It's tempting to just ignore it. To make another excuse, laugh, and get away from here as quickly as possible. It's what every single inch of Inigo's instinct yells at him right now.

But that isn't right. It wouldn't be fair towards Senku, not when the other is asking such a genuine and almost oddly vulnerable question. And Inigo is well aware that if he'd escape now for the sake of burying his feelings, he'd just feel incredibly guilty about this.

So he doesn't leave yet. But he doesn't answer right away either, since it's so difficult to answer. What can he say here, how can he explain this without giving away every single one of his pathetic feelings?

"I.." He starts, before seemingly deciding that whatever he had in his head wasn't good enough. Inigo shakes his head and starts again. "You didn't do anything, Senku. It's fine."

Except everything is the opposite of fine with Inigo right now.

"I'm just.. sorry. I know I'm very sappy, and that other people aren't, and that I-- I should stop pushing myself onto others." (Talking outside of Tidus's door every day despite the other only wanting some space--)

Despite what his mind tells him, he's just rambling now, throwing everything out there that he wanted to keep to himself. "I'm very sorry if I made you uncomfortable."
