Honestly..? It was easier to be prepared when it was just being in our city back home with the expectation that it'd just be some crazy mutant or the Foot Clan.
We need to really find out anything and everything we can about Iskwiyac before we go, as much as possible.
I know we may not expect anything dangerous but being prepared for a fight might still be good. We don't know what kind of creatures might be out there, and even if the location is outside of Council-space, that makes it even more subject to the potential that it's open access to anyone, and with the limited info you've found, that just means we're not up to date on whether anyone else has found the place or if something or someone lives there already.
We do have the location of the planet. If we can get some sort of... explorer drone? In there ahead of us, we might have a better idea on what we're dealing with, flora and fauna-wise.
Do we have any way to send something clear across the galaxy without having to spend weeks going there ourselves?
[Donnie strokes his chin. A drone is the easy part, and a data-gathering mission is sound. He'd feel a lot better with more information than they've currently got before going in.
And as for sending something clear across the galaxy...]
Not here, anyway. I have an AI one at home- his name's SHELLDON. Making one here's been on my list but I haven't finalized a design... I should have enough parts for one though.
But I'd love to collaborate on one! If you can wire a bomb, you can wire a drone- anyway, I'll be happy to show you how to build one.
[Anemone feels kind of shy about that, flattered by his confidence in her even though she feels kind of useless around any technology more advanced than a grenade.]
Um, I'll try. I feel like there's so much to learn about the technology most of the rest of the galaxy uses and it can be so overwhelming sometimes.
True, there's a lot and new things can always be overwhelming, but only if you let it be. It's a little easier if you find something specific to focus on.
Me, I've always loved technology and figuring it out. I've taken things apart as soon as I was able to manage it, learned from putting them back together.
Anyway, if there's any tech questions you have in general, you know who to ask!
Lucky for me too, because I'm kind of banned from the library, so I'll have to rely on you and any other way I can find information about whatever I'm curious about.
[She says with every appearance of accepting it gracefully. In reality, she's definitely going to sneak in the next time the small Megatron is off the ship.]
If you could find any books about Cybertronians explosives, than I'd really appreciated it.

Actually...
no subject
There's no way you actually know a way?
no subject
You said you have the coordinates, right?
All we need is a drone to send.
no subject
[Anemone admits, thinking hard. Why couldn't she have become obsessed with drones instead of bombs? Drones have so much more utility.]
Do you have one? Otherwise, we can always build one together, though I don't know how much help I'd be.

[Actions? Consequences? Who'd have thought!]

I'd be absolutely miserable if I were ever banned from any library. But hey, if you want me to look up anything for you, I can do that.
[No one said the library can't come to her! Cheat the system!]
