[Newt's communicator has no message; it just beeps. Chances of him actually getting a message are slim, given he doesn't know the network exists, yet.

But if you really want to talk to him, feel free to track him down here.]

Good afternoon, Mr. Scamander. This is Benton Fraser. I was told you are the current warden in charge of the veterinary clinic. Is this the case? And, if so, do you have any current inmate staff openings?

Re: [Text]

[ifoundthem]

That is me, yes. It isn't precisely busy in the clinic, but I don't see why that means you can't help.

[Newt probably doesn't even know there's an official number of openings for inmates working under him. Managing people is not his strong suit.]

What kinds of things would you need me to do?

You would learn basic care for common species on board. We take in pets and companions should their keepers be indisposed. We do some exams and basic treatments. Cleaning, of course. Feeding.

All right. I believe I'm equipped for that.

As a matter of fact, I think you might have 'met' my wolf, Diefenbaker, in a manner of speaking. Yes?

Was that his name? Is he here?

[Newt would like to meet a wolf.]

Yes and no, in that order. I felt it more prudent to have him remain in Chicago for the time being.

That really happened, incidentally, except for the magic battle. He went deaf jumping in after me.

That's too bad. On both counts. Though many animals adjust quite well to the loss of a sense.

Yes, he manages very well. It helps that he picked up lip-reading somewhere along the way.

People underestimate animals so easily. Even magical ones.
