Humans can't be taken apart and simply put together again with no harm done. That process will kill them. Those students aren't yours to do your science experiments on.
If you want to learn about humans and how our bodies work, there are plenty of other resources you can use, such as books or the internet, to find the information you want.
I'm mostly winging it, but it seems willing to listen.
*Looking back at the entity, she gives it a nod.*
Yes. We call these tablets too. Books, and especially the internet, hold all the information you could ever want to know about humans. Our biology, how we live, our culture. Everything.
We have some tablets for use in the school library and I am happy to assign one to you for your use. Plenty of books there to look at too.
How about this, if you return the students to us unharmed and promise not to abduct and dissect humans again, I will happily allow you use of the school library after school hours, so you can research to your hearts content.
If I am impressed by this tablet, I will agree to find an alternate means of dissection. I still need direct understanding, madam. A scientist without practical understanding is not much of a scientist.
And how can I be sure you'll provide this miracle tool should I allow you to leave with the students you come for and then have this altered space banished?
The way he's wording things, he's clearly from a place where hostility and backstabbing, i.e. failure states of the prisoner's dilemma are common. I've gotten some very basic negotiation training due to my husband's work. Based on that, Our 'guest' needs assurances, and I'd rather risk myself, ma'am, than you or the kids.
Baron Akeley, then, we'll duel and you can look and examine me as much as you want, as long as I've unharmed. If a hair is missing from my hair, Mrs. Sakaki reserves the right to deny you the tablet and call in reinforcements.
I agree to your demands in turn for my own. If she refuses to provide it anyways, I'll take you for research in turn, but only if she's unreasonable.

::Pondering.::

Date: 2025-04-30 07:58 pm (UTC)... I guess we can look at assigning you a tablet first.
But they're located in the library.

You can examine me, but not dissect me.

Someone needs to be the weight on the scale.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-30 08:30 pm (UTC)Alright. I guess we don't have much choice here, either way.
I'll get the kids somewhere safe, then I'll grab one of the tablets from the library and return as soon as I can.

Date: 2025-04-30 08:39 pm (UTC)I've become fond of the nome de plume Akeley. Baron Akeley.

Not my usual Deck, but if you're offering a mere means to pass the time, then this should suffice, madam.

Alright. I will leave with the students and will return with the tablet as soon as I can.

Date: 2025-04-30 08:58 pm (UTC)Very well, and I will play with Mrs. Yuki to pass the time.

I'll be back.
