[ Despite the fact that an attempt at making a bracelet obviously failed, there's no sign of recognition of that fact on Inigo's face. Instead he just smiles at Roland - widely, eagerly - as he looks at it. ]
Oh, it's so pretty! Can I try it on?
[ He reaches out for it, and if Roland will let him, he carefully takes it out of the other guy's grip and puts it around his neck. There's no hesitation about it, no embarrassment whatsoever. Just a big smile, like this was the intended outcome all along.
Inigo moves to rest his hands on his knees, but the smile doesn't fade, even as he speaks. ] I don't know how good I really am at that, but.. I'd hate to question your judgement. And if I could do as much for you, I'd just be glad.
[ Because even with Roland as his paternal figure here, Inigo would feel awful only receiving and taking from the other. He feels much better giving something in return, even if it's just taking out the old compliment cannon every now and then to make sure Roland knows he's as great as he is. ]
Maybe that's just how you ought to see this whole outing, you know? Not just the island here, I mean, but everything when it comes to the train. A chance to meet now people, to see new perspectives.
