[He takes a breath. He's been rehearsing these in his head since he agreed to come over and give them.]
399 and 895. Martin Septim, and me.
Martin's some kind of shapeshifter. A dragon. It's in his file, if you read it. He's capable and loyal otherwise [he's very careful to emphasize that part] but we don't know how much the dragon can be restrained if it comes out. They're dangerous creatures, at least where I'm from. It's a lot of power for one man to have, and not a lot of assurance it can be contained.
[He pauses, rubbing the edge of his jaw with one hand. He's trying hard to word these in a way that the CDC will accept as valid answers, should July use his same language, but still not do too much damage.]
You can tell them I'm dangerous because I'm... unstable. [He grits his teeth on the word. It's obviously not something he'd normally use to describe himself.] I'm fighting against something, and there's no guarantee that I'll be able to control it. I'm following orders for now, but there's no evidence that I'll continue to do so if I can't maintain control. [beat] Yes, tell them that.
