Sorry, chickadee, but Dirk and social grace had never been a well-suited combo. Now that he's really thinking about it, he probably could have just blocked the bots on sight, but that wouldn't have been as fun, and he is a bit of a show pony.
He doesn't move toward the girl least he scares her any more than she already is. He hangs back instead, hands on his hips, not an ounce of that fight mode left in him. He watches her curiously instead, kind of jealous of her ears.
"Bots." An automatic, correct answer, but then the girl is going on and Dirk realizes this chick might not exactly be familiar with the whole concept.
"Uh, yeah, so." He rubs along his jawline, considering her questions. "Okay, first off, you're a cute girl with cat ears. That's a lot of people's thing. Not mine, no offense. Ain't much for the ladies." Just so she didn't think this was him trying to slide into her metaphorical DMs.
"As for the bots, they ain't people. They are just meant to make you think they are people. They're basically systems created to gather valuable information from vulnerable people. Usually. Other times, they just want to wreck your shit for fun."
