[Alex would feel terribly bad about crashing onto the smaller young man, but in truth, he's just blessedly happy to not fall to the stone ground. He grunts softly in pain as Xanth manages to catch and keep this from happening, clinging to the other man as much as he can with his nearly numb fingers.]

Th-thanks ..

[He's not without being utterly gracious, considering the circumstances and that might even be a hint of a smile on his pale blue lips. He tries to focus on the stuttering words his savior is offering, turning his slightly unfocused blue-greens eyes to him. He gives a half nod, trying his best to support himself on his own two feet as he discerns the meaning behind the stumbled words.]

C-can't .. p-promise .. b-but will .. t-try ..

[And he does .. Although Alex has never been to the infirmary, so much as having heard of it .. He can only hope his mysterious savior has a better idea of its location than he does just now.

There was also the fact that he had .. well .. no clothing on. The latter is realized only through a dim moment of clarity through the fog of pain that wracks his body.]

M-might .. want to .. g-grab a t-tablecloth .. or s-something.
