unaware (or unbothered) of the fact someone might be tailing him.

Blurr picks up the can of food Frank found in the junkpile and stores it in his chest compartment. Organic food is really scarce in the planet and they have to keep looking for more every now and then. A can isn't much but it's not expired and Blurr imagines that pineapples are something humans eat.

"Ah? Hello." Blurr turns to face the owner of the new voice while Frank is trying to catch some of Solus's bugs that fly around.

Blurr gives the other mech a smile. "Yes, his name is Frank. A nervous and loud pet at that, but a good companion."

[For a bot Blackarachnia's size, she prides herself on knowing exactly what's going on around her. So when a shadow darted across her peripheral,she paused in the experiment she was doing with the strangely marked canisters she had recently acquired.

The black widow glanced towards the source of the shadow and frowned. Who would be outside her window this high up? Whoever it was, they would be in for a surprise if they tried to steal anything of hers.

Blackarachnia quickly switched over to her beast mode and made herself scarce, hiding like only a spider can as her eyes surveyed the room from the shadows. If the intruder knew what was good for them, they'd think twice about entering a spider's lair. Especially one as scientifically minded as her.

Weapon parts and diagrams littered the room, most of the drawings humans sized, with some bigger ones stuck to the wall. The mechanical components varied in size, but more than a few of them looked like they belonged to some sort of weapon. In the corner of the room was a chained up centipede just laying there comatose for the time being. It was a rather nasty "pet" that the widow had picked up.

And strangely, there were various jars of different colored fluids lining what shelves were present in the room. All with various labels. To some this place might be interesting, to others it might be horrifying. ]
