"Oh, simple things; make sure you can still move your arms and legs properly, that sort of thing, nothing involved or invasive. There's no evidence that the potions cause any pain in any of the animal subject models we've run so far, but just in case I'd like you all to sign some standard waivers." He hands out some sheets of parchment with ink pens. "I should note that I have an antidote on hand if anything should go wrong." He waves towards a potion bottle on his desk.
"Oh, well, good to meet you Jal, good to meet you..."
Cedric reaches down as he speaks, grasping the parchment he was working on and displaying it to Jal. The drawing itself is a fairly skilled depiction of the four he was starting at before their conversation began, sketched out in rough charcoal strokes. "I was just getting a bit of practice in. I'm a painter by trade, and well... I suppose something of an adventurer there days as well."
"Oh! Your friends! Those... those are your friends!" Cedric glances back at the table then to Jal once more. "I... think I'm begging to put together why you came over here to chat. As you can see I was just getting a bit of work done, nothing amiss."
Jal says, "I want to be surprised, but I very much wasn't. You can join, if you want. But same to you, you should stay close if you want to come, considering how some of my friends are. My name is Jal."

Ignis moves into the circle and says: "What's a little pain going to do? Kill you? We can handle it..."

Jal replies, "My name is Jal Mrithum. What are you doing there, if you don't mind?"

"Problem here. I don't know how to write." Ignis says from within the circle. "I can give you a blood sample?"
Asmodai will read and then sign his waiver. He will then walk into the circle with Ignis.

The professor gets out an ink pad, "A thumb-print will do just as well as a signature."
Ignis does this then cheerfully asks, "Everyone ready to possibly die?!"

(Assuming I am there and the conversation with the painter is before this)
Jal replies, watching, "Some part of me hopes you do, Ignis. Not most of me, though."

"Awww, I never knew you cared so much!" Ignis tries hugging Jal.
Jal responds, "Very nice. Looks like my friends had a nice breakfast."

Jal embraces Ignis back, saying, "Most of that part no longer wants that fate for you."

Jal responds, "Well, it seems you have talent. Woulf you like to follow me? You should stay close if so, considering how some of my friends are."
