[week two - friday evening]

[ceded]

[ Today was not a good day.

Xion isn't taking it as hard as she was the first week, but she's also exhausted. She hasn't slept since Wednesday night, and her tiredness drags at her the way a physical illness would, sticking to her bones and making her chest feel weak. She needs to get some rest, and soon.

But for now, she's still awake, mostly because there were people she wanted to talk to. Noctis is first among them, and spotting him in the hotel's lounge is ideal. The moment she sees him there she...

...promptly skedaddles, because she has a Plan, you see.

It takes her a few minutes, but she'll return not long after with two mugs in her hands. Somewhat shy, she'll approach him with a little smile. ]

Hey. I thought you might want something warm to drink?

[ It's tea. Adults like tea, right? Probably? ... she made herself cocoa, so. ]

[he probably would have accepted cocoa too, honestly.

but in any case—he's not expecting company; he's idly tossing darts into the dartboard, though it's when he goes to pull them out that she approaches.

yeah, definitely not expected.

noct looks a bit surprised for sure; he's gotten strangely used to having to be more self-sufficient without the bros there to take care of him. something like this is very much what he'd have expected from ignis—and it's the first time anyone's really made that sort of effort for him here.]

Oh... uh, thanks. [he'll nod, offering a muted smile before taking one of the mugs from her. it's probably just what he could use right now, though he's not thinking about it much.] Didn't realize you were still up.
