Island Living
Who: Prompto, Ignis, OTA
What: Various things!
When: Various times! Can be over a period of days
Where: Around Enso and Islet #1
Warnings: Awkwardness
Building Time! - OTA, Islet #1 Cabin #2
After getting some tips from Kid, Prompto went back to the cleverly named Islet #1 to help try and build a cabin for the guys. It went without saying that he, Noct and Ignis were going to stay together. It was hard to imagine it being any other way - the only confusion was wondering if Nyx would be joining them.
Other than that, it was mostly a group of city boys trying to figure out how to put it together. Gathering supplies, moving stones, deciding where to put a cooking pit, what to use the tarps for... There was a lot of figuring out to do.
Not to mention they weren't the only one. Prompto worried less about people like Kid and more about the actual kids on the island. Sure, they wanted to have their shelter to sleep in, but if they finished it could they really plop down for bed and leave some kid stranded outside?
And, perhaps something Prompto worried about more than the others, there were the girls. Some of them seemed tough as nails or had magic or something else to take care of themselves, but there were also ladies like Terra, who seemed to lost and confused, and J, who seemed more like a city person. He was just fortunate that he was with a group of guys that he wouldn't have to argue with - they would give up their space to help someone else for a while, no doubt about that. They weren't the only ones out here trying to figure out where they'd be sleeping.
While he was carrying a stone over to their spot he paused for a second next to someone, asking softly, "Hey, you okay?"
Weavers Unite - OTA, Enso
After learning about weaving, Prompto had gotten himself some palm fronds to work with and was trying to figure them out. It was a whole new art to him, so they were loose and awkward as he worked on it, made with hands that weren't confident in what they were doing.
Was it too thick? It seemed like weaving the leaves together was making a solid slat almost rather than a fishing net. His initial plan had been to make something to fish with, but it was looking more like something to put on the roof of a hut. It was just sort of straight and stiff not at all a bag.
Maybe that wasn't something to complain about. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he looked it over to figure out what he was doing.
Hunting - OTA, Enso
Prompto usually used ranged weapons, but that didn't mean he couldn't melee. Taking along a knife from his group, he decided to catch some food today rather than trying to climb another tree. Today's menu? Snaplings. They looked enough like crabs that Prompto figured they probably tasted like them, too.
If he could just used his gun this would be a piece of cake. How his fingers itched to be on the trigger as he crouched down behind some rocks and kept an eye on some potential prey, knife in hand. If he was careless it could get away. If he did this right? Maybe they'd get a nice snapling soup tonight. And maybe those shells could be used for something, too...
Coffee - Closed to Ignis, Ruins, Backdated
Just as the Storyteller had promised, Prompto awoke to several potted coffee plants lined up in the ruins. Not only were they already covered in beans, but there seemed to be a bunch of seeds to go with him. He didn't know anything about coffee. He didn't know how many plants it took to keep one coffee drinker satiated, or how to make coffee without a coffee pot, or how long they took to grow from seeds, but still he was ecstatic. He just wanted to show Ignis what they had. He'd even made sure to ask that they be the same kind of beans that were used in Ebony! He did good.
Naturally, Ignis had gotten up well before he did, though he had no way to know something like that was sitting in the ruins. Ignis was always the first to be up and ready, getting breakfast ready for them when they were still tossing and turning. It wasn't exactly hard to find the other man.
He jogged up excitedly, grabbing lightly at Ignis' sleeve as he spoke, "Hey, Iggy! I have to show you something!"
His tone was most definitely lighter than it had been for many things recently, what with how much they were dealing with.
Dirty Boy - OTA, Enso, the scandalous prompt?
Prompto did like bath time, and not having a tub was definitely not cool. He had no intention of going around smelling like the King of Garbage, especially not when there were pretty girls walking around. So while he was out and about and seemed to have some amount of privacy, he decided to take a dip in the river. And he went in naked. He'd be in and out in a jiffy, after all!
So there he was, minding his own business scrubbing with his clothes kind of sort of in a somewhat 'neatish' pile on the shore.

SI
[ That would be nice. She's joking, of course. This heat wave needs to end ASAP though. ]
If I catch something I'll bring it over later.
no subject
[And she would have one puppy bouncing after her, trying his best to be super cool and not a dork and all too willing to do whatever to make her comfy.]
