Robby does stop in his action when Mister LaRusso reaches out his hand to touch him; eyes flickering to look him in the face, but he doesn't speak, but watches to see what he's doing, or seems to want to do.
A momentary interruption, and Robby's lips tug in acknowledgement for what's left behind, but doesn't remark on it. Returning to the work and his questions, and then waiting on the man's answer. Obvious, and yet--Robby doesn't mean the awkward addition. The comment on something that seems meaningless, with the way that his future (current? present? --you know what he means) dad goes on about the familial bond.
He might move on from it, not paying attention. But with the mixture coming together, and with his own memory not up to stuff, he does ask, "--What does the friendship bond do again? I remember the hostile bond..."
Mainly because he spoke to Ruby about that one, but the platonic effects is lost on him, beyond that it doesn't offer the stronger corruption help. Which is why he and Mob hadn't gone for it.

And the hostile one was always off the table.
