“That’s what happens when your political system centers on driving around a race track,” a nearby Duocon agrees.
Eventually, Autobahn concludes her display and rejoins the other leaders.
“oh really? I never visited the colony before.” He states, interested
Windstripe goes through the (Cough Cough Star Gate Cough) Space Bridge and ends up on the other side.

“Yep, that’s how it works there,” the Duocon explains. “It must work for them, seeing as how they’ve been doing it for the past fifteen million years, but you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone from Velocitron who isn’t hyperactive to a degree.”
@Jcton bots throughout the city were making there way to the Basilica, while others were content to watch the speeches on giant screens and the datanet.
“yeah their culture is very odd to say the least”
The Duocon shrugs. “It seems like all the colonies have some kind of gimmick to them, don’t they?” he muses. “Maybe it’s because the GM can’t write a genuinely interesting world and has to resort to shallow tropes and cliches?”
“mhm.”
The Duocon shrugs once more and turns his attention back to the Basilica. A podium rises out of the floor at the top of the stairs, and Daybreak begins to walk towards it. Many onlookers cheer, others boo, and some elect to remain silent.
Haliaetus notice the micromasters boo and walks behind them, slapping the backs of their heads, “you may not like them, but you should respect them.” He lectures
Maké crossed his arms and let out an annoyed sigh, while shifter pouts to herself

Ironcast is one of those whom elects to remain silent.
OOC Indecisiveness is a thing for me.
IC Stoneflow pulls out some cards and sighs Ill get something Simple and Clean. Maybe silver and white. With dark grey as a highlight? Bleh. Those are all different shades of white. Purple would be cool.
The store carried many shades of purple for Stoneflow to choose from, among other vibrant colors.
He goes into the store and selects some buckets of silver,white and a light purple along with acid to remove his rust.
Ill stop by and buy some metal plates. I should go watch the speeches. Then I can come back.
A lanky triple-changer with verdant armor stands behind the counter, waiting to be paid.
Daybreak clears her throat and turns on the microphone.
“Welcome, one and all,” she begins, her voice projected across the city, “It does my spark good to see so many gathered here today, on the anniversary of what I believe to be the most significant event in our race’s history.”
Rather cliche, Bit thinks as Daybreak speaks.
It’s not lost on Ironcast, murmuring such to a nearby Cybertronian.
OOC: Anyone can choose that to be them, just an opportunity for that interaction.
Triple changer huh. Must be nice. Stoneflow hands over his credit card (what’s be currency we’re using?)
OOC: we’re using shanix.
IC: the cashier accepts and runs the card, subtracting the appropriate amount of shanix.
Windstripe goes to the Basilica. He admires the different scenery.
Stoneflow thanks the cashier quickly and retrieves his card
The cashier thanks Stoneflow for his purchase.
“On this day, nearly twenty million years ago, a new era began for our species,” Daybreak continues, looking at the crowd assembled as he spoke. “On this day, we threw down our weapons and set out not to simply repair the damage done to our cities and our worlds, but to build upon foundations long-neglected, and to aspire to a level of civilization we had not achieved since the original Primes led a young Cybertron.”
“Today, breakthroughs in space bridge technology and the invention of the transwarp drive allow us to travel hundreds of light years in minutes- seconds, even. Advancements in medicine have all but eradicated once-deadly plagues such as Cosmic Rust, and grievous wounds can be treated with ease. And Fifteen million years ago, we dared to do what had not been done since the Knights of Cybertron walked these streets; we took a scorched, barren hell of a world and gave it life, using the spark of our creator to create a fount from which many more have since emerged.”
Daybreak pauses as many Velocitronians in the crowd cheer, and Autobahn beams with pride.
