Noctis stood up in his seat, gazing at the many shops and palm trees lining the concrete streets as Ignis steered the car slowly around the the bustling road. Many tourists also wandered the streets here, like Altissia. Musicians and street vendors were heard all over the town, calling out for customers or singing random songs that you haven't heard of before. You pushed your self off the back of your chocobo, feeding it with a handful of seeds. You pet its orange beak softly, hearing the quiets kwehs emanating from its throat.

"Iris, where do you live?" You asked as you walked next to the cruising Regalia. Your chocobo trotted alongside you, making its famous kweh noise whenever a tourist walked past the group, heading in the opposite direction.

"In a house nearby, but don't you guys have to find Luna first?" She replies.

"She most likely already have left this town by now. It wouldn't be wise for Luna to stay in place for a long period of time if she escaped from the Imperials. They'd be searching for her in all directions." Ignis answers, patiently waiting for pedestrians to finish walking across the road. Iris hums in response, looking at nearby signs and stores.

"So f-n, when was the last time you had a change in clothes?" Iris asked you, gazing at you with an all knowing look.

You sigh, "I'm not going shopping for clothes Iris."

"Come on, just this once! I've never gone shopping with a girl before, only with Gladdy." She begged, giving her best puppy dog eyes.

"Hah, fine." You admit to her question. She giggles in her seat, crawling over Prompto.

"Sorry!" She apologized over her shoulder. Iris grabs onto your hand, yanking you towards the nearest clothing shop.

"Iris! How are you going to pay for the clothes?" Gladiolus yelled out.

"With your credit card!" She replied loudly, waving his credit card side to side in her hand tauntingly. Gladio quickly checked his pocket's, opening his wallet to reveal his now missing credit card. When did she have time to steal his card, only the gods would know.

"Iris!" Gladio screamed angrily, causing you and Iris to sprint off towards the nearest store.

"So, shall we get shopping?" She said calmly with a smile. You shrug your shoulders in response, following her through the endless racks of clothing.

Time Skip
Prompto chuckled at the sight as he opened the door with a quick twist of the knob. Iris stood gleefully with a bright smile holding one or two bags in each of her hands. Meanwhile, you stood scowling at the back of her head, clearly annoyed with the large amount of paper bags in your possession.

You even were holding a bag by its handle with barred teeth. The younger hazelnut haired girl waltzed into the room while you slid the soles of your shoes against the wooden panel floor from exhaustion. The bespectacled adviser glanced up from the morning newspaper gazette he was earlier scanning over to the pile of multiple colored paper bags plopped onto the floor near your feet.

"Did you enjoy your shopping?" Ignis asked with a small smile.

"Definitely! It was so fun trying on different dresses and t-shirts! I'm going to go change into one!" She gushes excitedly, rushing out of the room with a few bags in her hand.

"And you f-n?" Ignis questioned, placing the newspaper on a nearby coffee table.

"I feel exhausted. My body has never been so tired, and it was from shopping!" You complain, falling face first into a couch.

"Do your teeth hurt too f-n-chan?" Prompto asked with a laugh, planting himself on the ground next to the couch.

"I felt like a butler or servant, holding onto all those heavy bags." Your voice came out muffled.
