He wasn't going to muddy their relief and happiness by pointing out this was just one sparkeater out of an unknown - if hopefully limited - amount. Still, Megatron couldn't keep from a faint little disgruntled noise, crossing his arms as Ironhide both chewed out and praised the bodyguards.
Optimus' praise, probably as much directed at him as the others, get a snort by itself. He may not be that much of his own person anymore, but he didn't need praised like a pet. Even if he knew that wasn't how the Prime meant it.
"For one, yes. But it worked well," Megatron muttered, frowning at the chopped up corpse, and then raised his helm to give Optimus a narrow stare and jerk his helm a bit to indicate the rest of the mine.
Things wouldn't change unless they could change the miner/drone balance around... and maybe even find all of the sparkeaters and get rid of them.
