Aye, I see what you’re doing there, this is related to but not in the universe of that other ask, right? Ahahahaha, yay! 。゚(TヮT)゚。
Cor having microwaved dinners and Cup Noodles actually could work for canon, though, and it hadn’t crossed my head before? I mean, he’s so strong and stays so damn… *fans self* *cough* uhm, healthy even at 55, so I assume he must have a very good diet.
But the microwaved dinners and Cup Noodles? I mean, he didn’t bat an eye or mentioned a single thing or showed himself against the idea of noodles during Episode Gladio. He knew they were off for a couple days, knew Gladio was up for physical and spiritual challenges, and he didn’t bring other food…just Cup Noodles.
And it sort of feels like a possible thing! Cor, with no other family, a grown man with no time? Well, microwaved food is okay. He doesn’t die, he has something in the stomach, and it’s quick and simple. Not to mention that…he…he really isn’t the best cook on Eos. So microwaved food that is!
….until the day he adopts sweet little Prommy, of course.
I really love this concept, because this is another scenario that’s up for being hilarious, but is actually super pure and sweet if you look at it from that POV. Cor, that has spent years, maybe most of his life, eating microwaved food because it’s simple and quick and he hates cooking…changing that, for his baby.
Do you know how damn difficult change is? Humans aren’t used to change, it’s horrible. But Cor gives up something that goes beyond a habit and is actually an entire lifestyle, just for his son.
:’)
See, he may be inexpert and not the most playful or best of dads, but who is? He’s giving his best and he’s giving things up just for his son. AJOSPDJSDIPGDFHG, pls marry me Cor ;A; That angel of a dad, that pure thing, you, Cor </3
…and then the rest of Lucis chimes in to MAKE ALL HIS HARD WORK TO KEEP PROMPTO HEALTHY USELESS 。゚(TヮT)゚。
Cor gave up his eating lifestyle, dropped the microwaved food, heck, he maybe even started taking cooking lessons to be a proper cook for when Prommy left baby food, he informed himself about a healthy diet for a kid and even for himself because he has to set the example, and Prompto does eat healthy at home, he has the best damn balanced diet on Eos, the perfect balance between meat, veggies, cereals and etc., he exercises with dad, he would be the goddamn healthiest kid of ALL OF EOS….
…but he’s so adorable ohmygod please have this ice-cream for free and these popcorns and this bag full of candies aND OHMYGOD PROMPTO STOP BEING SO ADORABLE
Cor having put all that effort into giving Prommy a healthy lifestyle and diet, only to end up being crushed down by half Insomnia giving candies and sweets and other junk food to Prompto because he’s just so adorable and charming, hahahahaha 。゚(TヮT)゚。
Imagine this happens since he’s a baby, though, lmao
Baby Prompto in the supermarket cart, giggling and looking at this stranger while Cor’s distracted looking at the shelves to see which beans to buy, not seeing as this stranger, too moved by Prommy’s adorableness, gives him this GIANT lollipop. Cor’s so into his stuff and thoughts that even though he sees the lollipop later he just doesn’t process that he never bought that to his son.
And then again as a toddler, and again as a kid, and ohmygod this child is too adorable, here you have all the candy I have dammit.
And Prommy goes through life smiling at people and getting lollipops, cookies, candies, ice-cream and all and any kind of junk food in return. Worst of the case is that there’s NO ONE that can resist SUCH AN ADORABLE CREATURE, so it’s almost literally EVERYONE giving him candies aopsjdpsdjgsfg
Imagine king Regis, ahahah, he’s admdksfms, Prommy is staying with Noct in the Citadel and Regis goes “Do you give Prompto candies?”
“Not regularly”
“Good. Then today will do no harm.”And it’s not a lie, Cor doesn’t give him candies. But that doesn’t mean Prompto doesn’t eat candies daily BECAUSE HE DOES, because the fact that Cor doesn’t give him candies doesn’t meant that OTHER PEOPLE DON’T, so now Prompto is eating candy EVERYWHERE and daily and nobody except him know about that fact, ahahaha。゚(TヮT)゚。
See, there’s a proper reason Prommy stays chubby despite Papa Cor giving him the best diet! It’s not on Cor, it’s not Cor being irresponsible and feeding him junk food…it’s Cor being irresponsible and letting every person of Insomnia give Prompto a candy 。゚(TヮT)゚。
IT’S NOT ON COR, EITHER, OKAY, IT’S ALL PROMPTO BEING A SMART ASS. He just…LIKES CANDY SO MUCH AND PEOPLE GIVE IT FOR FREE, WHAT WERE YOU EXPECTING HIM TO DO!?
(」°ロ°)」
I mean, if I saw him I so would give him candy if I had, too! He’s TOO ADORABLE and charming, how can someone say no!?
♡ ~(‘▽^人)
So inevitably, Prommy grows chubby despite Cor keeping him on a healthy diet.
Oh, Cor.
You tried.
♡
