[He takes the pen and just chucks it across the room, thinking really hard about catching it. There's a "blip" and then Caleb is in the living room, holding the pen and staring at it in awe.]
As far as you can throw whatever you’re using as a focus. I use either fishing lures or my sword most often.
[Oh, right.]
Speaking of—you’ve got access to the Armiger now on top of that. Ignis would probably tell you not to use the power of kings as a dumpster, but he’s no better than me, sticking a whole set of kitchen knives in there. [He pauses, then says:] Just…don’t touch the Royal Arms. They’re powerful, but using them hurts me, and I—don’t want to risk them hurting you.
Sometimes I think your past life sounds a lot cooler than mine. I remember doing a lot of errands across Lucis, in between all the daemon hunts and the occasional scrap with MTs.
Space train’s cooler than anything I can think of because it’s in space. It’s a secret trick for developers, something set in space is almost guaranteed to be a hit.
Those too. We've got more than one secret trick up our sleeves.
But to be fair to me, space train might be cooler, but being a magic king's nothing to sniff at either. [If he doesn't look at all the pain and loss and anger and grief of his time as a king-in-exile, anyway.]
What, you think no ruler has ever taken a nap on their throne while holding court? Come on, kings pull late nights too, maybe they’ve dozed off on the throne once or twice. I know I’ve done it in company-wide meetings.

Try warping with this. Throw it into the living room and focus on catching it before it hits the ground.

[Pumping his fist into the air like hell yeah.]
Pretty cool, yeah? Plus you can do DoorDash deliveries a lot faster this way.

[Just gonna warp back to Noct, yep.]
But this is going to make other errands way easier! And Mei won't be able to escape me by getting on the roof again.
[Mei being the Delcatty. Because he remembered Ruan Mei and her Creations.]

[Mostly he just uses it to speedrun his grocery runs, though, because hey, why not.]
You named the cat after the cat-cake scientist? [Pause.] That’s actually fitting.
no subject
[So. Mei!]
What's the range on it? The warp, I mean.

[Or cat-adjacent creatures, anyway.]

Don't worry, I'll try to reach for my own pocket. I don't want to use those things if they hurt you that bad.

[A beat, as he registers what just happened.]
Okay, that's pretty cool. Why's that bat look so fancy, though?
