The Photo Hut; Monday [05/15].

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto was in a pretty good mood when he bounced down to the shop for work that Monday, still sort of riding the high of a very successful attempt to make Liz's first (totally handwaved) Mother's Day one of the best ones he could make it. It hadn't been perfect, of course; the mint chocolate cake he made and tried to decorate all faaancy like something he'd seen on the internet was a complete disaster, but she didn't seem to mind too terribly and it did taste pretty good even if it looked like a mess. And breakfast in bed, of course (classic!), and a lot of flowers and little gifts and a compiled album of pictures of her and Noctra over the past few months that had actually been a pretty daunting task not only because he was doing it in secret, but because there were....a lot of pictures of Liz and Noctra to have to sort through to find the best ones.

But he thought he did pretty well, and Liz seemed to have really liked it, so he went down to work that morning feeling pretty confident that he was actually kind of maybe crushing this whole Loving Husband and Father thing pretty damn well.

The Photo Hut is open!

It had been a while since Kurt had stopped by the Photo Hut. In fact, it had been before the last school tip when he had gotten new camera supplies. He figured it was time to pay another visit since he was taking another photography class and Prompto was teaching it.

"Good morning," he said a bit shyly as he walked in. It was still a bit odd that Fandom teachers always seemed so available and ready to talk outside of class and everything.

"Oh, hey, Kurt!" Prompto greeted him with a smile as he looked up from the computer to see who'd come in, and shifting his attention from that work to the potential customer or possibly class question. "How's it going? What's up?"

[furrybluefreak]

Well consider it your lucky day cuz it actually was a little of both!

"I wanted to stop by and get some things for class," Kurt said as he held up the camera from class. "Definitely will need some more film and wanted to check out some of the other stuff you have," Kurt said, trying not to think about how most of those photos would at least somewhat feature a certain someone more than likely.

"Almost out of film already, huh?" Prompto asked, brows lifted a little in surprise, and his grin almost a little apologetic. "Don't forget, though, you wanna use the digital function if you can, that's going to make it much easier to share the photos in class, but, hey man, doing it old school,nothing but respect for that! We can definitely get you more film....and maybe an extended memory card, too. Did you need some of that film developed before class tomorrow, too?"

[furrybluefreak]

"Been using a little of both" Kurt said with a small shrug. "Mutti and Vatti don't like using computers and all that much. They prefer 'real photos' as they call them. So I've been taking a lot on film to send off to them. I do have a couple of rolls to be developed but there's no rush on that."

"With how quickly it sounds like you've been going through film," Prompto said, his grin approving and, boy, did he know the feeling, "we should probably look into getting you a good carrying case, or something. We do have some pretty cool ones, if I do say so myself!"

He'd definitely been leading the charge on make sure of it, after all, getting in lots of colors and styles and designs.

Around lunchtime Liz came downstairs with Noctra, she had really enjoyed herself yesterday and it had been nice being able to celebrate her first Mother’s Day with Prompto.

“Hi,” she smiled brightly, “how is everything down here?”

[hashtag_chocobro]

"Hi," Prompto grinned back as he looked up from his work for pretty much the best interruption he could ask for. "Pretty good, pretty steady, nothing too new or exciting, which, you know, around here, is probably what you want. How is everything up there?"

Eyes rolling toward the ceiling, of course, to indicate the apartment.

Liz smiled brightly as Noctra coord happily, “oh I’m glad things are good here, we had a pretty good morning, Noctra really enjoyed her feed this morning, she wasn’t fussy at all,” she said fondly.

[hashtag_chocobro]

"Always the best girl for her mom," Prompto smiled, happy and pleased by this news, before his arms went up. "Think she'll want a change in scenery, spend a little time down here with me?"

[flamesburned]

Noctra let out a happy squeal at that and she started to lift her arms up, "I think that's a yes," she said with a smile as she carefully handed her over to Prompto, "it sounds like she's looking forward to it,"

[hashtag_chocobro]

"Awwww." Reaction like that? Were so not fair, and Prompto couldn't help beaming from ear to ear as he got up to carefully take Noctra from Liz. Maybe leaning in to steal a quick kiss, too, before his attention shifted entirely to the baby he bounced a little in his hands before settling her down in his arms. "Did you miss me while I was down here, slaving away? I missed you, too, nugget."

[flamesburned]

Liz happily returned the kiss as she watched the two of them, Noctra cooing away happily, "she missed you a lot," she smiled fondly, "she really looks forward to coming downstairs, she definitely knows when she's coming down here," she added.

[hashtag_chocobro]

"Yeah," Prompto agreed, almost automatically bringing his hand to tickle Noctra's stomach a little and let her try to play a little Catch the Fingers. "I read that this is about the time when they really start to understand schedules and that it's important to keep one, so that makes a lot of sense."

[flamesburned]

Liz nodded and smiled fondly as she watched Prompto and Noctra, "I can definitely see how that would be helpful," Noctra gurgled happily in response as she was rather fascinated by Prompto's fingers, "especially as she starts to go outside more and see new locations," she considered.
