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

"Not entirely true," Clarus corrected as he stirred. "Prompto is often on his morning run at this time, as I imagine he might be now." He appreciated the young man's diligence, and his help with the chocobos. Astrals knew Noctis wasn't going to wake early for the morning feeding. Honestly Clarus didn't mind taking care of the prince's bird for him, but he'd never let Noct know.

"I'm not certain I ever asked, why did you learn to cook? You grew up in the Citadel with chefs on call at all hours, and it was reasonable to expect that Noctis would always have the same." They hadn't really foreseen that Noctis would ask to live among the common folk, but they weren't displeased with the decision and results.

"It still proves my point that I cook by myself," Ignis chuckles while stirring the pancake batter. By the time Prompto comes back and has a shower, Noct is somewhat awake (after being dragged out of the bed by either Prompto or Ignis) and Ignis is already done with cooking. He's glad that the guys are taking care of the birds instead of him though. In return, they can always find fresh greens for them stored in the fridge.

No, Clarus didn't ask and Ignis didn't bring it up much unless he was directly asked, like now. His lips twitch a bit, "When his Highness returned from his trip to Tenebrae, he mentioned having a dessert there that he really liked. He looked..." his stirring slowed down for a moment as memories came back, but he quickly returned to stirring, "...sad. So I thought to cheer him up by recreating the pastry he had. Unfortunately, I lacked skills in both baking and cooking. So I decided to take up cooking classes."

He grabs the napkin from nearby to wipe his hands, "I learned how to cook, I ended up enjoying it a lot, but it was only recently that I managed to actually make the dessert his Highness had. It was quite a journey."
