The Photo Hut - Tuesday

[flamesburned]

Liz found that she didn’t have too much work to do at the store that day, especially since she had finished the photo album for Prompto that had she had been working on last week.

She decided to focus instead on the Photo Hut’s social media accounts and her own social media accounts as well since it had been a while since she had last updated them, it took her most of the morning to sort through and update them. She really needed to be better about updating them since most of the time she kept forgetting that she had them.

Once she was done with updating the social media accounts, she decided to finish doing some halloween decorating and rearranged a couple of the smaller displays with the new decorations.

Prompto was apparently all about whipping up sandwiches for Liz's lunch, but, hey, he liked sandwiches, they were easy and the clean-up wasn't too bad, and it traveled well from the apartment to the store, as well as being something easy to eat while she worked. And so it was around lunchtime, perhaps a little bit earlier than noon because he was going to head out to do some oh-so-handwavey training at the store with Summer before making sure Gladio wasn't turning into some sort of wildman in the woods, that he came down, big bottle of water and a bag with a couple of sandwiches in hand.

"Water," he started, setting the bottle on the counter with a grin. "Sandwiches." And he handed the bag over with a kiss before he concluded the greeting.

"Hi."

Liz definitely appreciated the greeting as she took the offered bag, especially the kiss, "Hi,” she beamed, “these look amazing, thank you,” she said as she had a look in the bag, “how has your morning been?”

"Kind of lazy," Prompto admitted, with an almost apologetic grin, as he took a moment to just push himself up to sit on the counter as he talked to Liz. "But it wasn't my fault. I somehow managed to get trapped under Rain on the couch, and you know how she can be. She was relentless."

Especially now that she'd discovered the benefit of the scratchiness of that chin beard.

Liz giggled at that as she imagined it, "she's missed you," she told him with a smile, "especially since I've had to be more careful about her climbing on me," she added, "but it's nice to have her back living with us,"

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto felt like it was more of a 'it was nice to have him back living with them' situation, but he certainly wasn't going to mince about the little details. He was, however, going to maybe take a moment to bask, yet again, that any of this was even happening at all.

"Hopefully," he said, "she gets it out of her system. Before too long, she's going to have to share our attentions."

Rain was always really good with other cats, though, she should be pretty good with a baby, too, right?

“Hopefully,” Liz glanced down at her little bump, smiling softly as she placed a hand on it, “I hope she’ll get along well with our daughter,”

She paused, “I mean she gets along really well with other cats,” she considered, agreeing with the narrative, she looked back up at Prompto, “that gives her a good advantage right? To get used to it when our daughter is born,”

Our daughter. She really couldn’t believe how incredible that felt to say.

"And, hey," Prompto chuckled a little, "if they do get along well, just think of how much money we'll save on babysitters! We can just have Rain watch her!"

[flamesburned]

Liz did laugh at that, “Rain would be a very good babysitter,” she smiled fondly as she imagined it, “I like to think they’ll get along well, at least we do have a bit of time to prepare her,”

[hashtag_chocobro]

They did have some time, it was true, but sometimes it didn't feel like a lot of time at all, February would be on them before they even knew it...or maybe Prompto just felt that his grasp on time was tenuous at best since he got back.

"We'll have to make sure she's still getting plenty of attention," he noted. "Although I don't think that will be much of a problem."

Case in point, the entire morning wasted all because she wanted to curl up on his chest.

A truly difficult sacrifice, but one he gladly made.

[flamesburned]

Liz smiled brightly at that, “I don’t think that will be a problem, giving her our attention,” she grinned.

“We’ll also have to make sure she has plenty of cat playdates as well,” she added after she considered what else Rain would enjoy.

[hashtag_chocobro]

"Do you think," asked Prompto, tilting his head thoughtfully, grinning (just a bit) at a fond little thought that arranging playdates for Rain was almost like practice for the playdates he might one day be planning for their daughter, "she'd like to meet some of the shelter cats? I've been thinking about dropping in, seeing Sidon, revisiting my old stomping grounds, maybe I can bring her with me when I do..."

“You know,” Liz smiled as she thought about that idea, “I think Rain would love that, she loves being with a lot of other cats and she doesn’t have much opportunity to do that,”
