It was evident that shock radiated across the facial features of the human. Wait — What?
The alarm radiated visibly from him, wiping all thought of the questions he’d had in mind for the previous story of teens and setting off a signal. The only thread in his head still there was along the lines of, ‘Well, that explains why she was so determined to get rid of me.’
The speedster brought a hand up to his mess of curls, proceeding to deem them more disheveled than before, most likely from all the running and turning he’d done in the past fifteen minutes. He was surprised, to say the least. Optimus had a sparkling? And with Starscream? Of course, it could’ve easily been a ploy, but her story seemed to check out due to the contrast between her insigma and the colour pallet upon her plates. Bumblebee ran his tongue over his chapped lips as he thought, a nervous tick he had probably possessed from somewhere or another.
❝I’m Optimus’ scout, Bumblebee. I’ve never seen Bossbot not at base. Could. . you prove it somehow?❞ It was evident this was hard for the young mech to swallow.
