SEVEN ✻ NETWORK
did you guys know that chocobos have been hatching this month??
they're only the most adorable thing i've ever witnessed
(it happens every year prompto grow up LISTEN I KNOW THAT)
look at this cute bastard: 3rr_Jlo.mp4
now here's a story
it's a bit of a tear jerker so you've been ~*warned*~
one of the mama chocobo at the petting zoo was pretty sick and
after she laid a single egg she had to be put down
we tried putting the egg in the other nests but it wouldn't fly with the other chocobo
instead we made our own nest and put lights to it to keep it warm
i don't know if it was the artificial warming up or what
but when this egg hatched it's the tiniest chicobo i've seen in my life
and i love it so much
here's a pic of us being the best of friends: 434_4Jt.png
he's not getting on too well with the rest of the chicks and
okay i'm gonna sound like a paranoid parent but
is he getting bullied???
every time i go by the pen he just jumps to my shoulder and hides
in my clothes or just hangs out on my head (go ahead make your jokes)
when my shift is over he gives me the saddest chirp kweh wark ever
so TL;DR what does a chocobo need to be happy and what does it need
when it's just a wee chick i'm not saying i'm keeping him but maybe i am

[is it...]
no subject
you in your room?
no subject
[But...! Soon enough, one of the secret wall knock messages rings out. He's chosen what they whimsically decided was "hey what's up?"]
no subject
[...its head fits through. seems like whenever etro went in, she made the hole bigger]
Hey, I think he actually could go through.
no subject
It's tiny!
[because the picture didn't already convey that enough??? okay Lalli.]
It won't get its feathers caught on anything?
no subject
[prompto pushes a bit more, and the bird hops right through the hole. hopefully lalli catches him with his hands!]
Oh! You got 'im?
no subject
Chocobo hole...
[His voice is...vaguely filled with awe? This is going to be a problem when the runt isn't so tiny and still wants to visit him, which is probably wishful thinking, but let him dream, depression!!!]
...Have you been thinking about names?
no subject
[he sits down on the bed and looks through the hole. he's smiling]
Guess you're official babysitter status for when I'm not around.
no subject
...Nn.
[He's delighted...and overwhelmed...]
no subject
He's so tiny... It's okay if he stays for now, right? He doesn't have a mama, nor any siblings.
[:(]
no subject
He's sure little chocobo chick will be happy with that.]
Keep guilting me and maybe I'll never give him back.
no subject
[prompto tapes at the wall multiple times]
I'll drop him in through the hole when I'm leaving for work, and text you 'bout it so you know! Does that work?
no subject
Yes. Ah -- I saw I don't have to be careful about the school stuff anymore. He took it well. How do you feel?
no subject
[he leans against the wall, fidgeting with his fingers]
I feel better, too.
He's been really supportive and it feels nice not to -- lie.
no subject
Yeah. I don't think you could have done that for long. You'd break up all from the inside.
no subject
[...he actually had a fight with noctis over lying right in this room. he wonders if lalli overheard?]
[he frowns a bit]
Can I have m'chocobo back?
[the chocobo is chirping and warking a little frantically]
no subject
Oh.
[...He doesn't really want to, but there's no reason other than that to not do as he's asked, so back the chocobo goes through the hole. Prompto's desires were far more important than his own.]
Here. You should name him soon.
no subject
Yeah. Finding a name's hard.
[...]
When the egg hatched, I was right there. D'you think it's gonna be super dependent now?
no subject
[says the idiot sounding wistfully disappointed about no longer having a baby to hold.]
I think that's a thing. But if I watch him while you work, it should get better. I felt better about Grandma watching me while my parents were shopping and stuff, after a while.
no subject
[he smiles some, petting the chocobo] I go to work in a couple hours, so I'll drop him off with you, yeah?
no subject
[He shifts, laying against the wall with a dull clunk instead.]
...Th...ank you. [UH] I don't really know what for. Lots of stuff, I guess, it just felt right.
