He catches the way he picks at his food as they sit around the campfire, adjusting his spectacles as he speaks. "Noct, as much as you despise them- will you please try and eat your greens? I wouldn't prepare them if they weren't of some nutritional value." Motherly, almost, but he can't help but get on to him from time to time.
Noct eats his veggies ( JUST THIS ONCE )
He’d been waiting for this, his fork stopping dead in the middle of his plate once Ignis’s words reach his ears. With a sigh the fork glides closer, stabbing into what appear to be green mush, It’s probably spinach, but its all just green mush to him. The way Ignis went on about nutritional value all the time made it seem like the moment he stuck this crap in his mouth and swallowed it, he’d suddenly grow muscles like Gladio out of nowhere. In actuality, nothing would happen, nothing would chance & his taste buds would just be in total protest till he got the taste out of his mouth.
Slowly the fork is lifted, closer to his mouth and he could now smell the offending vegetable as it got closer. All while bringing the utensil to his mouth, he stares point blank at Ignis with a neutral expression. You wanted this. The mush reaches his mouth and the fork scrapes along his teeth, leaving the food there to soak into his taste buds. Without even chewing he swallows, wanting to rid himself of the taste as soon as possible. Never breaking his gaze with Ignis, once the food is down his throat he can’t help but grin a little, turning his head away from his adviser, not wanting him to have the satisfaction of seeing him.
“—You happy now? That’s going to get me through a month without you pestering me again, right?”
