Exploring

[ikenai]

[Mikumo has no problem going off by herself. She's not really the type to scare easily and she's naturally curious. When she sees the blond she stops what she's doing and turns so she can follow behind him.

Right build. Right hair. Camera. Yep, that's got to be him.]

You know, if you're looking for something to photograph, you should be looking for a good subject.

[That sure is whispered directly into his ear. Hi, Prompto.]

[this_loser]

[In his ear!? He gasps and whirls around, on the defensive, and then immediately embarrassed by his reaction. He puts a little space between them and laughs nervously.]

Ahaha. Um. Right. Yeah. That's ... that's what I've been doing...

[ikenai]

[Completely unapologetic, Mikumo only smiles and closes the distance between her and her prey. Messer might be going easy on this boy, but she needs to test him out.]

And just what are you photographing?

[this_loser]

[Oh. Um. Okay. He starts to take yet another step back, but lo! She brought up his favorite subject!]

Everything! Scenery and animals, mostly. Whatever catches my eye, really.

[ikenai]

[And then she sees his blue eyes light up and she can see what Kaname likes about him. Still, must give him a hard time.

She steps to the side of him, making it impossible to escape her.]

And just what has your attention now?

[this_loser]

Uh...

[What's happening here? He offers a weak smile.]

Um, ch-chocobos! [He flips back on his camera to show her a picture of one of the resident birds.] Or whatever they call them here. Pretty cool, huh?

[ikenai]

[Don't you know idols can smell weakness and wavering, Prompto. Be strong. Channel Gladio.]

Chocobos, hm? [She leans over to see the photos and get in his personal space.] Oh, yes, I've seen them around here. Very interesting birds. However, you're missing people in your collection. A shame, really.

[this_loser]

[Channel Gladio. Do you come here often, because... I... have never seen you before... No.

He presses his lips together and tilts sideways a bit. Still, they're talking about his pictures, so he can be wary and excited at the same time!]

Oh, no, I, uh, I have lots of pictures of people!

[A lot of them are pictures of him, because selfies. But more than half of them are with Kaname or Noctis, or any other friends or crew members who were kind enough to humor him. But mostly Kaname.]

[ikenai]

[Prompto. No. What would Glado-dad and Iggy-momma think? Work on that.

The more he tries to get away, the more she gets closer. Nope. She's like a spider with a fly and she will get her prey.

Only, her attention is grabbed by just how many pictures of Kaname he has.]

And who is that? Your girlfriend?

[this_loser]

[Gladdy-daddy and Mama Ignis will just have to accept him as he is, flaws and all!

Geez, lady... Normally he'd be flattered, and flustered. (Well, he's still flustered.) But he's already got someone! Someone he likes very, very much.

He quickly nods, grinning.]

Yeah! Sure is!

[You gonna back off a bit now, or...?]

[ikenai]

[Well, luckily, Prompto is their favorite choco-child. It's okay.

She can tell that he's flustered and it doesn't deter her in the least little bit. It's part of her plan.]

Well, she certainly is pretty. [She gets in his face, expression serious as she can get it while digging for her information.] Do you love her?

[this_loser]

[Damn straight.]

Yeah... [The most pretty.

He leans back and glances to the side.] U-um... That's a personal question. I can't... I don't even know you. So...

[So he's not telling a total stranger what he hasn't even told Kaname yet.]

[ikenai]

[She can't help it. She starts to laugh at his discomfort.]

Of course it's personal. It isn't worth asking if it's not, right?

[She leans back and out of his personal space, flipping her hair over her shoulder to get it out of her face.]

My name is Mikumo Guynemer. Certainly your girlfriend told you about me, yes?

[this_loser]

[He doesn't know how to react to that, or how to answer without being rude. And he doesn't want to be.

He is grateful when she stops invading his bubble. His face scrunches up in thought.]

Um, maybe? The name is familiar? You're a friend of hers?

[ikenai]

[Mikumo reaches out and taps him on the nose.

Don't worry, Prompto. You'll get used to it.]

Yes, and of Messer too. Surely she's told you about Walküre if you're close.

[this_loser]

[He rubs his nose with a nervous laugh. WTH.

The pieces are falling into place.]

Yeah! Of course! Are you someone else from her group, then? You know, Freya was here for a while.

[She was fun. Almost like a more colorful, bubbly Iris.]

[ikenai]

[Messer sizes you up with glares. Mikumo sizes you up by temptation and teasing. If you fail, well...

It's a good thing she doesn't kill people.]

I've heard the apple girl was here. Did you get to meet her?

[And Mikumo is like... Aranea, somewhat.]

[this_loser]

[He nods.]

Yeah. Some. I didn't get to know her super well, though.

[Also more colorful, and lacking a spear.]

[ikenai]

She's rather simple. And sweet. So, you've gotten to meet her.

[She's the opposite of Mikumo in fact.]

It's a shame that her boyfriend wasn't here as well. Something tells me the two of you would get along.

[this_loser]

Was she old enough for a boyfriend?

[She seemed really young, but he realizes he never actually learned her age.]

Huh. Well, maybe someday. Never know around here.

[ikenai]

I suppose so. She had a birthday.

[One, ages are irrelevant at this point. Two, Windermereans are weird. Also, she's not Freyja's mom.]

So I'm finding out.

[this_loser]

[He nods, though, yes, birthdays didn't amount to a whole lot around here. Even though he'll happily claim to be 21.

He grins.]

Well, it's nice that you're here. I'm sure Kaname's happy.

[ikenai]

[Birthdays don't really mean much to her. They've never been celebrated, after all. Except, they're important for Windermereans, due to their short lifespans.]

Hm. I wonder. She seems pleased, but she's good at hiding sometimes.

[So says Mikumo.]
