"Hold still, you'll hurt yourself worse! We're coming!" Horvath can bellow pretty well himself, with his barrel chest and deep rolling voice, but there's no guarantee that the stranger is in any mood to listen. That he might be threatening the integrity of the whole building isn't truly at the top of Horvath's mind, but it's somewhere on a list of worries. Right now, he's focused on keeping the above-ground parts of the structure stable, and he sort of hopes that will keep the parts below ground safe enough, but he's not an architect.

He's focused on gently parting the rubble, trying to unbury the stranger from the top down, because that's a lot safer than tunneling. Unfortunately it also takes longer, too. He's also too busy working at it to spare more than those few words for comfort, and the way the person's struggles are shifting things just makes his job harder.

Poor Danny is just going to have to look out for himself.
