There's no need to thank me -- you earned it, after all!
[Yes, totally misjudged him, look how nice and totally-not-evil he is!!]
[...sure he kept all the profits from selling pieces of the serpent's body as well and made about double what he gave Prompto, but clearly that's the fee for him having to take it all back to Wyver himself!]
But you really should be more careful. For all that you may have thought I was simply teasing you, if I hadn't been there, you would have been serpent food! And it would be a shame to die such an embarrassing death after all the effort that must have gone into saving you from your world.
But no, seriously, he's actually genuinely...touched? That Mephisto remembered to pay him back after that encounter. He's a guy sort of used to being forgotten, honestly, and he wouldn't have expected this out of someone who had given him an actual good first impression.
Huh. Just goes to show you can never get to know someone based off of a first impression! Even if...that first impression involved nearly getting your foot nibbled off by a freakin' sea serpent. ]
Yeah, yeah...you're right. [ He chuckles sheepishly, shuffling his feet. ] Don't worry! I won't let it happen again. Uh. Sir.
[How cute. Humans are so easily swayed -- show them a bit of kindness, and you can change their entire perspective! Not that he thinks he's fully succeeded here or anything, but there's no sense in burning bridges without taking a look to see what's on the other side.]
Ah, it's Faust. Johann Faust. [Said with a bow. The less people who knew the name Mephisto Pheles the better, for now.]

[ And since he's not so polished at the whole bowing thing, instead he just...jabs a thumb into his chest. ]
Name's Prompto, by the way.
