Look!

[Without further preamble, Prompto holds his phone camera back to show what he's got cradled in the crook of his other arm: an egg that looks bigger than a chicken itself, so he for sure didn't get it from inside the station.]

It's a chocobo egg! Chocobo, I just know it! And I did the trick with the shell and the light and there's a baby inside, it's alive!

[He sets the phone down standing up and hugs the egg carefully and happily to his chest, grinning fit to split his face.]

I'm gonna be the best. Chocomom. Ever! I gotta introduce them to the girls downstairs, catch me there if you wanna say hi to baby in person!

[And for those who prefer more action-based interaction, Prompto will, in fact, be in the floor 2 chicken room, his egg held protectively in his lap with an arm always around it while he feeds and chatters to the chickens.

He's also taped a note to the chicken room door:]

ADOPT A CHICKEN!

Chickens are cute and don't grow very big, unlike basilisks and cockatrices. We lay the eggs you eat for breakfast and cook with! So please don't think about cooking us! We love you! Give us names and love us, too!

[For a long moment after seeing the video, all Izunia can think is that it's too bad that Prompto never knew Ardyn before the Scourge and all of everything.

Then he shakes his head at the image and takes a deep breath, and makes his way down to where he's sure Prompto will be hanging out, if he isn't with Noctis. (Sometimes even when he is.)]

I see our little friends are starting to get fairly large.

[That video was probably one of the cutest things ever. Moving down to the chicken room, and seeing the note on the door, that settles in right up there next to it.

Astolfo gives knock to announce his presence, then pushes the door open anyway.]

Hi hi-! Let's see the baby!

[ So Violet just came down here so she could have some dinner away from all the hustle and bustle of the rest of the station and she figured there wouldn't be anyone else down here. Which would be a solid plan, but Violet's eating bread, and there's chickens in here and it... well, it doesn't work out.

Which is how Violet Evergarden, Auto Memoir Doll and merciless tool of warfare has ended up herded into a corner by a whole flock of chickens who are all clucking and fluttering their wings busily at her to get her to please drop some of that bread, thank you. Poor Violet, on her part, actually looks quite perturbed by all this. ]

Excuse me... please let me through.

[ She's addressing them so politely as she tries to step over them, bless her heart. But every time she lifts her foot, the chickens flutter around even more excitedly and there's just nowhere to put it so she can actually move. She's trapped. Goodbye, Violet. ]

[Somehow Jetshard's not even surprised that the kid's got his hands on an unhatched specimen of his favorite animal. The fact that he's just... carrying it around, loose, is a little concerning, though.

Time to go put her imperially mandated expertise to decidedly imperially unsanctioned use, she supposes.]

Quite a find you've turned up, there.

[ Naturally, Noct is here, and he's helping feed the chickens. Every so often, he looks at the egg. ]

Man, who would've thought this place had chocobos?

[ Chocobo? That sounds... soooort of familiar? It's similar to a creature in one of the game series he enjoys playing, back home. Huh. ]

Any ideas on what to name it?

[Well, that gets a wistful smile from this Pokemon trainer.] Do you know how long it'll be until it hatches?

[She looks at the note, tracing the very strange sigils on the bottom of it, before entering.

Oh. Those are chickens then, huh.

She slowly comes over and leans in, staring at a particularly fat one.]

Eggs, hm?

Looks like I'll get to see a baby Chocobo sooner than I anticipated, then.
