Party Time

[loveandduty]

Who: Everyone who wants to attend.
What: It's a party for all, but the pairing up part is for singles only.
When: Day 19 of Fiddlesticks
Where: Gym Carriage
Warnings: Who knows atm just Minako being Minako will add more as things happen.

[Minako figured she did the best she could for the party. Though she also wondered if perhaps she might not have that many people come. Sure she wanted to put singles together, but at the same time, she simply wanted people to have fun.

In the dressing carriage, people will find costumes and masks that were more gothic in nature. There was food and hopefully some forms of sweet treats for those looking for it as well as a variety of drink, mostly non-alcoholic.]

Prompto frowned watching that confused face. He needed to get a better idea of Inigo's world so he knew how to phrase things. Wait, hadn't his buddy told him before? Kings, dragons, traveling, swords.. yeah, all very modern things. He didn't know what the issue was! Oh.. but he was confused by his camera that one time... hm.

"How do you dance together and be a solo thing?" He was confused. "Your mother was a dancer?" His interest was piqued immediately. His eyes widened a bit, loving any story about families. He technically had one but it felt so different ever since he'd learned the truth about himself. Not only that but his foster family (what he was mentally calling them now) had been gone so often. "What was that like? She- I mean. What was she like?"

[flatteries]

"Sometimes we dance together, but that's more.. That is like ballroom dancing, it's different!" And also still different from Prompto's whole hips don't lie dance over here!

But since his world's way of dancing is really difficult to explain without a demonstration - and that's something Inigo really doesn't want to tackle right now with so many people around, thanks! - he's grateful for the topic change. Talking about his mother is at least way easier, even though it makes some place in his heart hurt at the same time.

"But my mother.. um.. Well, she is the most amazing woman I know." Was, technically, but he's trying to gently shove that fact under the rug here.. "She is honestly so beautiful, with long flowing pink hair.. Not to mention she's such a skilled dancer, and also very humble and kind to absolutely everyone she meets. Mother would never look down on anyone. She may be a little shy sometimes, but.. she has so much love to give."

Does that sound like a certain someone? Yeah, Inigo may be taking just a bit too much after one parent...

"Oh... well we do ballroom dancing too.. sometimes. Some people do. Gladio does, I think. You know Iggy does!" Could he pull it off? He wasn't sure. He'd had a lesson or two but he hadn't been paying the best attention. He never thought he'd use it in the future so why should he?

Prompto's focus was glued to Inigo hearing about his mother. It was easy to picture someone with Inigo's good looks and it was amusing how similar that description was to who Prompto knew his friend was. "Are you looking forward to seeing her when you go home?"

[flatteries]

That question, maybe surprisingly enough, makes Inigo go quiet for a moment. His movements slow down too until he just stills. Apparently it's more impactful than Prompto meant it to be - or Inigo just has to think about it for a moment, just has to really let that question dawn upon him, like it's something he hasn't thought about very much yet.

".. yes," he then answers. Inigo smiles softly. "I've really missed her."

Both here in this place, but also back in his own future, where she's been dead for so long. Thank god the former meaning being obvious means he doesn't have to reveal the latter.

The way Inigo answered had Prompto's heart melting. What a lucky woman to have such a devoted son! He hoped she knew, wherever she was how great Inigo was. He could see it, so he could only imagine she'd see it too.

Feeling overcome with warm, happy emotions, he stepped forward and pulled Inigo into a hug. He didn't make it last too long, but just a friendly 'I think you rock, bro' kinda hug. You know the kind, right?

"Come on, let's go get something to toast her with."
