I was wondering what the general biome your city is in is like. What’s the climate like in Neotropolis? Is it hot or cold? Does it rain a lot or anything? Also what country do you have it placed in? Any noteworthy natural landmarks nearby like rivers or something?
Bless you for asking this because I’ve been wanting to talk about the landscape of neotropolis -rubs my little hands together-
In terms of the general culture and scenery of Netropolis; think kind of like Big Hero 6 or Cyberpunk 2077 or blade runner; a sort of melding of western and asian cultures and people. Neotropolis takes place surrounded by the land of Arcadia there are multiple.. districts i guess is the right word? The story starts in Circuit Central; the most lavish and advanced area; think like sillicon valley- in fact, on the actual map of america (yes this does take place in a slightly altered america) it’s just. In California. Neotropolis 20XX is anti-california propaganda.
Besides this there’s also MIDI, the more run down and disenfranchised area of Neotropolis; not much beaides abandoned factories and landfills down there.
On the opposite side of Neotropolis there’s a city called Amiga but we don’t talk about that shhh. Only thing to mention is the mountain that overlooks it, Mount Ariga (teehee)

I hate the narrative in fanon that prompto is insecure in his friendship with the bros, specifically the concept of having a friendship.
when that's not the case at all.
prompto knows they're friends, he says it himself both in his dlc and the main game.
so the idea that prompto doesn't believe he could have a relationship with gladio or, as the most common, ignis is bizarre.
prompto is well aware of how they (gladio and ignis) act towards people they don't have a particular interest in, even more so to those that they don't like.
this is something that also goes hand in hand with fanon's portrayal of ignis and gladio, but that's for another time.
prompto does not strive towards friendship but rather to keep it, or more accurately to foster.

❥ DATING ARMIN ARLERT
friends to lovers! because i feel like he needs to deeply understand someone before he dates them so he only started liking you a few years into the friendship (though he did always think you were cute)
also a guy who actually means it when he says he prefers personality over looks
i can see him as both the one confessing and the one being confessed to, i think it mostly depends on which of you is the braver one
expect museum/gallery dates, walks on the beach, picnics, stargazing, road trips, bike rides, library/bookshop visits and napping together
his primary love language is words of affirmation, with physical touch as a close second, for both giving and receiving
soft kisses! short if it’s just a quick goodbye kiss, but usually slow. if neither of you are in a rush, he loves to take his time and savour the feeling of your lips on his
his favourite places to kiss you are your forehead, face, hands (palms/knuckles) and shoulders while his favourite places are his nape (anywhere on his neck/collarbone area, really), behind his ears and his face and forehead as well
long tender hugs, usually accompanied by a peck to your hair or temple, or his head nuzzling into your neck. even sweeter when he’s missed you, squeezing you tight, lifting you slightly and breathing in the smell of you. then when he puts you back down, he likes to just stay like that for a while
easiest way to make him blush is to give him compliments or affection
oh and when he blushes, he blushes HARD. i’m talking whole face, all the way to his ears and sometimes even down his neck
big pet name guy! usually calls you love, dear, darling and sweetness, but i also personally headcanon him as polish-german so he’d throw in the occasional słońce (sun/sunshine) and kochanie (love/honey) as well. if he’s feeling romantic, he’ll call you perełko (little pearl) or mein schatz (my treasure)
his favourite pet names to be used on him are baby, love, honey and darling. he also kind of enjoys it when you jokingly call him pookie
into cute old-fashioned chivalry! walking on the outer side of the pavement, opening doors, pulling out a chair for you etc.
not a huge fan of PDA but will always hold your hand when you’re out together
staring. he doesn’t always mean to, he just naturally has this need to be constantly absorbing as much information about you as he can at all times. also he’s so sure you don’t notice but he literally looks like this 🔵-🔵 in your peripheral so? (don’t tell him that though, he’ll die of embarrassment)
on top of the staring, he actually remembers all that information. probably knows you better than you know yourself
also has all your food/drink preferences and orders memorised
physically clingy but also clingy in the sense that he’s just always around. following you everywhere you go like a puppy, never far behind whenever you enter a new room, constantly asking people “where did (name) go?” or “hey, have you seen (name) around?”
this boy has mastered the puppy eyes. he rarely uses them, but when he does, you will never win. sorry. he will be getting that kiss, those cuddles or that bit of attention when you should be focusing on something else
the type of person to send you tiktoks, memes, things related to your interests etc. and be like ‘this reminded me of you!’ or ‘this is so us!’
i think he’d be good at drawing because of the technical aspect, so he definitely has a whole sketchbook dedicated to just portraits of you
shared custody of his clothes. will hand you his coat if you’re cold, no questions asked, and doesn’t mind if you want to borrow one of his jackets to go with your outfit
helps you study if you struggle with it
has a guilty pleasure for teasing you and being a sarcastic little smartass. he loves it when you can’t think of a witty response, and how when you do, it turns into a fun little back-and-forth that he basically always wins
protective of you! holds your hand when you cross the street or walk in busy places, will help you stand up to someone if you need it, walks you to your door, texts telling you to/asking if you got home safe
will put a blanket over you when you fall asleep somewhere without one
doesn’t really get jealous, but when he does, he gets very clingy and insecure so make sure to give him lots of attention and reassurance!
anniversaries mean a lot to him! monthly small gifts during your first year together, then proper celebrations every year after. plans meticulously for at least a week, coming up with cute things to do that cater to your specific likes and interests
says ‘i love you’ frequently. coming from a household where it was the norm means he will take any and every opportunity to remind you that he loves you
always down to run errands with you! he loves to be of help but also loves spending time with you, even if it’s while food shopping or picking up the laundry

something about kinger being in the circus "the longest" and him still openly caring about the other members and striving to be kind to them makes me emotional actually.
like yes the scene where he comforts ragatha but also the "pomni, take this" scenes. putting a bucket on ragatha's head after jax's licorice-hair comment -- said in front of a monster that eats candy people. winning rock-paper-scissors and being so excited to get to help zooble. remarking "oh, thank GOD you're okay," when zooble gets ejected from the gloink queen. he can be a great source of comfort in his moments of lucidity, but even when he's not quite there, he really does try his best to protect his friends -- even if his efforts come across as goofy or nonsensical.
I find it especially interesting that these moments are really the only times he actively involves himself in the adventures. yes he makes a few comments here and there, but when he isn't trying to help someone, he tends to just let things happen around him. he's largely absent in most of episode one (mostly because he seems to be freaking out about his own safety -- and granted, we don't know whether or not he was just having an especially bad day, but I think it's worth noting) and he doesn't get involved with the adventure at all until he's told to find zooble. he's also shown to be very observant of the people around him, like how he accurately predicted that kaufmo had completely lost it, when no one else picked up on the signs.
more than anything, though, I think kinger's conversation with ragatha shows some of his philosophy when it comes to the other players. "it's a lot for anybody to go through; don't take it too personally," is likely a learned sentiment -- and consciously or not, I think he doesn't have any bad blood with the other members (see: kinger being the only one (from what we've seen so far) that jax doesn't actively torment) because he understands why they act the way they do and doesn't hold it against them. everyone copes differently, and like I said before, he's very observant, especially when it comes to the emotions of others.
and idk. I just think it's nice the longest standing member of the circus didn't survive this long by learning not to care.
