[ Only the top of his perfectly styled bedhead is visible on the screen as he stares at nothing in particular, trying to take in everything around him.
He doesn't like that the ugly little phone he's holding is called a magi-tech.
Noctis isn't sure where to start, isn't 100% sure that the explanation he received upon his arrival wasn't the result of Ardyn continuing to fuck with him despite being on the cusp of reaching the Crystal. The man is, after all, capable of so much. He left his friends behind, overwhelmed by daemons, and stepped foot on the elevator... over and over and over again, Ardyn's voice ringing in his ears, taunting him. That's why he went through the door, that's why he's where he is now.
Admittedly, he didn't fully pay attention at his orientation. He's tired, and he's used to other people (see: Ignis) paying attention for him when it mattered, but he's still almost 75% sure that this is Ardyn's doing. Somehow.
He clears his throat, not bothering to adjust the camera. ]
I'm--
[ He pauses for a second, rethinks asking for more info on his current whereabouts. He's a little wary and he doesn't want to say too much, so he ends up sighing, scrapping whatever he was going to say, and mutters to himself instead. ]
Man, I could really go for some of Iggy's cooking right now. Or a soft bed.

Dick shaped popsicles.
Dick shaped lollipops.
Dick waffles filled with cream.
Sausages, squid, octopus balls... You name it, they had it.
I figure someone oughtta tell you before you run into surprise dicks. Some would probably even tell you that you've already run into a big dick, and to them I say, "Fuck you, asshole".
It's been a pretty welcoming place, all in all.

I've already run into a big dick? Who might that be, you?

[ Noctis was told what the response would be and asked anyway, so this one is definitely on him. Not that he's going to admit that or anything. ]
[Text]
...In a couple days, maybe.

What's stopping you from taking me on this tour today?
[Text]
I'll do it when I get home.

[ What did this guy do, rob somebody? Steal something? Greatly fuck something up? Noctis knows Ignis would probably tell him to just leave the guy alone, don't engage, knowing less is better, etc... But he just can't help it. Turns out, it's difficult to control impulses without his advisor and his shield. ]
What are you on the run for?
[Text]
Not everyone appreciated it.

But it might not be my favorite. I'm pretty fond of steaks and kabobs, too.

[ Reno is really making a great first impression with Noctis. ]

[ What would Prompto say? #SorryNotSorry? ]

I think the wife was worried I'd steal her hubby.
Don't deserved to be hunted by Mr. First Class SOLDIER because of it!
[Text]
[ Does he even want to know who Mr. First Class SOLDIER is? Against his better judgment, Noctis decides to follow the first text up with a second. ]
Don't know who Mr. First Class SOLDIER is.
[Text]
[Okay, so he was being dramatic and he knew it, but being a little over the top was his style.]
Sephiroth. The strongest SOLDIER on our world... great war hero.
[It was a bit hard to list him by his previous attributes. People thought of him a lot differently these days, but as irresponsible as he could be at times, he didn't mess around with this. He wouldn't post things that Sephiroth might find.]
And lots of top secret info surrounding the rest of his life that I'm not going to be responsible for leaking.
[Text]
Guess I'll have to figure it out on my own. Great war hero? Can't be that bad.
[Text]
[Because, being a Turk, he does browse around what other people are posting. He may be a dumbass, but he's a professional dumbass.
And it seemed like Noctis was going to get his own serving of the great war hero.]
Good luck with that.
[Text]
Still don't know much about him, but he doesn't look like too much of a threat.
[ He's fairly certain he's dealt with worse. After all, he's gone up against a god. ]

[ Thanks for the advice, Reno. Noctis doesn't really know what else to say - interactions with people outside of his friend group aren't always the easiest - so he just closes the magi-comm and sticks it back in his pocket. ]
