Hunter has never been good with people and words and has distanced himself from people since he was young.

Hunter: "Y'all's cows, sheep, and horses go in th' barn... Th' chickens go in th' coop... Put th' animal feed in th' feedbox in the barn or coop. Then th' animals can eat it any time. On sunny days, th' animals an' poultry like goin' outside to graze on th' grass... If th' barn or coop gets dirty, y'all should muck it out... You can use th' much as fertilizer.. Animals, they're right fond a' bein' brushed, but if y'all leave things dirty, they'll get sick... Y'all can get milk from cows an' wool from sheep... Jus' keep in mind they won't give y'all nothin' till y'all finish carin' for 'em proper... I'll give y'all a book 'bout how to raise animals... Any questions, and th' answers are right in there. Y'all can read books by lookin' at the bookshelf in y'all's house... Muh Animal Shop's open from 10am to 6pm... Tuesdays an' Saturdays're muh days off, though. Now, y'all make good friends with y'all's animals, hear...?"

...Y'all's animals doin' awright? ...If y'all got any trouble with th' animals an' don't understand somethin', I'll lend a hand. Animals, they can tell when a human's fond of 'em... A happy animal will... well, y'all can get high-quality products from 'em.

...Shucks... I ain't no slick talker, but when it comes to animals, I'll talk with y'all any ol' time...

...When I was a young'un, I saw a big ol' cow. Big, but real gentle. Friendliest cow y'ever saw... Ever since then, I've been real fond a' animals...cows, 'specially... Do y'all like animals too...? I'd be mighty pleased to hear it if y'all do."

Hunter: "Shucks..."
"...Muh cow's gone and got sick. And th' reg'lar medicine ain't workin' like it ought... I'm takin' care a' th' ol' girl as best I can but... things ain't lookin' so good... I wish I'd a-noticed she was sick a mite sooner...:

I appreciate y'all's help... I... feel better havin' y'all 'round... One way or another, we gotta help muh poor cow..."

[Name], I... ...Shucks, I jus' can't thank y'all enough... I... ain't good at dealin' with folks, so I've always had t' handle muh troubles by muhself... But... havin' y'all here by me... well, it jus' sets muh mind at ease... An' that's the truth... Y'all're one-of-a-kind... Since y'all came to these parts, I been doin' more talkin' than ever... An'I been recollectin' things 'bout th' old' days. As a young'un, I saw a big ol' cow at th' farm. Long 'fore y'all ever came, that was when th' previous owners had th' place..."

Hunter: "Shucks... I sure as shootin' need t' figure out how t' speak better."
