[So he hates you. A lot. But he also lives in one of the forest cabins. So when you become aforementioned insect and he, coincidentally, takes all your powers, isn't it so convenient that he just happens to be there before you're about to get murdered by monsters? Even tho he hates you, he'll want to help--
... Except he's not quite feeling himself, not just physically but a little emotionally, too. Almost as if everything about him has fundamentally changed! Strange! How could that be!
In any case, when he runs over to help him out -- after a brief hesitation figuring this asshole probs knows exactly what he's doing, it's fine -- and reaches for his gun, his grip is too strong and he ends up snapping the metal in half.
