There's unfortunately no way for Primus to hold the DADWALKER in either of his storage pouches, but it'll be easy enough to pick it up on the way back home. He makes his way up the ladder and lets Buddy out on the porch.
Buddy's immediately frightened by the sheer height of the treehouse, sticking as close to the base's walls as possible. Dad hauls herself up (not without difficulty) and tries to calm the panicking TCP down. It's fine, she says, we're safe and Primus can carry you up and down the ladder. You're okay, and nothing bad is going to happen on her watch.
Buddy makes a soft sound, a metallic whine of anxiety, and Dad pats it gently on the back. Dad gives Primus a thumbs up and the go ahead to check around the outside porch and surrounding area while she takes Buddy inside to relax and breathe a bit. Primus thanks her sincerely, and gets to work on surveying the surrounding area.
Everything surrounding the base is decently visible, and Primus can start taking note of the other points of interest nearby. He makes sure to try and remember everything's relative location so he can pass on the information to Buddy, and a map could be made later on. Bee keeps him company, occasionally bumping into the side of the base.
