[The lights really had been getting to him, here especially. Ardyn hadn't found them painfully oppressive, but now that they'd seemingly been brought down to a lower level the difference was notable. Strange--and a little concerning--but it was low on the list of problems to confront lately.]

[He watched Junpei warp around leaving gradually dissipating trails of magenta crisscrossing around the garden, an oddly sincere smile on his face. There was something very nostalgic to this--for just a moment Ardyn was back in an Insomnia long past, teaching his little brother to warp from the courtyard to the Citadel's steps.]

[When Junpei ran out of MP finally stopped under a tree, Ardyn walked over and sat down next to him with a pigeon settled on his shoulder.]

You've taken to that quickly. Usually it's far easier to warp after a blade stuck in a wall or the ground, but you seem to be having less and less trouble with the midair variant.
