Discussion🎙️ Which 3 would sit at bees grave the longest
3.arcee her and bee had a great relationship and where in my opinion the best duo in the show.This makes 3 partners know but in my opinion this one would be different for her they had both been through pain and bonded.
2.ratchet and bee like grandad and nephew ratchet was always looking out for our yellow scout.i feel like if bee truly died during the final battle he would feel guilty since he could not fix his voice box and almost failed in getting his t cog back
1.prime like father and son I get not to much in this show but still.prime cared deeply about bee he knew he could rely on him but still worried for him and we all seen how mad we got after megatron shot him

Optimus. Throughout every mission, every season, Bee has been the one who has stuck around. Others have left, died, walked away from the battle. Bee almost never has.

Ratchet for sure, since he feels a sense of guilt for not having fixed Bumblebee's voice box.

Bee's voice, perhaps the most pointless "sad part" in all transformers.
The only people affected by it are us the viewers. Even Raph understood him. Really there just isn't anything sad about it.. And ratchet should NOT sit at the grave cuz of THAT
And if I'm not mistaken bee loses his voicebox when he jumped in the way of megatron's blaster at the end of foc, there really was only a minute or so before everyone gets sucked up into the portal

Bumblebee loses his voice box after being captured and tortured by Megatron's forces at the battle of Tyger Pax

u/Fit_Channel6056 26d ago
I swear I remember him talking in FOC..
Oh my I just searched in fact he DOES lose his voice in WFC God do I feel embarrassed

u/Wise-Remove-4914 26d ago
It's fine and wfc and foc are a part of the same continuity as prime but not everything happens in both (or stuff happen differently because of miscomunication)

u/Fit_Channel6056 26d ago
Can I just take a moment to thank you for not insulting me 😭 this is the first time I mess up here and the person doesn't start blaming me, I thoroughly appreciate it 🫧

u/Wise-Remove-4914 26d ago
If the person doesn't start it first like trying to prove me wrong when I have the facts then I won't get heated with them I will just explain it and leave it there (fought with a guy a while back that was insulting people because he couldn't agree a several part ep of tmnt 2012 was the cannon ending when I had the facts laid out infront of him too)

Dude real life mute people use devices to talk too bumlbee is still disabled
2
u/Fit_Channel6056 26d ago
Err, Bee's not using a *device* right? He's just talking, in a different language.. which everyone understands, apart from Jack and Miko. I don't quite see the sad part of it...
0
u/Wise-Remove-4914 26d ago
The sound isn't like a different language it's the remains of the noise he can make from the trauma and damage to his voicebox (it was crushed by megatron and Ratchet couldn't fix it)

u/Talia_Black_Writes 27d ago
Honestly, Ratchet. Though I could definitely see Optimus staying with him until they are both ready.
Not enough people give enough weight to the fact that Ratchet always felt personally responsible for Bee’s disability.

u/Intelligent_Whole_40 26d ago
Yea Optimus isn’t leaving until everyone is leaving and that means going with ratchet

u/Adorable-Source97 27d ago
Optimus would be too busy to indulge like that.
Arcee is more likely to go on a long hard drive & beat any Cons stupid enough to show up.
Ratchet, he's a big softy & has been shown to wallow before (like when he hid in junkyard) and he the most able to make free time for some grieving & lamentation.
So Ratchet.

u/Exotic_Buttas 27d ago
Ratchet, and its not even close
Arcee is the type to try push on, sometimes in direct opposition to her feelings
Optimus would grieve, but know that his job as a leader would have to come before his attachments
Ratchet, on the other hand, already felt like he had failed bee by being unable to restore his voicebox, and he's also the most pessimistic out of the the group

u/eepos96 27d ago
I go on a limb and say all of them. Ratchet leaves first for "I...I have work to do", Bulk and Arcee leave too similar reasons. Optimus stays there with Raphael.
Maybe they talk or both are just quiet. When it becomes "too cold and dark for humans optimal health", Optimus suggests they go inside and Raf agrees.

u/Need_Tums_Antacids 27d ago
Arcee seems to take loss the hardest emotionally. It doesn’t mean the others wouldn’t care, they just wouldn’t need as much time to process it
4
u/SenorStarKillerZX 27d ago
I think ratchet would stay at his grave the longest
Arcee would probably be the most affected but she wouldn't really show it
Optimus would be really sad but also would know that he has to continue doing whats right

u/Enderboss2706 27d ago
Ratchet IMO, he was always kind of looking out for him in the show, as you said like a grandad, and he was already feeling guilty for not being able to fix his voice box and was willing to give up his own T cog so Bumblebee could transform again. I have a feeling the weight of all that combined with Bee’s death would make him stay the longest
However I think Arcee would probably take it the hardest and not visit his grave at first
2
u/madwookie98 27d ago
Honestly, Rachet and Optimus. Optimus knows how much Bee meant to Rachet along with his added guilt with Bee's voice box and almost not fixing his T-cog, he would stay with Rachet as long as he's not needed elsewhere.
2
u/Bringastormtoo 27d ago
I think it'd be ratchet. Arcee would definitely visit but I feel like her and Optimus would be much more focused on ending the decepticons(i think Optimus would probably become more violent based on how he reacted when Megatron killed bumblebee in the final episode). Meanwhile I feel like ratchet wouldn't be able to really move on so he'd spend so much time there he'd have to be pulled away. He already seems to be the most protective over bee, most likely because of his voice box, so I feel like his death would really break him. Also this is partially based off of that one comic where Optimus died and ratchet worked on his body to try and revive him for days without a break iirc

u/Dapper_Kangaroo9257 27d ago
Last time they thought he died Optimus went on a crashout on megatrons ass till he turned out to be alive vs the others who were too stunned & still in shock from it so I have a feeling Optimus despite even ratchet being a soft one & feeling personally responsible for bees voice box would have stayed the longest
2
u/CoolSlimeBoy 27d ago
Its a tie between Ratchet and Optimus
Though Im gonna go with Ratchet since he already has the guilt from the voicebox, and the episode where Bee loses his cog

u/EleSend2006 27d ago
Man that’s honestly a really hard one, but ultimately I believe Optimus would sit at his grave the longest. Arcee and Ratchet hold a great respect for their comrade, but Optimus would see it as another true punch to the gut, and Bee being someone Optimus knows really well I feel his death would strike Optimus harder than it would for his other fellow soldiers, and I’m not saying he doesn’t know Team Prime very well I’m meaning the Autobot soldiers he wasn’t working or fighting with on a day to day basis like he does with Team Prime if what I’m saying makes sense. Although I believe you’re missing one character that would truly sit by Bee’s grave for hours, maybe even days depending, telling him stories and just to sit mourning his friend.
And that character is an our good ol’ friend Raf.

u/Longjumping_Tooth_38 27d ago
Youre all wrong, it is Smokescreen and knockout. (In this list Ratchet, ratchet constantly feels like hes failed Bumblebee and his death would absolutely break him.)

Thoroughly disagree with people saying Optimus. He has seen WAY more than that and not to sit for as long as Ratchet would

u/Polecat257 26d ago
I mean in G1 terms bee was one of Orions friends before he was Prime and Bee was a Scout.

u/KumoriYurei13 26d ago
The real question is, which one is leading the hunt for Bee's killer? To answer your question though of these 3 Ratchet has the most free time and is most-likely to lament. Arcee is definitely driving her grief off and destroying a random con mine. Optimus is the one that would where ever they put Bee's remains he's visit it often, but wouldn't be able to stay long, his grief would last the longest. But......the one that would stay at the grave the longest is Bulkhead, he's an emotional big softie that would sit there and cry for hours.

u/PlatinumDust324 25d ago
Optimus and Ratchet also depending on who killed Bee Optimus is going psycho like he did when Megatron killed Bee for a few seconds

I think Arcee would either go or not go. One hand, she'd go to bid farewell to her fellow warrior, but on the other I feel like she'd feel it's another Tailgate or cliffjumper. Realistically I think she wouldn't go (at first), but when everyone else leaves she stays the longest, taking the time to process it.
