"Him Optimus boss car robot?" Swoop asks. Sounds familiar! "Them car robots trap us Dinobots in black sticky stuff then put us Dinobots in box. Then him Prowl and him Bulkhead take us Dinobots out of box and put us on island. Nature good."
"Where monster that eat him Mayday?" The pteranodon has met monsters before and is not eager to do so again.
Swoop looks over at Grimlock and also starts to get up. Who are we smashing? Are we smashing something?

Bambi makes a supremely disgruntled noise and squawks, "Him Optimus no do it yet! Otherwise me Bambi already kill him. No can kill him for thing he no do yet." Bambi is not the police from Minority Report. "So me Bambi just watch him, and if him ever slip up..."
She makes a throat-cutting gesture with one talon against her neck.
Swoop's question takes a little of her anger out of her, and she shrugs. "Dunno where monster is. Me Bambi sure monster show up when least convenient."

Grimlock stops when Bambi squawks and looks back. "But...him an Optimus! Optimuses nothing but trouble for Dinobots! Optimus Prime back home big jerk - not able to control us Dinobots like Autobots, have us turned off and locked in cave until him need us to smash things!"
There's a pause before Grimlock's shoulders slump. "Fine, we do it that way. Kup and Rodimus probably not like it if we smash Optimus now anyway."

Swoop looks back and forth between Grimlock and Bambi. They're talking about a different Optimus Prime now, right?
"If monster show up, we smash it."

They can start the Optimus Prime Club Club, a club for clubbing Optimus Prime with clubs.
Bambi agrees, "Them Optimii no good." Her optics narrow. "Have to catch them doing wrong first, though."
"Unless monster on us side," Bambi corrects. "Then monster help us smash bad guys."

This Club is the best Club ever, short of the club that gets used for the actual clubbing.
"Monster sometimes on us side, yes. Sometimes we scare it into being on us side, like me Grimlock do to Sharkticons, make them turn on Quintessons."

Only Snarl has a club though, and he isn't here. They'll have to find clubs first.
"Me Swoop never meet monster that friends with me Swoop. Him Meltdown make monsters, but they bad. Him Meltdown also monster," Swoop adds helpfully. He takes a moment to work his jaw back and forth, and automatic systems dispense lubricant to the hinges there. This is seriously the longest conversation he's had in forever.

Bambi just going to point out the obvious here, "Uh, him Swoop? Me Bambi bet lots of folks think us monsters."
They are full of teeth and claws and tend to set things on fire. They rampage uncontrollably when angry. 'Burninating the countryside' is a viable weekend plan for the Dinobots. They're pretty much textbook monsters. She's just saying.
Bambi cocks her head and looks at Grimlock curiously. Grimlock, interspecies diplomat through brutality?

Grimlock growl-sighs, then sits back down. "Her Bambi make point." He looks over at the little raptorbot, noting that tilt. "Bambi want know story?" Kup is the better storyteller, but in this one, the Dinobots got to be Big Damn Heroes, so Grimlock prefers to tell that story, given the chance!

"Yes, but we different monsters. Dinobots rule," Swoop retorts. "What story? Sharkticons and Quintessons more monsters? What they turn into?" It is a reasonable question. Most of the people Swoop has met turn into something. It's the people without an alt-mode who are unusual (and squishy.)

"Yes, us Dinobot best monsters," Bambi agrees. Then her optics light up, and she nods enthusiastically, demanding, "Him Grimlock tell story!"
She will take notes. This is oral history!

"Sharkticons turn into ugly fishbots. Quintessons just ugly and tentacley."
Yay, Grimlock has all of the attention! He must use it well.
"So me, my dinobots, Hot Rod and Kup on ship. We trying to get to Cybertron to stop Unicron. Bunch of other Autobots on other ship. We get attacked by Galvatron's ship! Galvatron bad news. Galvatron shoot our ship down, we crash on Quintesson world, get split up! Dinobots in one place, Kup and Hot Rod in other! We both set out trying to find each other. Quintessons find and catch Hot Rod and Kup and try to execute them, because Quintessons not nice. We Dinobots find little orange robot, Wheelie and make friends! Him Wheelie show Dinobots where Quintessons take Hot Rod and Kup! We smash door down, then we smash Sharkticons good!" During Grimlock's story, he makes big motions, occasionally punching the floor if needed.
"Then big ugly Quintesson say 'Sharkticons, execute them!', so they transform and start after us, but me Grimlock roar and make big stomp, shake whole chamber! Me say, 'Me Grimlock say execute them!' and point at Quintessons! So they turn around and charge them! Then Dinobots, Kup, Hot Rod find ship to go find other Autobots with him Wheelie's help."

Swoop loves this story! It has everything! Action, action, and action! He would totally watch this if it was a movie.
He nods expectantly, waiting for more.

Bambi's notes are disrupted whenever Grimlock punches the floor, but she doesn't complain. That's why she has extra pages. Much like Swoop, Bambi's hanging on the edge of her... floor, here.
Optics shining, she prompts, "And then what happen?"

Swoop could totally watch it, but doing so would break reality in half and flush it down the toilet.
"Then we get on ship and fly to find other Autobots!" Grimlock puts his hand in the air, making a wooshing noise as he guides it onto the ground. "We find them on planet made of junk, fighting with Junkions. Him Hot Rod use universal greeting, we make friends with Junkions. They fix Ultra Magnus for us - him apparently got blowed up by Galvatron while we on other planet - and we all take off to fight Unicron!"
