[ that gets a laugh out of him, and it's a testament to how far he's come on his nerves that he doesn't get all flustered and self-conscious about that the way he might've when he was new to hanging around with Prompto. not that he doesn't still get flustered and self-conscious just fine from time to time, but he's starting to get much more comfortable around him, and the others too. making new friends is something he does naturally, being the open and generally gregarious sort that he is, but most of the people he became friends with in life were matters of circumstance. he never really had to get to know someone the normal way, because fate just threw them together and said have at it.
looks like he's managing, though. ]
Yeah, yeah... if that's the best I can do, it's not like it won't be recognizable or anything. I'll trust your judgment on how to set it up. You're the pro!
Oh, I can do a portrait, we just need to find a nice pretty background.
[Prompto shoots Law a little grin, standing up and heading over to the spot he keeps his camera and the spare film cartridges. Scooping the camera up, he heads back over to Law and keeps smiling.
Friendship isn't something that really comes easily to Prompto. Maybe that's one of the reasons he admires Law so much, because he's so easy to befriend where Prompto himself feels...difficult to make friends with. Sure, he's outgoing and friendly enough, but there's all these barriers inside of him, this worry he's not enough, this feeling like he'll never meet expectations. That he's wrong somehow. Law doesn't seem to have any of that going on, and Prompto's honestly a little envious.]
Oh... yeah, I didn't think about the background...
[ well, that'd be why he came to Prompto, see! he's the expert! and boy, Prompto, if only you knew how wrong you are. but that's just another thing they have in common, isn't it: coming across like they aren't a serious mass of complexes. ha ha, what a fun, happy dude who has no problems! lol!! ]
That's a good idea. Maybe we can find some cool tree or something. Or wait, if there's too much going on behind me, that'll be distracting, right? Ugh, I dunno. I'm overthinking it, never mind. I'll juuuust... follow your lead.
So few people do, at least unless they're taking a photo with a landmark or something! You gotta make sure you stand out against the background but it looks pretty, you know?
[This is something Prompto is good at, and it's obvious he's pretty confident in it by the way he talks, excited and sure of himself. It's a little different from how he usually talks, just a little.]
You're not overthinking at all, you're thinking just the right amount. We just gotta pick something you stand out against. That's all!
[ yeah, he's clueless. his caveman brain never knows what "looks pretty" unless it's, like, Girl With Booba or, apparently, Boy With Very Cute Smile. or like. scenery of nature prohibited by his enslaved realm to ever get to see in their life? hmm. ]
Well, I would've said snow, but we don't have any of that here. What about, like, rocks and stuff? Or wait, rocks aren't pretty. I dunno, they just make sense. My dad and I came from a place with a lot of rocks, so I just thought... that probably tracks.
I think you'd stand out against some vegetation or something, as long as there wasn't a lot of, you know, flowers and stuff. Just greenery.
[Prompto doesn't know a lot about Law's past or history or how he grew up, where he grew up, but he knows enough to know that Law likes the outdoors and greenery.]
Maybe if you come from a place with lots of rocks, then greenery might be nice? Or a bit of both?

Maybe the jungle? I think that'd look good.
