June Catch-all [OTA + One Closed Prompt]

[clickclickbang]

Who: Prompto + you!
When: First half of June
Where: All over the place
What: Jobs, reuniting with your bffs, shenanigans
Warnings: Awkward flirting? Spoilers for FF15?

Closed: Ignis and Noctis

[Prompto didn't even have to go apply for this job; the person in charge of the delivery service took one look at Prompto taking Primula for a job and practically begged them to play delivery boy. Apparently a giant bird was perfect for carrying packages. Who knew?

They were given directions to the place and they're on their way there now after a stop off at the house to get Prim's saddle and bridle. Of course, Prompto didn't think to kit her up before leaving the house so she is now running off down a side street with her rider chasing after her.]

Get back here! Why does this always happen to me...

Open: Delivery!

[And after that emotional mess of a reunion, Prompto can be found dashing about on chocobo-back as he delivers letters and small packages. Are you a recipient? Are you just walking by as a yellow birdy blur zips past you and maybe knocks you down? Either way you won't catch him until he stops in front of his destination.]

Delivery!

Open: Festival Prep

[He's a busy bee this month, apparently, as he has picked up a second part-time job! Or possibly more, as Prompto seems to be helping out whatever shop will take him that day and that leaves him doing a lot of things.

For some reason, he gets asked to carry things from one place to another a lot and he's not sure why. He's not strong or anything, so he spends a lot of time struggling down the street with the boxes of decorations or whatever it is he's carrying.

This means he can't see or stop very well.

Which means it's only a matter of time before he runs into something and trips. That "something" could be a wall or a tree root or even you.

Either way, Prompto lands face first on the ground with a yelp and a swear. Help?]

Open: Why is This His Life? (Or: Flirting Classes)

[He's not even sure he knows how he got enrolled in this class but HERE HE IS.

Standing outside one of the brothels.

Looking like a man about to go to his death.]

I don't need these classes, do I? I'm not that bad. People like me, right? So I've never had a date, who cares, that stuff's for people with time for that...

Wildcard

[Wanna poke Prompto but don't wanna do these prompts? Hit me up!]

Comments

[clickclickbang]

[He squawks a little at that because what?! Random nice girl just called him cute?!]

Uh, t-thanks? Where-where did that come from...?

[showsnopiety]

You just seemed a little down on yourself. So...someone had to remind you you're attractive.

[She smiles. There's a teasing lilt to her voice as she adds:]

Even if you sound like a chicken.

[clickclickbang]

[...okay, he has to ask.]

First, I do not sound like a chicken. Second, d'you know a woman named Justine by any chance?

[showsnopiety]

Only when surprised. And we only just met at the Knit Wit.

Why? Did she say the same thing? Or did she...and you....?

[Okay she might be teasing him. Just a bit.]

[clickclickbang]

[Why is this is liiiiiife.]

N-no! She just...yeah, she'll say the same thing and she's, uh. Signed me up for [mumbled:] flirting classes...

[showsnopiety]

Flirting classes?

[She can't help it; she laughs. The very idea! But giving it a moment or two of thought...]

Actually...that's not a terrible idea. I should sign up too.

Maybe if you're lucky, I'll be one of your partners.

[clickclickbang]

[RIP Prompto.]

M-maybe. Oh, I'm Prompto! Nice to meet you, and seriously sorry about running into you.

[showsnopiety]

[Someone rescue him.]

Maybe if you ask for me. I'm Caren.

And it's fine. I was just as much at fault, if not more.

[clickclickbang]

Nah, I shouldn't have had so much in my arms.

[showsnopiety]

But you learned.

So there's no need to punish you.

[clickclickbang]

Punish...? Seriously?

[showsnopiety]

Punish.

[A beat.]

You would wilt if I scolded you.

And I don't want that to happen.

[clickclickbang]

[Surprise! He's gonna wilt anyway. Just a little.]

Am I really that obvious?

[showsnopiety]

Only after some poking.

[She tried to offer an awkward pat on his arm. Mostly awkward because she's not used to the motion.]

I'm sure most people would realize.

[clickclickbang]

[Whomp whomp. But he just sorta laughs.]

Well, nice to know I still can't fake being cool. I was getting worried.

[showsnopiety]

Wouldn't. Wouldn't realize. I misspoke.

[Whoops.]

But really Prompto-you're fine as you are. I don't know you yet but-

It would be better to be someone easy to be around then being cool. Yes?

[clickclickbang]

Oh.

[Whoops.]

Yeah, I guess. Never thought about it before.

[showsnopiety]

Because you've been thinking of other things.

[Like being cool maybe. Or keeping up with his friends.]

Maybe you should think about it more. Maybe you already know what your friends prefer-

You being cool, or you being yourself.

[clickclickbang]

[But he's not sure what "himself" is.

Still, she's got a point.]

I guess. Oh! I'm Prompto, just realized I didn't actually know the name of the girl I nearly crushed.

[showsnopiety]

[Guess this is the place to learn.]

And I just realized I forgot to mention mine.

[Because she's used to having that not be important.]

It's Caren. It's nice to meet you Prompto.

THAT GAG LINE

[clickclickbang]

[Prompto smiles.]

I'd shake your hand, but boxes.

hehe

[showsnopiety]

You can shake it after the delivery.

[She smiles a bit. It's small, but it's there.]

And after that, bandages and lunch. You promised.

[He did not, but she's bad like that.]
