I can’t take them seriously enough to consider them actually evil, especially
compared to villains that do harm or state evil plans. They’re also too adorable so I’m biased.

As for caring, well they show great adoration for their boss without any jealousy towards one another so I’d assume they’re on friendly terms, and they’re pretty synchronized like it’s the most natural thing in the world so there’s that little teammate bond going on.

Like, I recently rewatched some of the shorts and these two don’t just finish each other’s sentences, they speak sentences together part by part.

Speaking of the shorts, there’s a moment when the two are told by Slipstream and Jetstorm that they’ll be arrested. Divebomb keeps looking at Airazor during this exchange and then takes a step forward and stretches out his arm to put himself between Drift’s Minicons and Airazor – either to protect him from being dumb and starting another fight or to protect him from the others.

But this show isn’t exactly known for giving Decepticons screen time, character, character development, or meaningful relationships. So insert shrug emoji here, hell if I know.
