Thank you very much for giving me some much needed crit.
To start off, I consider G1!Jazz and movie!Jazz to be two entirely different people. And I have not truly watched the G1 series in years. I've recently downloaded it again, but I cannot seem to get through an episode without laughing hysterically at the absurdity of it.
So I pretty much discounted most of G1 and went looking at the comics that have been published for movieverse, mainly the IDW and re-released Titan published ones. He's not much in the comics either to be honest, especially compared to Bumblebee, but what is shown of him is that he's really really interested in information of all kinds, any kind. In the prequel comics, he once found an alien world that's filled with "the accumulated knowledge of countless alien cultures, condensed into some kind of sensory precipitation." There he just started downloading the masses of data until the alien world started trying to absorb HIM for his data. Reckless and overconfident yes, but I think he can also be said to be 'scientifically' curious about EVERYTHING.
I guess I have been holding back on the cockiness and playfulness because I don't want him to seem over-obnoxious with it at the same time. I will try to ramp that up. Regarding the accents, I just cannot do them. As for the slang, English is my second language, and I don't actually know a lot of it. I've tried, and it just looks entirely wrong, so rather than messing it up every time I write it out, I decided just to do without it. The slang was something he picked up on Earth, and he was only on Earth for a few days before he got killed. He certainly didn't speak like that in the prequel comics.

And again, thank you very much for the crit!
