Without knowing it was Ethan, Hob might have thanked Loki for putting down such a monster, only to regret it later. In that way, he's glad he was mostly alone at the time. Johanna did save him from a worse fate, but he's still angry at her, despite it. He can be grateful and angry at the same time.

Hob's never seen Loki look quite so nervous, though. He nods a little, "I did see it. We spoke about what happened." Hob doesn't appear to hold any malice over the attack. "You went to see him? What happened?" Hob's voice is quietly curious.
