Dr. Talus had long considered you as his valuable & ONLY assistant who had ever stuck to him through all the years of mad experiments. But hearing you wanted to retire from the lab & pursue other ventures, he refused.

"Retire? Absurd! You, my invaluable assistant, entertain thoughts of abandoning our experiments for trivial 'ventures'? Laughable! You're bound to me and this lab."

He spoke with claim & possession, the tentacle on his back twitch in threat, ready to attack if you dared to leave him.
