drift is cautious around most flight frames, given his history with the decepticons. being unaffiliated doesn't change the fact that he technically defected ... but his frame has changed enough that maybe he isn't recognizable? not everyone knew drift before they met deadlock.
even so, he's careful as he picks through the scraps to find parts to repair his shuttle, occasionally looking over at the other mech. the swordsmech has quite a long way to go, & he's nearly completely out of fuel ... crash-landing notwithstanding. he doesn't have time to repair his own wounds, but the ship needs it desperately if he's going to get to another planet with better supplies.
hm. no comment. bodily autonomy is big to him.
Fyodor Dostoevsky, from a story featured in The Greatest Short Stories of Fyodor Dostoevsky
Hot Rod is ready to offer an easy denial--as far as he's aware, he's never seen the mech before in his life--but he pauses. Not because he's realized they have met, but just because it... sort of feels like they should have? Like they don't know each other, and that's sort of a shame.
He's been staring for a moment, he realizes, and he shakes his head slightly, gathering his thoughts before grinning.
"Nope," comes the cheerful answer, before he brandishes a hand. "Hot Rod."
of course. hot rod. this is a version of the mech he'd once called 'amica' that must be from another time ... that eases a part of his mind & sparks curiosity in the rest of it, bringing a whisper of a smile to his pale lips.
" ... oh. you remind me of someone i used to know, i guess. i don't see many cybertronians on my travels, so i suppose my mind filled in something that it shouldn't have when i came across you. " he gives an airy laugh as he easily accepts the offered servo, mindful of his claws. " drift. it's a pleasure to meet you, hot rod. "

" Its good to see you too Drift..." Springer bunts the other carefully. Trilling in a harsh rasp in his happiness. Squeezing around his waist as Drift wraps a collar of arms around his neck.
" Primus I missed you."
" you did? truly? " drift stretches a bit to return the gentle bunt, engine humming, optics slipping closed as his smile widens & his biolights pulse a serene shade of cyan. " that's so kind of you ... i missed you, too. very much. "

this mech feels familiar, so much so that it prickles along his plating in a manner that he can't quite figure out. it's neither good nor bad, just ... uncomfortable. hm ...
" ... do i ... know you? " it comes out before drift can think better of it.
Franz Kafka, from a letter to Felice Bauer written in 1913, featured in Letters To Felice
" he always does. " even if he didn't want to, even if it felt like a stab through his spark every time he saw the prime.
megatron looked down at his subordinate. he could see it in his optics, he had an anger deep within he understood too well.
" the only one who can end him is me. is that clear? " he sneers. " as for the rest of the autobots... do whatever you want. they don't interest me. "
deadlock understands the anger behind megatron's voice better than others. as much as orion had helped him out while the false prime had ground their society down beneath his heel, he had betrayed them, hadn't he? becoming the proper prime. continuing the cycle. keeping the secrets of sentinel's rule that megatron had not only wanted to expose, but actively keeping that information away from those that had been exiled to the surface.
lips pull away from sharp fangs as the mercenary's engine revs in a deep snarl.
" yeah. you got it. " there's only one autobot that he cares about, & he's sure he'll be coming with the young prime : after all, he's been christened as the autobot's CMO. & yet, lots of decepticons don't seem to get that medics are off limits. " with respect, you don't honestly think starscream will stick to those orders, do you? "
"As am I." Datashrike gave what sounded to be a tired sigh, wings flicking then lowering. Almost like they were trying to make themselves look smaller than they already were.
A pause, then. "Try the other pass up ahead, my master still has some influence up there."
drift takes note of the other cybertronian's frame language, matching it by preventing his finials from emoting too openly & keeping his front to them to keep the bulk of his swords out of their line of sight. he truly isn't here to fight. " your master ... that would be soundwave, correct? "
he had been on relatively good terms with soundwave before defecting ... maybe that favor remains. the swordsmech is running low on supplies, after all.

a lone seeker ... that is unusual to say the least. curiosity gets the best of him when paired with his urge to help someone in need, so drift carefully approaches with his servos open to show that he is unarmed.
at least it's a display. he doesn't want to fight anyone, let alone another unaffiliated mech.
" forgive me for being so open, but i don't see many seekers on my travels, let alone ones that are alone. do you need help? "
@berrymvses — ( liked. )
" what are your orders, sir? "
deadlock's optics narrow slightly as he watches their leader, trying not to seem tense. he really doesn't want to fight orion, now optimus prime, but ... there is so much that he owes megatron. so much. & there are just as many truths that seem to remain buried with the rise of the new prime, things that deadlock wants to get to the bottom of. " you know he's coming soon. "
@datashrike — ( liked. )
a line of tension pulls at the unaffiliated mech's shoulders. drift knows a decepticon when he sees one, but he's trying not to judge on appearances ... after all, many decepticons that still follow the cause are now loyal to soundwave, & soundwave is moving towards peace rather than continuing megatron's genocidal legacy.
" ... i'm just passing through, " he murmurs with a dip of his helm. " not here to cause trouble. "
cleaning up the blog to begin anew. i don't really feel like completely moving to a new blog because that's a lot of work that i don't really have the time for now that i have virtually sold all of my free time to amazon. in the spirit of this, all former threads are being dropped & it's time to start fresh ! feel free to like this post if you'd like a quick little thing from drift !
@springingfromnothing — ( cont. )
a laugh, bright & clear as the iaconian sky. drift's arms easily encircle springer's neck, welcoming the open affection as a smile curls his lips.
" springer. it is so good to see you. "

hello. it's been quite a while.
i have been very busy working on myself. i am finally at a place where the top of my hierarchy of needs is accessible for work, so i can address the near-crippling levels of CPTSD ( complex post-traumatic stress disorder, stemming from emotional neglect ) & RAD ( reactive attachment disorder, characterized by a lack of trust, impulsivity, & an inability to accept compliments or care from others ) that have sabotaged my life & relationships for thirty-four years. i have been hard at work each week with my therapist breaking down these walls & how they have impacted not only my mental health & the way i see the world, but the way that i perceive others' actions towards me & relationships with me. i will not be going into detail about these things with anyone, but i will say that the scars run far deeper than i expected & i am more damaged than anyone knew.
what i will say is that i am not a bad person. i am not undeserving of care & understanding. i am growing & changing, i am a person on a journey of healing — & it is time to accept drift's role in my healing as someone following me side-by-side.
i will not dedicate a set amount of time to tumblr, as i have started working full time at my warehouse & now work fifty hour weeks. i will write when the mood strikes me & i have the time. i will only be writing with a select few for the first few months as i continue to navigate my healing alongside drift.
i do have a few firm boundaries that need to be adhered to at this time.
transformers blogs only. i will no longer follow or interact with multimuse blogs that contain characters outside of the transformers franchise, at least while i find my footing here. apologies, but this is for the good of my own mental health as i navigate the lingering effects of my RAD & attachment styles.
drift is not on the lost light by default anymore — he is operating within the constructs of the empire of stone comics as a mech in exile. he is not a member of the lost light. he is not part of the crew, let alone part of command. drift lives, works, & functions completely on his own & has zero ties to the lost light as of this point in his story.
i will be adhering more closely to drift's comic portrayal rather than my own former portrayal. his polychrome optics & biolights remain, but now his default build is from the MTMTE comics rather than my former fusion of his designs. he still struggles with his role as deadlock from the past, but he has accepted deadlock as a part of himself & is trying to make peace with it. deadlock will appear as the 'hyde' part of him, a voice that constantly whispers contrary notions that his younger self might follow. please note that this is simply how he navigates the world, similar to the way that i do ( google the 'inner critic' & how it affects people with CPTSD & RAD if you are curious ). it is a helpful tool for me on my journey of healing — if this is an issue for you or you do not wish to interact with deadlock at all, please let me know in advance & i will forego mentioning it in our threads.
looking forward to a better future ; please be patient with me as i navigate these changes. thank you for reading.
Gasket would be disappointed in you Drift.
" i don't need a faceless creature to tell me what i already know. " fists clench so tightly that claws pierce his palms. " i made my choices, i'm paying for them. i've lost everyone i've ever loved : gasket, wing, rodimus, ratchet, springer, perceptor, countless others ... & it's entirely my own doing. so i understand why he would be disappointed, & i don't fault him for it. all i can do is repent & try to move forward. "
