[When the feed starts up, the only thing visible is a black hooded figure's head and a still-ajar door. Were it not for him speaking up, it would have been hard to tell exactly who it was. Even then, he doesn't offer a name - only a sigh of annoyance before he speaks.]

You know, for a place that tries to be so accomodating, it sure does leave a few tripping hazards.

[He temporarily tries to angle the camera to show what it was that tripped him coming in - a medium-sized package all wrapped in red paper, just inside one of the starter apartments - but considering his own little... handicap, only a corner is seen.]

I was wondering, though - is there an audio version of the reading material? While the girl's voice was helpful, I... can't read them.

[Not through the blindfold wrapped around his eyes, and he didn't want to remove it for his own personal reasons. Not that anyone could see it with his hood up in the first place, or any of his facial features beyond silver hair that escaped its confines in the tumble that was likely heard throughout the entire apartment complex with how thin the walls are.]

...Was hard enough finding my way here.

[The feed ends after a few seconds of fumbling for where the off button ought to be.]

[And a princess of sorts, but only Prompto's going to know that one for a little while. Though for his own sake as well as Mickey's, he'll at least try and maintain the world order.]

We met at my lowest point, before all this. [He means his current lack of sight.] The King- Mickey, saved me.

[It goes beyond what he said, if the forced familiarity he had to remind himself of because Mickey would have otherwise (were he here) said anything. There's a loyalty and camaraderie in his tone just at the thought, even if they parted ways for now.]

Then if I understand correctly, you were not born with a lack of sight.

[That's interesting too. While she's not about to interrogate him over the matter, since it's not relevant to how well he can fulfill his duties, she would admit to harboring a mild curiosity just the same.]

Would that more of those in positions of power exercised that power for the benefit of others.

Right.

[He appreciates not being interrogated about it, and will likely be willing to discuss it at a later date of his own volition. Right now, though - he is still testing the metaphorical waters.]

And agreed.

[That seems to be enough discussion of non-urgent matters. She has work to do, and now that he knows how to access his data files, he probably would like to educate himself.]

Then if there's nothing further.

[Assuming there isn't, she disconnects.]
