«Ooh – hi! Hello!» Xe doubted that was what it was trying to convey, but it didn't really make a difference. Xe was just pleased it hadn't leapt at xem or bolted. Tentacles still at the remote, xe hit the button to lock the braces the moment both feet were on the floor outside the unit. This might have been a little overzealous, and xe came closer, tentacles all flaring to catch its arms and keep it from falling backward back into the container. Xe got a bit bigger-looking in the process. «Careful, careful,» xe cooed, because those two legs looked terribly unstable. «Just stay here, okay?» Xe said it as if there was a choice in the matter, but struggling against it wouldn't help at all. A tentacle patted its chest to encourage it to stay still.
«Oh. Oh!» Tentacles released limbs all at once, compressing back down to xyr less intimidating size. «I haven't put gloves on. I haven't put gloves on! Aaaah. Oh, dear, I'm sorry.» Xe attempted to pat reassuringly at the headfluff. «Aaaaah, so fluffy. Oh, this isn't helping at all, I'm sorry.» Xyr cephalic tentacles coiled tight, two arm-tentacles curling on either side of xyr face, turning pale green around xyr eyes. Xe was just terrible when it came to fluffy specimens.
It was weird. Xe was aware that it was weird. It should have been creepy. It kind of was creepy. But it felt nice! It was very unprofessional.
«Gloves gloves gloves,» xe sang as xe went to the storage to find them. Hopefully, washing xyr tentacles would be enough to avoid any possible contamination. «There! That's better.» Xyr four arm tentacles were safely covered in plastic, which would probably not be reassuring for anyone but xem. Talking to xyrself in the hopes that the noise would set xyr specimen at ease, since being forced to stay still would be panic-inducing for anyone. «I'll try not to pet you again,» xe said, «but I make no promises.» Xe wheeled a little cart closer to the containment unit, then abandoned it to close the lid again.
«There,» xe said. «Now you can sit! Won't that be nice? Yes, that will be very nice.» Xe pushed gently at its chest to coax it into sitting.
