[Hughie feels oddly protective of Butcher and Frenchie, despite everything. He doesn't want them to have to suffer because of his own poor life choices, after all.
Still, though. He struggles with the weight of the fact of Homelander's presence in this room, and the fact that he hasn't lasered him yet, even though he damn well could have by now.
The shoulder squeeze is fairly effective; the unspoken implications of Homelander's strength echoing loudly in Hughie's thoughts.]
One told me his name was Butcher. Said he was with the FBI. And the other one calls himself Frenchie. I think they're both long gone by now.
