Bumblebee takes some time to catch up with Sigma 17.

"I feel like it has been forever since we've seen you!" Blades comments as he practically ditches whatever he was tasked to do. "What have you been doing this whole time?"

"Ratchet was trying to officially adopt me." Bumblebee states, pretty much explaining why he has been in such low contact for awhile. "That process took way longer than needed and I also spent some time with him."

"That's nice of him to do that." Boulder says. "I was trying to contact you about something though, you know, the thing we talked about earlier?"

"Yeah, the connection is funky so he's been trying to fix it where he's at." Bee responds. "But how have you guys been here with the Academy?"

"Besides the fact it took way too long to build it and Elma still is not functioning well in some areas that somewhat make our job more difficult, it has been fine." Chase explains, almost looking at Boulder like he has something to do with it.

"I've been fixing it." Boulder says in defense.

"Oh yeah, how has Whirl been?"

"Bumblebee, you literally just saw her." Heatwave comments, slowly going away from whatever he was doing before. "She is as bright as those two combined, has good grades, but she still has much to learn."

"I feel like you say that about all of them." Chase says, feeling like he's heard those words before. "But yeah, Whirl has been fine."

"How has Carrier been though, he hasn't done much contact lately." Blades points out, finding that the calls have been at a minimum so far. "I wonder why."

"I know he has been busy with some things, I know he's debated and talked about retirement a little bit." Bumblebee responds.

"I highly doubt that." Heatwave mentions. "Optimus has mentioned his name more than enough times when he talks to High Tide."

"And how do you know this?" Chase questions, wondering how that is possible.

"He just keeps making surprise visits without any warning, he keeps doing it at the worst times too." Heatwave says, knowing he has been freaked out and disturbed on more than one occasion. "They talk pretty loud too."

"He doesn't call before he shows up?" Boulder asks, Heatwave shaking his helm in response. "That's unfortunate."

"Oh my Primus, I just realized I am related to you now." Blades says, finally registering the news that was mentioned way earlier. "Chase is your in-law now!"

"And what about Heatwave?"

"Listen, I may still be Ratchet's adopted sparkling but his priorities aren't solely on me to make sure I am not broken again." Heatwave responds. "He practically handed me over to High Tide now."

"Oh my Primus, High Tide is my in-law." Bumblebee realizes, finding himself floored at the discovery.

"You know, sometimes I am happy I am not related to all of you." Boulder says. "There is too much here."
