Inigo is about to follow Tidus, but then is stopped right in his tracks by those words. It's not something he expected the other to say right now.. but then again, hasn't he already been caught by surprise by Tidus' offer? Maybe this is just the point from which everything is going to be surprising.
Maybe it's since Inigo is already emotional as hell right now, but those words tug heavily at his heartstrings anyway, despite knowing nothing else about the situation Tidus is talking about. But it's just something about Tidus saying it.. It has to be about himself, right? Or at least a situation he was close to.
After ensuring that there's no longer any tears on his face - though his eyes are still red from crying, but there's not much he can do about that - Inigo finally steps forward until he's next to the other guy rather than staring at Tidus' back, and before the other can say or do anything, Inigo grabs a hold of his hand, firmly holding it in his own.
"That's right."
Despite everything, despite the way his heart still aches right now.. Inigo manages a smile. And it's not forced, not the kind he puts up to pretend he's okay when he isn't. The pain is still evident in this one anyway, so it'd be the lamest possible coverup. But despite the pain in it, it's genuine. There's something glad about it, or at the very least grateful.
"I mean.. we're basically best buds now." Surely you qualify for that after seeing each other get stupidly emotional and then going off to nap together, right? "And it's not like there's anything out there that can separate those. Not even a dumb train."
