Blackstone Labs, Second Floor - Clearance Lvl2, Autopsy Room.
[break][break]
From behind the subtle and minimal olfactory protection provided by a facemask, her nose wrinkles due to the overwhelming scent of sea brine and putrefaction. An autopsy had already been performed on the corpse, most of it having been removed due to the sheer state of its decomposition after having been recovered from the depths of the ocean, but she wouldn’t be here if there weren’t a job to do, nor would Naomi Sato and Cillian Quinn.
[break][break]

SPOILER: Click to show

On a pristine dissection table lies what at first looks like no more than a dead Tentacool like any other, except that this one is attached to part of a severed torso – bloated and covered in barnacles. She should want to run, she should want to get the hell out of this place, but while those instincts are there and prevalent, there is single reason why Ceri stops herself from taking a step back: curiosity.
[break][break]
This had been a request coming from Rowan Wrynn himself. This is, according to what she had been told, one of the monstrous hybrids that had attacked Underboss Martín del Mar and Rocket Beast bryan delarosa at Sea Mauville, a project that to her really is sounding like nothing but trouble. Then again, that may be her bias talking: Ceri has never liked the sea.
[break][break]
This right here? It sure doesn’t do much to give her a more favourable opinion.
[break][break]
”Sea Mauville Specimen One.” She narrates for the Rotom phone that floats nearby, recording the procedure. ”Tentacool anatomy corresponds with species standard at first glance. Colouration appears normal for the most part, aside from dark markings at the top of the bell… Bloodshot eyes. Likely a result of attachment to corpse? Method of attachment to the human body is still unknown. Presumed neural due to Sea Mauville accounts.”
[break][break]
She looks at Cillian Quinn, and even though she wonders why he of all people has to deal with this sort of job, that is not the question she asks then:
[break][break]
”Should we begin the dissection? ”
[break][break]
A look is spared for Naomi Sato, and to her, its with her gaze that Ceri asks a much different question: Are you doing okay?

Ceri Glynn Naomi Sato

He'll never get used to the stench of death.

There had been so much of it, in Kanto. Death, decay, and burning flesh. Smells to haunt his nightmares. Yet for all his experience on the battlegrounds of war, the odor of a rotting corpse in the autopsy room still turns his stomach. He endures it through the paltry protection of a mask, just as Ceri Glynn does.

He is here out of a morbid curiosity, a need to understand what force had compelled him to disregard his deepest fear and plunge into the icy ocean's depths. It was more than the call of the void, that bizarre human impulse to challenge a dangerous situation. It had been supernatural, of that he was sure. Had that very same compulsion led the corpse now attached to this Tentacruel to meet their own end in the sea?

"Begin."

This is not the sort of place Nomi had ever expected to be. In a lab? Of course. Performing a dissections? Yes, probably. But a secret lab performing a grotesque - no, nightmarish - dissection, on a creature Nomi still could not believe was actually real?[break][break]
No, she could never have predicted this.[break][break]
And yet, as her friend Ceri Glynn looked over to check on her - kindly expression somewhat obscured by the mask on her face, the same sort of mask Nomi was also wearing - Nomi felt nothing but gratitude: for Ceri, and for this opportunity.[break][break]
For beneath the revulsion at witnessing the mangled corpse of the hybrid monster before her, Nomi felt a deep and profound fascination. Who was responsible for the creation of such a thing? How did it work exactly? What would it say, if it were still alive - if it could speak? Nomi had a thousand questions, and all of them felt more important than the simplistic, if understandably human, reactions of disgust and apprehension.[break][break]
Nomi returned Ceri's nonverbal inquiry with a soft smile - I'm allright! it communicated.[break][break]
And then Cillian Quinn commanded them to begin, and so they did.[break][break]
Nomi was in charge of the equipment needed to begin cutting open the body. She grabbed a scalpel and a pair of forceps, and held them out to Ceri with steady hands. Then she picked up a metal pan to catch any liquid that might spurt forth during the first incision. In her Pokémon Biology classes at Slateport University, she'd dissected a few Rattata and Caterpie...but nothing like this.[break][break]
The Rotom floated above them, recording everything. It was nice not to have to take any notes: it meant Nomi could focus fully on what was happening on the operating table. "Let me know what you need next," She murmured to Ceri, tone a mix of encouraging and excited.

Even before she became a Toxicologist, Toxinology was one of Ceri’s greatest interests. Venoms, poisons, the toxins produced by all sorts of living creatures. It all began with everything her mother loved telling her about plants, and in time, the fascination she had developed had become her reason to pursue such a career path.
[break][break]
Even now, even when the pungent scents that fill the room make her feel queasy and lightheaded, performing a necropsy on a Tentacool is too interesting for her to step away. It’s more than just about following orders.
[break][break]
It’s the careful way in which she studies the specimen, giving her Rotom notes on everything she sees. The movements of the scalpel Naomi Sato had given her are filled with the precision that comes with practice, for this is far from the first time Ceri dissected such a pokémon. Never one like this one, though. This is not what she’d expect to find when studying a Tentacool.
[break][break]
Her gaze meets that of her friend one again.
[break][break]
”I’m going to check the inner organs now… Fair warning, a Tentacool’s body is 99% water, so it’ll get messy.” The fact that it’s still holding together is strange too, but she has made sure to collect samples from areas that aren’t decomposed to study under the microscope later. Especially for the sake of studying its cnidocytes.
[break][break]
”I have a feeling the venom of these Tentacool may be different from most… The Tentacool line isn’t classified as psychic pokémon, so if they’re really connected to what happened at Sea Mauville, powerful neurotoxins might have to do with it.” This time she glances at Cillian Quinn while working. Ceri wastes no time, but she also doesn’t seem to be in a rush. It’s delicate work and she treats it as such. ”It may be something completely different, though. The way these are attached to corpses is almost parasitic, which doesn’t really make sense.”
[break][break]
Parasitology. Another great interest of hers.

There is another reason Gavin is here.

It is not his first dissection of a human cadaver.

But could this thing truly be called human, anymore? Its torso and limbs bear the façade of humanity but a simple glance up to the Tentacool on which Ceri Glynn works is a chilling reminder of otherness. He is attentive toward Ceri as she explains her theory, his amber gaze sharp.

"Scalpel," he requests of Naomi Sato, and begins to cut.

Nomi handed Cillian Quinn a second scalpel without hesitation. The man's expression was a neutral mask of focus as he began cutting into the human part of the creature's body. He has done this before, Nomi noted. That much was obvious - and unsurprising. The hardest part was deciding which of the two dissections Nomi wanted to observe most.[break][break]
Nomi listened to Ceri Glynn's theorizing with interest. "If it's a parasite, then perhaps the toxins are used to incapacitate the hosts to allow for easier entry?" Nomi guessed, curious. "An atypical poison creating a paralyzing effect, perhaps. The point isn't to kill, just weaken." Her friend was the toxicology expert, but Nomi had a talent for chemistry. Considering what could be mixing was always on her mind - and this was a particularly intriguing case of two very different lifeforms mixing in a way Nomi had never seen before. Does one control the other? Or did they truly merge into something...new?[break][break]
Nomi readied herself for what might be a sudden splash of liquid as Ceri and Gavin continued with their efforts.
