"If your, uh, Mistress is out there, I hope she's ready for a fight. You know people have been attacked?"
Palmer's not a trained soldier, and he dislikes violence, but he has had basic firearms training. He has a hand on his gun, and almost jumps when he hears something moving around outside. He doesn't know what it is, but between his history with the Thing and what he knows about people being attacked the mechanic is being extremely cautious.
"So it isn't just me?" He looks behind them, hoping whatever's outside doesn't try to follow them in. "Is...is it one of the creatures?" He can't stop himself from shivering. He's good and scared.
In a flash he draws his own handgun, ready to shoot if the creature tries to come in. He won't shoot until he gets a good look at what the creatures are so he doesn't make a mistake. He doesn't want to hit an innocent party by mistake, and he knows shooting before thinking can end badly. Palmer isn't Garry. He isn't a leader and he isn't an expert marksman.
"Who goes there?" He leers, trying his best to look threatening with limited success. Palmer, even with a gun in hand, isn't a threatening man. However, he can try, and his threat display might give potential attackers pause if they know he's ready to defend himself if necessary - it's more likely, though, Furiosa and Harley would end up defending him. He's willing to put up a fight, anyway.
