[Noctis thinks something over, before he digs around in his pocket and slides a pen across the table.]

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

You did it!

[Pumping his fist into the air like hell yeah.]

Pretty cool, yeah? Plus you can do DoorDash deliveries a lot faster this way.

And it’s an easy way to get a breather from a fight.

[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.
illucesco: (to go down the road that will take me)

Guess cats have to stick together.

[Or cat-adjacent creatures, anyway.]

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.
illucesco: (in ribbons up to the moon; they)

Good, I dunno how they'll react to you—

[A beat, as he registers what just happened.]

Okay, that's pretty cool. Why's that bat look so fancy, though?
illucesco: (carved out a perfect circle)

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.
illucesco: (oh we'll carry them home)

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.
illucesco: (but i owe it to my brothers)

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.
illucesco: (i could hear the whole world)

You fall asleep in Mario Kart one time. One time.
