[prompto laughs abruptly at that, nearly dropping the board in the process. she asks it all earnestly, he can't help but find it funny...!]

[but her intents are serious and he waves his hand about.]

No, I get it! This place is really loud! Eventually you get used to it and it becomes background noise. You won't even register it.

I guess you also gotta learn to be alone despite being surrounded by people. Like, a park's never not gonna be without people. But if you listen to music or focus on your own stuff, you can pretend you're by yourself. That or find a really empty space to hang out at.

[he smiles, signs of his laughter gone]

I like being around people, even if they're strangers, but I get the feeling you're a bit of the opposite of that, huh?
