The machine, being a robot that's incapable of such human emotions as 'fear', and having literally caught none of what the purple woman tried to say, proceeds to wander off after Griffon. The physically frail human was wandering off towards a dark forest by himself after all, and the others likely had the required firepower to take down the large beast that had hopped along after them if needed.

The machine stands there while everyone has their say, unsure of what exactly to do next, or what the humans were talking about. The only response being a slight tilt towards its Operator, at the mention of the word 'survival'. The machine letting out a simple "Processing," in response, while it tries to match the strange, purple faced creature's appearance to one of the alien species inside of its internal 'bestiary' of potential hostiles.

A mechanical beast stirs in the rubble, its red eyes shining once more as it unfolded to stand at its full height. A faint, light shines from the boxy rifle(?) in its hands, only to abruptly cut out as its whole body slowly turned from side to side. A brief moment passing before it turns towards the buried stranger, emits a slight cracking sound, and says, "Processing," in a tinny voice. "Querying for Pending Orders, Processing, Processing," it stands there for a moment, seemingly unsure of what to do next, before it finally lets out a simple, "Error."

"Possible Human civilian in need of assistance, Unit is requesting permission to assist," It takes a step forward, a faint whirring sound ringing out as it continues to chant, "Processing, Processing, Error, unable to connect with Central, requesting permission to assist from local XCOM operatives." It stands in place, its skull shaped head gently turning to glance at the few members of the party that had yet to move towards the stranger, seemingly unsure of what to do.

I have decreed that this option is the most unbearably American and self righteous of all of the options presented so far, and thus the one I, and the GM would find most comfortable to play.
