"Uh, yes?" It's a sharp answer, releasing the bot's fingers from the grasp of his teeth. "Ain't that the point? I wanna see what kinda mess I gotta work with here!"
Make it an issue-- make it out that he's doing this machine a favor. This is a chore-- and, yet, also a show of dominance, him using the other for his own entertainment.
There's a part of his brain, however-- the part of him that crafted his own arm and leg after having lost the ones he was born with-- that is kind of fascinated by the machine in front of him. Not the supposed consciousness contained within it, of course-- he knows that's all code and show. The individual moving parts, however... the frame is complex, intricate, though the machine's actual body shape is slight. They packed a lot of parts into that small frame, some as small as the bones in his own body. He almost gets distracted watching them shift, having never seen the bot this close before.

It's just a mechanical interest. Nothing more.
