"Talk" Walk

He hadn't anticipated on bringing a child along for this particular task. But when he noticed one of Sparrow's kids sneaking along behind them for who knew how long, Ignis had stopped and berated the boy for doing something so reckless. The kid should've made his presence known sooner so that maybe he would've had time to run him back home before the others got too far, but as it was, he decided it was best and less time consuming to just take Jack with him. He didn't think the boy would be able to keep up, and of course, he was right. They were going a pretty far distance, and eventually, Jack got too tired from walking and while Ignis had half a mind to leave him, deep down he knew he couldn't do that. Not only was he Sparrow's kid (someone he respected), but after one of his own kids had gone missing recently, he wasn't just about to abandon Jack alone in the wild. So instead, he scooped him up onto his back and continued on his way.

As the group approached Valhallan lands, he came to an abrupt stop which had caused Jack to fall off. The crimson male rolled his shoulders and glanced down at the boy who had bounced back to his feet, turning his attention to Pyralis as she jumped onto the wall. On the other side, he could hear bleating. Sheep maybe?

Shortly after Pyralis exclaimed they oughta see what was on the other side, Jack wanted to see too. The boy eagerly placed himself in front of him, exposing his scruff and asking him to...throw him? Ignis was hesitant at first, a glance spared to Modesty when she said she'd do it if he didn't. "Ah what the hell," might as well, right? "I hope you stick the landing, kid." Reaching down, he picked Jack up by the scruff and tossed him towards the wall. The boy flew through the air, and he hoped to whatever God's were out there that Jack would stick the landing or that Pyralis would catch him.
