Jean thinks Vern has the right idea. He leans on Prompto and keeps his arms wrapped around him, as if he were comforting a small boy, even if the robot's much bigger than he is.

"I was lame." he mutters, resting his forehead on his. "Books, birds and puzzles, watching over Lotta if my parents were not home..."

He pokes the non-existent freckles on his neck.

"Your card is the Sun, right? That means hope, and warmth and always rising the next morning no matter what. Speaking of...what about leaving this creepy coffin? I doubt that's improving your morale."

Prompto leans his head gently against Jean, carefully as though he's worried he'll somehow hurt the now flesh and blood man at his side. He eventually lets his eyes drift closed partway, focusing on the faint touches of Jean's fingers.

"All I did was take pictures of other people's pets."

He lifts a hand -one of them this time, he seems to be managing them independently now- and touches the inlayed version of his mark in golds and platinum. "She said I need to make people happy."

Those glowing digital eyes blink open again up at Jean, then lower to regard the cardboard coffin he's laying in. "You're probably right."

"I wonder if Margo would complain much if you tried taking her picture..."

Jean misses Prompto's spiky hair. He can't wait to touch it again. With a small sigh, he contents himself with touching the non-existent freckles on his friend's shoulders and neck, until he rises from the coffin and offers his hand to the big robot, an encouraging smile on his face.

"Then next time you meet your Arcanum, you can tell her you're doing an excellent job."
