[ From Regis, on the other hand, there is mostly calm and affection. He was a crystal until a month or so ago, himself. He knows there is little to worry... probably. ]
You are very welcome, and I am glad the tidings can be good. Thank you for asking.
Are you... Noctis is someone important to you, is he not?
Friends are wonderful, and there are never too many of those.
And thank you once more. I am sure my son will appreciate it when he awakens. I will tell him to get in touch with you as soon as he awakens.
[ A pause, but because Regis's sense of humor is atrocious, he adds, even though he's sure the answer would be negative, ] of course, you are welcome to visit him at any time, if you are among those who think leaving decorations is the way to express your companionship.
[ Regis promised that Noctis won't end up decorated, and he will keep that promise. But. He can always remove and store any such things, anyway. ]
[ There's a pause as he tries to piece together what it is that Regis means by leaving decorations before he comes to look down to the very thing he picked up for Noctis. ]
It's a scarf. Though not suited to keep one warm... it's more for fashion.
[ And has a pattern of fish on it which is what made the Warrior think of Noctis in the first place. ]
I know that he'd like to thank you himself. And perhaps show off to you how it looks on him. I think in person will be better.
[ Regis is not bringing up the birthday because the timing of the crystallization is a little too close. But he can hope that it'll end before the day comes. Shriveled and faint as his hope is, he can hope. ]

[ And also a comrade from the last conflict though that appears to have been a different Noctis, perhaps. ]
I saw something that made me think of him... I wished to give it to him but I had not been able to contact him and so I thought...
[ That someone else had left. ]

Although I certainly think it will be better if you should give it to him yourself later, rather than leaving it for him.
voice;
[ Perhaps he should have gone for a plain black? ]
Although, if you think that is best, then I shall wait.
