Crystalline Chill
Who: Residents of house C-01 and friends!
When: All throughout May, see prompts and individual threads
Where: House C-01
What: Monthly catchall for the XV House shenanigans
Warnings/Notes: There's likely going to be spoilers for Kingsglaive and the main game up to Chapter 13 somewhere in the comments.
A. Sometimes you just want to ride...
Late in the morning of the 1st, there is a low purring sound of an engine going down the street. One that wasn't accustomed to travel aside by foot or chocobo claw. Yet, somehow, a certain man manages not to clip a single thing. And it sits there, in front of House C-01, black, shiny, and very much a wonder to a few moogles. Especially since the convertible's roof is airship-grade plexiglass.
B. [Insert "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" joke here]
There was one upside to living with the once-deceased leader of the Crownsguard, and that was one didn't have to go far for a training enthusiast. There was also one downside to this: not having to go far for a training enthusiast. It's the crack of dawn when the nice little symphony of insects and kwehs get interrupted by the sounds of wooden weapons clashing and spells being practiced.
Rest in pieces, light sleepers. They apologize in advance.
C. That's it!
Of course, no one can train or go through the day on no fuel. And one person in particular has taken upon himself to at least ensure a few others can eventually cook eggs without burning them. The real question is: Will Ignis come up with a new recipeh involving that jar of kupo nut butter?
D. I want to ride my chocobo all day~
If anyone is surprised at the fact that there are two or three (depending on the date because Chocobo Eater event) lovely birds, then they clearly don't understand at least 50% of the household's love for the magnificent creatures. The black one in particular seems to be particularly happy with their nice little stack of shiny objects...
There may or may not be a pair of glasses on the top of that pile. Sorry, Specs.
E. Hold my Ebony

"I cannot tell which one would be worse," Ignis says with a smile. Seriously, both topics are really important to Prompto. And Ignis can understand that- cooking is pretty important to Ignis.
He does wish, however, to be able to translate what Noctis is thinking when he gives him somewhat sad, worried look. And he wants to ask, he really does but- he'll trust Noct to come to him it really is something problematic.
(Even though he didn't do it last night when he had nightmares)no subject
Noct takes the cue to leave the kitchen with a nod, already turning on his heels and heading for the couch. Wondering if he should even say anything about what's going on in his head, or let Ignis keep going without knowing the full extent of Ardyn's mindgames.
(Look he just didn't want to accidentally wake up Nyx; who knows what the Glaive would do.)no subject
"I wonder if there is a way to get his camera back." Is there a shop they could acquire one for him? It probably won't be as good as the one he has back home but it would be something. And maybe it would cheer him up a bit. Their friend looked really down these last few days.
Somewhere vaguely above them, on the second floor, Ebony's singing "Little Miss Muffet"
no subject
"Well, they found the Regalia out there. Never know. It could show up." He has no idea if there is a shop like that or not. They don't exactly seem to be very high tech here. Maybe in Von Oktavia? It's worth a look sometime.
Oh, Ebony...
Noctis pauses, before admitting. "You know... I was kind of surprised when Biggs called me saying they found it in the Dream Width. Almost expected to see it like it was when I last...forcibly parked it." It was a painful thing to remember, having to say goodbye to that trusty steed. "And before you ask: no, I didn't wreck it. It took a hit or two when we entered Gralea."
Okay, maybe a bit more than 'two'.
no subject
But they will definitively look into finding a camera for Prompto. Ignis will keep that in mind when they visit more technically advanced place.
Ebony changes tune to "itsy bitsy spider". Ignis looks at the ceiling and supplies:"He does that when he's dusting cobwebs."
"...I see. It's alright, I don't blame you. I know you wouldn't willingly damage her." The car is too precious to Noct. A safe haven from everyone and everything. A gift from his Majesty.
no subject
Noctis looks up at the ceiling when the tune changes and he just- shakes his head. "Whatever keeps him occupied, I guess."
At least it doesn't involve drawers. Or cooking utensils.
He sighs, nodding. Of course he wouldn't. In fact, he's actually been more careful with it.
And still with the bad driving ribbing."Still, flight?"Of all the things to be hung up on, it hat to be the fact the car can fly.
no subject
Like glasses stealing.
"Hmm," Ignis crosses his hands, leaned back. "The land here is scattered too much. The air transportation seems to be the fastest way of reaching distant towns." Sadly, they can't drive from place to place like they are used to so...
"But I am sure you can learn it. If you put your mind to it."
no subject
After a moment of calming down, though, he nods.
"Yeah. Thought so, too." Whiiich is why it's highly likely that Clarus will potentially scream when he mentions: "Which is why I'm considering studying for a piloting license." Ut's not the same controls, sure, but the experience will likely be worth it in the long run.
no subject
It is a bit of a frightening thought that Noct is learning to pilot a ship but he can't deny that it won't be useful.
"Well, just be careful. Driving in the air is completely different from the ground." There's probably less sense of control. He frowns: "Are you going to be alright though? You don't really like heights."
no subject
"I will be. Besides, I get the feeling at least three people in this house would kick my ass if I wasn't." He smiles ruefully. Yet the look in his eyes likely gave away how dead serious he was. "It's not the height, it's the fall."
no subject
"All I can offer is to be very careful with the ship and informed at all times. Unfortunately, I have no experience about this."
no subject
"I won't be flying right away, you know." Fortunately, if he's accepted, he'll start out as an apprentice. Not actually flying for months while he studies for the airship license. Regardless, he appreciates the attempt. That smile of his becoming slightly more sincere.
no subject
"Of course. You'll need to gain some experience before you take the wheel. But, you learn fast. I am sure you will have no problem with it." Ignis returns the smile with a nod.
no subject
"Thanks, Iggy." And he meant it. No sense of snark or anything.
no subject
"We will be counting on you," Ignis says, smiling.
no subject
Some of the tension seems to drain out of him with that smile, as he holds up an arm for a fistbump. "Gotcha."
no subject
With nothing else to add and a smile, Ignis returns the fistbump.
