"Yes, I can read. Starscream thought I couldn't, of course - he was calling me a mindless animal and hitting me even when I was figuring out how to use Shockwave's computer and access his data."
Predacons are used to hunting for their energon, but it's easier this way - and Bumblebee had believed in a world where Predacons and Cybertronians could live together. So Cybertronians are off the menu.
"It is...tempting, when you hold power over the people who've hurt you, to abuse that power. I won't say I'd have a problem with killing my world's Starscream if I crossed paths with him again. He has Darksteel and Skylynx's deaths to answer for, too. But I do know restraint. It was because Ravage addressed me as a person that I listened to him, since I'm not otherwise inclined to trust Decepticons. The ones I knew would never have let a human into their ranks, not as an equal. They thought they were vermin."
He shifts back into the dragon to set to work on the energon cubes.
