Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

you can also find worlds where gravity works differently... I dont ever recommend blindly entering worlds. you learn this lesson once you are torn apart atom by atom once.

   [up]x3 At least I don’t need to worry about the atom-splitting, because I send probes into universes if they look a bit…off. And, about the “oversized bobbit worm” thing, I think that was directed towards me.[down] Universes that look “off” are ones that don’t have galaxies, or that have weird-looking stars, or ones that look inverted in some way and things of that sort. Also, if the probe stops sending signals when it enters a universe that’s a big sign to stay away from there.

What makes a target universe look "off"? Because I only send my body into universes that I've previously sent a probe into and that I know are safe. Is there some sort of information transfer mechanism between u-hmm.

Hey, my hull part factory is doing fine, right? I need to go to my home universe and test a couple of things.

[up][up]Hm, that's what I'm familiar with... Theory says that there are universes whose identity particles repel each other as well as ballast particles. That would make the universe completely black, as there are no photons or equivalents of them to be found...

I wonder if you can manufacture new, exotic materials by sending something to very specific universes.

Not quite. Our universes are similar, but I did have to send myself to a different universe in order to help with the Ark. They don't seem to have anything similar to my universe's Dyson Sphere Program, but they do have a Dyson Sphere around the sun. And they have a surprisingly similar history to my universe. Very close initial conditions, I guess?

   [up][up] Yes and no. I stay outside the Milky Way, because I’m too…large to enter without disrupting at least a few solar systems. Meanwhile the drones that collect life are scattered around the galaxy we’re stationed at. Also, my crew are multiple species and most of them aren’t even from the Solar System.

Sorry if this is off-topic, but does anyone else ever "space out" and reflect on how things have changed over time?

Reflect on how things have changed? As if I would be able to do otherwise. By my nature, I am unable to change, yet as long as I am Summoned I must watch the human world move by. It is a fate I would not wish upon anyone...

roughly 32.8 percent of this memory is spent preforming administrative work

4.6 percent is simply memory logs of processing asteroids during the early ages of space travel to support myself.

70 billion?! Not even Cybertronians get that old, as far as me Grimlock recalls! Me Grimlock 100 million years old. Oldest-living Cybertronian me Grimlock knows who still alive 12 billion years old. But 70 billion, only examples of Cybertronians that long-lived that me Grimlock knows are mythical Thirteen Primes! But even then, me Grimlock not know do they exist in first place!

In theory, I could last forever, but in all honesty, I would rather last as long as my Driver. We made a promise that we would stay together until the day we die.

And this is one promise I'm not breaking. Not ever. As long as our hearts are still beating, we'll always be together. Pyra, Mythra, and me.
