@madeimpact ;; STARTER w/ Ignis !

The Advisor to the Heir Apparent should not be one to moan and groan, even when his head ails him beyond reason, and his chest feels as if it may collapse in on itself. When the call to work beckons him, he answers, even when he appears as if he has one foot in the grave and the other, soon, to join it.

--- and, perhaps he should not be tidying up the prince's quarters in so poorly a state, but it is on the list of urgent and prioritized tasks, for the day, and thus, cannot simply be ignored. Except . . . at some point amidst making Noctis' bed, he had seated himself atop it, for a spell, with the intent to rest for but a moment . . .

Only to eventually drift off, right atop the comforter, shoes and socks and spectacles still on.

This baby has a birthday next week 10/13 and... she absolutely forgot. She is consumed with excitement for Halloween only. Someone should remind her.

[Open (Noctis)]

He was quiet tonight. No video game playing after dinner like usual, no running around either before bed. It was as if all the energy, everything, was sapped out of him. He'd barely eaten dinner either. Thoughts were running rampant through his head about what he'd heard from Ardyn. Had all that truly happened?

Sitting on the couch, Novus gazed at the floor as if he were deep in thought. Why? Why had certain things been hidden from him all this time? Weren't parents supposed to tell their kids everything no matter what? What else was being withheld from the boy information wise? More lies and deceit that he was blissfully unaware of?

It was when the Prince felt a hand lightly pressing on his back that jarred him from his thoughts bringing him back to the present, Noctis's voice urging him to head to bed. "I'm not tired and I'm not going to bed." The boy continued to stay still.

Might as well start the conversation while one of his parents was present to at least get some semblance of answers if any would be provided at all given an adult was speaking with a child. "Why did you lie to me?" was the only asked question out of his mouth so far. Everything he knew seemed to be crashing down around him like some sort of information avalanche. It was extremely overwhelming to say the least.

"Why is everyone lying to me around here about everything? You. Mom. Everybody. About the Astrals. The camping trip. All of it."

● – || Noctis watched Ravus’ frustration grow the longer that they trained . Frankly , he thought what he said was nice and comforting but Ravus seemed to get angry and upset . They had been training all day , so it seemed logical that they would be tired . Noctis was still in recovery , so he got tired easily . He didn’t see why someone like Ravus wouldn’t get tired too . 

When the knife hit the training dummy , the young Prince of Lucis winced , taking a step back from the other . 

“ I know that , but I’m not that good at it . Gladio says so all the time . ” 

Noctis replied , making his way over to the dummy . 

“ Uncle Cor says it just takes practice . So , maybe it just takes practice for you too . ”

They were going to get better at training , Noctis just knew it . For now , they would have to struggle together , but that’s why they had people around them who wanted to help them succeed .

@kiriisu​ asked :

"It's been so long... So much that I have forgotten what a true smile caused by happiness is." His smile so genuine shrouded in streaming tears down his cheeks that had not floated upward for a good few years. Noctis hugged Stella tightly while burying his head in her shoulder. "You are here Stella. You really are... I am also here... Your one and true Noct." The grip of his hands so strong on the woman's body, as if he was never going to let her go again. And a voice trembling with escaping tears of happiness.

unprompted. || always accepting

─「ステラ」─  how long had it been ? even the LOST STAR had lost count of the time she had spent drifting in between different worlds, the journey she made throughout the galaxies guided by only glimmer of light. from one world to another, until she had arrived upon the WORLD built from the destruction of her own. a world that shared the soul of the old one, and her very soul being pulled towards this plane where his counterpart would be.

                and upon meeting him, she had prepared herself to greet him a stranger for he was not the one she had met. the SAME CORE ORIGIN being divided into different counterparts, and he was the very same. despite carrying his face, his voice, his appearance, he was not hers. not her noctis.

                you are here, stella.                 i am also here.                 your one and true noct.

                she felt her BREATH caught in her lungs, and vision began to blur from the unknown warmth rising underneath her eyes. his smile, his relief, that spark within his beautiful gaze, it wasn’t a gaze when one would look at a stranger, no. it was a gaze placed upon someone they had been searching for. the same gaze she had when she looked at him.

                “ prince ... noctis ... ” her amethyst hues welled up in tears, the burning tears she didn’t know she had been holding. they came cascading down her delicate face, and his STRONG ARMS came wrapping around her form. how could this be ? how ... ? there were no explanation she could’ve given. he wasn’t supposed to be hers, but ... he was. the way he called her name, the bashful smile he had mirroring their last meeting before everything was destroyed. this was him.

                this was really him.

                fingers grappled desperately against his back, and her entire form sink into his hold as though she could melt into his EMBRACE. her face was buried into his chest, as his found refuge in her smaller, trembling shoulder. the warm tears she shed was staining his clothes, but everything was of NO IMPORTANCE than the presence before her. and for once, for once, the ever so strong otherworldly traveler crumbled right in his hold. all the weight of another world, the tragedy she had witnessed, the people she had lost, the BURDEN of survivor, they all came crashing down and she cried.

                out of happiness, out of relief, out of miraculous reunion, she cried so hard against the person who held her heart all this time. he’s here.

                “ noct ... ”

                i’ll call you that the next time we meet.

                “ noct .. noct ... ” noctis. my noctis.

@tenebriism || bringing this back from the dead

Ignis can say he's fine all he wants. But despite having asked in the first place, Noctis knows a drunk Ignis when he sees one. No matter what he says, the prince is going to help get whatever or go wherever he needs. His advisor can't be left to fend for himself like this.

Noctis is just about to offer to help him to a seat, when Ignis seemingly accepts that offer before it can even be made. Noct startles ever so slightly when Ignis grasps his hand -- something he's normally way too straight-laced to even consider doing.

It's a little endearing...

No. Noctis shakes the thought out of his head. Ignis is drunk. He shouldn't be having these sorts of thoughts about him. It's just...nice to see him loosen up a bit. Yeah, that's it.

Swallowing the lump he didn't realize appeared in his throat, Noctis lets himself be dragged along to the indicated seat, sort of steering Ignis away from any accidental collisions with other guests. Any close calls would get a nod and a curt, but polite apology from Noctis.

Eventually, they reach some seating along the wall, out of the way of other partygoers. Noct guides Ignis to sit, placing a hand on his back without so much as a second thought.

❝ There you go. Easy does it, ❞ he soothes. ❝ I can, uh -- grab you some food or water if you need it. ❞

kusatta + for nikki

"so you gonna read me a bedtime story tonight or. . .?" tone is playful as he picks the book up off the nightstand, idly flipping through the pages, glancing up over at nikki from over the top of the book.

[ardynzunia]

"A loophole... Let's just- It's just a book. It's fine." If they ignore it, maybe it will go away? That's always been Noctis' strategy, for. Well, anything that was uncomfortable, really.

Arctus snorted, he supposed it didn't matter what Noctis did til closer to time.

"I's fine, I'll figure it out," He said. "Go back to being normal for now."

“Smash or Pass) Esmeralda

@streetwisetemptress

“Smash.” Noctis proclaimed, answering the question instantly without any hesitation before politely looking the other up and down and licking his lips. He then closed his eyes and returned to his thoughts prior to the question.

[mjm5655]

❝ guys, i have a small problem, so there's this kid, n' he won't stop pesterin' me to go fishin' with him, he literally wants to fish everyday, i'm concerned, he seems addicted to it. send help. ❞

he is of course, talking about noctis, that kid's not left him alone since he discovered majima fishing at the sotenbori river.

@lunaetis has chosen my favorite AU for a starter, which is also old as shit. ( for Tifa )

Noctis hadn’t been down under the plate in a while, busy keeping up with Mr. Tuesti’s paperwork and other things, while also maintaining his own health. Midgar was so hard to live in, the constant pollution and Mako production, but living on the Plate was so much better for him than living underneath it, despite making him closer to the planet.

So his trips were less frequent of late, but finally he’d had a chance to wander underneath and follow the planet’s directions to where he was needed most. Today it happened to be closer to the disk wall surrounding the city, as close as he could get to the Wastelands without stepping foot outside the city. He’d not been trained to fight, his only lessons outside what normal children would get were how to blend in and help keep the planet alive.

He did as much as he could while going unnoticed, occasionally having to stop and hide if a patrol or passerby took too much interest in him. Initially Noctis thought that he was doing well, breathing some life back into the soil beneath him. That was until he tried to stand to return to his home, no strength in his legs to support him sending him crashing back down to unyielding earth.

It was embarrassing to be sure, but it meant he could stay and listen to the pleased voice from the planet, small thanks and regrets that the task would fall to her children to help her survive until the Promised Day.

“ It is no trouble, mother. I am just sorry that I could not do more. “ Noctis keeps his voice quiet, best to seem like a crazed man talking to himself than a Cetra speaking to the planet. He would continue with his conversation, quiet as he could, hoping that at the very least, someone would just walk by and not help.

Perhaps today was the day not to wear nice clothing… though he hadn’t exactly planned on sitting in the dirt until he could walk again.

purposeclaimed for any of the twins !

                                “wait. . . you cooked this? all of this?" he'd even go as far as saying this was almost as good as ignis' food, and that was quite the compliment from this picky eater. he grabs another forkful of food before shoveling it into his mouth. "---this is amazing."
