User blog:Bzero/Weekly RP – 2016.10.30 thru 11.05

Last week was a consequential one on the MUX, especially in the Shattered Glass universe. On Sunday, the SG-Autobots ambushed an SG-Decepticon shuttle, killing SG-Scrapper, SG-Starscream, SG-Hook, SG-Shrapnel, SG-Long Haul, SG-Valour and SG-Kickback. The SG-Autobots then landed at SG-Decepticon City, throwing down Starscream's broken body in greeting before launching an assault on the base. Sir Soundwave called back to Cybertron for help, but will SG-Megatron arrive to help in time?

Meanwhile, back in the main universe, Benin-Jeri mapped out various routes through the environmental destruction on Cybertron in an attempt to find a way back to Vector Sigma. While Spike tried to assist Quickswitch with a tune-up, Ben and Dust Devil discussed a mission to descend back into the depths of Cybertron to try to pry more answers from the ghost of Alpha Trion. With the fate of the planet at stake, even the dangers of the Underworld will not deter the resolve of the Autobot explorers.

On Cybertron itself, Floodlight met an unusual figure at the Jump Joint in Kaon -- Counterpunch. While at first intimidated by the odd, seemingly-unstable fellow, she soon found him to be a useful ally. Floodlight supplied him with data and observations, from which he acted against other patrons in the bar. The normally-shy Floodlight found herself bonding with Counterpunch as she enjoyed the feeling of power her association with Counterpunch provided her.

Back on Earth, Hannibal and Zandar planned the assassination of Presidential hopeful Diane Blythe. With several US cities in Cobra's hands, the death of America's likely next leader is guaranteed to throw the rest of country into chaos. At the same time in LA, Major Bludd dealt lethally with some of that chaos, dealing out injury and death to an unfortunate biker gang stupid enough to target Starlight Mansion while Bludd remains there as its protector.

Tune in this week for more, including the launch of the Quintesson World universe!
