[The question is a sensible one, something that Murderbot had considered itself, back when it had first been required to purchase clothing rather than having the garments provided. Long had been tempting, adding more fabric between itself and the world, but long garments can also be a trip hazard.]

I have no preference, only that it does not impede movement.

[The thing about being a SecUnit is that people get nervous about being around them; there's often an extra level of scrutiny, usually with the addition of weapons being pointed at it while the humans decide if they should shoot or not.

So it's used to the scrutiny, recognizing it when Igraine seems to be paying close attention to something, although it isn't entirely sure what, exactly, she's paying such close attention to. Murderbot had, upon arriving here, decided to keep running the 'look more human' code, the one that generates random small movements and changes its walk to appear more natural, but it isn't actively trying to hide what it is.

There are so many things that Igraine could be picking up on, really.]


Yes. [It has to stop itself from saying something snarky.] What gave me away?

[Task failed, that sounded pretty snarky.]
