If the Dragoon Officer has a low intelligence stat and no understanding of Antari language, his reaction to an Antari farmer's complaint about one of his men can be somewhat hilarious.
It appears that your Dragoon has broken into the man's farm and killed the man's son in a knife fight!
The quote above isn't what makes it funny, but because this turns out to be a misunderstanding— the men did not kill the farmer's son, but his pig instead. Since the MC does not speak Antari, the farmer had use gestures to get the message through. Which is another funny image.
The MC can be quite a Deadpan Snarker to the deserting officer if he stays with Cazarosta and chooses a certain option:
Dragoon Officer (the player): Now, I believe you were in the middle of an act of rank cowardice before I so rudely interrupted you. I beg your pardon, please carry on.

In the first battle, one of the options to save the MC's routing squadron is to taunt the Antari. If the MC talks Antari, this happens:
You shout horrible, disgusting things about their mothers, their sisters, and their goats.
Choosing to let the men sing during the Forlorn Hope chapter, nets the following conversation with Campos:
Dragoon Officer(the player): "The men need something to keep their minds occupied. Give them a tune, would you?"
Campos: "I, uh— I can't sing, sir."
DO: "Says who?"
Campos: "Says everyone in the regiment who's heard me try,"
DO: "Well, it won't kill them to hear you try again, Sergeant,"
Campos (muttering despondently): "No, they might just kill me instead,"
(But then he saw the steel in your eyes and acquiesced to your bizarre command.)
Campos: "Alright. I'll try, sir."
If you the situations spins out of control and the Dragoon Officer loses control of his men at the sack of Kharangia and asks Hernandes for help, this happens:
Hernandes: "Dragoons! I cannot bear to punish you if you disobey orders, I would have to request the intervention of the Colour-sergeant."
Hernandes might have gotten a similar effect by mentioning the name of some old and terrible dark god. They may not be afraid of you, or of Hernandes, but it is well known that Colour-sergeant Wagar fells trees with his bare hands, crushes walnuts with his bare fists, and feasts upon the flesh of human babies. None dare risk his ire.
The men get back into ranks.
Harlech will burst out vulgar comments from time to time, but he cuts himself off when realizing there are ladies nearby.
Hernandes's stuttering habit can also give a good chuckle at times, especially when he is trying to deliver an urgent message.
If the PC saves Lewes and his men and gains his respect, his CO snarks about how he has quite delightful things to say about him:
Major Reyes: "Nothing but compliments, glowing ones at that. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that he was wanting to go to bed with you."
If the PC brings his knight armor with him during the Forlorn Hope, this happens when you descend down the glacis:
"It is only with the greatest care that you jump off into the ditch, and it is only due to your great coordination of body that you are able to land without breaking anything. No, the only damage you take is to your dignity, for you land not on the stone which would have originally made up the bottom of the dry moat, but instead on a soft bed made up of who knows how many years' worth of rubbish and sewage."

Warburton enters the Rendower Club late due to engaging in "undercover bussiness", as in "under the cover of undergarment"
If you paid a visit to Admirality Club before applying, Lefebvre/Havelock will ask you why you are here. You can choose to ask at most three questions before answering them. As you did, Lefebvre's patient begins to wear thin, and Havelock is amazed that you had managed to change the subject of their conversation, repeatedly.
Cazarosta eventually caught up on your character's habit of always asking questions when talking with another character.
Cazarosta: You always have questions. I suppose one day, it may get you killed, though I believe I may say with some confidence that it won't be through any doing on my part.
If you take up your seat in the Cortes and choose a side, your reputation will be attacked by the opposing faction. Should you choose to fight back even harder...
'An illiterate hooligan,' one broadsheet calls you. 'A screaming lunatic,' says another. 'An ill-bred fanatic of such poor character that he is easily mistaken for a rabid weasel, though he shares few of that creature's nobler qualities.'
Leannejouwe: "Given the manner in which the clandestine services of the Great Enemy are now moving, and the rather unusual disturbances which your own intelligence service has detected, we must conclude it a certainty that the most prominent of your domestic antagonists intends to set into motion some sort of unscheduled armed intervention in the regular processes of your government, sometime within the bounds of the near foreseeable future."note In short, Majesty, the Duke of Wulfram intends to stage an armed coup within the month.
