[And he'll respond with a little bow of his own. He is very well trained in these kinds of things. ]

Ah, so you are the beauty who made Noctis a very lucky man. It is a pleasure to meet you, madamoiselle, and it is no problem. We were brought together under unusual circumstances, after all.

[And Ardyn clearly was not a welcome face for the poor guy. ]

Do you think anyone would even want them? They're very dull.

[ Her smile widens further at his words, and she can't stop herself from giggling. ]

Thank you, but I believe that I am the lucky one to have him in my life. I am pleased to meet you as well. I am so glad that he had someone to talk to, and that the two of you ended up on the same ship.

[ Oh, she knows about Ardyn. She just wishes she could have gotten to the Marsiva to intervene before anyone got hurt. ]

[He's pleased. Still charming the heck out of the ladies. ]

Perhaps you are lucky you found one another?

Of that, mademoiselle, I promise I can always offer to him. Everyone needs a friend, especially in strange places such as this.

[Lumiére was certain;y there, but he wasn't about to get involved. There's only so much you can do when you're shorter than an average person's arm. ]

Yes, perhaps we are.

[ Well, sort of. She nods in response, truly grateful that he'd been there to spend a little time with her prince. It couldn't have been fun for Lumiére and she knows it... ]

You have no idea how happy that makes me. It appears I owe you a debt, good sir. As for your book situation, perhaps I could take them off of your hands. I very much enjoy reading, even if they do seem a little... on the boring side.

[It's really hard to top the Beast when it comes to princely jackasses. Lumiére has this down to a fine art. He waves an arm gently. ]

Oh no, there's no need for debts. If we do not befriend one another, we would all be in for a very long and boring trip, would we not?

...Really? [They're SO DULL. Still, he hides his surprise with a charming smile.] But of course! If you want them, you are more than welcome to them.

[ Oh, it's not Noctis that she's worried about. It's Ardyn....... ]

This is very true. Even still, you have my gratitude in whole. It is extremely nice to see him making friends.

Thank you very much. But only if you are sure... [ He seems sure but she doesn't want to just take his books because one never knows. ] I'm sure they can't be that bad. Are you positive they are not something you would like to read?

[Okay yep, he'd definitely be someone to worry about. ]

Does he not make many, back home?

[Poor guy. If that's the case, Lumiére will make it his mission to find MORE people to be Noctis' friends. He will have SO MANY. ]

Absolutely not. Rules are not precisely my favourite thing. I like to skirt the less abiding lines.

[ The man need to be punched in the throat, clearly. ]

He has a select few... he is a sweet, quiet young man you see. [ Except when Ardyn is around but you know. ] But the friends he has are wonderful. Even still, he has next to none here.

[ She doesn't want Noctis to be lonely... if Lumiére is able to get him a lot of friends, she'd be so grateful. ]

That would make two of us, then. Rules are present for a reason... but a good majority of them were made to be broken, I believe.

[Clearly.]

Then that is a real shame. Everyone deserves to have friends, no matter where they are.

[He will make it his mission. He laughs, clearly pleased.]

Ah, a woman after my own heart! I couldn't agree more.

[ Right in the throat. Or upside the head. Maybe hard enough to knock his dumb fedora off. ]

I completely agree. Besides, I think it would do him some good to expand his horizons.

[ Excellent. She is counting on you, Lumiére!! Her smile widens, and she nods her head. ]

Admittedly, there are not many rules to break out here in space. None that I can really see, at least... other than the obvious.

[ ...You know. Murdering people and the such. ]

[It'd do just the job!]

Give him some adventure beyond his usual experiences, no?

[HE WILL DO IT!! He'll make her proud.]

Well, there are some rules even I won't break, but other than those obvious ones- no. They seems to be missing. Not that I'm complaining.

[ There are other places to punch him too, but really, the throat is probably the best option. ]

Indeed. Nothing would make me happier than to see him at his happiest, and friends should do just the trick.

[ SHE OWES YOU MAN!! ]

Nor am I. For now, at least... but I suppose we shall have to see a little further into the future whether or not being a little lawless is a good thing or not.

Then I am happy to aid him getting there, mademoiselle!

I will await that day with baited breath. [No, he won't. ]

You have my gratitude. Thank you so much.

As it were, it would appear we've some not-so-friendly-faces within the Fleet. Let us hope we are all well prepared for when that time comes. [ She... definitely knows she will be. ]

Think nothing of it! It will be my pleasure.

Best we are on our guards on that front, no?

[He is absolutely battle-ready if he needs be. Being able to turn into a living flamethrower has its uses. ]
