M-Bot is out exploring again - it's later, now, than when V had first dashed off into the woods. Supposedly nothing else exciting/stressful is happening until morning - but the drone knows no one is really managing to sleep, its partner isn't alone and in (further) danger, and it wants to move.

M-Bot knows of the monsters by now, and doesn't like them. So seeing someone apparently having eaten one, while a surprise, is far from a red flag.

It chirps an inquiry, ready to move away in a hurry if Serph proves hostile... but someone who's merely curious can get the drone to stick around.
