"Wait... really?" Rita's eyes widen. Yep, she's familiar with kilograms. She knew being an android would skew things, but she really didn't expect that number, given 9S's size.
And then it becomes apparent that 9S is trying to guess her weight, and she hastily clarifies in a dismissive tone, "About three times. Yeah." In truth, Rita doesn't know how much she weighs, particularly now that she has a few new appendages... but she'd rather not give it too much thought.
Anyway, the question is how much a horse can carry, and unfortunately, Rita doesn't know much about horses. "It... should be fine, if it's just for a little while. We can disembark next time we're close to a target, so the horse isn't subject to unnecessary stress." And so they don't get a repeat of what just happened to 9S's horse.
