Wynne: Why do you occasionally refer to Alistair as a “little pike-twirler?”
Oghren: Why? Has the little pike-twirler taken offence?
Wynne: It’s just a curious description.
Oghren: Curious? (Snorts) Bah, it’s entirely true. What, you haven’t seen him twirling his pike? Goes at it when he thinks no one’s watching. Knocks about in the trees like there’s no tomorrow. Caught him just the other day. Blushed all the way down to his navel, then couldn’t find his shirt. I swear he’s going to hurt himself one of these days, the way he works that thing.
Wynne: I don’t want to hear this anymore, do I?
Oghren: I keep telling him, pikes are for sticking things at long range, aye? Horses and such. Not for twirling like a sissy-girl.
Wynne: Wait, you’re talking about an actual pike? Like a spear?
Oghren: Obviously. What else would I be talking about?
Wynne: I can’t imagine.
