His gaze met Aris', and immediately the astromech perked up; it was oftentimes difficult to gauge a droid's emotions, but BB-610 never shied away from showing his. He bweeped happily, wobbling excitedly like a pup wagging its tail, as he nodded and gleefully trailed after them. Excitement was often a double-edged sword, however, and BB-610 was no stranger to getting swept up in it, blindly disregarding the dangers around them. It was easy to fall into a false sense of security with a decently sized group and a lingering sense of childlike wonder, so BB-610 had to hand it to Braze for kicking the trademark worry into his system again. It was a very effective speech! Perhaps a bit too effective...
The droid peered over at one of the Padawans, playful and giddy as she motioned for Vera to run off with her, and BB-610's motherly instincts - he'd always thanked Valery for that - peaked at an all time high. Immediately, the astromech swirled around to face the front of the young Noble to impede any movement, central optic locked with her eyes. He chirped, a low warbling, as he told Vera to not rush into things and to take her time; he added that the crystals weren't going anywhere, and that she should keep Braze's advice in-mind. He cast a glance over to Aris, as though to ask for his agreement on the matter.
Finally, BB-610 twirled his head around to look behind him, his eye set on Casaana . The astromech bweeped, telling her to be careful when running, mentioning that the cave could get slippery and she might fall and hurt herself. Despite never having met the Padawan before, there was an intrinsic concern that welled at his core for her - and all of them - as he carefully monitored his movements. He'd never forgive himself if he let something bad happen to Valery and Kahlil's children, and he certainly wasn't going to stop being a worrywart when it came to anyone else.
Speaking of which, he cast his attention over to Loomi , noting her nervousness. They'd been spelunking before, and he'd enjoyed their time together - she was a nice girl, and BB-610 couldn't help but feel sympathy for her woes. He rolled over to her, nuzzling the flat of his head against her side with an affectionate whirr, asking her how she was holding up.
