The wounded technician tucked against the wall literally screams and starts limping away as fast as they can - the one with the gun turns from Lion to point it at 'Ignatius,' only to go wide-eyed in fear and retreating as well. It's only the one directly holding Steven that's left behind.
...Who then immediately takes a step back and slips on the water puddle Stumpy left, landing on their back and bringing Steven down with them. The scalpel slashes upward, leaving a cut up and over Steven's jaw. Steven yelps, that feeling bringing him out of his stupor. He stares up at the approaching Ignatius with terrified eyes, as Lion slinks to the ground defensively.
The tech, themself, is totally done. They bring the scalpel back to Steven's neck, trying to make demands despite being on their back, by themselves, in a puddle of water.
"I... I'll kill him! I swear!" they shout, trying to stare Lambert down. They are obviously terrified, though. Steven squirms, but can't quite move.
