Narration fully encourages any and all cloning of hitmen by the mech. Thus let it be noted. The rest of Anchor, Gokudera included may beg to differ but Starscream is definitely on to something here. There is not a duplicitous bone in the young man's body.

He blinks "We can hang out, I can teach you baseball or you and Gokudera could go over some cool books you both like or talk about stuff I'm not smart enough to talk about with him. We'll be friends! Maybe I can even get stuff and make sushi like my old man, maybe not but I won't know till I try."

Be his friend Starscream, look he is so puppy-dog like it is almost possible to imagine his tail wagging.
