second ; video ; the human mind

[ It's late night when the video kicks on. It's at a bit of an odd angle like it just fell out of someone's bag. Incidentally, it has.

There's Cliffjumper, curled up in his sleeping bag, barely visible by the light of the moon and a dying campfire. He's sleeping, but he's having a rough time with it apparently. Tossing and turning, occasionally muttering something.

Very suddenly, he sits bolt upright with a startled cry. His hand automatically goes to his chest, to cover a wound that isn't there anymore. There's a slight yelp as the Electrike sleeping at his feet is also startled into wakefulness.

Cliff looks confused, shaken, and more than a little annoyed when the Electrike bounds up to lick his face. ] Rascal, get off.

[ A sigh, and he buries his face in his hands ]

... All Spark.

Nightmares?

_{[Coop can sympathise with nightmares.]}

[ He frowns. How many people actually saw this? ]

That what you call those?

Typically. It looked like one.

I wouldn't know.

You're not originally human?

Nope. Cybertronian.

_{[This doesn't tell Coop a lot, so have a slight tilt forward in inquiry.]}

What's that?

... [ Sigh ]

Giant sentient robot. I also turn into a car.

_{[Give him a second before he a grins slowly. He loves the diversity of this place.]}

A car, huh? That's new.

I was noticing a distinct lack of Autobots in this place.

You'd have more luck finding ponies or countries.

... What?

There's no shortage of people here from other species and worlds. I'm rather curious as to why they're turned human.

I dunno.

It's damn annoying, though.

I can only imagine.

Yeah. [ he rubs a hand over his face, heaving another sigh ] This is taking some getting used to.

It'll get easier, at least if half the people I know here is any indication.

Oh yay. Because I always wanted to get used to bein' small and squshy and prone to nightmares.

I can't help you with small and squishy, but there are supposed ways to make nightmares stop.
