I am combining to asks for this one, since they are so similar!

This one is from fan_girl2403

Optimus, Bumblebee, does Ratchet or anybody else knows about griffin rock?

And this one is from PrimeStudio

I have an ask for OP: Do the Cons and Bots know about the Rescue Bots besides you and Bumblebee?

Author: *yeets and update in the your face* LOOK WHO'S BACK AGAIN-

Smokes: *pumps fist* Finally! I've been waiting for another dare!

Bulk: *shrugs* This one is technically an ask.

Bee: *hugging Arcee from behind* <But we're still excited about it!>

Author: Well, I would bring the Cons here, but I want OP and Bee to answer the question on their team's behalf first. Guys?

OP & Bee: *read the asks*

Bee: *stiffens nervously* <Uh..>

Raf: What's Griffin Rock?

Miko: *looks at Bulk* Are you guys hiding something from us?

Smokes: *confused* Wait, you mean the Rescue Bots?

Alpha: OOH those guys.

Arcee: *shrugs* Well, we know about them now.

OP: To answer the question, at first, no, not many knew about the team I placed on Griffin Rock. Ratchet was the only one who knew about it from the beginning; I wanted him to know in case their was ever an emergency. Of course, Bumblebee found out about them sometime later. I requested that he remain silent about them. 

Bee: <We didn't want to tell the others about them because we didn't want word accidently slipping out. If the Cons found out about them, back when we were still in war on earth, who knows what he would have done?>

OP: *nods* None of them are officially combat ready, and with our home gone, we could not give them the proper training even if we had the time to do so.

Ultra Magnus: However, after Megatron declared that we would no longer battle one another, Optimus and Ratchet decided it was best to tell us about them, in case something ever came up.

Smokes: *thumbs up* So yea, we know about them! And we understand why they didn't tell us, so no hard feelings!

WJ: It's understandable, and I wouldn't want innocent bots gettin hurt.

Raf: Well, we didn't know!

Jack: Yeah, why didn't you guys tell us ?

Arcee: *glances away awkwardly* Well.. we did not want to excite a certain someone into seeing them.

Miko: *frowns*

Bulk: They're constantly busy, so we wouldn't want to accidently get in their way.

Bee: *mutters* <Their island is a mess...>

Author: *beams* So that answers one part of the question! Now, do the Decepticons know? *poofs magical sparkles*

Cons: *appear acting like this is totally normal*

Megs: *reads the ask* The Rescue Bots, you mean?

KO: *snickers* Such a plain name..

BD: *nudges him with a frown*

SHW: Yes, we know about them, of course. It would only be logical for Optimus to tell us about them after offering peace.

Megs: He told us personally about them, and warned us to stay out of their way for the time being.

Arachnid: Too bad, I wanted to meet them. *grins*

SS: I don't.. such lowly Cybertronians are not worthy of seeing us.

Megs: *glares at him*

Author: Well, that answers that! Thanks for the ask!
