This is exactly why he did this. All of it. Asking for a moment of rest, sitting here with Roland. All because he wanted to change the other's mood around. Inigo has a hard time giving himself all the credit for this - he just thinks he managed to play his cards well in the situation, it's not like it's just because of him that Roland's mood has flipped - but he can't help but delight in the end result all the same.

Because all he wants is for Roland to not think about how not so great this mission seems so far. Or how disasterous the last one was at certain moments. He'd much rather take this. The hugs, the genuine affection. Roland just being a weak dad.

(Which is fine. Inigo, too, is a very weak son.)

Inigo smiles, almost shyly, as he lowers his head.

"That's okay." He's not sure how many stories he can remember from back then, but of course he's willing to share them with Roland. Especially since the older guy has a harder time opening up than Inigo does, so maybe it'll be easier for Roland in turn if Inigo is willing to lead the charge. "We can just do this again next mission, after all. Then you know you'll have something to look forward to when that rolls around."

All you have to do is do your best to be positive during a mission to get a cute son story in return, Roland!
