Lucina couldn’t help but sigh quietly at Inigo’s comment. Of course he would be threatened often… He seemed to have a tendency to hit on any girl, which could certainly get him in to trouble on a regular basis. Still, she didn’t comment on it, not wanting to put him back in his previous state of sulkiness.
Still, she felt her eyes widen as she heard him call her by her nickname, and quickly took another drink in order to hide her shock. It had been a long time since he had called her that… “Well, you know I need to be that way.” She commented, shaking her head slightly. “I also need to be a leader, and I can’t do that very well if I go out like this often.” Still, perhaps it would be a good idea for her to kick back a little bit. If she was too stressed, then she wouldn’t be able to do anything properly. Plus, she was in good company, so there was no reason that she shouldn’t simply enjoy herself for once…
"There’s really nothing special about my smile…" She mumbled. True, there was the fact that her smile seemed to motivate people whenever it happened. But that was just because she was the princess…
"I'm not saying you should go out and live it up every night," Inigo clarified, and smirked a little. "No, leave that to me." Though he certainly wasn't out chasing tavern girls all the time--only when the opportunity presented itself. And hey, Inigo thought vaguely. He had to take advantage of what this time had to offer, after all. "Just every now and then. Let your hair down a little, you know?"
He hummed a bit and took another drink, then looked back at Lucina and grinned. "Hah! My lady, you don't give yourself enough credit. Everything about..." He gestured up and down the other's body vaguely. "... you is simply fantastic. Believe me. I would know." He had had encounters with quite the plethora of women, after all.
Inigo paused for second and blinked a bit. Ah... So perhaps the ale was finally getting to him. This dawned on him in the distant way that drunkenness does, and he had the passing thought that he ought to have been choosing his words more carefully. This was Lucina he was talking to, after all. His eyes narrowed a little as he gazed at her, and then slid away. Inigo's cheeks heated up a little more, though it was probably unnoticeable thanks the to flush of alcohol.
Aah, he wasn't trying to hit on her, right? He was just being... honest...
