[ This whole situation feels so wrong. That look earlier on Roland's face, the way he's completely shutting down Tidus's offer to help heal him, despite there not being any clear or obvious reason for it. The way he's shutting down any and all of their inquiries, just putting on that calm face again, telling them they have to go.
And maybe Roland is right. No, he's probably right, considering standing around here talking is just about the worst possible thing to do when there's danger lurking around, when there are people seemingly out to hurt anyone who gets in their way.
But still-- ]
You can't do this.
[ There's obvious desperation in Inigo's voice that he doesn't bother to hide. ]
You can't just-- just pretend nothing is wrong when a moment ago you were looking terrified! [ Maybe it's hypocritical for Inigo of all people to say that, but he's been trying. It may not always succeed, but he's been trying to share more and more of his actual worries with Tidus and Roland lately, so maybe that's why it extra hurts to get shut right out when he's more worried about Roland than he's ever been.
Inigo glances over at Tidus, the desperation now visible in his face as well, hoping the other will agree with him - or at least understand. They can't just let Roland do this, right? Pretend everything is right when it obviously isn't? They both know the guy - he'd carry it with him to his grave, constantly worrying about it, even if he wouldn't mention it out loud.
His gaze turns back to Roland. Still not stepping closer to keep giving him space in case he needs it, but not shutting up just yet. ]
You can't just shut down Tidus's offer to help without any explanation! How would you feel if we were the ones doing that to you, huh?! If you found either of us by ourselves like that, you'd want to know what was up too! [ Maybe he's getting a little too worked up, but he can't help it. Inigo has been so incredibly worried about the other for the past hour or so, and now it's all just spilling over, the tears he was barely trying to contain and stop a moment ago now starting to flow again. ]
