Maybe they were just feeling those two refracting then before they did. Bass and Riff?

[nightchild]

[he nods]

Maybe. [...he sighs] We've been here for so long, and we still don't know how it really works. And it's Thursday night too...

[HE LOOKS WORRIED, but he manages to pull his thoughts away for the moment]

Are you staying with Kazu-kun?

[brotograph]

Yeah, I'm staying with him. Even if I won't be very good company. I can't leave him like that...

[ with his not one-hundred percent eye sight ]

What about you?

[nightchild]

...He'll be glad that you're there, good company or not.

[even if he saw prompto turn into a dinosaur]

I'll be with Shuu-kun and Yasu-kun in the sword room. Might ask Nogiku-san to stay with us too.

[brotograph]

[ can't believe he saw prompto become garoukin ]

He'll get tired of me some day. He did when he was refracting... it'll happen again.

[ :< ]

That would be good. Take care of them... I know they can take care of themselves but you know what I mean.

[ he loves swords ] Nogiku could use some company, too.

[nightchild]

[he smiles warmly before nodding,]

...Yeah, I'll look after them -- Nogiku-san too.

[but more importantly,]

Did he say that to you? During that week?

[brotograph]

She's pretty nice even if she likes keeping a distance.

[ she was concerned about [redacted] ]

Yeah... something similar. I know it wasn't him and I'm over it. But today I started to really feel it amp up again. That he'll see me for the loser that I really am.

[nightchild]

Prompto...

[it's not scolding or lecturing, just... a tone of understanding. who can hate you more than yourself?]

What exactly happened? Is it because of the flowers?

[what amped up hello]

[brotograph]

[ he is the number fan of making fun of himself ]

Oh... I'm so stupid. I forgot as soon as I saw you guys.

[ Just going to even more like shit ]

Gumball.

[nightchild]

[prompto stop that....

also ???]

Gumball? Did you get cursed?

[brotograph]

Yeah, you could say that. I cursed myself.

[nightchild]

[...]

What happened?

[brotograph]

Had some bad gacha luck. Then made it worst by ignoring it and returning my gumballs. So when I went to try to get my gun back it uh...tripled? It gave me my gumballs back and I have to use all three.

[nightchild]

[BAD GACHA LUCK???

Itsuki's clearly surprised -- this is the first he's heard of the app betraying them like this,]

I still haven't used the VIP app, so I had no idea that could happen. Do you have to use all of them this week?

[brotograph]

[ badcha luck :< ]

Wasn't given a time limit, but figured the sooner, the better.

[nightchild]

[hmm...]

I can try and help -- as a person who you could use the gumball on, maybe?

[brotograph]

Huh? Do you want to feel optimistic for a day?

[nightchild]

That reminds me of the tattoo... But feeling optimistic is probably different from being super overconfident, right?

[brotograph]

Yeah, instead of thinking you can take on the world, you'd think that the world will be alright in the end.

[nightchild]

Doesn't sound that bad when you put it that way. I won't mind if you use it on me tomorrow, so keep that in mind, okay?

[brotograph]

[ imagine him being optimistic about finding a dead body ]

Okay... thanks. I mean it really, dude.

[nightchild]

[look... that's exactly the moment you need some optimism...]

...I trust you, Prompto.

[he'll squeeze his shoulder once]

No matter what you think of yourself... I like you a lot. You're a good guy and a good friend, and you always care about me -- me and everyone else here. Like Shuu-kun and Yasu-kun, and Nogiku-san. You're thinking of them the same way you're thinking about me and Kazu-kun.

[brotograph]

[ he can squeeze them again he has two good shoulders

he'll smile for a moment before the doubt creeps back in. ]

I mean, it's nothing really. I'm not really that great.

[nightchild]

[...he will not squeeze his shoulders, but he will pat Prompto on the head.]

That's the good thing about an opinion. Everyone has just one, which means you can be outnumbered.

[brotograph]

[ his hair is flufferbutter ]

I doubt it'll be outnumbered. [ ... ] You know, I do like you as a friend, too. It's been fun spending time with you. Not that it's fun that you're fucked up right now, but you know what I mean.
