I believe he is, though a tad frightening as well. A bit paranoid, too, but I can safely say that we would have been lost without his presence amongst us.

[ the minibot has been a good friend too, keeping Starscream on task and the like. very valuable. and really he's selected his own quarters close by in the temple, so he can keep an eye on Cliffjumper... or so that Cliffjumper can feel better. either or.

and Starscream? even he sounds amused. ]

I wouldn't mind having a flying partner.

[ no, really. he doesn't exactly have those, you know. ]
