Now Roland is pointing, Inigo is at the very least brave enough to take a look behind him.

And he immediately kind of wishes he didn't. Despite the fact that they're away from it now, just the sight of all those things flying and crawling around is just too much. He can feel a chill running down his spine at it. Ugh. Why couldn't it just be rats, huh? Or if people knew those cockroaches were down here as well, they should have told them! This whole job was full of false advertising!

But when Roland speaks up, Inigo's attention turns away from the bugs and instead fully towards the other guy. Especially when he hears what Roland says. It makes Inigo frown slightly, putting a hand up on Roland's shoulder. (Inigo seems much less out of breath himself - you don't survive an apocalypse for years without great stamina.)

"Hey, why are you saying it's your mistake? You didn't do anything wrong!"

Silly dad, blaming himself unjustly for things is Inigo's thing already! He won't allow anyone else to do it!

"You protected me back there! If anything, I should have been thanking you. I would have been toast if you weren't there with me."
