EVERYONE HATES TIME TRAVEL PART ONE
Who: Anybody stepping out of the TIME HOLE into present-day LA, anybody who wants to witness this going down – or to intervene
Where: Downtown LA
When: August 2nd (now!)
What: A bunch of time travellers arrive in the present to try to fix their dystopian future. See here for more details!
Warnings: time travel. everyone hates time travel.
It's late at night when the portal opens, an undulating patch of wrongness hanging in the warm summer air just a few inches above the street, bordered by shimmering multicoloured light.
A car swerves to avoid it. There's a scream or two, and people start to clear the area, eager to put some distance between themselves and the potential scene of some kind of Incident – others stay put, cell phone cameras at the ready.
If anything, though, when people start to step out of the portal, the onlookers calm down a little – this is, at least, not going to be another dinosaur incident. Cameras flash anyway. Another person screams, presumably because they're just on a roll with screaming at this point.
More than one person has called the Alpha Force hotline by now – but they might well not be the first heroes to arrive on the scene...

Everyone is cordially encouraged to make multiple threads here for either time-travellers, present-day people, or both. Feel free to NPC passersby etc. as well!
Remember that villains from the future who are following the good guys through are probably going to come through at a slight delay.

Oh shit wait everyone is staring at him.
Starscream is jerked out of his contemplation by this realization. Snapping back to attention, his eyes flick nervously between the two of them. His expression darkens into a scowl, which he directs at Solus. "Megatron speaks truly. He is fundamentally linked to the Decepticon cause, and I have come to realize that he has no equal... although I'll have you know that he has personally groomed me to keep his legacy alive, should the unthinkable ever happen. If you mean to imply that I have taken control in this supposed future of yours, while his Spark still pulses elsewhere, then it is surely a temporary state of affairs until his return. His cause is righteous, and would not be so easily crushed."
