Tailgate underwent his Act of Affiliation aboard the Lost Light, Rodimus presided over the ceremony and a number of Tailgate's friends were invited. Rodimus recounted a story of his own Act of Affiliation, before writing the Autobot symbol on Tailgate. Unfortunately, due to a brief possession, Rodimus wrote "Let me out" on Tailgate in old Cybertronian instead of the Autobot symbol he had intended. You, Me, and Other Revelations
Notes
- During Tailgate's ceremony, Rodimus states that Ambulon was the last to have it performed, ten years ago. Though the timings in and around All Hail Megatron are a bit confused, it seems like Drift may have missed out on his, as he joined the Autobots during these years. Indeed, Drift's affiliation seems officially tied to the "Reintegration Act" according to More than Meets the Eye #1 and #9. In the latter, Rodimus "jokingly" threatened to revoke the Act if Drift didn't respond to his hails.
