The Photo Hut; Monday [12/04].

[hashtag_chocobro]

Prompto had a few last minute Christmas card gigs over the weekend that the wanted to pump out and finish up as soon as possible that morning, but once those were taken care of, his attention turned to the shop as a whole, with a squinting, thoughtfully rubbing his chin sort of manner. Gift ideas. He was trying to think of ways to really combine a few things and promote them as gift ideas, or at least feature things that would be popular as gifts to feature toward the front of the store. Frames were the easy ones, he could throw together some pretty cool 'beginner's kits' of accessible cameras and accessories, and then use some ribbon to sort of combo them up, but what about less tangible stuff? Gift certificates for photography lessons or services or photoshoots, things like that? Digital conversion for all your old photographs? Printing out all of your digital photographs?

Once he got really thinking about it, the rest seemed to just fall into place, so he was pretty busy that day, throwing together sets and printing up signs, and singing Christmas carols under his breath, not because the island was compelling him or anything like that, Prompto just really liked singing and Christmas songs.

The Photo Hut is open!

Now that there didn't seem to be random music playing everywhere, Noctra had more than made up for her lack of sleep of Friday and Saturday and was a lot more alert as they came downstairs around lunchtime.

"hi," Liz smiled as she came down, "are we interrupting anything?"

"Hi," Prompto grinned over at Liz and Noctra when they arrived. "No, not really, just trying to think of good sets to put together. You know, for Christmas presents? You don't know if we have any extra ribbo---oh my god."

Prompto cut himself off with a widening of his eyes as inspiration had clearly struck.

"We should use old film instead of ribbons for presents! How cute would that be??"

“Oh that would be amazing,” Liz said with a smile and Noctra cooed in agreement.

“I think we should have some old film out the back as well,” she considered.

"Perfect," Prompto said, with a proud little grin over his brilliant idea, his eyes roving over the decorations they'd put up last week, "we should add some what we've got put up, too, really specialize it to the shop, you know? I bet I could make some cool little dangling ornaments out of some lenses, too...."

His eyes returned to Liz and Noctra again with a grin, and he held out his hands in the eventual offer to take the baby from her for a little bit to give her a break. "How was she this morning?"

“I think we could definitely do that,” Liz grinned, “it would definitely be something unique,” she said and then she carefully passed Noctra over, “she hasn’t been too bad this morning, not as fussy as she was over the weekend,” she told him.

"Heeeeeey, there, nugget!" Prompto said as he carefully took Noctra from Liz and let out a little bit of an exaggerated grunt as he lifted her up and bounced her a little in his hands. "Big nugget, did you also grow all weekend, too?"

She giggled at that, blowing out a raspberry at Prompto, a raspberry that Prompto promptly returned before settling her against his chest, against his hip.

"I'm glad she's doing better this morning. Now that we're in December, we're probably in for a ride with how all the stuff that happens might end up affecting her, you know?"

Liz watched them fondly, "hopefully there's not too many more days where there's loud noises, even though if it follows the usual pattern, we may have to watch for things falling from the sky, I don't think Noctra would like marzipan very much" she said with a fond smile.
