[He huffs, even though he's not mad at SecUnit here, he's actually grateful to it right now. That's just not coming out properly. But he obediently looks down at his feet, his shoes aren't just scuffed, they're actually ruined - stumbling through rocks and forest underbrush is not what leather dress shoes were designed to do. Likewise the bottom of his pants are ripped to shreds.
Instead of focusing on that, because while his suit is critically important, he personally is a million times more critical, he focuses on doing what SecUnit asked. His movements are a little jerky, the signals are getting corrupted somewhere in the cycle, but he's doing it.]
