Background research...too much background research.
Very well, Miss McDowell. If you really do have...possession of V-1103, would you be obliged to allow a meeting? I believe we've already established who we are, from the videos. If you wish, we can provide logs and imagery from V-1103's origin facility. However, I do not believe it will come to that...
A million dollars isn't cool. You know what is cool? A basilisk.
But as she is my pet it'll be on my terms, on my turf, under my authority. All of which Vixen will not depart from.
You will come unarmed and with the bare minimum of people.
Any divergence and you will die.
I hope that after going through my background you'll understand exactly what The McDowell Company is like.
I'll wait until she wakes up before letting her know about you. She purrs quite loudly in her sleep and I just don't have the conviction to wake her myself - I hope you will understand.
Alright then...What do you want with me and my wife?..You better have a good answer to such or I'll say that you can forget any kind of co-operation from both of us...I've had to deal with people asking similar things before, almost all of them leading to harming myself or her and our daughter...

Wife? Pet?...Daughter?
It seems this is far more than we first imagined.
What we want is quite simple, Mr. Brettonias. We wish to examine V-1103. She was only a template...flawed. And she is our responsibility. Legally. And we only wish for her wellbeing, of course...As the first survivor, examining her development is something we completely missed out on. It would benifit us, and her, to...co-operate, as you put it.

I beg your pardon?..Flawed?..She is anything more then that..I think you better choose your words carefully in such a matter onto this cause from where I'm standing, you're not doing a good job of proving that you wont come with such a thought into how to not hurt her..And as for our daughter, you can forget it..

I'm sorry. I may have to elaborate.
V-1103 was our first live experiment into genetic engineering. While she may be a shining example of science, and intelligence, she is not as stable as you may think. Our processes at the time left room for error, and even if the error wasn't apparent at first, it will become apparent eventually. You'd be well advised not to throw away a warning, for both you, and our crowning subject...

Not entirely stable?..Well yah Ive seen her on her mood swings, I can tell that she's not stable at that time..When it comes to everything else I can honestly say that I find her perfect in every way...So if you can come up with a more detailed reason into why the heck I should let you even be in the same system as her, then I'll consider such...And lastly..She is not a thing, she is a living creature with her own thoughts and desires, not a damn subject!...

We aren't talking about mentally stable. We're talking about physically, her genetic makeup is, compared to a human...weak. V-1103 is succeptable to random genetic...lets call them glitches. To put it simply, she has a high succeptibility to a simple, physical breakdown of unknown causes. Higher than most of our current subjects...And they have a lifespan of twenty years average.
