[It's turned into whatever it takes to defend himself from his crazed best friend who started it with his broccoli fight!]
No no, see Santa thanks me for giving it to you!
[He grins, he's not the least bit sorry. Does he seem sorry? He's not. He tries to tickle Noct too, just for good measure, even if Noct gets a good hold of one of his legs.]
( all right, he can't hold it in any longer. that, or prompto just happened upon one of his more ticklish spots, and it has him finally going limp with laughter. )
( as he moves to get up, he reaches for the plush again, aiming to give prompto one last shot in the face as he rises back to his feet. )
Thanks, you know... you didn't have to do anything. ( but at the same time, he's smiling. there was just no denying that boyish excitement that still took him over sometimes...
as he makes his way to the cupboard and pulls the door open, he looks the contents over, and reaching for some of the candy. ) Hey, now that's more like it!
[He lets Noct's toy hit him in the face and he giggles.]
And here I thought you'd cherish your broccoli doll forever!
[He grins and sits up and shrugs.]
It's a holiday dude, where you give people you like presents and you're my best friend. Of course I got you presents! Buy whatever you want at the fishing store.
[A pause]
Don't tell Iggy where all that candy came from, I don't wanna be in trouble!
That why you kept insisting that you didn't want anything? ( he's giving you a look prompto. a look that says 'you're a big dope' but then, so he was noct since he'd failed to read through the lines on that one. )
Don't worry though your secret's safe with...
( he'd reached back into the far corner of the cupboard, pulling out another wrapped present, small and flat— and definitely... something prompto hadn't left there. "from santa" a tag sprouting from the top reads. of course, noctis has to assume this is his bro's handiwork too. )
Seriously, there's more? You really went above and beyond.
No, that's just 'cause I don't want anything! [He smiles and shrugs helplessly, he doesn't need anything. It's not like he usually gets stuff from people anyway, aside from a few things he's gotten from Noct at times.]
Phew! [He says with a pleased smile and then he tilts his head, looking back at Noctis and the flat present and he shakes his head.]
Nah, that wasn't me. Guess someone else left it for you?
( he's unwrapping as he talks. tearing at the paper and unveiling a book of familiar colour, weathered and worn, as though it had been used for the last ten or more years...
and finally, when it's free— he turns it over. eyes wide, tracing the front cover of the notebook he shared with lunafreya... there's a breathy, shocked— )
( its the real deal. he can tell by the grooves on the cover. flippingt through the pages quickly only confirms what he already knew, as he stops on the page with a pressed sylleblossom... )

[He finishes by swatting Noct lightly.]
Your real gift is in the cupboard.
[But he's got the biggest grin on his face.]
