Liz had been getting some last minute work done before she started planning for lunch and stopping by the store to visit Prompto when she got his text and smiled when she saw the picture.

I actually haven’t even thought about halloween this year she wrote back but I love that costume. Do you think I could pull off being an avocado?

[hashtag_chocobro]

I can't think of anyone who would make a BETTER avocado than you. 💖💖💖

[flamesburned]

Then I will be happy to be an avocado for halloween 💕💕💕 I will try to be the best avocado I can be!

[hashtag_chocobro]

It was kind of funny, how just a few heart emoji put the biggest smile on Prompto's face, one so broad and persistent it made him wonder if the rest of his face would even survive.

you don't have to be an avocado, tho that is pretty great, isn't it? There's a lot of really ridiculous options for pregnant costumes. You could also be an egg!

Which meant Liz was being treated to another picture.

Followed by, a moment later:

sorry. I totally just remembered that Halloween was a thing!!

[flamesburned]

That is an amazing costume as well! 😍💕 💕❤️ and look at that there were a few more heat emoji’s as well I don’t know which one I like more, which one do you think I should be?

[hashtag_chocobro]

Don't mind Prompto just grinning adoringly at his phone for a few moments before he responded.

hmmmmmmmm 🤔🤔🤔

that might depend. What do u think I should dress up as? Should we match? Or is that too cheesy?

Yeah, because being too cheesy was DEFINITELY something that has held you back before, Prompto......

[flamesburned]

I love the idea of matching costumes! ❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕 Liz told him and then considered what costumes would go with an avocado or an egg what about bread? Do they have bread costumes?

It had been a while since Liz had actually worn a costume for Halloween.

[hashtag_chocobro]

Any delay with this next message came from quickly looking a few things up first.

well there's bacon! And toast!

And there were the pics to prove it.

I also think i could totally rock this shirt and a pair of hipster glasses too

He sent a picture of the shirt in question, but quickly followed it up with a quick:

wait. Are hipster avocado toast memes still a thing???

[flamesburned]

I think you could totally rock the shirt and glasses! 💕💕💕 even though I do like the bacon costume as well

Then there was a pause at the last question and Liz sent another text what's a meme? Liz still hadn't quite figured out what memes were yet, she really needed to update her social media knowledge.

[hashtag_chocobro]

And Prompto blinked at his phone a moment, wondering how he could have failed Liz so much that didn't know what memes were....and then frowned as he tried to think of how to explain memes.

Memes....transcended explanation.

But at least he could address a few things while he figured that out:

i know right? I kind of love that bacon one, but the shirt makes me smile, too. I guess bacon if you go egg, hipster if you go avocado.

U would make the cutest avocado tho, for real.

And memes are like...jokes, I guess? Or like popular references, that just kind of spread through the internet and things like that. Like hipsters and avocado toast

[flamesburned]

Oh, I’m still trying to catch up with a lot of popular culture and she had also missed that particular topic in Jon’s class in the summer. maybe we could look at memes later? You can show me the important ones?

Then I think I’ll go with the avocado costume for halloween ❤️💕💜

[hashtag_chocobro]

❤😍💖💖😍❤😘😘😘

Oh, no, Liz. Now look what you've done, the man had fully embraced his renewed love of emoji, and there was no stopping him now.

omg i still need go catch up on all the new ones! But we can dig up all my old favorites. Good way to spend the evening. Maybe i can pick up take-out on my way home from work? Or maybe some pizzas and ice cream?

As if they didn't already have a freezer stuffed with it as it was.

[flamesburned]

Oooh I love the sound of pizza and ice cream!!! 💕 💕❤️🥰 ♥️ 💕 💕 🥰 and there could only several more heart emoji’s in response to that, because emoji’s was pretty much the only thing Liz understood when it came to the internet that definitely sounds like a great way to spend the evening! I can’t wait!!! 🥰 🥰💕💞

You were going to be seeing him in a couple of hours Liz.
