Anyone here a tech wizard?

Or decently competent?

I need someone to help teach the natives, and maybe refugees who don't know much about it, the wonders of the web and the awesome things it can be used for. We gotta get the populace all fired up for the technological revolution!

You'd not only get a good paying job, but you'd be promoting education or some shit, too!

[Someone's launching his website soon and wants a consumer base to target.]

[ Noctis is quiet for a few seconds, lots to consider ]

How clothed are we talking?

[tightbod_bigrod]

Whatever you feel comfortable with. But I wouldn't expect to make a lot of money if you're dressed like you're going to Icicle Inn. You wanna give the people something.

[sleepsalot]

I could do shirtless...

[ There's a bit of hesitation, mostly due to his own insecurities. He doesn't want his scars on display, but Prompto knows that. Nobody needs to see his back, anyway. ]

I'll talk to Prompto and set something up, I guess. Don't see why not.

[tightbod_bigrod]

Works for me. You could always decide to do more later if you wanted.

[Those two did seem like... well, sheltered teens? He guessed? As far as 'sheltered' he mostly hung out with Rufus, and he was not sheltered in any normal way, so dealing with them and watching them fidget and hesitate was out of his norm. Even with Rude he wasn't concerned about whipping out his dick.

But he needed his photographer so he needed to be a little more cautious.

Still, they were guys. Maybe he could get them riled up and excited for it later, and get them to do a bit more.]

[sleepsalot]

Yeah, we'll see about that.

[ He has no intention of doing more later. At least, not now.

Reno is right to assume they were sheltered teens because they absolutely were. Noctis is royalty, and while he was given his own apartment and allowed to live a relatively normal life as a teen - going to a public school, working a part-time job at a sushi place - he also had royal obligations and was held to a certain standard at every second. He was rarely alone - Ignis always minding his affairs, Gladio watching his moves - and Prompto was his lone friend. They played video games in their free time.

So, yeah, sheltered is putting it lightly, and probably not at all what Reno would expect were he to pry. ]

Like I said, I'll talk to Prompto and we'll set something up. We've done fully clothed photoshoots, so this won't be... too different.

[tightbod_bigrod]

Kid really likes his photos, huh?

[He'd definitely gotten that impression since first meeting him.]

He's practically a golden chocobo.

[sleepsalot]

A golden chocobo? [ He can't help but laugh ] Never heard him called that before.

[ Noctis takes a deep breath, thinking for a moment. ]

Prompto loves his camera. We took several jobs photographing some locations around Lucis for some guy who had a magazine; he loved that. Woke me up early a few times when we were camping for some photoshoots, one involving me in front of a giant catoblepas. Thing could've easily killed me, but I let him get the shots before running for my life.

[tightbod_bigrod]

Not sure what that is, but I think I get the gist.

Huh. Maybe I'll have to take him out of the studio sometimes. Wouldn't want him to get stuck in a rut.

[sleepsalot]

[ Noctis is quiet for a moment, thinking about what Reno said regarding taking Prompto out of the studio. ]

Maybe he can take some shots of me outdoors? That’s where most of the photos he’s taken of me have been, with the exception of the ones he manages to get in the car or a hotel room.

[tightbod_bigrod]

Sure, I don't see why not. Just make sure they're something worth seeing.

[Honestly, it didn't cost him anything either way. The website space was free regardless, so it wasn't like he had to worry about bandwidth costs.]

[sleepsalot]

Yeah, don't worry about that. [ A pause ] Good luck marketing the website, I guess. Hope you're able to find a tech wizard.
