Cuthbert was stunned, but he knew better than to stay in one place, especially when it looked like something was terribly wrong with his friend. He had already seen some people acting strangely, but he had chalked it up to their unique attire and left it at that. This was different, and much more intense. He was worried, borderline frightened at the look in R's eyes.

"What's wrong? Have you been hurt?"

He might normally try to make some physical contact with R to try and ground him and bring him back to himself, but this whole encounter screamed danger and Cuthbert Allgood was only a really a fool when he could afford to be. It might be better to be safe than sorry just now... at least until he can wrap his mind around what's going on.
