Honestly, it almost shocked Arven how few suspected that "Turo" wasn't human. Maybe it was just because he knew what to look for now, but seeing the AI's arm hanging limp, like he was incapable of any non intentional movement, just itched a certain part of his brain that really human-like Pokemon did. That there was danger here. Of course, he knew of all the people here he was safest with the AI- he, it, would never hurt him without something like the protocol forcing his hand.

Not physically at least. It's very existence hurt him to look at. But he would just endure it like he has for years. If he was pressed he'd admit it had been more of a parent to him these last few weeks than the actual Turo ever was. Maybe it was what it was programmed to do, maybe he was able to act on feelings the real thing had without the madness that plauged his father's mind. He tried not to think about it.

He's not an idiot though, and he brings Mabosstiff with him, already out of its ball. Even the strongest human wouldn't stand a chance against a evolved Pokemon, even without it's elemental abilities, and he doubted even a robot could handle his buddy's massive teeth.

"Hey..." he doesn't look the AI in the eye, hidding behind his bangs.
