I strongly suspect it's less that I didn't earn it and more that you have nothing edible.
I'm not sure the last time I had cereal, really. [Look he's either making an actual breakfast for Noct, or desperately eating a protein bar and sucking coffee between meetings, there's no in between.]
Something without too much sugar. Granola, perhaps?
nothing edible? i have a bag of chocolate chips we're not all so picky, princess
[ Yeah, that'll show him.
Although, if she's concerning herself with what he wants for breakfast, then...
Flopping back onto her bed, Aranea squints up at the ceiling and resists a groan. Her sheets are still mussed because she's certainly not going to make her own bed, and it's not like he offered to do it.
There's a conversation that needs to be had, but she holds herself off on starting it for another moment. Why? Because. That's why. ]
[ Yeah, precisely. She isn't ashamed or embarrassed, although she'd quite like to skip the boring parts, but sweeping things under the rug isn't her style either. She intends to be very clear. ]
[u thirsty, girl-- and really... it's tempting, because let's face it, he's very much a stifled 22 year old man whose never had the time to have any sort of relationship, romantic, casual, or otherwise. So-- yeah, there's a dumb, hormonal part of him interested.]
I really should put in an appearance at home at some point.
[IT'S. NOT A NO... more like trying to convince himself to say no and not quite. getting there.]
[ She isn't going to force him! She's just... Yeah. Like he said, thirsty. He's unpracticed but eager, present through-out, willing to take his time and learn. ]
i get off work at 1AM
[ Maybe she'll pick up some granola cereal for him. ]

this isn't a hotel
[ 1. That isn't true.
2. She isn't feeling nearly as quarrelsome as her words pretend.
3. Maybe just... looking for an excuse to check in on him?
Maybe?
Ugh. ]

Still, this is kind of amusing, in a weird awkward way.....??]
I most certainly did not.
And I couldn't mistake the two if I tried. A hotel would have offered breakfast.
no subject

maybe next time
what's your favourite cereal?
[ Not making any promises, but ]

[girl don't be jealous that he makes Noctis's bed and not yours.]
I think 'pickiness' and 'understanding basic human needs' are a far cry away from one another.
no subject
[ maybe she's a tiny bit jealous, but on the other hand, he probably isn't having sex with noctis ]
no subject
[That's true. Not the thesis comment, the not-fucking-his-Prince one.]

[ because you know ]

So it comes a little. Awkwardly later. Because he had to think entirely too hard to have some sort of response.]
I think that would be uncomfortable, more than anything. Besides, I've not earned a doctorate, so there'd be no need.
no subject
as long as we're on the same page
[ Uh.
He'll see a "typing" notification, such as it is for their neural implant, for a long time. Then: ]
i'm not going to tell your pals
they're your friends, not mine
but if they ask where you were, i don't care if you tell them
no subject
It's not that I have any real need for secrecy, but rather I don't feel as though going out of my way to inform them would accomplish anything.
I suppose I'll see if any of them approach me in regards to it. And if not, then perhaps it's best to let sleeping behemoths lie.

busy tonight?

Prompto tends to work in the afternoons- perhaps I could see him after his shift, and then have time once he'd gone to bed?
[And maybe bring her some really shitty wine because that's all he can afford.]

whatever you want
you know where i live
