He was fast all right, but only just fast enough to miss getting hit in the face by the door as the larger man shoved his way into the room. He takes it in stride though, his sour expression not even flinching as he simply makes room.
"Such a relief to have been found. I don't know how I would have gotten by otherwise." He replied in a dead pan, both ignoring the fact that he was correct about the nanites, and resisting the urge to grab the door and smack it into Rico's side before he had the chance to move out of its way. Probably would have just bounced off the walking meat slab anyway.
Still not certain if he believed that he had actually been sent for him in particular (maybe they had been given the same order by accident or coincidence, things were hectic enough he wouldn't be surprised if some double orders were given out), the mere suggestion that was the case, was still enough to ruffle his feathers a bit. It was insulting to think they didn't trust him to do this on his own.
But whether he was telling the truth or not was neither here nor there, he was here now and they would just have to deal with each other. With a barely audible huff, he turned his back to Rico and started searching the room again, digging through a glass cabinet of petri dishes.
"Just how many converted did you have to mow through on your way up here?" He asked as he picked through the dishes, reading them and putting them back as quickly as his limited superspeed still allowed.
