The smile on Ignis' face softed a little with those words, as he took the coffee with Shane with a grateful nod. "I was actually hoping you would," he admitted, easily enough, especially since this rather saved him the trouble of attemting to delicately weave the topic into their conversation today, and...well...it was encouraging, wasn't it? That he would want to bring it up to him without even any prompting?

"I could tell," he added, settling back in his chair with the cup tucked in his hands, his head tilted slightly as he looked over at Shane, "when I got back from the store that something was clearly on your mind. I didn't want to impose, though, of course, and figured you might like a little time to work on it before I went and dragged it all out again. Especially when you could be enjoying time with the girls while they were here."
