"Oh ha ha. Laugh it up Skyfire. Just 'cause I was the last bot to be sparked before the Well of AllSparks gave up the ghost doesn't mean I'm a kid anymore." Even Bumblebee couldn't hide a grin as he spoke, though he wasn't wrong. Technically the Terrans were the kids now and that made him.. not the youngest anymore. There. Logic. He could do it too, Shockwave!
Though Skyfire was right all the same. The war had changed Cybertronian society whether for better or worse. There was no going back to how things were once before as much as some would love that, but there were younger bots like Bumblebee who never really knew first hand what the before times were like. He'd only heard the stories and read the datafiles.. or watched in some cases. Only remnants of a society long gone. "I think that's really the best we can do now, Skyfire. The AllSpark's out there somewhere.. hopefully, but we can't just assume that it is either. For all we know the space bridge explosion could have destroyed it, and this is all we got. Still.. the humans have pretty mixed feelings. Some love us sure, but there's just as many that hate us and want us gone for destroying parts of their world. Wish there was an easy way of swaying their minds, but honestly I think they could use a helping hand. Their tech is faaar outdated, though the cars they make are pretty cool." They were only just figuring out datapads for spark's sake! So primitive, but still evolving. Easily hackable.
Even telling the tall seeker about the progress some Decepticons had made for the better didn't seem to sway Skyfire's mind. Even Bumblebee felt there was no way they could change, and he'd been proven wrong a few times already. Tarantulas, Thundercracker and Megatron were just prime examples. Surely there were others out there willing to change under the right conditions.
"Yeah. People. You wait until you've got someone trying to eat food in your alt-mode and that'll change your mind right there." Bumblebee laughed. "Lemme tell ya. Crumbs are the worst! And sticky fingers? Bleh!"
