{Y/N L/N Perspective}

You sigh deeply as you arrange your paper full of unanswered questions. Clipping them to your clipboard as you look at the two guards who were waiting patiently by the door. You grab a handkerchief, stuffing it in the pocket of your lab coat.

"Good day gentlemen. I'm once again escorted to 682's cell I presume?" You ask, not surprised at all since you are assigned to him, they nod their heads as reply. You knew these two MTFs since they've been escorting you to SCP 682's cell for the past two weeks or so. You rub your nose as you pull the clipboard closer to your chest. "Alright men. You know what to do" You exclaim as they started walking the path they take, along with you in between to bring 682's cell, which you already know the location but you didn't mind having their company along the way. On the way to it's cell, You manage to let out a small sneeze, which you actually hated. You hate having a cold, not only was it bothersome since you are unable to work properly, your condition will also worsen if you didn't take a rest as soon as possible. But you know it's too late for that, you're already committed to this action. "Doctor Y/n, you don't seem to be in a good state to work today, why won't you take a rest first?"

"Apologies, there are plenty of time to rest after this. But now, work must comes first." The MTF sighs in defeat, he knew to himself that when you make up your mind, it would be hard to change it. But nevertheless, it was worth to try, you rub your nose with the handkerchief as you soon reach his cell. There you see a bunch of other researchers and a member of the O5 council discussing something. You cleared your throat gathering their attention as all the eyes fall on you. "Ah, doctor Y/n! There you are! So... I guess you are aware of 682 getting sort of use to your voice. Correct?" He said, his greetings lack of emotions, hinting that he just forced himself to do so. You are used to such greetings, after all, you've been working here for three months already.

"We decided that it would be better if you interact with it faced to faced! Ain't that wonderful? Besides, we are sure that he wouldn't mind seeing you. At least we hoped so." Again with the empty praises, although the last part was mumbled, you were still able to catch it. You force a smile, despite this 'faced to faced' interaction with the so called SCP can be the cause of your death, but then again, it is expected from a top secret facility which contains anomalous creatures that can wipe out humanity to have a high number of deaths. You watch as one of the researchers press something on the control panel as a little path walk slowly comes out just beneath the seemingly large (but not too large for 682 to fit) double doors.

You sniff first, rubbing your nose as you clutch your clipboard. Walking in front of the door as the researchers open the metal doors for you, you cringe as the metal screech as it was rub against another metal, but who are you to complain about it. The O5 member signals you to enter as you nod and defeat and do what he ask. After all, disobedience may be punishable via shooting or whatever way of termination they will conduct. As soon as you were inside, you sniff once again as the faint scent of acid enters your nose, but lucky for you, the mucus prevents you to inhale the foul odor eradicating throughout the cell. You then lean a bit on the railings, not all the way though, to get a view of the gigantic reptile creature who's eyes seems to be looking at the glass above where the O5 and other researchers where at, you cleared your throat as the lizard like creature turns it's head to look at you, a look of disgust shown in his features."Hey 682 I'm-"

"You sound more disgusting now than the last few days." He exclaim. Your eye twitch in annoyance, you don't like being cut off, you hate being cut off while your talking, but you know better than getting angry at someone or something that can easily kill you at the place where you are standing. "Apologies for that. I catch a cold and that might be the reason why I sound like this" you reply cooly as the SCP scoff at your reply. Huh. Funny, you're the one who's being insulted just a while ago. "Let's start, shall we?" You said as the anomaly did not reply but since silence might mean 'yes' then it's better to get this over with as soon as possible. "Alright then why d- Achoo!" Your sneeze echoes throughout it's large cell.

He looks at you in disgust with a hint of worry inside of him, this is one of the reason why he hated your kind, you were so weak, so fragile, so vunerable to diseases, and yet your still pushing yourselves to your limit. But on your case, he was more worried, unknowingly, he grew fond of you and actually prefers to hear your voice more than the other researchers, you are way more tolerable than the other human beings. You on the other hand, only curse under your breath for not being able to prevent it sooner. "Excuse me, that wasn't intended at all. Now let's continue"

"No" It replies

"No? No what?"

"Discontinue this interview" Your eyes widen, He wants to discontinue the research even tho it hasn't been started. Why? You were amazed but confused, You shook your head and look back at the creature. "There are no reasons for the sudden discontinuing of the research, it would be better if we just proceed on getting into it" The creature then rose up from the pool of acid that were meant to hurt or possibly eliminate him from the face of this planet. "I said it's discontinue-" you cut it off this time, knowing that it would be a very stupid thing to do but you need some answer and this is the only way to get one. "But why?"
He growl in annoyance, probably loosing it's patience because of the human that keeps bugging him "Because you are in no condition to conduct such task at the moment!" He shouted, you shut your eyes and cover your ears from the loud noise.

Him acting like this scares you, He never did this before, not to you at least, why now? The creature look down at your pathetic figure its anger melting away only to be replaced by worry, he didn't mean to shout at you let alone scare you. He was trying to prove that it's worrying about your current state. He let out a sigh as it lifts his right claw(?) And softly poke you with it. You look up to it and let out a small smile. "Rest" it said  as you grab one of his sharp edge finger. "B-but-" before you could protest, he cuts you off again and slowly and carefully push you towards the door. "Rest..." There was a moment of silence as you look over your shoulder, he then stop pushing you when he saw that your near the door. "Please" he ends as he looks away from you and go back into the pool of acid.

The com then turns on, static fills the cell as the O5 member who was watching everything from above speaks through the mic. "I think it's better if you take a rest for now Doctor Y/N. We shall continue this in another when you're feeling better. After all, we don't want him to catch your infectious disease." Infectious?! It's just a cold for the love of god. Nonetheless, you didn't argue with it, you just nodded in replied and the door opens for you and you look back at the SCP. "Goodbye for now 682. Thank you" you exclaim with a soft smile as you walk out the cell of the scp, all the researches and the O5 member look at you in surprised. "That is something. Didn't knew that could happen but nonetheless, Dont fall for it doctor, who knows, maybe he's only messing with your head. But for now rest, We shall reschedule this test." He exclaim as he clear his throat, never in their lives would have thought that a man hating beast would ever worry about a human who's never different from the others of the same species. On the other hand, you smile to yourself as the two MTFs lead you back to your office.

On the way, You thought to yourself. Maybe he only wanted you to be in good shape since  a predator won't prey on a sick being but nonetheless, it kinda makes you smile. Maybe that giant beast has a heart deep inside.

-End?-
