Well, last night was something I haven't seen every day. I was doing my shift in the repair bay, and in walks Crosscut with a dog. I'll elaborate. Not a dog on Earth. A dog from another planet. And not a typical 'dog' from another planet, a anthropomorphic dog. They are currently experiencing a crisis on their planet, and they reached out to the Autobots for help. Before I could say "let me look at my schedule," Crosscut up and volunteered me. So, it looks like I'll be traveling in the near future. On top of repairing Autobots and tending to Fortress Maximus' injuries, I know have to look up the stuff on Goodboy Tabard's (I'm not making this up) planet.

Cerebros is on Cybertron. Dust Devil is continuing to mentor him, which is a huge weight off of me. It also gives me some one-on-one time with Fort Max. When it's just he and I doing the transforming, it seems like different elements of his personality are predominant as opposed to Cerebros and he, or all three of us (which feel like Fort Max at his most 'complete.')

A few days ago, we were supposed to have had a funeral to honor those killed in the battle with The Fallen. And the worst thing...literally the worst thing imaginable happened. The Deadites attacked. And not only attacked, they took over the forms of Tracks, Bluestreak, Skids, and Outback. Which...reanimated their bodies, and forced the Autobots to literally have to "kill" them again. On top of that, humans were in the area, and their lives were in danger. My dad was there, and he ended up having to go to the hospital (he's fine now, at home, just really sore).

It was scary with Fortress Maximus. We kept battling, but the Deadites just kept throwing combiners at us. As a result, he sustained a lot of damage, but not enough to incapacitate. Tracks, Bluestreak, Skids, and Outback are now in their proper resting places. I hope we can do their funerals proper sometime soon. They deserve to be honored.
