Sooooooo letmegetthisstraight: this is some kinda alternate universe that sucks people in, turns 'em human, throws weird organic creatures at them and tells them they need to save the world or whatever, and I'm "chosen" to be one of those poor saps?

[The Wormmon around his shoulders wiggles a bit and makes a surprised noise.]

I-in a sense... You were listening!

Ehhh, sorta, most of the rest of what you said kinda went in one audial and out the other -- EAR! In one ear and out the other. Human anatomy is really weird. Anyway! [Quickly, back to the comm with a broad, dumb grin and a sigh from Wormmon, who squeaks in surprise when Misfire gestures to her. He doesn't notice.] What's up, losers? The name's Misfire, and this lil' thing here is my partner, Crummy.

C-Crummy?!

So I'm not supposin' the names Krok, Crankcase, or Spinister are ringing any bells for anyone out there? No? 'Cos I know for sure Krok will throw a fit if he finds out I've disappeared, and I'd rather not end up facing whatever corporal wrath he'll come up with -- although last time, he just took me off syphoning duty, which sucked but wasn't unbearable, y'know? Oh! But that's nothing compared to that one time --

Um, Misfire?

[Crummy's attempts to interrupt Misfire go unnoticed, and he continues babbling on happily. Crummy looks at the communicator with an apologetic look, and manages to hit "mute" without Misfire noticing. Enjoy the whole three minutes of Misfire just... talking, only with no audio.]

[heyloser]

Yeah, 'cause that really explains the whole "Questions McGee" thing you have going.

[bigsoftie]

You do not like my questions?

['Then get out' seems to be the tone.]

[Video]

[heyloser]

Don't mind 'em in the least! Just easy to get suspicious about things where I'm from, is all.

[Video]

[bigsoftie]

...I understand.

[He really does.]

[Video]

[heyloser]

...Yeah, I get the feeling you would.

Anyway. Like I said, the name's Misfire. How about you, you got a name?

[Video]

[bigsoftie]

[He huffs.]

Leatherhead.

[Video]

[heyloser]

Did you pick that name yourself? 'Cause, uh... you could've done better.

Misfire!

[Crummy wiggles a bit until she manages to smack Misfire in the side of the head.]

Ow!

[Video]

[bigsoftie]

[Well you already pissed him off even MORE. He rumbles.]

It was given by my best friend.

[Video]

[heyloser]

Oh. Well, I bet they meant well, but --

BUT NOTHING!

[Misfire turns to Crummy, rather surprised. That's the loudest she's ever said anything!]

I'm sorry, Leatherhead, Misfire doesn't know when to shut up sometimes.

[Video]

[bigsoftie]

[He's still pretty sore about that. You dissed his bro, bro.]

My name means a lot to me...

[Video]

[heyloser]

Yeah, names are kinda important like that, I guess.

[Misfire's comment is muttered now, mostly out of respect to the fact Crummy will hit him if he says it out loud.]

[Video]

[bigsoftie]

Who gave you your name?

[Why is he even bothering with this guy.]

[Video]

[heyloser]

It was a, uh, collective decision. Short story, someone gave me a machine gun, I misunderstood orders, about a dozen fellow Decepticons died. Could've happened to anyone.
