[ Look what just went several miles over Inigo's head. It's not even that he's feigning ignorance on purpose to try and avoid having to face this.. No, his tone sounds way too genuine for that.
He just truly is oblivious as to what she was trying to say there, despite Corrin's purposeful dry tone.

And-- well, knowing Robin, I imagine she might want to join in on that as soon as possible, wanting to help out. But we truly first have to let her rest! If everyone else isn't here, then I have to be the one to make sure she doesn't overwork herself.
[ Inigo knows it's what everyone else would want for Robin too. ]
[Oh, Inigo.] Certainly. Even I've been accused of it on occasion. I'm...trying to be better about it, though. Sometimes it's hard to see when it's you, you know? [Do you, Inigo. Do you know.]
Ah, I know the type well. Yes, it'll be important to keep her from overworking herself. Perhaps I can approach her about it next month, then. After she's had some time to rest. If she's half as good as you say though, Robin will be a real boon to our group.
[Inigo can watch Robin and Corrin can keep an eye on Inigo. He seems bad at following his own advice in some areas. Pot, kettle, you're Corrin.]
Who knows, maybe it's easier when you have good friends around?
[ He clearly does not know.
Sorry, Corrin. Your brother's retainer is a himbo. ]
If there is ever anything troubling you in this place, no matter what it is, you can tell me. You know I would never dare to judge someone as sweet as you, Corrin!
[Corrin giggles. He'll get there eventually.] That's been my experience.
[Corrin has come to accept her family has...odd tastes in retainers. Assassins, thieves, former urchins and people with no past, all working together under the Nohrian royal family. In a few occasions her siblings had even been former targets of their retainers. A himbo ain't no thing.]
I will, thank you Inigo. That's kind of you to say. And I'll be sure to give Robin my support as well. Any friend of yours is one of mine.
[ See, this is no surprise at all. Corrin responding so kindly and helpfully to his request? Exactly what Inigo expected, considering what the other has been like so far. ]
I guess this means we should keep an eye open to see if more people we know arrive, huh? With me and Robin showing up here so soon after each other, it means anything is possible.
[ Not that Inigo really wants any of his friends to get stuck here, but..
.. on the other hand, he misses them. And he misses his sister and his mother even more. ]
