It's clear that he's not attacking the boy, hopefully, but he doesn't really care, focused as he is on holding Ashton's flailing limbs and watching to make sure he doesn't bite his tongue. Conrad notices his other injuries healing up gradually, but still... Ashton is his family now. His blood. And he isn't going to let anything happen to him.]
