"They're still missions, Tidus."

Maybe it's not exactly the right response to give when Inigo knows the other is just trying to be all light and playful about this - but the guilt of having basically ran away, even if it's just for a little bit, just weighs too heavy on Inigo's stomach for him to say anything else. For him to even entertain the idea of doing this more often.

If he's not out there saving people during missions, or trying to figure a way for people to return to their own worlds and to save the people they lost out there to the void - then what good is he? There's no way he can just think of doing fun things during moments where he's supposed to be working.

No matter how much he'd rather just be spending time with Tidus like this.

It's why those words don't sound scolding in any way. Instead they sound kind of.. sad, really. If not just in the wake of the emotions that completely overtook Inigo upon seeing just way too much of that distortion with the living corpses.
