IC:
Praetyre listened to Dek, then to the male Mudokon, who showed him his somewhat discoloured hands. He was getting quite irritated by this bunch, and so spoke with a neutral yet somewhat irritated tone;
"Look, this is a medical facility, not a government fraud investigation. You have zero right to be interfering with the lawful activities of Humphrey and Irwin Vykkers Laboratories Incorporated, or the Magog Oddworld Commerce Cartel. We are legitimate employees and certified medical staff of this facility, and plus, I am most likely not even of the same ethnic group that has inflicted harm upon you. As you can see I'm short.."
Praetyre briefly removed his armoured glove to expose his bare skin, then put it back on.
"..and blue. And my superior here is not anything like the horror stories or bizarre sadism out of some laboratories. This is not a public event or Unusual Things Show 4000 episode. So please, go on with your work, and we will contact you if anything unusual happens.. and trust me, it probably will. Interfere further, and I may simply hold you back and slam the door. I assure you the steel door is quite impossible to break, and even if you could, I am armed with military issue machetes and electric gloves in addition to being fulled armoured in a suit and my co-worker Slap is experienced enough here to be packing a Snuzi in no time. My superior I cannot speak for, but I assume he is fully capable of using all four arms to thoroughly cause dynamic impact on your primary muscular area. Or as Sligs might say, kick your ass. Cheerio."
Praetyre turned to Dek;
"This Anni character sounds interesting. I hope she is okay, as I hate to see other Inhabitants in distress. Hopefully, we'll have her fixed by the afternoon. Should we go into the lab now, sir? Or is there further business to attend to?"
