"T-Torture?! I did not boil you...! Gah, how is this my...?" Which is what Roland says despite the chaos, the wailing from Inigo hitting him hard from one side while the other is bombarded with Tidus's mudslinging against his character. Though he will admit to the higgledies maybe, going just a tad bit too far...But how could Tidus know for sure that fall wouldn't have broken his spine anyway? Roland's heard of accidents like that before, and at a certain height, water becomes tougher than concrete - !

When Inigo pleads for them to stop, Roland counts to ten very slowly, inwardly. There was no winning on this, and perhaps might not even be the point. Ten, nine, eight, seven...He takes in a deep, calming breath, puts both his hands on his hips. Six, five, four, three...It doesn't matter! It doesn't matter. Even if this all started because Tidus decided that throwing a tantrum under the WATER was a good idea!! At the three, two, one count; Roland relents, makes a gesture signaling he's waving the white flag, and moves instead to rub the back of his neck.

"Alright, I'm sorry I asked Bambosh to warm up the water. But I promise you, I just wanted you both up on the surface." That is his meet me in the middle tone, and he will wait for maybe an apology from Tidus...? If it...ever comes....

Any day now...?
