Heyyyyyy, this is Ned.
[ Heyyyyyy, that's not Ned. That's a golden retriever panting into the screen. The Pie Maker eventually leans into view while the dog moves aside. Definitely a dog with manners. ]
How many of us on board have... pets? [ —Can't quite pinpoint the right word. He really means Digby as a friend rather than a pet. "Pet" doesn't sit well on his tongue, a taste he would easily spit and replace with... "a best friend." The lightened mood in his expression is evident, reunited and doomed together in space, but it's just a little odd how carefully distanced he is from the dog, clasping his hands together. An allergy seems to be the logical excuse. ]
I'm sure Digby would enjoy the company. He does at home, but you know, that's not really the case anymore. [ A pause. Something he had forgotten: ] Yeah, to the newcomers... Ned. Digby. [ A bark. ] Hi.

They're friends. Even though we might not really be able to communicate, they're good company. Loyal. [ He gives Digby a small glance, who does the same. ] It doesn't make anything feel like a hassle. Not at all.
[video]
[Ouch.]
They're good company because they're loyal? [Well, sure. Why not? She'd seen them used for fighting before, so.] I suppose that can be true. In some ways.
[video]
Not that the two mixed very well with their few interactions. Odd and detached, more obviously detached than himself, not that there hasn't been any "progress" with that. He's on video, using his own voice, trying for something.
But something about her. Very... robotic and unfeeling. ]
Friends are loyal too. They're great friends.
[video]
[It's the only way Rey can describe how she "feels" about most people. She views them like a sliding scale, between tolerance and usefulness. Ned? She can at least tolerate. It's good enough.]
Their lives are so short. Someday, they die -- and you're alone again.

He swallows. ]
Oh. Well.
[video]
This upsets you. [GOD, SHE CAN'T EVEN BEGIN TO IMAGINE WHY.]
