Oh, not on his watch. The tangle of where the blond ends and where Esteban begins is a smidge-- blurred-- and the half-elf has to breathe deeply again to drag all of his thoughts away, and back here while still keeping a watch over his friends. He did slip up, and though there's a wave of overwhelming concern for Tidus-- 'Are you okay?'-- there's also relief and gratitude.
It's-- he can't tell it in words. That understanding how much Esteban cares about everyone, something that he thinks is echoed in Tidus as well. He tries again to make sure he's not tangling too deeply, refocuses on their goals, on keeping his companions safe and properly anchored. When they get back, Esteban is going to drop all of his points into the voting system to try and get the pool that much quicker.
He's really looking forwards to play blitzball with him. He already had been but-- even more so now.
And then snickers as he mentions his common accent is horrible. Which he takes. From Esteban. 'There's a pattern to it, Sunshine!' But Esteban is not about to explain it now, gathering the bottle close again, like it might be the lighthouse to show them the way back.
