Aren't you the one who judged Coctura's cooking with a Face?

[quickrecipeh]

That was then, this is now. I'm growing more adventurous by the day.

[...]

I'll be happy to critique, if you so desire.

[clickclickbang]

Yeah? I can make, like, burgers and stuff alright but if you've got tips I'll take 'em!

[quickrecipeh]

I'll challenge you to impress me. So pick your best dish and come at me.

[clickclickbang]

Good thing you're not vegan, because that means burgers!

[quickrecipeh]

Imagine me being vegan.

[A laugh.]

I love vegetables, of course, but there's nothing like a well cooked meat.

[clickclickbang]

Noct would've starved to death if you were vegan, let's be real.

[quickrecipeh]

He would've shriveled up and blown away.

[clickclickbang]

Wasted away to nothing by age ten.

[quickrecipeh]

We'd be without a King. The tragedy compounds.

[clickclickbang]

Oh well, time to turn Lucis into a democracy. I nominate you as prime minister.

[quickrecipeh]

Why, thank you. I have rather been thinking of getting back into politics, now that you mention it.

[clickclickbang]

[He shifts so he can hold out his hands like two scales.]

Babysitting a king....babysitting a country. Babysitting a king....babysitting a country.

[The "country" side goes up.]

Gotta be easier.

[quickrecipeh]

[Ignis reaches for the "king" hand and takes hold of it.]

Especially when your King is turning into a monster. You're both handfuls right now. So I'm babysitting a King and his rather interesting best friend.

[clickclickbang]

[Oh. He's.

Iggy is holding his hand? What. What!!]

Is he having issues with it? Should I talk to him?

[quickrecipeh]

Not any worse than yours. In many ways I'd say he's more annoyed than anything.

[Ignis lets go of his hand and puts his arms back loosely around Prompto.]

But you're important to both of us, so here I am.

[clickclickbang]

[And Prompto settles back down against Ignis.]

...yeah?

[quickrecipeh]

[Prompto are you not feeling how comfortable and content he is compared to normal times? At least he's getting there. There's some slight nervousness as well.]

Yes.

[clickclickbang]

[He smiles softly.]

Good, because you guys are all I got. You mean a lot to me, too.

[quickrecipeh]

It's the same for me. I only have you two. Three, should Gladio ever arrive.

[clickclickbang]

Do you think he will?

[quickrecipeh]

I don't know. I think he certainly may, but I haven't pinned my hopes upon it. I can't say I'd be happy for him if he did come, all things considered. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. That's all this is.

[clickclickbang]

Yeah...kinda miss him and wanna see him, really don't want him to deal with this bullshit.

[quickrecipeh]

Precisely. I'd appreciate his company, but I don't want him to be forced into this place's rules.

[clickclickbang]

Yeah.

[A beat.]

He'd totally be a bear Turnskin or a Dragon if he wasn't a Witch.
