Idle banter

Borri Paver can be seen demanding an explanation from  Grindo Biggs:

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  Explain - preparing the cadaver's brain.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  Really? You don't know how your own Steel Watchers operate?

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  One finger. Another word, and it'll be your left eye.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  Forgive me. The brains have a parasite inserted into their frontal lobes.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  We preserve them in an embalming solution for longevity.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  This is not helping me work quicker.

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  I'm going to be merciful and pretend I didn't hear that tone.

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  Tell me - what are you doing?

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  Preparing the cadaver's brain.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  Is this some kind of test?

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  It's whatever I damn well want it to be. Keep going.

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  The parasite's psionic connection to the hivemind is what enables remote control of its Watcher.

• Black Gauntlet Borri Paver

  Correct. Now, tell me - how excited are you to dig your stubby little fingers into a corpse's brain?

• Gondian Grindo Biggs

  I am... excited. And fortunate to work on such a momentous project.
