[Accidental Audio - backdated to 25th]

[There's the sound of someone running. It's not night, so he's not being chased by monsters, he's just exercising and clearing his head. He stops, a little breathless and speaks aloud to himself.]

Oh hey, it's the twenty-fifth!

[There's a pause as he pulls out his phone to take a selfie, and there's a camera shutter noise as he does.]

There! Birthday picture!

[He sounds cheerful.]

I'm afraid I don't know what cho-ko-bows are, and I'm assuming the four of you are you and your friends.

[She smiles.]

Why don't you tell me about them? Both of those subjects of yours.

Okay, yeah! So uh, chocobos are big fluffy birds. They're really the best animal ever. [He laughs softly.] They're very soft, and very cute and I got to see a whole bunch of them at a ranch.

[It seems as though there are some topics that don't make him at all nervous.]

Yeah, so the four of us were traveling together. We're pretty good friends now. There's Iggy- I mean, Ignis. He's Noct's advisor and he cooks for us and does all the planning and stuff.

And Gladiolus, he's Noct's shield and mostly keeps us alive. [He laughs.] He's great at talking to people, you know?

Noct - I mean, Noctis, is my best friend. [Prompto grins.] We, uh, started hanging out in high school and that's it! He's the crowned prince of Lucis, but that's not why or anything, I think we just both needed a friend and anyway, I'm on the Crownsguard 'cause he asked me. So I'm not like, important like Gladio and Iggy.

Well to me, that sounds like you keep very good company. And your prince friend, Noctis, sounds like a very good person. He's lucky to have a friend like you backing him up.

[She looks at him almost like a reprimand when she says her next sentence.]

Besides, you must be important if he asked you to join him.

[Back to a smile, then a look at her phone as it beeps.]

Well, It looks like I should be getting ready for work. Happy birthday. I hope to see you around.

Uh huh! Th-thanks! You too!

[He smiles and waves.]
