Hugh gave a hearty laugh, "I'm still much older than just a lad." Hugh gave the dwarf's hand a spirited and tight shake. "I'm Hugh and I don't mind if I do oblige myself on someone else's coin." He said. 

Hugh waved to the archer and gave a thumbs up, before hearing her exchange to what the young elf had to say. After hearing her, he gave a charismatic grin. "Why not join us? You're paying for the grub!" He wished to be on good terms with the only other human in the group. She seemed amiable enough.

He hadn't caught what the elf had said but he doubted he would have liked it. Nonetheless, he would welcome him to the group. Had nothing better to do anyways. A thousand gold coins was on the line with this group, and he intended to make good on the coin.
