MHA #10 - Tuesday Evening

[notagoose]

So Goose had a dinner date with Ignis, which was an attempt to make up for the other week when he had seemingly lost all of the cooking skills that Ignis had taught him. Once his class was over in the morning, Goose had spent most of the day preparing dinner for this evening and making sure that it went a lot smoother than the attempts that he had had over the previous weekend,

He decided to go with the recipe that had nearly caused him to burn down the kitchen but this time seemed to go a lot more smoothly and there were no frying pan related incidents this time round.

He even decided to try his hand at desert and make chocolate chip and strawberry cheesecake bites.

Eventually it was time for the date itself, so Goose set everything up, the food was prepared and ready to go and had selected what outfit he wanted to wear.

He was trying not to feel nervous but at least this time round he hadn’t burned the apartment down?

[for Ignis!]

Even though he tried, Goose couldn’t help his expression from faltering just a little.

“Oh,” he said quietly and then stared down at his wine, trying to come up with a better response then that, “I …oh,”

He didn’t have a better response and wow that wine was really fascinating.

And that response (or lack thereof) was far worse than if Shane had had so much more to say about it.

"I will try," he said, "to find a few pockets of time here and there. If...if you'd like. It's just...well, I suppose there's no harm in telling you, they're likely to make it public soon, anyway, but part of the treaty involves an engagement...and subsequent marriage...between Noctis and the lady Lunafreya. I'm sure you can imagine how involved at of that is going to be."

Not to mention just dealing with Noctis himself, when he hears the news.

Goose looked up from his wine, “I …I understand,” he finally said, “I hope it’s successful,” he said quietly, “the only weddings I’ve seen are the ones on Tri-D,” he admitted, “at least some of the more extravagant ones,”
