"Sure, anytime." Noctis smiles in return, casual but warm. At Dion's perturbance over the mess, Noctis shakes his head. "Nah, don't worry about it. It's just water. And uh...yeah, magic's probably a no-go for now. I've got towels, but first you're gonna have to remove all that armor and...how many layers is all that, anyway?" So much fabric, geez. But hey, Dion looks good in it.
"You get started on that while I drive us back to the city. If you're cold, I can turn the heat on." Noctis, unfortunately, has no idea what's necessary to put on and take off armor that complicated. Or that it's a two-person job.
The visibility when he starts on down the road is still terrible, but at least the headlights are fully upgraded, bright enough to ward off daemons - and bright enough to cut through the gloom a bit, too.
They've only been driving about half a mile before the Regalia makes a worrying clunk sort of sound that Noctis has never heard it make before, and as he slows down to pull over, the engine stalls and they roll to an ignoble stop.
"What??" Noctis tries the ignition a few times, but it just chugs and whines and won't start. "Oh, come on."
