Salutations! You've reached Drift of the Lost Light. I'm not in right now, but if you will kindly leave a message with your most positive energies in mind, I'll do my utmost to return your contact as soon as I am able.

[ Have a voice message in a Scottish accent left by some dude with the ID of simon newton who'd curiously been texting you sometime in December. ]

Uh, hello? Drift, I think your name was, yeah? I have a request, if you could still do that thing with your powers, the one where it rains petals, you know. If you might return my call, I'd really appreciate it, all right? Thanks mate.

[ He calls back promptly! ]

Hello? This is Drift. You uh... required my services?

audio;

[somethinghidden]

[ Certainly quicker than Simon had expected... ]

Yes, actually. Um, do you still happen to have that power? I was wondering because it's rather visible, quite obvious if and when you could use it. That's... something you control, right?

audio;

[weapabilities]

I do... yes. Though it is uh. It's dependent on my emotional state..

audio;

[somethinghidden]

Oh? [ He hums in thought. ] How so? What sort of mood must you be in to actually make it happen?

[ Please nothing too difficult, please nothing too difficult... ]

audio;

[weapabilities]

I have to be either moderately upset or very happy, from what I've observed.

audio;

[somethinghidden]

Is it difficult getting you into either of those states?

[ Ugh, that feels like a stupid question. It sounds more difficult to make someone happy than to get them moderately upset about something. ]

Or, uh. What makes you happy—very happy, even?

audio;

[weapabilities]

Well, it's not hard to get me down about this place. Just remind me that I'm stuck in a fleshy body and we're set.

Or, in the opposite direction, if you can promise me cake and ice cream...

audio;

[somethinghidden]

[ Right, Drift is a Cybertronian and could do things like disguise himself as various vehicles. ]

In that case, I'll get you all the ice cream you want if you can demonstrate your power in a little test. There's actually something I need, something that prevents powers from being used, and I'd like to see if it works on someone whose powers are visible, which... yours are. At least, the petals one is. But seriously, I. Will get you all the ice cream you want, even throw some cake in there, if you'll do this for me. How about it?

Re: audio;

[weapabilities]

A power nullifier? Ice cream? Yeah, I'll be happy to help!

audio;

[somethinghidden]

Yeah, a power nullifier test. For all the ice cream that you want, bonus some cake too, I promise. I should be able to get back to you on when and where, and then I think we should be good to go.

[ He's pleased and relived, and will probably stay that way so long as there's no questions asked about the nullifier. ]

[weapabilities]

Thanks! Sounds like a plan!

[ just letting you know that we'll probably have to handwave the actual testing process since some big plots are happening soon. OTZ but if you'd like to log maybe the aftermath and drift getting tons of ice cream, maybe any other CR solidification, let me know? i also have an open log and can put up a starter if you're interested in doing anything. ]

Re: ooc

[weapabilities]

WOW I thought I replied to this, I'm totally okay with hand waving the tests! I might just take you up on that and toss up a starter!
