[It's been a while since Hubert as been on the network, namely because the last time he was... well. He sort of made a complete fool of himself. Granted it was under a curse (which he seems to have avoided this time around) but still...

He's hoping desperately that it's either been forgotten or people just don't care enough to bring it up.

Especially since he's now on the network looking rather dour, and with good reason. He's covered in mud.

Whatever happened, it happened at work, as the carnival can be seen in the background of his video. And he's near the petting zoo, evident by the sounds of animals near by.]

I'm sorry to bother you this evening, Vatheon, but would some one be willing to bring me a change of clothes? I'd rather not walk home covered in filth, and I'd appreciate any help I could get.

And no, I'd rather not talk about it...

I can guess, Hu.

What kinda stuff do you need? I'll get them from your drawers and be over in like five minutes, k?

[dualbladewarrior]

[all the huffing]

I can do with just a shirt and slacks, if you wouldn't mind...

[mysterious_groper]

... Fourth and Second drawers from the top?

Wait, no, the second drawer from the top is socks...

*Yes, Hu, not only has Pascal at some point gone through your drawers - probably looking for something - but she can't even remember which drawer had what... Typical Pascal Logic.*

[dualbladewarrior]

...

[Some how... he's not all that surprised that she's been through his things.]

Yes, that's correct.

[pride_of_amarcia]

I'll have them over in a few minutes!

[dualbladewarrior]

Thank you. I'm... going to attempt to not catch cold.

[mysterious_groper]

Got it!

[Action, a few minutes later]

*Aaaand there she is, bundle of clothes in her pack.*

Hey Hu!

[dualbladewarrior]

Hello, Pascal.

[And here he is, trying to get the rest of the mud out of his short hair.]

[mysterious_groper]

*Without even a word, Pascal passes a quick bundle of clothes to Hubert. Shirt, slacks, and fresh socks. No, he did not ask for that last one.*

[dualbladewarrior]

... ah. Thank you.

[He didn't, but he'll probably need them. He takes the clothes and sets them aside, finishing with his hair and leaving a fairly muddy towel behind.]

Over a year I've been working in this place and I have never once come out of my day this filthy... not even when the petting zoo animals escaped!

[mysterious_groper]

... What caused that, anyhow?

[dualbladewarrior]

A piece of the fence broke... I just had the misfortune of being up against it when it happened.

[mysterious_groper]

... Oh. Yeah, that'd do that, huh.

You're okay other than the mess, right? No wrist damage or anything?

[dualbladewarrior]

Poor timing on my part...

[he sighs and holds up his hand, moving it around a bit. He winces slightly when he moves it back, palm up.]

A bit tender. Could have been worse, I suppose.

[pride_of_amarcia]

Let's get you home, get some soup and such, and relax, then!

[dualbladewarrior]

After a day like today, that sounds positively wonderful.

[Oh, but the fence...]

Though, could you assist me with something first?

[pride_of_amarcia]

... Like what?

[dualbladewarrior]

It's nothing much... I just need to put something in place of the fence temporarily. There should be some boards next to the shed.

[He motions with his other hand towards the shed that contains all the tools and feeds for the various animals.]

[mysterious_groper]

Oh! Y'okay!

*Pascal quickly heads over towards the shed.*

Some wire oughta hold this together!

[dualbladewarrior]

Thank you for your help.

[mysterious_groper]

Aaaaaand done!

*... Extremely haphazardly, but it looks like it'll hold for a couple days at least...*

[dualbladewarrior]

[Better than nothing, really. It can hold until he gets some one to repair it.]

I'm sure the city will be grateful to not have another breakout on their hands.

[mysterious_groper]

... Yeah, that'd take a lot to deal with, huh...

[dualbladewarrior]

Especially if I've truly managed to injure myself. We can only hope that's not the case, though.

[mysterious_groper]

Well, if you can walk, that's a pretty good sign!

[dualbladewarrior]

My legs are just fine, it's my arm I'm concerned about.

[mysterious_groper]

Well, we'll get it all checked out and you'll be fine, right?!

[dualbladewarrior]

Yes, of course. Let's go then. The sooner I get this looked at, the better.

[mysterious_groper]

All righty then!

*This time, Pascal's actually slow to start - clearly, she wants to stay by Hubert and make sure he's okay...*

[dualbladewarrior]

[Aw, that's sweet of her.]
