K's hoping that Senku can read the room enough to ease up on his curiosity about the stone. Trust obviously has to be earned with IN732Q, and they haven't reached that point yet. Though it is interesting, he notes, that IN732Q would allow him to tend to its injury despite the risks, but is far more protective of its sentimental gift. Or maybe it just didn't like Senku's approach very much.
While listening to IN732Q, K gradually shifts from a kneeling position to a more comfortable seated one.
So 'evil bipeds' are... literally everyone. 'Their thoughts are not all known' — they don't all use transceivers to communicate? And it sounds like IN732Q itself may have killed all but one of the other people who were kidnapped here with it. After some internal debate, K decides to ask for clarification.
"You killed all but one of the other people who were brought here at the same time as you?" Or they killed each other, or other beings on the island got them? It's an important distinction. "And they weren't revived?"
Maybe the resurrection process is a new development on the island.
"...We could be your friends, too," he adds, "if you'd like." Never mind that they don't really know what IN732Q's idea of friendship entails beyond possibly exchanging gifts, it feels right to offer; K's choosing to trust that gut instinct. Despite receiving relatively little kindness in his short life, the android remains guilelessly willing to show it to others.
