[hand held, prompto hops off the step where their seats were and then literally hops out the bus's door at the back, following after noctis. his hands are swinging, the sunshine in his step rivaling the sunshine above them.]
[of course he's ready]
Do you think there were also chocobos in Insomnia? Wonder what kinda things we did when we hung out.
Do you remember if you weren't allowed to certain places 'cause of your status?
[ Noctis has his lopsided smile glued in place, holding Prompto's hand and allowing their arms to swing the whole way. By the way he expresses himself, he looks more endeared to Prompto's excitement than mirroring it.
He can already smell the chocobos from here. Not too far of a walk now. ]
Actually, the only memories of Insomnia I have are after the fall. I don't even know what it looked like before.
I guess if I was allowed to travel so far outside it, I'd have been allowed around town as I wanted.
Seemed kinda like a modern day monarchy. Prince Charles has been doing what he wants for ages.
[prompto snorts at that, letting go of noctis's hand to instead put his hand inside one of his trouser's back pockets. a nice feel of ass in the palm of his hand.]
I wish you'd remember Insomnia. The sky glittered. It was a lot cleaner than here, and a lot prettier. The big buildings were made mostly of glass. There was tons of big screens and it was super modern looking.
[ No disagreement there. Noctis never really knows what he's talking about. There's the slightest jolt when he feels Prompto's hand stuff itself into his back pocket, which is a surprise. Prompto really must have gotten past his discomfort with PDA...
Oh well. He won't question it. Noctis returns the gesture and does much the same, hand directly on his boyfriend's behind.
His eyes are still forward, and he looks contemplative when the discussion of Insomnia comes up. He tries picturing it not in ruin. It's hard, because there was barely anything left in the memories he's had.
Noctis finds himself curious. ]
Did... You ever see the Citadel? Before it was destroyed.
[bad territory to go into on their date. prompto pauses, removes his hand from noctis's pocket, and stands in front of his boyfriend. they're right at the entrance of the petting zoo--and thus the chocobo ranch inside. he puts his hands at either side of noctis's jawline and presses a kiss to his lips; slow, gentle.]
[when he pulls back he offers a small smile]
Let's focus on happier things for now, yeah? Hopefully you remember about the chocobo post that I remember from Eos. I think I loved that place.
[his hands move down to hold onto noctis's own, swinging their hands a little]
...as curious as I am about our home away from the now, I don't want you feeling down.
[ Noctis halts as Prompto abruptly walks in front of him, brows raised and expression curious. He’s about to question it, but he’s stopped prematurely by a sweet kiss. It takes him a moment to return the gesture, but he ultimately falls into it, stopped when Prompto speaks.
Oh... That did get a little dark for a second didn’t it? ]
Ah.
Yeah. Guess you’re right.
[ No sad crap. He lets his hands get swung a little and smiles. ]
Okay. Let’s talk a walk down unfamiliar-memory lane.
[prompto likes that, when noctis smiles that soft, slanted smile of his. he kisses it again--for good measure.]
Yeah, let's.
[after buying their entrance tickets, prompto immediately leads them towards the chocobo ranch. he wants to get in the pen to touch the chocobos and pet them, but they've got to wait in line. he's excitedly hopping on his feet so he can see which of the chocobos are up and about]

[...not that he remembers anyway]
[does that mean he wasn't there to see insomnia and the citadel like noctis remembers seeing it?]
no subject
I've only ever seen it in shambles.
The Citadel was where that other me had lived. Any time I've ever walked through those memories, it's just been sad.
Like there was no hope for it.

I don't think I see any chicks yet...
