I'm afraid we're short on anything resembling meat at the moment, but I don't think you'll have any complaints.
[There's something... a little mischievous in that look of his, though, as he taps his fingers against his elbows and looks out over the lake.]

Are you testing my eating skills, buddy? What'd you make, anyway?

[You better not.]

[ Noctis is visibly crestfallen at the mention that there won't be meat -- so how can he have no complaints? IGNIS, WHAT'S IN THE BAG? ]
