[Dwight smiles.]

Right.

[He just sort of reaches out towards the pig.]

Here. It's not the hardest thing I've done. The pens should be fixed within the hour.

[dualbladewarrior]

... he's friendly, when he's not fighting with that goat. I swear, I've seen rival nations be more friendly towards one another.

[A long suffering sigh]

Thank you for your assistance...

[dwightandclean]

Anytime.

I didn't catch your name, pal.

[Playing with piggy now. Secretly a softie.]

[dualbladewarrior]

[Rappigs are pretty darn adorable.]

Lieutenant Hubert Ozwell. I'm sorry. I would have introduced myself sooner if it weren't for this mess...

[dwightandclean]

[Lieutenant? Dwight straightens a little, shifting the pig under his arm.]

I'm Dwight and don't worry about it. Anyone can forget the simple things when everything else is a little...crazy.

[dualbladewarrior]

[Looks a bit young for it, doesn't he?]

Yes, of course. Well, regardless it is a pleasure to meet you, Dwight.

[dwightandclean]

[Sort of. A lieutenant wasn't what he was expecting from a guy kind of panicking over pigs and goats.]

Yeah, same here. I'll get these fixed in no time; so you just have to worry about finding the rest of these little guys.

[He sort of holds the pig out a bit. It just oinks.]

[dualbladewarrior]

[Escaped animals aren't usually in Strahtan training regiments.

Hubert sighs and takes the pig back.]

I'll do my best. Thank you again for your help.

[dwightandclean]

Anytime, sir. It's sort of what I did back home so it's nice to have something familiar to do here.

[dualbladewarrior]

You... worked with animals?

[He's guessing.]

[dwightandclean]

Uhm, if I had to. I did a lot of...odd jobs.

[His guesses would probably be all right considering the weird stuff in Haven.]

[dualbladewarrior]

Ah. I see.

Handyman of sorts?

[dwightandclean]

I tended to fix things, yeah. Kept me pretty busy so it was nice.

[dualbladewarrior]

Well being productive in any manner is worth while, even if it's something as simple as repairs.

[dwightandclean]

I'm a simple guy, so it fits.

[Yeah.]

[dualbladewarrior]

For a "simple guy" you're already being a tremendous help to me in this situation, so I wouldn't sell yourself quite so short.

That said... I should probably return to gathering up these escapees...

[dwightandclean]

[And Dwight sets to work, giving Hubert a smile.]

Good luck, Lieutenant.
