[ TX-701 stands apart from the rest, though Hux doesn't necessarily find this to be a bad thing. There's not much to be done about the height and the regulation diet will get him up to speed on that platform.
As for the behaviors– he's not blind. He's caught sight of the avoidance, the particular way the other troopers would not make contact. A small part of Hux strains, a tug of empathy amidst cold calculation. It's a weakness, but he's been in a similar place, once, twice, several times. Though he has little doubt TX-701 will overcome (he best do so, if he's to make it here), the emotion pulls at him.
And then it's swiftly buried by a quiet sense of pride. 701 shows loyalty, impeccable down to the salute and the way his boot heels snap together. ]
At ease. [ No use in holding formality when he's going to go off the beaten path here. ] How are you adjusting?
[ Something benign to start, a question he'd ask to any of his troopers. ]
