Week 4
[After everything that this case was, you probably don't want to deal with anything else. But you wake up on Sunday, just like before, with some new memories, and some new stores to check out.
Let's see what this week brings.]
Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday
(( Don't forget to check in, and check your memory regains! You can also stop by the gacha machine and Xander's office hours. ))

[ ok ]
He would've complained at me until I did it. Loudly. Would've probably kicked my ass in training, too.

[Cup noodle is cup noodle, bro.]

[ mmmyep. ]

[E G G.]
W-what kind of world do you live in?!

[...]
Are all of your friends weirdly particular about food?
[Because that's two now.]
no subject
[ He shrugs, looking at the noodles. ]
Honestly, I didn't do it just because of the egg. I did it because Gladio's been there for me, protecting me. He doesn't take my shit, and he doesn't pull punches. He's one of my best friends.
So... yeah, I'd climb a mountain for the idiot to make sure he gets the perfect Cup Noodle.
no subject
...yeah, I get that.
[Doing something stupid for a friend...]
The city I was living in-- is in bad shape. My friend and I went through a lot to be able to get out of there while we were being pursued. But then, when it was over... she decided she wanted to help fix things. I couldn't believe what she was saying.
...I didn't want to, but I knew I couldn't leave her alone.
Th-that's why we can't die here. Y-you have to go back to them-- to Ignis, Prompto and Gladio. And I... I have to make sure Komaru's doing okay.
no subject
[ ...
Noctis's expression turns... different. It's more somber than she's seen before. ]
I'm not too worried about getting back to them.
no subject
[She acts like it's an obvious inconvenience that Komaru should be grateful to have her accept. But it's just that-- an act.
...ah. That immediately gives her a bad feeling. She doesn't know what to expect only that it hurts her just to know it's coming.]
...why... do you say that...?
no subject
It's pretty heavy. You sure you want to hear about it?

no subject
Let's find somewhere to sit down, alright?
no subject
[They can make themselves comfy in the kitchen of Soup. There's probably somewhere to sit around there.]
no subject
You know I'm a king, yeah? My world... there's something called Starscourge. It's a pretty serious thing, and it's been around for a while. A long while. Anyway... They said there was to be a Chosen King who could "purge our star of its scourge."
I'm the Chosen King. And I managed to do it. I managed to bring back the light, but at a cost: my life.
I'm dead back home, so I don't really have much to go back to. But as long as the guys and the rest of the world are alright, then that's just fine with me.
no subject
[Of course she'd never heard of it. It was certainly the kind of name that was chosen to inspire fear if you asked her. But it sounded fantastical to her.]
So... you sacrificed yourself to get rid of this... Starscourge, whatever it is?
[Lucis Caelum might as well stand for "selfless idiot attracting misfortune".]
...but... if you survive... you could have a second chance. [...] I can't believe I'm saying this, but... these assholes keep trying to cheat death, dragging people back into their stupid games... maybe... something good could come out of the damn thing...
no subject
[ .... ]
A second chance, huh. It's tempting, but... I'm worried if I go back, all that might be undone. It's probably ridiculous, but it's not exactly something I want to risk.
It's a sacrifice for a reason. And I don't have any regrets. The guys-- they know that, too.
no subject
[Her heart falls heavy. She's silent for a short, uncomfortable moment while that sinks in. She gets it. Even if he did show up, what kind of life is left for him there? It's a lot of uncertainty.
She bites her lip hard and--]
You... could come with me to Towa City.
[As soon as it's out her mouth she almost looks like she regrets blurting it out but--]
...i-it's nothing special, and you probably wouldn't want to but... you... could... if you wanted to.
no subject
He looks at her, and truthfully? He's stunned. But... they had been close, hadn't they? Or he remembers starting to get close to her. For several moments he's unsure what to say, because words fail him too many times.
Just spit it out. ]
... Haha. I'd like that a lot, Touko. I just have a question.
no subject
...sure. What is it?
