Took a video of this happening in Lilys Driftwood Bay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuJo1W66YhE
I know I have seen this sort of thing a lot... In other shows.... Though I cannot remember particular examples.
In this case
nonna: Lord Stag needs a bed for the night
Salty "well, I'm not really, uh..." (Obviously incomfortable with being expected to help, Stag has a history of being rude, cheated during a boat race, too elitist to take pictures with others)
and now the trope I am trying to identify..
Stag "say no more. You like your privacy I understand. I'll just go find a nice warm leaf to sleep under. Might be a tad chilly but I'll survive"
Lily elbows Salty (do we have a Suggestive Elbow or Prompting Elbow trope?) And he agrees and Stag switches from pseudopolite to demanding of an ocean view, a bell to ring in case he needs Salty to do something, etc.
Sure there are many tropes at work here but just this particular situation... It feels very familiar.
Sarcastic Guilting maybe?
