[ Noctis offers a casual shrug. ]

I wasn't, until I met Dr. Lutece. She talked about it often when she worked with my dad, and I got curious.

[ Which doesn't really serve much of a purpose career-wise, but he's found it a strange sort of hobby. He chuckles. ]

I'm not good at it or anything. Just understand the concepts.

[daemonized]

Understanding complicated concepts like that is still one step above everyone else.

[He takes a sip of his drink, looking amused.]

Give yourself credit where credit is due.

[kittycaterer]

[ Noctis leans back in his chair, chuckling a bit. ]

Guess so.

[ It's around that time that the food arrives, and Noctis takes a few moments to get his napkin on his lap and his silverware out. He idly talks as his focus is on the food. ]

So what got you into law, exactly?

[daemonized]

[The food is obviously a focus for Noctis, but once again, at this point this does not surprise Ardyn in even the slightest. He answers quickly enough, not quite digging in as quickly as Noctis is.]

Familial obligations, believe it or not.

[kittycaterer]

[ While Ardyn doesn't quite dig in, Noctis is ravenous. So he's of course munching away. He covers his mouth as he perks a brow, mouth slightly full when he speaks. ]

Familial obligations?

Like what?

[daemonized]

My family is very rich and therefore expectations seem to be set rather high for any child of my mother and father. The road to politics is the one I was expected to tread, and the stepping stone would be my entrance into law school.

[He's skipping the details, really, about how suffocating it was to grow up in that particular environment, and how he was treated by his older siblings, but that doesn't matter. It's neither here nor there, and he'll answer the question in the most direct way possible.]

And so my path was set. I chose the route to teach instead, but I'm in law regardless.
