Affurgato Mingle: July edition
♥ Who: Open to all
♥ Where: Affurgato
♥ When: This week
♥ What: An open mingle at the restaurant which is... mysteriously celebratory!
♥ Rating: who knows, probably PG/13ish?
Regulars of Affurgato might notice things have spiced up a little bit in the last several days; the decor is a little brighter, the staff more upbeat, and the food, while tasty as ever, is a little different. The restaurant is advertising a summer menu of slow-cooked BBQ sliders, sweet potato fries with honey butter dip, grilled pineapple and watermelon slices, and warm peach cobbler with ice cream. The prices are slightly more premium than usual, but ooh, doesn't it all smell worth it? Newcomers might even get a discount, if the right elf twin gets their bill. But how do you know which one's the right twin? ...Yeah, good luck with that.
For this week, the menu will include two curious additions as well: a Thanksgiving-esque meal including fresh slabs of turkey and stuffing, flavoured with bacon grease, and a slice of rainbow layer cake. The cats are very attentive, especially to recognizably good tippers, and there's a display sign outside the door with a doodle of a binicorn in flashy sunglasses shouting the words "ONE YEAR MORE, NERDS", which might be weird to those who know that Affurgato opened about six months ago. Ah, well.
Also noteworthy is the fact that an actual, tangible magical bicicorn will be running around for the first 45 minutes of every daily shift that the restaurant is open, trying to scoop people up onto his back and deposit them in front of the shop. You're here now, so you might as well get a meal, right? Don't question it.
Come one, come all! Enjoy some good food and the company of your neighbours, maybe visit the elves and see what's up.

[ Not that she's certain of how much Prompto may or may not have said about such things. ]
no subject
[He said at least that much!]
...Can you tell me anything about it? I try not to bug him too much, but sometimes I wonder.
no subject
[ It's said fondly; she was a very different person at the time and couldn't appreciate the meeting for what it had been, but he'd treated her kindly from the start. ]
I could try. I'll admit, I was very preoccupied during most of my time there, but that shouldn't impact my answers too much. What were you curious about?
no subject
[He glances down, scratching distractedly at Kova's ear.]
Prompto's the kind of guy who'd pretend everything's fine when it isn't, if he felt like he had good reason to. I just wanna do right by him, but I don't know what to ask, either.
no subject
[ She shakes her head. Sunshine boy... but she'd seen him down in the dumps too. ]
Life wasn't... too different from how it seems here. There were more opportunities for different scenery, some dangerous and some not, with various forms of intrusion from our hosts and our efforts to work against them. He decided to leave our ship to join others he was closer to, though he would come back often enough to visit me. I'm certain Kova was more of the draw there.
[ The cat makes a noise at his name, before resuming his cuddle with Noctis. ]
By the end of it all we'd all had chances to decide where we wanted to go... we were able to confront the Atroma and help restore it to it's intended purpose. Though I believe he had been whisked away sooner... I hadn't expected to see him drawn to this place as well.
no subject
[Now she, too, has vanished, possibly never to be seen again. Having seen enough people come and go by now, he's felt the sting himself; it must've been terrible to watch it happen for so long. It hasn't even been a year for him, and already there's been such hardship.]
no subject
[ She at least could be grateful for her particular time as much as she dreaded it altering. ]
... I am glad that he is here though, and that he does remember that time, even if it was a lot to experience. He was very good to me. Though, I think it must embarrass him now whenever I give him the praise he deserves.
no subject
[He'd certainly been grateful for Prompto's presence plenty of times since his arrival, for a myriad of reasons. And he's... not especially eager for either of them to go back, knowing what's coming.
Well, until then he'll just have to do his best to give his loved ones what they've more than earned.]
It might embarrass him, but he likes it anyway. Keep it up.
no subject
[ Not now that he's unlocked that level of praising from her, anyway. Especially because it surprises him. A little too relatable. Speaking of praise, though-- ]
Oh... and he allowed me to see that drawing you had made for him. It seemed very fitting, and he seemed quite happy about that.
no subject
[At least he likes chocobos.]
no subject
[ Sorry Noctis, the praise will continue. ]
He even shared the image and story of the little one that inspired it.
no subject
[He pauses, then-]
You knew about his arm?
no subject
[ To go from consistently concealing an unpleasant reminder to seeming pleased with what had happened after was not difficult to pick up on. As much as she does know more about him than he realizes, thanks to Cor and the implications of his relationship with Verstael from when he had turned younger. ]
It is a symbol that he can be pleased with, because his closest friend gave it new meaning. You both can be proud of that.
no subject
[He's relieved on multiple levels, particularly that he hadn't been more obvious about his questioning. Even with Verstael here, and even with the barcode covered, it should be Prompto's choice on who he tells.]
I'm mostly just... touched, I guess? I'm not a professional artist by any means, but he still picked it.
no subject
[ She can't help but approach it from a more--sentimental view. ]
I'm sure that adds more to it, with it being a personal touch.
no subject
[Prompto's a bro but even that would be going a little far for them.]
Either way, if he's happy, it's no big deal.
no subject
[ Of this sort of variety, anyway, which is... relatable. ]
But it makes him happy, so all the better for it.
no subject
Anyway. [Ahem. A little belatedly:] You're Honerva, right?
no subject
Yes, that is so. I hope that I have not been too overly familiar, Prince Noctis.
[ It just makes her glad to know Prompto has support from people like him. ]
no subject
[The curse is quiet, a mix of surprise and mild, irritated embarrassment. He told her about that?]
Uh, I'll take that over the alternative. Not like I'm royalty here.
no subject
[ With such a large representation from Eos present, how could he not be considered royalty among them. And for herself, she was always far more likely to defer than uncover any titles she may have held, despite the few that had pressed her for them, so she could understand that much. ]
Still, that is your call, of course.
no subject
Whatever, doesn't matter. There's just no point in making a big deal of it, that's all.
[So long as no one's bowing and cooing in deference, it's just a title.]
no subject
Fair enough. Then I am glad to get to know you better on your own terms, Noctis.
no subject
Sure, same to you. [He scratches his fingers along Kova's back, a bit of gentle self-therapy.] Kova's yours, right?
no subject
That he is. Although I wonder that if he could speak, he would state that it was the other way around.
[ It's said lightly enough that even for strangers, it might seem a joke. ]
