The sigh, in response... it's long, it's deep, but likely expected, right alongside the way he pulls his spectacles from his face to pinch the space betwixt his eyes.

" Take it where, your highness? Certainly not back to my own quarters. " A lot of this looks materialistic. Expensive and unnecessary, and this is coming from an individual who shamelessly spent hundreds of dollars on a luxury coffee maker and cooking tools. There are LIMITS, however, and this has far exceeded that. " Why not donate it to charity--- ah, not counting the... food and beverages. That, we may put to use. "

@tenebriism liked for a cash money starter-;

“I’ve already thrown out the receipts. You have to take it.”

Noctis declares as he stands off to the side of Ignis and the small mountain of presents sitting on the kitchen bench. There’s some designer bags, luxury bath and body products, and even some training gear that he knows his retainer goes through. Noctis is observant when he wants to be. And not above resorting to bribes.

The rest of his apartment is beyond horrendous. But that doesn’t matter right now. Not when there’s a slab of Ebony cans mixed among the presents.

Dez had of course spent the night as she woke up beside him. Her fingers brushed along Howl's arm as she started to wake up. "How are you feeling? Any better today?" If he said jump, she'd just say how high.

" ... yes, thanks to you. " His heart still felt empty ( the... metaphorical one, considering Calcifer currently owned his actual one ), but it would mend itself in due time... especially with Dez here to keep him well and amply distracted. " If it wasn't meant to be, it wasn't meant to be. I'm really living up to my reputation, aren't I? Howl the Heartless... "

４月25日 白朮(ビャクジュツ)先生Happy Birthday!!

the sexiest thing a man can do is be pathetic

Happy Birthday, Baizhu!

Good morning. How have you been holding up recently? Any discomfort?

I've prepared a whole range of medicinal foods to help fortify your body, and Qiqi has also gathered some rare herbs for you.

Also, take this herbal bouquet I put together for you. It'll have a calming effect if you put it by your bedside.

If you'd rather not see the flowers wilt away, you may also decoct them. I'll show you how a little later.

Cycle of retribution

tricksheart : I mean Iggy makes Noctis eat veggies. Of course Noctis is gonna make Iggy stressed. Revenge. lol

" ... so, because I care deeply about his health and well-being... " And, about him, to a MUCH deeper extent than he's willing to admit, " ... the stress is, as you claim, WARRANTED? "

S i g h s . . .

Lieutenant Anderson has been officially assigned to the deviancy case. What do you make of him?

I think he's irritable, and socially challenged... but I also think he used to be a good detective. He's an intriguing character.

please ❤ and/or ↻ if you'd like to interact with a noctis lucis caelum from final fantasy xv. thanks!

“THE WORLD REVOLVING” by Toby Fox

Jevil’s bonus boss fight theme from Toby Fox’s Deltarune: Chapter 1

' Friends. '

Just the word itself sounded ludicrous, like he may very well get eradicated on the spot just for considering it for even a moment. Frankly, though, he's so very tired. He can feel the weight of his past incarnations sitting heavily 'pon his soul and his mind, and everyday that passes, he wants, so badly, to be rid of it. Thus, after several moments of silent consideration, he rises from his seat and approaches the hero, holding out a hand.

" A truce... for now, yet the moment I smell ill intent or betrayal from you, I will not hesitate to let destiny take the reins again. Have we a deal, hero? "

"It doesn't have to be all you know." His words are soft, quiet. He's spoken more to Ganondorf now than most people, and it feels so strange - words had always been reserved for those he trusted, those he was comfortable with, and Ganondorf was neither. The question of how to go against history had him silent for a moment or two.

"I don't know," he admits. "Maybe we could - try not killing each other. Try being friends?"

Blinks. Blinks again. Blinks a third time, and then? He simply walks away.

idk why i didn't post this here but behold. niddstinien. extra dragon edition. monsterfuckers rise

" I did... however, it's easy for me to fall right back into my workload. You know this, princess, hence why I need a... distraction sometimes. " Look at that... he's already forgotten about the laptop on his desk. Sometimes, all it takes is a beautiful woman whom he inexplicably loves to guide him AWAY from corporate obsession. " You're here to stay, I hope? "

Pardon? Back to work, you say? At this hour? Not on her watch! She will take her place on her throne, locking her legs around him and his seat with a grumpy pout.

"Didn't you say you were going to take the night off?"
