these are nice pictures
great lighting

[He knows nothing about photography but these are legitimate compliments regardless.]

you guys really are close friends.

thanks! and we are!
he's the first real friend i ever got

from what it sounds like, it's like you two are practically glued at the hip
and you're good at photography, but that makes sense.
you're studying it, after all

[it's not glued at the hip, it's... it's something else entirely]

it's just a couple of selfies

[finding home in a place that never felt like home, because he finally found someone whom he felt he belonged with, only to almost lose noctis entirely? it does something to people, about wanting to make up for lost time and all that]

[doesn't he want that with cloud, too? he really does]

we can take selfies some times too right?

[He doesn't quite understand, though perhaps with time he will. It's hard when he can't quite relate, when he doesn't have a friend (a best friend), in the same capacity that Prompto does.

Selfies, though. He's not one for selfies, but it's a simple request, and easy enough to agree to. It's... the potential to have a bit of fun, to bond with family he never knew he had. It's not an obligation, though many others may see it that way. He's curious and he enjoys the company. Maybe a part of him needs the company, or at least needs someone like Prompto who is willing to give it so boundlessly.]

we can take all sorts of selfies if you can make them look just as good.

[the way cloud so easily agrees to everything really helps shatter this initial impression prompto had of his older brother: that he'd be mean and kind of 'too-cool-for-you' about things. turns out, in a fantastic twist, that cloud isn't on the pedestal that prompto had put him on at first.]

[he grins big at his phone and his typing is fast and excited as he sends message after message.]

not to be one of those people but
we got some good genes going on for us
we'll make any
selfie look
GREAT

[he's just excited cloud so easily agrees to be part of this]

good genes, huh?

yeah i guess we do
we can just be "one of those people" for the selfies

where should we start?

[Maybe Prompto can show him around the city more.]
