[ ignis has had enough. for the last few days everything has been a whirlwind of activity from the moment the sun comes up until the moment they all finally lay down in the tent. it's been two days since they've even been in town let alone a motel and ignis is already feeling fed up from just about all of it. well that and gladio in particular. he's been getting a good few sidewards looks thrown his way when the other two aren't looking. ignis know gladio is doing it and he's certain that's the whole point.

getting hot under the collar without any way to fix it thanks to prompto and noctis needing things doing every hour of the day. cooking, hunts, driving, cooking... not for the first time ignis pushes his glasses up his nose with an inward sigh, wondering if he should just leave noct and prompto alone with their King's Quest game saves and just drag gladio away...

no, that wouldn't do. and so it isn't until the afternoon that an opportunity arises. they've managed to do what's needed and find a haven by 3pm. noct and prompto are recovering from what prompto has proclaimed to be a "food coma" and ignis is sure he's seen herbs a good walk away.]

I'll be leaving you now, try not to panic for at least an hour. I'll be back before it gets dark; there are herbs nearby that would do better in my supplies than they would growing out in the open. [ and then before either of the pair can think to offer-] Gladio, you can assist.
