[They did get used to this place, it's hard not to when you spend day after day here, trying to first survive and adapt, and then make something that resembles a living.
He shoots Prompto a look, then tosses his hand over his shoulders, this time being nice to the guy's hair.]
If you're happy then I'm happy too, too. [He grins.]
But in all seriousness, [he gives a small sigh and scratches his cheek,] it's a living. It could've been worse, it could've been better. But I do miss home, [he admits openly. He misses Eos, even if it's covered in demons. In fact, he wishes he can go back and continue working on exterminating them.]
But I have you guys here, you and Iggy, so I won't complain. So long you guys are alright, then I'm fine too. Don't hesitate to ask me for help, got it chocobo? [Now hair gets a small ruffle.]
( it's a relief to hear gladiolus say it--because he's been thinking the same thing, too. it's easy enough to adapt to a new place: they've always done it, always had to, and being out on the road has meant getting used to the idea of constantly traveling, never staying rooted in one place. but it's different, here, and at times, weirder than being anywhere back home; he misses knowing and understanding things, much better than he knows and understands things here.
but gladiolus' arm around his shoulders? he knows that weight. it feels good, comfortable, and makes him smile a bit, a grin tugging at his lips as he lifts a hand, catches the arm that gladiolus has draped over him and holds the hand, there. )
Yeah, well, same goes, okay? If you need any help with anything, I'm your man.
( his nose wrinkles, but he'll allow the hair ruffle. for now. )
But I swear, if we get arrested for this, you better get Ignis to bail us out...
( a small nod of his chin, as he squeezes gladiolus' hand. )
