Inigo squeezes her a little again as she cuts herself off.

"I'm sorry, Nita," he says. It's relatively soft, his voice quiet. Even though they're in one of the quiet rooms, it's like he wants to make even more sure that this is just for her ears.

It sounds so genuine too, like he's not just saying it just because. He really is sorry for her. It sounds like an all around shitty situation, and Inigo knows that if he were in her shoes, he'd be mad at himself too.

"I know there's a lot I could say. Like that mistakes are only human, that this happens to all of us.. But I know that doesn't make anything better when you've lost a friend." Nothing could make that better. Other than perhaps the certainty of knowing that friend will be back, but how could Inigo give her that? "Instead I'll ask you.. Is there anything you need? Even if it's just something as simple as staying here with you for now, I can do that much."

He smiles. Regardless of whether or not she can see it in the hug with her head lowered like that, it instinctively appears on Inigo's face. It's just that fond feeling he gets whenever he's around Nita - a feeling no knowledge of an anger outburst could ruin.

"You know I would do anything for you, right?"
