"Maybe we should patch you up a bit before asking how you feel?"
Hugh didn't even answer the first question about how he felt before Toz realized that the gaping wounds on Hugh's back were pretty telling. So he moved on without letting Hugh react.
He looked over the remains of Hugh's jacket and his fingers, where he found a spatial ring.
"Hope you don't mind if we use your potions?"
"...Oh! No, not at all. I can hardly move right now, so just help splash it on my back, please."
Hugh realized that even if the young man and the cats didn't exactly hold a lot of goodwill toward him, they weren't going to kill him immediately, at least. If he could get more time to recover his strength by acting polite and thus increase his chances of surviving, Hugh didn't mind at all, even though he often had a pretty rude and brusque attitude when dealing with others.
