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

uh
what

[Now this is the point where he sort of. Loses the ability to explain his frustration.

Because something happened. Except it didn't actually happen. But he remembers it happening. And Noctis explained this so he feels somewhat justified in feeling this way but it's still REALLY confusing.]

Do the birds range in color? Have you seen any black ones? Do they vary in temperament?

Are they attracted to reflective items such as glass?

who hurt you

Our conversation about unfamiliar memories.

I believe I had an unpleasant experience with one of the birds. It stole my glasses.

lmao what

You know that my vision is very poor, it's a serious matter.

I can't have my spectacles being snatched away at any moment. I don't have an extra pair.

are you kidding that is hilarious
you have the most petty grudge over that?
it hasnt even happened here

It was a stressful experience!

don't listen to noct
he doesn't understand
just because he has perfect sight
i would also be upset if i lost my glasses to a thieving chocobo

but i promise this one isn't going to be like that!

...you had a memory about a chocobo?

kiss ass

truth tho

I believe I'm the wrong arse you want to be kissing.

But to answer your question, yes, I did.

deets

[ For once, he wants a memory trigger. Noctis is sincerely hoping he was there for this.

Speak English.

details

I gave them to you, and seeing as you've decided to be cheeky about the whole thing I'll keep the rest of the story to myself.

noct's an idiot ignore him
you're saying you remember chocobos

some other people have remembered chocobos too but..
do you have similar memories to noct? or me??

[Ah, that's right. He hasn't shared this information with Prompto.]

I'm not sure if they're similar memories, but I've had what I thought was a dream which involved the two of you.

I knew what you looked like before we met.

.. you did?

[he wants an ignis memory now. retrospec please?]

wowwwwww that's kinda crazy

Noct has explained it to me already. I'm not quite sure I completely follow how it works, only that it's a cause of Retrospec.

[Or what it means. What he's supposed to do about it. Whether he's supposed to just accept that he had another life in another place with these other people and memories he doesn't actually. Remember. But they're his memories and

It's a lot he doesn't think he should burden Prompto with.]
