This was quite the plot twist because usually when social interactions went sour he not only assumed it was his fault, but it usually was. He just didn't seem to have the ability to watch his words before he hurt someone's feelings, or came across the wrong way. Other people's perceptions seemed to be a bit beyond him.

"Huh..." It had actually nothing to do with him? That was new, although Senku didn't think he helped much since Inigo had run off on him, and told him off for being too blunt.

"Ugh, don't bother, I wasn't ever..." He waved his hand. Mad at Inigo, or upset, he was just confused which was pretty standard.

Then...he doesn't need to bribe him does he?

He moved around to sit then with Inigo if he liked.
