Noctis shrugs. If Nyx wants the veggies, he's welcome to them. And of course he notices that Nyx ignores him, again, but at this point he clearly isn't going to respond. So Noct drops it, for now.
He nods along to this talk of common ground and trust, but he looks up at the end. "...yeah?" he says quietly. "Sounds like I should definitely meet them, then."
"Yeah... They're on Sikalina more often than not. Tall, red, real pretty... sorta feline. Hard to miss so if you go planetside you'll see 'em." Pay no mind to the fact that Nyx has never described anyone as pretty before, always favoring cruder language because of the reactions it gets from people.
