Wormwood was definitely relieved by how quickly Selby arrived on the scene, looking at first confused by the feline held in Worm's arms, before he seemed to realize that it was Moth. The lion gave a solemn nod when Selby asked if it was the more inexperienced medic of the group, and he set Moth down a bit just so that Selby could get to her more easily. When Selby checked her pulse, the chaser immediately tensed up, petrified that he would pull his paw away and sadly announce that she had just... passed away, right in his arms. Thankfully, when the older of the two medics pulled his paw away and announced that it didn't seem like anything was immediately wrong with her, and she was just passed out, Worm felt himself sigh heavily in relief. He had been petrified that he had just lost yet another family member that he would never be able to get back, and the thought of that scared him more than anything else had lately. After his very deep breath to calm himself down, he gave a grateful nod to Selby, rumbling softly as he looked down at Moth and gently touched her chest with his paw, his anxiety still pressing a weight down against his heart, "Thank you, Selby. I'm sorry for shouting, but... she just collapsed right in front of me. I was terrified that something was really wrong... I guess I'm just being paranoid." He laughed weakly a bit at this, moving his free paw up to his forehead and shaking his head.
It was only a few more moments before Moth began to stir, and Wormwood immediately perked up, his one eye widening as he looked down at her, urgently waiting to hear hear she said. When she asked what they were doing here, he laughed yet again, saying as he placed a paw against her back, helping to keep her upright, "After you came rushing out of your house, I followed you because I was worried and wanted to see if I could help, but then you just... collapsed, and transformed into this little feline form... I called Selby because I was worried something was wrong that I couldn't help with, with only my rudimentary herb knowledge... are you okay? You seem like you're hurting..." He hadn't had that much pain when he had shifted back into his lion form from when he had been a hellhound, or vice versa, so it wasn't sure if it was the shifting that had hurt her, or something from earlier. The only time he had experienced a great deal of pain related to shifting had been when he had grown his wings, but Moth's transformation had actually made it so she had lost wings rather than gained them. He supposed perhaps that could hurt just as much as the other way around, since your bones and musculature were still shifting around, but he honestly couldn't be sure either way, not without questioning it. After all, if it was pain caused by the transformation, then perhaps Selby could help out by giving Moth some sort of pain medication.
