The Photo Hut - Thursday

[flamesburned]

There were a lot of boxes when Liz got downstairs that day, so Liz was spending her morning sorting through the new stock that had arrived and updating the inventory as she went through the items. Once the inventory was done she started reorganising some of the display stands, rotating out the stock and figuring out what items needed to go out the back.

It felt like a good day for soup, but soup with a particularly spicy kick for Prompto's heat-loving palate, but it was a bit milder than he might have made it due to his tiny taste-tester not quite being able to get on his spice level just yet.

"Hey, babe," he started, and he and Noctra came down for lunch,"ready for--"

That was when he saw the shipment boxes.

"Uh, oh," he asked with a chuckle, "new stuff?"

Noctra was already excitedly hobbling toward the nearest one and tilting it to peer inside, which she did pretty easily since it was empty, but that didn't stop her from immediately crawling inside of it.

This child spent far too much time with cats.

Liz smiled fondly as she took a break from sorting through the new stock as she looked at Prompto and Noctra before she crawled into the box, "hi," she said, "it looks like all our new stock turned up at once," she told him, "its looking like we got a bit of everything this time too,"

"When it rains, it pours, right?" said Prompto, chuckling again as he changed his course for the box Noctra was in, where he could lightly fold the tops and bent over to pick it up.

"Welp!" he announced lightly. "I was going to stick around and have lunch with you, Liz, but I see we got an urgent package to send out to Insomnia! I better take it into the post office as soon as possible!"

The box giggled, but it also started squirming, which was why he was now promptoly setting it back down on the counter.

Liz giggled at that as Prompto put the box down on the counter, “maybe we should keep a couple of the boxes?” she considered, “I think both Noctra and Rain would get a bit of use out of them,”

There was a long pause.

"....we can build a fort with them," Prompto realized.

"Box fort! Box fort!" cheered the box.

"We'll have to clean it all up before the party on Sunday," Prompto noted, "but that still gives us..."

He took a second to use his fingers. Don't judge.

"...at least two days."

Liz grinned, “I think that’s a perfect amount of time for a box fort,” she said, “I think with all the boxes we could make a pretty large one,” she added.

"Only one way to find out!" Prompto grinned, as he opened the box to lift Noctra out of it and set her back down on the floor again....only to have her go scampering off to scope out another one. "We'll get started on hauling all these up after lunch."

And now that he wasn't distracted by boxes or toddlers to mail, he had to ask, with a bit of forced casual disinterest, "Anything particularly good come in?"

Liz grinned, “we got some of those small cameras that seem to be quite popular,” she told him, “they look rather interesting,”
