[Suspiciously, he has his hands behind his back when she first approaches, his lantern carefully placed at his feet so it doesn't accidentally puncture anything.]
[ Oh... are her cheeks ever so flushed? Yes. Yes, they are, because she's not used to people openly recalling her birthday. She's not used to celebrating this particular day, hasn't really done so since she was a little girl. It's a strange, warm feeling, honestly. ]
[Of course he had remembered her birthday. What kind of friend would he be if he hadn't?]
Not as sweet as you.
[He hadn't been doing the best job of hiding them behind his back - but he pulls out a small bouquet of wild flowers that he had found and picked during his time in the forest.]
I'm sorry I couldn't get you a proper present. But I saw these and they made me think of you.
[ He'd still be her very best one even if he hadn't remembered, thanks. ]
Liar. No one could be as sweet as you are.
[ Okay, Lunafreya is a sucker for flowers, and she is over the moon at the lovely selection that he's taken the time to pick out for her. Gingerly, she takes them and holds them close as though they're the most special things in the world. ]
Noctis, they are beautiful! Thank you very much, these are perfect. I love them.
[Fortunately - or maybe unfortunately, depending on how you looked at it - there were a few things in this world he could forget. Her birthday was one of them.]
Not as beautiful as you.
[Okay, maybe he sounded a tiny bit like a broken record, but it was true. She was stunning and nothing else was ever going to come close.]
You're welcome, Luna. I got Iggy to make us a cake later. And whatever you want for dinner. All you gotta do is let him know.
[ She's almost forgotten what it's like to be treated like this, honestly. His words make her giggle, and she hugs that little bouquet close. ]
You are being far, far too kind.
[ She thinks that's a little bit excessive, though. She can think of at least ten people who are far lovelier than herself, Noctis being one of those. ]
That is very kind of both of you. I don't want to make the poor man work on my account, though.
[ It's not kind nor merciful, she doesn't need to hear what you two are doing, thanks, ugh. ]
Why am I not surprised? This is very early for you to be up. [ She laughs and takes his hand, walking alongside him. ] And to think, you forced yourself awake all for my sake. I am the luckiest woman in this world.
[It's a short trip, through the downstairs of the cabin and up the stairs to where their rooms are located. Until he leads her into the one he shares with Prompto.
It's pretty easy to tell which bed is his by the sheer number of blankets and pillows, but when he drags her down into it it's incredibly comfortable.]
[ Because she wouldn't want to be anywhere else. She grins as they go tumbling into bed together, and she wastes no time in curling up against the poor man as close as she can possibly get. ]
[He wraps himself around her, only shifting once to reach down and grab the blankets, tugging them up and over. Somehow, he makes an incredible cuddle partner. All warm and soft, holding her tight and close.]
Birthday naps are the best. [Until Ignis decides to come wake them up.]
[ Luna is very comfortable right now, and he is in fact the best cuddle partner. She hasn't really had many to go by, but this is wonderful and she's just going to... use him as a pillow. A big, warm, living pillow.
She drops her head down, burying her face into the hollow of his throat. ]
Yes, they are. This was a wonderful idea. [ Her voice is muffled and she already sounds half asleep. ]
[Honestly, he has had that many either. Cuddling down into his father when he had been a child didn't count. But he had used Ignis and Prompto for his own selfish cuddling needs pretty often while they'd been on the road. He'd learned a thing or two.]
All of my idea's are wonderful. [But it comes out soft and jumbled, considering he yawns directly in the middle of it.]
text; @kingsknight backdated to her birthday
By the bounce house
text --> action
[ She's got to brush her hair and try to do what she can with it, okay. But a few moments later she's outside by the bounce house as promised. ]
Good morning, Noctis.

[ Read: she really appreciates that man, okay. ]
no subject
[Did he just?
Say that?
To Luna???
Fuck. Everything.]
I mean... it's very sweet of him. To cook for everyone. He's a sweet guy. Yeah. We should go inside.
no subject
[ Yep, she's gonna brush right past that comment, thanks. ]
Of course. Let's be on our way, then.
no subject
Yeah. [He offers her his hand, waiting for it to be taken before heading back in the direction of the house.] I could really use a nap.

You're worth it. [There wasn't much that could actually drag him out of bed this early. Luna was, apparently, one of those things.] Take one with me?
no subject
You are going to give me cavities, Noctis. [ Honestly, he's being far too sweet to her... she squeezes his hand and nods. ] I would love nothing more.
no subject
Your room or mine?
