Hods and Stitches trailed behind Toz, Nil, and Mindle as the five of them headed to the tiny house at the center of the island where the rest of the island's inhabitants were waiting.
Toz could hear the two pirates whispering, but since it seemed like pointless and one-sided prattling, he ignored it. Toz was about to warn Stitches when he tried to encourage Hods into creating a diversion so they could try and flee. But it turned out Toz didn't have to intervene since Hods smacked Stitches, and it looked like he would have continued pummeling him if it weren't for them trying not to anger Toz.
But despite how conformable Hods seemed to be, Toz didn't drop his guard. It might just be an act to get him to do just that, after all.
