Noctis Caelum

"You got Noctis. Do the thing."

VOICE | TEXT | VIDEO | ACTION

[he smiles despite himself, feeling a bit braver in all this]

Noct...

[it's so similar to the conversation they had before, but so different, too. and it reminds prompto that it still is the same person. noctis wouldn't have a change of heart just because he didn't remember him.]

[it's exactly the same as before when they first met, just with slightly different meeting circumstances.]

I'm... [yet he gets a bit emotional again, voice wet] I'm stupidly happy that you're back. Every morning... when I remember I don't have to go to the hospital to visit you, because I can just go and hang out with you... It's the best shit ever.

[ He wouldn't have been able to do this as easily face to face. Noctis feels slightly awkward, yes, but it seems to get easier and easier as time passes. Noctis doesn't know the entirety of what Prompto has gone through, not first-hand, but he is happy to listen. Especially to the same guy who sat next to him, unconscious and unresponsive, just to speak to him and keep him company. ]

Yeah.

[ Noctis smiles a touch, and the expression is obvious in his tone. ]

Best shit ever.

[ A beat. ]

Why aren't we hanging out now?

Uh-- uh!

[he stammers, because he's just sitting down on his bed in his room/apartment hanging out by himself]

I thought you'd want to chill by yourself a bit! Not that I really got much going at the moment...

Do you want me to head over?

What do you think I do when you're not around? Be productive?

I literally just woke up.

[ He's been sleeping all day. Go figure. ]

Yeah. Come over.

Dude. I went on a jog, ate breakfast, dropped by the hardware store, bought myself a bathing suit already. And you've been sleeping?

Damn.

[he's laughing]

I'll get lunch! You got a bathing suit by the way? Prime time to go to the beach this week!

Good for you, over-achiever.

[ some of us LIKE to get our sleep, okay?

At the question, Noctis has to think on that. Not as to whether or not he has a swimsuit (because he doesn't), but whether or not this means Prompto is going to make him go out on a public beach and swim. Which is not his thing. Nor is the sun his thing. ]

N...o....
