The autopsy of Wilford Warfstache is a solemn affair.

With Autor and Vyvyan there to assist as trainee medical student and health care assistant respectively, Guppy addresses both of them before he starts.

"Right, Wilford has given us permission to do this."

Well, he gave Guppy permission to do 'anything' with his many dead bodies, but he's not going to say that to Vyvyan in case he gets ideas.

"The fact that he comes back is irrelevant. This is a serious business and his body is to be treated with respect. You can ask as many questions as you want, but anything medical that we discuss is not to be repeated outside this room. I will be letting Security know the cause of death."

This is mainly aimed at Vyvyan.

"If you find the process upsetting and need to step out, there's a water machine in the staff room. Better to sit down rather than fall down, okay?"

Autor is, if he's honest with himself, a tad bit nervous. This dissection isn't his first--he's cut up dead demon bunnies--but it certainly is his first with a human subject. He's not sure how he'll handle it, but he's already planning to excuse himself with grace if he gets nauseated.

What makes this awkward is that the human subject in question is Autor's employer, and they'll be seeing each other whole and unpoisoned after this is done. He tries not to let that get to him. It's just a body, now.

He tightens his grip on his scalpel, drawing a breath through his mask. "Ready when you are."
