Hm...that's quite a clever idea, actually. I imagine such a thing will take concentration, particularly without experience. Perhaps I'll have to take some time to consider the method itself.

[carbungle]

Concentration, for sure. Don't give up if it doesn't work right away, either. Magic's a pain in the ass sometimes, you know that.

[scourgingstars]

I certainly do know that quite well. Likely it will take a fair few attempts before I manage to piece it together, I presume I lack a lot of the finer control that the rest of you have.

[carbungle]

It's cute that you think that's what it is. It's mostly instinct, though.

[scourgingstars]

Instinct I never had the need to develop, so it still manages to seem impressive to me. You could have just played along. 'Why yes, Ardyn, I am quite good at this, thank you for noticing'.

[gosh, noctis.]

[carbungle]

Why yes, Ardyn, I am amazing, thanks for reminding me.

[gosh, fine.]

[scourgingstars]

See, was that so difficult?

[carbungle]

Hardest moment of my life. I'm telling Dad you're giving me grief.

[scourgingstars]

That would be a critical mistake on your part. I'm quite certain he'd dare take my side on this.

[carbungle]

Ugh, you're the worst.

[mumble grumble with zero vitriol attached.]

[scourgingstars]

I'm unimaginably cruel. Openly conspiring against you.

[carbungle]

Alright, alright.

[No more of that!]

Think she'll say yes?

[scourgingstars]

I-…well, she didn’t seem strictly against the concept?

[good job noct now he’s Worried.]

Oh, what if she doesn’t want it? I don’t even know half of what I’m doing in the first place, I don’t know how well I could even help her utilize it if she does say yes.

[carbungle]

[He's so good at that. Anyway, first things first:]

Well, so what if she didn't want it? Not everyone wants power, or has a use for it. If she said thanks, but no thanks, what would it change for you?

[Ardyn doesn't strike him as the type to get salty about someone refusing an offer for help. God knows Noct has refused him plenty of times already for little things, mostly because Ardyn offers to help with like, everything.]

[scourgingstars]

Well…nothing? I wouldn’t love her any less or something absurd like that, if anything I’d worry there was too little of worth I could provide for her.

[carbungle]

...Dumbass.

[If he's not allowed to do it, neither are you.]

[scourgingstars]

What is it this time?

[carbungle]

Too little of worth, seriously? Can you imagine her saying that?

[scourgingstars]

Well...no, of course not. It's not that she would say as much, but it would be how I felt regardless.

[carbungle]

[Astrals give him strength.]

Aaaand that's why you're a dumbass.
