Here I thought you were into us getting along. Calling him a tough guy in a fight's just asking me to start smth
[ You know. Like a catty gossip train. Because he is a tough guy, isn't he? Hugely. ]
Cool lmk when you're down. Could be back on the ship if you don't want glass in your shoulder, probably smarter tbh. Which means I've got time to grill you on the last part
You told me to up the ante from a dragon. Spill. What's boring/exciting?
He IS a tough guy in a fight He took on like 3 of those barren-racers like Fully protected me to do it too at the expense of his own body So yeah I want you two to get along But if you're into fighting each other then go for it I only made it my business before bc you were basically wrestling in front of me
I'm agreeing with that date/time though bc it's too hot to move
My dream mirage rn would be a cold barren tundra But I'm in a log cabin with a crackling fire and I'm looking out at the snow And it's cozy inside but if I got too warm I could open the window or step outside and smell the crispy air
[ That shuts him up. Throwaway jokes β always with a sprinkle of truth in them, thanks to his own prejudice β are firmly corrected by Jonas. And it isn't like it's hard for him to believe. Jonas's assessment of Cain as someone who's risked a lot to help him aligns with his own experience... even if Noctis also has the added memory of staring down his knife after a scant few traded punches. It's complicated, but also not in a way he finds jarring or unfamiliar. ]
He did all that for you huh. Guess I'll give him a break this time in this convo he'll never see
When you said what's more interesting than a dragon I didn't think you meant like that. We're just wishing for stuff?
The cabin sounds pretty cool. You got good food in there?
I asked what your mirage would be and you said dragon Then you wanted me to up the ante bc I dissed the dragon And I said anything I thought of would be boring That means I was thinking up another mirage that could be cool I WANT A CABIN IN THE SNOW
( HMPH!!!!! )
You can only have snacks in the cabin if you take back your attitude about it Then you might be able to join me
Scroll up and reread where I said it sounded cool, idiot
Tho who says I want to go to your cabin? Maybe I've got my own places I want to go to. Yk places where I can go outside and move around w/o freezing to death
That's why the quality of food really matters here
ik you did but it could've been sarcastic I was covering my bases FYI it's the best food we could ever dream of and there are like all you can eat burgers
[ Does he want to talk about it? It's hard now, not knowing what condition it's in. Not knowing who walks the halls that belonged to his family and the loyal friends they'd kept for centuries. But to shy away from it is to act like it won't be his again, and soon. ]
The place I grew up. The Citadel
Tallest building in the city, and my room was so high up it was like all I could see when I looked outside at night was stars. Nothing in the way
Lol really? That's like such a holdable memory too, maybe you can go get it when you get home There's plenty of stars to look at until then though
( Such a simple fact, yet it's one Jonas commits to memory. He'd like to do something with that, though he doesn't know what. It just seems as though Noctis deserves it.
They've been through a lot, haven't they? He wishes that weren't the case. )
My reasoning is what's boring fyi It's just not a desert When you're hot you can never really cool down all the way But when you're cold you can always bundle up
Bring it on, I may or may not ball up and cry in the snow
( then... SNEAK ATTACK HIM...
There's something sweet about this conversation, and it carries forward a natural flush that differentiates itself from his tanning sunburn. He missed this, or... did he ever really understand what it was like?
Having a friend. )
So you're a night owl (this is a NOCTurnal bird btw)? That's cool man we should go up together sometime We could bring blankies and snacks and like name weird constellations no one in the entire universe has ever seen before
It's not really my thing bc I used to totally get vertigo every time I stared up too long But it's been a while since then so maybe I'm good now
Literally what do you think I've been doing till now I've been hoarding food like a hibernating animal or something man seriously It wasn't hard People keep offering me granola bars and crap But on the ship I actually took a couple of bags of chips lol

Home, obviously

( With an achy heart, he asks his next question. )
Where specifically back home?
Like there has to be one important place
First thing you think of

I had a book. Some old beat up astronomy one. Or maybe it wasn't beat up before I got it idk
Pretty much memorized all of it

Ignis wouldn't let that memory fade away without notice. ]
Yeah no kidding, the view from the deck was smth I've never seen before
[ He wants to share it with someone. No fights, no arguments, just appreciation for the stars. ]
Yk when we end up on a frozen planet next I'm gonna remind you of this lol
no subject
I felt different when I actually went up there
It was really amazing
But I stand by what I said
I'd seriously rather be colder
Plus I'd get to pelt you with snowballs
no subject
[ ... ]
Noctis means night yk. Idk, it's funny. Always felt like I knew that even before I did
[ Is he talking too much? Probably. Definitely about himself, and it's starting to make him feel silly. ]
First snowball that comes at me you're getting 10 more to the face. Try me

I am hyperaware of how terminal this is, thank you so much
It doesn't help that everyone around me is also lame and I just perpetually feed off it
You serious though?
How about like when we get back to the mothership??
Like fr get back, not "quickly go do 50 squats and then leave" get back
no subject
[ I know exactly who you mean, and I'm sure no one else could possibly be included. ]
If I say yes are you going to be the one bringing the goods?
no subject
I can totally bring the goods
I have it all already I just need to get back to the ship
no subject
Lol doubt
no subject
I've been hoarding food like a hibernating animal or something man seriously
