- — Bumblebee attempting to mimic Sundew in The Hive Queen.
Bumblebee is a newborn female HiveWing that made her debut in The Hive Queen. Since Bumblebee's egg was only injected once with Queen Wasp's poison, she is most likely immune to the Hive-mind. She is currently on the run in Pantala with Blue, Cricket, Sundew, and Swordtail.
Appearance
Bumblebee is a small[1] dragonet with black scales that are striped with wide fuzzy swaths of bright yellow.[2] She was also mentioned to have small sharp claws.[3]
Biography
Bumblebee's egg was first introduced when Cricket snuck into the Nest in Jewel Hive. Her egg had been marked 'ORPHANAGE,' and had only one of Queen Wasp's poisonous marks on its shell. Cricket rescued Bumblebee from the Nest because she pitied the dragonet and hoped that she, like Cricket herself, would be immune to Queen Wasp's Hive-mind. After leaving the Nest, Cricket took Bumblebee's egg to one of Sundew's hideouts, where Bumblebee hatched shortly after their arrival. After feeding her a fish, Cricket then tucked the sleeping Bumblebee into a scarf sling around her chest. Bumblebee was present around Cricket's chest as Blue, Cricket, Sundew, and Swordtail destroyed most of Queen Wasp's poisonous plant supply.
Relationships
Bumblebee seems to adore and appreciate Cricket. Cricket was the dragonet who saved Bumblebee's egg from the orphanage and Queen Wasp's mind-control; she also carried Bumblebee all the way to Wasp Hive in a scarf sling tied around her chest.
Bumblebee has a special fondness of Sundew, although this is likely an effect of Sundew giving her food and leaving some sort of imprint on Bumblebee. During their journey to Wasp Hive, Bumblebee tried to reach Sundew by wriggling out of Cricket's chest pouch. After Sundew gave a dried mango to the newborn dragonet to keep her still, she was mentioned to "[give] Sundew a worshipful look."[4]
Bumblebee seems to think that Swordtail is funny. When he told her to be quiet, she fell over giggling.
