Despite being parts of one whole, Optimus Prime and Roller have degree of individuality, is the same true for the Combat Deck?

Dear Trailer Trainer,

The answer is no—at least, it was.

You may recall an occasion when an Optimus Prime was critically damaged by an Ore-13-enhanced Megatron. Optimus uploaded his mind into his Combat Deck's memory circuits and soon recovered. Unbeknownst to him, the Combat Deck had changed! After Optimus's mind returned to his body, some residual consciousness remained behind in the Combat Deck—imbuing it with a simple personality of its own, combining the nobility of Prime's spark with the pragmatism of its drone programming.

This new mind was so close to Prime's own that he failed to even recognize it as a separate being. However, Roller did notice—and together, they communicated on a covert frequency to support Optimus without his knowing. They had radio conversations discussing battle logistics, how far to orbital jump whenever Prime transformed, and expressing concerns whenever he found himself in danger. Every so often, they had secret adventures all of their own, preemptively protecting Optimus while he rested!

Plague doctors were avoided nearly entirely if the person didn’t have the plague. It was thought that while the doctors themselves were not sick, their clothes would carry the stench of death around, The smell itself was thought to be a cause of the plague in the beginning. Typically, when off duty, doctors would isolate themselves for up to 40 days to rid themselves of the smell.

Is she trying to rule the world?

She pretty much already does. She feeds entire populations of people and funnels their money into whatever she wants.

I don’t think there is a single world power in the setting that would want to mess up what Hilda has created.

Dear Vector Prime, speaking of food; Autobot Spin-Out was a Fuel Preparation specialist, and I know of some cybertronian foodstuffs like energon goodies and cesium salami, So I wonder what are the culinary traditions of cybertron(or other transformer populated areas) ?

Dear Culinary Curious,

As you might expect for a planet filled with a wide range of beings, Cybertron has numerous fuel preparation traditions—such as the famous Haule Cuisine, which requires exquisite planning. You won't be surprised to learn that many Constructicons specialise in it; I knew one Mixmaster who did a marvellous iridium confit served with an amalgam pâté.

More simplistic techniques are designed for easy refuelling, and are commonly referred to as base preparation. They result in filling meals such as iron filing casseroles, servo salads or energon chankonabe.

And of course, every region on Cybertron has its own specialist dishes. In Rodion you can find delicately assembled hosomechi and what I've been assured are red-energon-filled drillnuts. As travel between regions has become more common, techniques have been shared and mixed, resulting in scramble cuisine.

Amongst my siblings, Alchemist Prime knew the most about fuel preparation. When I next see him, I will ask for his thoughts, so consider my own treatise on the topic to be merely an appetiser.

Dear Vector Prime, is there a known purpose to Hun-Grrs base mode?

Dear Based Beholder,

Hun-Grr’s base mode houses a functioning set of scales. I am not sure what purpose this serves, as his other alt-mode already has scales.
