[Heck yeah it is! His free hand lifts without hesitation to bump it lightly up against hers, letting her do most of the lean-in so he doesn't accidentally send her flying backwards. He then dismisses his sword and lets them drop back to the ground off the wall, still very much blown away.]
That's... so cool. I can't believe it. [He's gotta tell Pyra later. ...Oh, but first-] Wanna go again?
[He's got plenty of magic left, no reason why he can't give her a proper ride.]
[Pap-pap and away we goooo. Vianca held on to his pocket cup as they dropped, her flower floating up like they were on a power-drop ride. whoooOOOOO--!!
Vianca wasn't exactly what one would call a 'thrill-seeker' in any way. There was something to be said for thrills that could happen from the safety of a luxury pocket though, and even more for the opportunity to Help. This was a helpful thing, right? They were building confidence and practicing! Very important things to do. And also, that had been... fun.
So his question was met with another positive nod and a squeak. Yes!]
[Hell yeah. With a big grin and another flash of blue light, he flings his blade- and whoosh, off they go. He's gonna take her on a wild romp all the way around the plaza, rooftop to rooftop, until they get dizzy or he runs out of magic.
It was an extremely exciting time, and very fun, but very much not a sensation was used to. Eventually she had to concede before it started being not fun anymore, reaching up to pat at Noctis' chest. Were there comical swirls in her eyes when he looked down? No, maybe it was just easy to imagine those, but her head was bobbling around in a dizzy little circle.
[He's about to go for another warp when he notices the pat, and when he sees her wobbling, he thinks better of it and instead heads to the edge of the roof, sitting himself down to give them both a breather. He reaches up to his pocket, offering his hand to her if she needs someone to hold her steady while she climbs out- and to set her down if she'd like to change back.]
[She will do this, thank you. One newtonian liquid pikmin, sliding right out of your pocket there. There's a little bit of teetering once she's on solid ground, so when she changed back she plopped right against his side.]
...
[Give her a sec.]
... You did it! [She sounds very proud and also kind of like someone who just stumbled off a really crazy roller coaster.]
That'd be cool. Might be a while before that happens, though- I'm actually pretty tired now. Usually doesn't take that much out of me.
[Honestly he's wondering if the only reason he isn't more tired is that the theory about magic being powered in part by touch, in lieu of the Crystal being here, is actually legit. Pocket battery could be too real.
Regardless-]
I've got a long way to go. But... thanks. It's good to know I don't have to go it alone.
Of course, practice takes time. I am also a little... [She lifted her hand to make a small, wavy up and down motion. That's her.] I will need practice too.
[He would never say it aloud, but it's weirdly comforting, knowing someone else feels like they're kind of rubbish at some things. Things they should be good at. Some days it's the same way with Prompto, when nerves and anxiety and the inner voice of not good enough are a familiar but unspoken blanket that drapes over them, and he can feel a bit more like a normal person instead of the prince with the eyes of the world ever upon him, with a destiny he's ill-prepared for shoving him into the next trial. He has someone to look at and go, oh, you too?
It's shitty of him, and he doesn't agree of course - not for either of them - but even so, there's a certain level of gratification that comes from hearing it.]
Want me to walk you home? Or you can hang out for a while, or come back to my place. Get in one big dogpile before lunch, my treat.
[Even with himself, Luna, and both the dogs, the bed's big enough that there'd still be room for her. Not like any of them would mind either.]

[Home was still kind of a thing that Vianca didn't want to directly address. It felt like ever since it had been touched on with Doudanuki, the topic had been coming up more and more. It just wasn't worth anyone worrying about! So being given an option right from the get-go was very good.]
I would like to see your place. And give Umbra many pets.
[She didn't know you lived with the pretty lady, Noctis.]

Date: 2019-12-16 11:25 pm (UTC)Yep. Couldn't have done it without you.
[You helped! Good job, pocket buddy.]

Date: 2019-12-16 11:47 pm (UTC)[Spoken as the fact she believed it was. Here is sweet low-five reciprocation though, more practiced than before! Amazing.]
But I am glad I could help. Maybe once you are comfortable with one size, we can try a bigger one.
