He stifles the start of what sounds almost like a real peal of laughter, but it stops there. Roland looking on, as if completely enthralled with amusement between the two of them talking about how putting flowers in his hair might be of some great offense to him.
"If I didn't want it, I wouldn't have asked. Don't worry." He says, not chiding but with a lightness to him, a slight shrug that it was really no big deal. He'll shoot Tidus a look too. "And I'm offended you don't already think I'm pretty everyday, without the flowers in my hair. That hurts." Not as dry as he might want that quip, or what might have worked better for the right effect, but Roland is unnaturally easy to please today, gifts perhaps softening him up in ways even he didn't expect.
However, when he hands Inigo the flowers, he realizes that he can't use up all of them, and instead hands the boy only the necklace while the two bracelets are kept back in the Arms Band in a hurry. Those were special. The necklace, at least, was a byproduct of Roland's first failed attempt. That, Inigo could do with as he pleased.
