Megatron is incapable of blushing, but perfectly capable of making the expression of someone who is. He’s doing a marvelous impression of it now.
“Turn that off immediately!”
(The radio flips through a few songs: Rod Stewart’s “If You Think I’m Sexy”, “You Really Got Me”, and “Mickey”. He settles on Aerosmith’s “Sweet Emotion.”)
(Bee’s grinning so smug.)
That’s it, Bee is getting chased. If caught he won’t be harmed of course, but he will however be put on the table along with Megatron’s helm, as he covers his face. A grin might peek out from behind his claws.
Megatron stares at the message for a long time, stock still. It’s a response he hadn’t expected, only hoped for, the echo of his own phrase warming him from within.
He has vague memories of the one called Shax, but they’ve all been positive associations with Bumblebee. He trusts, for the moment, that Bee is healed. The request cuts through his remaining fury, and Megatron extends his servo without a second thought, bringing it up to shelter his friend once he’s perched.
“… Anyone who could think for a moment that you deserved that doesn’t deserve to walk on the same planet as you.”
(Bee, from up here, feels powerful enough to agree.) No. They don’t.
That earns a chuckle. He leans his helm over just enough to bump against Bee’s for a moment. He’s still plotting the archivist’s death, but it’s far in the back of his mind. Bee is alive and well, and he’s been missed immensely.
