[prompto starts, interrupting his train of thought with reaching over to tug at one of daisy's longer locks of hair. he's teasing.]
Won't happen again.
[here's to eating more toast.] I'm glad I met you guys. Honestly. What with Noct being gone and everything... It's nice to feel welcomed like how you and Illya have done with me.
[ she gives him an exasperated roll of her eyes, but daisy doesn't swat his hand away. ]
Yeah, well. Anybody who isn't being welcoming to you is on my shit list, for the record. [ a pointed look and a jab of her own piece of toast in his direction. ] Alright?
[prompto understands what it is to belong. to be part of noctis's retinue, thus befriending gladiolus and ignis both, initially out of necessity, but further on because they all made a great time. he always felt he was great because of who he was associated with.]
[the way daisy words what she means... it's got nothing to do with who he is best friends with, or who he hangs out with.]
[it's, honestly, enough to leave him like an anak in headlights, staring at her stupidly.]
Will you be kicking my ass if I'm the one making myself feel like garbage? I'm masterful at reliving the worst of myself.
[he jokes... mostly. but take that as an agreement to her terms and conditions.]
[he can't exactly find the words to express it, but he's glad he has found this kind of relationship away from home--and is grateful for how easy it's come. it's like none of the responsibilities and duties he held over at eos matter in terms of who he is and who he gets to relate with. it's honestly refreshing, to feel understood.]
[by this point, the toast he was offered is gone, and he does stand up from the stool and makes an effort to fix his hair a little.]
Anyway, awesome talk, Daisy, cuz you're awesome. I'm gonna see if I can catch some shots of the city from the tallest spire today. You got any requests, photography or otherwise?

Daisy: the bully of bullies.
[look at the smile on his face!! it's one of the real ones, surfacing from a real, genuine place.]
You're a menace.

[ but she's smiling back, soft and sure and sisterly. ]
You better tell me if somebody pushes you around for your lunch money, okay? I don't wanna hear about it from somebody else.
