Zero couldn't help a rueful smile at the comment. Kind...right. He perhaps tried to be now, but he certainly wouldn't consider himself so.
The date, though made him stop, optics bright with shock. So...Wing hadn't died recently, this wasn't a mistaken burial, he had to have been dead. So...so how was he alive now?
"It's...it's been quite a while since then." And when he said quite a while, he meant it, it'd been another million years since then, or near enough to not matter about the give or take of a few years. "I honestly don't know about the others. The city is empty and has been for a little while. I was here to see what I might salvage from the abandoned city when I...heard you."
Now he felt decidedly uncomfortable. This was...awkward; there was really no easy way to tell a mech that he'd been dead for a long time and everyone he'd known had up and left, assuming they were still alive at all. Zero'd heard about an incident, but didn't know the details of it.
