[1] [Mingle Post]
[Construction of the city was going pretty well from what you can see. Residential areas for refugees of both species had already been constructed for the most part with work crews continuing to construct everything else that was required. Already a few small businesses crafted by both human and cybertronian have sprung up along the slowly growing buildings. Though there was some friction and discomfort, both races got along well for the most part. Off in the distance you can see shuttles landing ever so often, either carrying ESUN work crews, supplies and observers or a few more Autobots in varying condition.]
[But one has to ask, what are you doing in this slowly growing settlement?]
[2] [Security Woes] [Red Alert]

-THUD- -THUD- -THUD-
[Anyone passing by the 'office' of the Autobots Chief of Security in the hangars of Sakihama would find him continuously dropping his head into his large, makeshift desk and making everything that was on it rattle precariously. Between the numerous betrayals (Ingram being the foremost important one given his rank), lack of care for proper security protocol (Sarah and Ken) and the horrific security nightmare that was sorting out the influx of human refugees as well as the ESUN members coming in and out of Autobot City it was easy to say that he was not having a good day at all.]
-THUD-
[Red lets out a noise that sounded halfway between a scream, a sob, a wheeze and a large amount of mechanical static as he just lays his head on his desk. This. This is the sight of an Autobot that has just had way too much to deal with.]
[3] [Education] [The Young Spark]
[For those of you remember how that excursion into an underground cave network beneath Autobot City went and are interested to know the current status of the spark that was found, you would find it in what would be the Cybertronian equivalent of a creche. Already fitted into a containment unit to allow it continued existence until its body could be built as well as a brain module it would be educated and slowly learn how to operate the systems of a body through a set of sensors and rudimentary limbs, though sadly it has yet to be able to speak. Still though somewhat slow and careful it is extremely eager to learn, and when its sensors catch sight of you it pulses excitedly as if happy to see you.]
[How are you helping in the development of the new life and enriching its existence?]
[4] [Interview with an Earthling] [Rewind]

[As you go through your daily routine, you'll notice an Autobot - one of Blaster's cassette robots in fact waving at you. Letting out a momentary stutter of Cybertronian, he pauses for a moment before looking at you sheepishly despite the lack of visible facial expression.]
Sorry about that, was just so used to talking to other Cybertronians so much I keep forgetting to switch languages.
I'm Rewind, and I'm hoping that if you don't mind... you could let me interview you for a while for a video file I'm putting together for any Autobots coming to Earth.

Optimus really trusts everyone in the Unity Group so I figured if we wanted a good look at the best face of humanity and all its friends, we could ask around here.
[Rewind claps his hands enthusiastically before tapping the small camera on the side of his head.]
So, tell me a bit about yourself and what you do.

My name is Hitachi Izuru! I'm a member of the MJP program Team Rabbits, which means I pilot the AHSMB Red Five against Wulgaru and other bad guys who are threats to humanity. I'm just an ordinary guy, really.
[What part of that was ordinary?]
Oh, and I want to be a hero.

Yes it is! But everybody else doesn't think so!
[He thrusts his hand at the surprisingly gigantic stack of datapads. And when you consider how much info one of those can store on its own... well. It doesn't help that Red's also paranoid. No telling how many of those are imagined and how many of those are actual ones.]
I don't see why you think so! You've contributed to this... this MESS-
[And it goes tumbling down. Red is now frantically scrabbling to pick up the mess.]

I've heard a bit about the Wulgaru from some of the people around the base as well as seen some of the recordings on them. Could you tell us a little about your experiences fighting them?
And what do you think it means to be a hero?

[Ren moves over to help pick up the datapads. Which is not easy because they are Autobot-sized. Carrying one over the head now.]
It's true that I have joined Unity Group pretty much out of nowhere, without taking proper procedure into consideration. But let's look at it from a different perspective, alright?
In cases where our trust has been betrayed, would procedure have prevented it?

[Izuru takes a deep breath.]
Heroes aren't only about beating up bad guys. Even if there were no bad guys, heroes would still be needed. As long as there are people around, someone will need help - and if you are helping others, then you're a hero.
One more thing is that you can't just call yourself a hero. Others have to acknowledge you're one. If you're helping people then high chances are you are a hero and don't even realize it, because "it's just my job".

Which am I?
From:

YES! Well... Maybe...
[Red Alert lets out an irritated noise as he picks up the datapads, taking the one that Ren was helpfully carrying over. She would note he was really taking his time to get everything in order and make sure everything was arranged correctly.]
They're there for a reason! They help keep things in order. If I can focus on keeping everyone working with them I have less time to worry about... about other things!

That's like something Optimus Prime would say. Just... a little less eloquent.
[He nods to himself.]
Are teams in the MJP program usually named after Earth Animals? Why Rabbits? Was it an assigned name or did you pick it for yourselves?
