Data blinks and watches the man try to pet Spot. Try being the keyword here, because Spot is being Spot and would probably lead this poor man all over the roof if he hadn't noticed Data and stopped.
"I s-su-suppose."
Data takes a step forward and beckons to Spot, who happily trots over. He scoops her up and takes another step or two towards the other man.
"Spot is s-s-sometimes difficult with strangers." A pause. Oh, he should introduce himself. "My apologies. I-I am Data."
