[kittycaterer]

is there someone else you wanna bring?
i haven't exactly made any other close friends yet

[mercurio]

[he needs to list this]

1. it's for your birthday the friendversary's just a random thing
2. would it be more expensive if more people came
3. just the two of us is kinda... uh.. well....you know

[kittycaterer]

1. don't care
2. also don't care/doesn't matter
3. ...what?

[mercurio]

dude...
wouldn't you wanna invite like
doctor lutece? i mean she's a family friend.. um
idk whoever else you feel comfortable with from now until then

[mercurio]

also this is kinda bothering me

[mercurio]

you know i'm not friends with you because of your money right

[mercurio]

i know you're loaded and i don't want you or anyone to think that the only reason i stuck by your side was because i expect some monetary gain
or that i just hang out with you because you can pay for things
right??

[kittycaterer]

[ What in the world... ]

dude
dr. lutece is mostly a friend of my old man
i mean yeah, we've been talking more but
wait
prompto
i never thought that at all? where is this coming from

[mercurio]

.....
noct i think anyone can look at me and tell that i don't have money
my bank account's a sad thing and i scrape by real bad most months
these past few weeks you've paid for most of the meals we share and like
i feel guilty i guess
i.. wanna be on the same level as you in this friendship
so when you suggest this dream vacation scenario that probably costs more than everything i own put together
i can't help thinking of a hundred million different ways of making it up to you
so you gotta be honest with me okay

[kittycaterer]

[ Crap he...

He had no idea it would make Prompto uncomfortable. Yeah, he's seen how Prompto lives and that sort of sparked a desire to pay for things for him. Noctis hasn't told Prompto that he hired a locksmith to come fix his door this week because he didn't want to overstep but...

This guy took care of him. Stayed by his side in the hospital. Noctis feels this sense of responsibility here to express his gratitude, because he's already been told flat-out by doctors that he shouldn't be alive. And Prompto played a huge part in his survival. Noctis stares at his phone because he doesn't know how to deal with this really. Nor does he want Prompto to get the wrong idea or feel guilty. ]

im doing it because I want to, prompto
i don't expect anything in return but uh
if you want me to stop I can
not trying to make things weird

[mercurio]

ugh /i'm/ the one making it weird
i just want you to know how i feel okay!
so... so it helps me out too to know that you know

next time we order in let me pay for half of the amount okay?

[kittycaterer]

can i get real with you for a second?

[mercurio]

you don't gotta ask

[kittycaterer]

without getting into it over text
i like paying for things for you
its
idk
out of a pretty specific principal that i do it
im happy to

[mercurio]

... is there any way that i can make it up to you?

[kittycaterer]

you already did

[mercurio]

noct...........

[kittycaterer]

like i said
if its really making you uncomfortable, i can stop

[mercurio]

[but...]

does it really make you happy?

[kittycaterer]

yeah
i owe you a lot, you know

[mercurio]

i don't know that i've done anything to have you owing me this much but..
if it continues to make you happy then i can be okay with it
just don't go overboard or anything
it's still good old me in the end

...i bought some cheesecake by the way
my stomach's gonna kill me but you mind sharing?

[kittycaterer]

lol
glutton for punishment, huh?
yeah get over here

your uh
your pjs are still here btw
i washed them

[mercurio]

doing my laundry? dude i'm gonna start getting the wrong idea here
awfully domestic of you
but i guess it helps me with asking if you mind if i stay the night
kinda fucking tired right now

[kittycaterer]

[ No?!?!?!?! ]

or maybe it's because they stunk
but ok think what you want buddy
yeah i kind of expected you to stay

[mercurio]

i smell delightful dude
i'll be there soon
