[ #YIKES, safe to say Shiro doesn't intend to traumatise Prompto or have Ignis boil his balls into a pleasant stew for daring. ]
Kosmo won't hurt them, he's ... intuitive. More with Keith, as I say, but space wolves apparently have a habit of teleporting people to where they think they need to be. He's smart enough not to eat a pet.
Ah, so that's what that was about. Yes, the first time I saw it — Kosmo, as you say — he'd just teleported into my vicinity, I presume to find Keith. Then he beat me to the house where I had you resting, so I presume that was a teleport again.
[It's reassuring to hear, though, that Kosmo is a good wolf like you wanted. He's got no real objection to one, so long as it doesn't try to be the fox in the figurative henhouse.]
You should try riding one sometime. Chocobo racing is actually quite popular, where we're from; though ours aren't explicitly bred for racing, they're fairly capable of holding their own both in sprints and in distance travel.
I've never ridden a giant chicken before. Chocobo, sorry. [ It could be fun! Shiro's love of racing isn't tempered by how fast he can go. ] Can I ask, uh, how did you ... ?
[ Twirling his fingers in the air to (badly) mimic wherever Ignis got the casserole from. ]
...Ah. One of the perks of my duties. It's called the Armiger and it's...I suppose you could call it a shared magic spell. I suppose the best analogy I can offer is that of an administrator on a program that serves some particularized function. The creator of the program maintains the program, but it's possible to add sub-users onto it. The sub-users can access the program and its benefits, but it's not ours, per se.
[As he talks, he reaches into the Armiger again, this time producing one of his spelldaggers.]
Conceptually, it's meant to be a repository for storing weapons. A portable armory, if you will. But in practice, we, ah...all have a bad habit of simply keeping possessions in general in it.
[He shrugs.]
It's because of the Armiger that we have a garden at all, actually. It happened that I was carrying some seed vegetables in it when we arrived, and the magic preserved them, so that we were able to plant and cultivate a new crop of them for everyone to share.
..."Hammerspace". Dare I ask what hammers have to do with it?
[oh, if shiro only knew some of the dumb shit these boys have stored in the armiger. like the fact that ignis has always been the responsible one shoving condoms into it for general access so that NO ONE HAS AN EXCUSE to go without.]
I'm assuming it's a reference to something, correct?
[ As much as his soul was transplanted via Allura and he's witnessed the crazy power of her control over quintessence, and despite his suffering at the hands of Haggar, his eyes still light up with boyish wonder and genuine curiosity at the idea of magic. ]

Where I'm from, we'd call that hammerspace. It's very cool, Ignis, I'm jealous.

[His tone is as dry as a desert.]
Now that, I'm afraid, is a reference I am familiar with. Transformation sequences and absurdly-named attacking patterns, isn't it?
no subject
Can you do all of that?

I do hope you're not hoping for a demonstration of that?
