Well, something did happen, just not the usual kind of thing that happens. SecUnit has to take 2.0 additional seconds to sort through the emotional hangover and the sheer 'what the fuck' of whatever just happened to it. It has some suspicions, but - frankly it doesn't want them to be true.
It scans the surroundings, searching for and not finding anything that seems a likely source for the sudden effect to its organics, before cautiously taking another step forward. It doesn't take SecUnit long to catch the way the humans eyes don't fixate on it even when Edward's face turns towards it, and despite the fear and despair, its performance reliability goes up a percentage point just from not being stared at, and so it does Edward the favor of not staring in return.
"Yeah." A pause, as it runs through its archives for a sample of what to say, and decides that its examples are all shit. "You're new." A guess, despite the fact that it says so more as a statement than a question.
