The threat of inclement weather was back on in full force.
And it was a good testament to the effectiveness of this line of questioning that Ignis' immediate response wasn't some smart-ass comment pointing out that going to go look together would, unfortunately, become a task that would be terribly unbalanced toward her doing all the work.
Instead, it was a low, guttural sound of approval. "My, but you have had an awful lot of time to let your mind wander, haven't you?" he asked, and he wasn't entirely certain what he was finding more of a thrill just then: the vibrant picture Lliana's description was painting for him, or merely the fact that, when left to wander, those thoughts found him.
"No strong preferences," he then added. "Or, rather, I wouldn't want to narrow down the vast field of opportunity in one particular direction or another. Besides...you clearly have plenty of ideas all your own."
Ideas that he hoped the faintly growling timber of his voice made clear a certain anticipation of what those idea might entail.
"Pity," he then added, almost like an afterthought, "Dite's is so inconveniently placed for the both of us, at the current moment."
Although if there was anything to remind Ignis of just how little of a jaunt a trip to the shop would be right now...
"I remember them having an...exceptional selection."
