Inigo laughs, shaking his head. "I was just saying!"
He can't help but add as much in the face of what he's staring at right now. Esteban looking completely baffled by what he was just saying, like Inigo suddenly started speaking a different language altogether. What Esteban says though shows that the other definitely did hear what Inigo just said - it's just that he's surprised by it.
Which he shouldn't have to be, Inigo thinks. Esteban's kindness is as clear as day to anyone. It shows even in what the other says after the confusion fades a little. Acting like this is all natural, even though there are plenty of people with friends who still opt to be cruel to others.
His smile turns into something faintly more teasing. Maybe he's just glad to have turned these tables around a little for once, since usually Inigo is the one getting teased and flustered..
"Or are you saying I'm not allowed to give you compliments?" The teasing tone is even audible in his voice.
