Ever since he came across the strange mech last night, Drift hadn't been able to get him out of his processor. It had been a long while since he's interacted with anyone. He figured it wouldn't hurt to try and reach out-- static would come through until he actually brought himself to speak, however.. [insert awkward moment of silence here]

Bumblebee heard static on his line, then an identifier appeared. Drift had returned his greeting, but not with words. Though never introduced formally, the yellow mech heard tails of the other’s bravery and selflessness. A mech that Rodimus came to rely on indefinitely, even if the sword-wielding mech was once a Decepticon.Did Drift dial in by mistake? Why was there no sound?—-//Hello, hello, hello. Paging Drift-sensei. ‘Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto.’ How many times have you heard that line?//—

He was hoping to get a chuckle, or even a groan might suffice. Anything to indicate that contact was deliberate.

//Drift found himself trying to call Smokescreen to get their plans in order, but for whatever reason-- a different name would come up each and every time he tried reaching through.// "Smokes? Not sure what you've got going on right now. Seems like there's some sort of glitch in your communications system or something. Give a call back when you can. We've gotta figure out how anime night is gonna go!"

Sensei- sensei- it's me! Things happened, and I'm kinda- uh- well- it's this weird disguise? Magic anons. I'm going on this sneaking mission, and pretending to be some 'con named Caboose.

Can you keep it a secret for now? Maybe- we might have trouble finding a meeting place. Maybe I can convince some of the 'bots that I'm me?

just-drifting-away started following you

«Drift. It's great to hear from you. How are you? Do you need anything?»

And once again, Rodimus was trapped by awkward circumstances: he'd run into enough Drifts by now that it was no longer a joyous surprise when he discovered OMG DRIFT HAS CONTACTED ME HE'S STILL ALIVE; but since, for Drift, this could easily be the first time he'd heard from Rodimus since his exile, Rodimus had to give him the enthusiastic welcome he deserved.

So how could he avoid sounding underwhelmed without resorting to fake excitement? How could he sound unsurprised without sounding apathetic? How could he greet Drift #7, Drift #8, Drift #9, while still making sure that each and every one of them felt like they were The One And Only Drift, Rodimus's irreplaceable supporter, officer, confidante, and best friend?

The best compromise he had so far was being warm, friendly, and concerned. Make the conversation immediately about Drift, how he was doing, what he needed. Skip past sentimentality and straight to business, but in a loving way.

But he really needed a better solution.

//just going to casually break out into song// "Hey, hey, hey ,hey! Ohhh... Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing, you know it baby. Tell me your troubles and doubts. Giving me everything inside and out." Smokes, I know it's been a while. DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME.

SENSEI

IT'S BEEN WAY TOO LONG

I was worried we were gonna just drift away!

"Smokes-- I, uh. I've got a bit of a problem. Do you remember when I said we'd keep in touch? Just in case anything went horribly wrong and our plans somehow changed before we could meet up?"

Uh? Yeah? What's up? Something happen, sensei?
