"And if this is all some bizarre Big Brother spin-off for the entertainment of a bunch of sadistic scientists, you'd think those emotions'd make for better viewing, too."
His tone's dry - he's joking, of course, but honestly if given the choice he'd swap the anger 'experiment' (if they really are testing something, which frankly he doubts) for a sex-based one without a moment's hesitation. He'd even trade it for one based on fear or sorrow without much deliberation. Violence may have been a large part of his trade for an awfully long time, but he really, really doesn't like conflict.
"Well, so long as none of those people can pick locks, you should be golden." Or, y'know, teleport through doors. He grimaces. "And if it turns out they can, gimme a call. I'm told I make a good meatshield."
Not as altruistic an offer as it sounds, given that being stabbed is rarely more than a momentary inconvenience for him, but he's never above showing off for a pretty lady. Or anyone else, for that matter. Blame it on the ego.
