And if you're loving that "Poor Prompto™" angst baked into the lovely Promptis pairing, please please read this fic I was gifted for the @promptisgiftexchange by @Toastie_Pan. Such a heart wrencher (which is exactly what the prompt asked for- they 100% nailed it 💖)!

Summary:

The world disappears when Noctis does and Prompto finds himself fighting with the daemons out in the fields as well as in the cities. But when he gets everything he'd ever wanted, how quickly will he lose it again

Moon & Sun - A warm winter's night by FallenFoxx

A soft thud as a final, dark figure steps with feline grace, out onto the platform. A face shadowed completely in silken black locks, until the breeze sweeps it aside and the deep blue, sleepy eyes of the Crown Prince of Lucis meet with his. Prompto’s breath catches, unnoticeably, and his veins run almost hot enough to melt the snow at his pristine white boots.

“It’s been so long,” Prompto whispered, “I never gave up hope that you would return to me.” Noctis felt his heart break. He imagined Prompto waiting his whole life, wondering if every phone call was him, jumping every time the doorbell rang. Ever at his side.

Noctis Lucis Caelum & Regis Lucis Caelum

As soon as he put the boxes down, he had to blink. The bed was perfectly expected, but the second bed was certainly not. Nor was the blonde sitting right in front of the placed box. “Um, what are you doing in here?” Noctis blurted out. The blonde frowned and pulled his legs closer to his body. “What? Sitting in my room? Looking over my schedule?” “This can’t be right. I asked for a single this year.” Scoffing, the other young man shook his head. “Dude, do you not check your email during the summer? I’ve known I’ve had a roommate for over a month.”

Prompto will need to process this in stages, he realises. One, that Noctis is alive; two, that he will forever be helplessly in love with him; three, that maybe — maybe — they have a chance together in this world. Something similar seems to be flashing through Noctis's mind, his expression pulling taut and relaxing in quick succession.

Ten years was a long time to go without physical contact. Ten years and some change, actually, but really, who was counting? Prompto was.

Graphic Depictions of Violence

Prince Noctis and his friends have been a little bit preoccupied, lately. Their home has been destroyed, their kingdom has fallen, and they're stuck on this road-trip from hell for the indefinite future. Might as well accidentally adopt a coeurl kitten while they're at it.

Ship: Noctis/Prompto || Words: 600 || Mutual pining

Prompt: Frosted windows

[Read on AO3]

*

The bus is almost empty – by now, they are both adept at picking routes and meeting spots where Noct doesn’t have to worry too much about being seen. It’s safer and easier this way. It also means they can let their guard down and ignore the whole world, sitting close on the narrow seat and leaning their heads together over Prompto’s phone.

“This new one’s funny,” Noct laughs as Prompto’s thumb slides through his most recent cat photos from the shelter he volunteers at. He always makes sure to come back with lots of pictures. He loves taking them – and loves the smile they bring to Noct’s face even more.

The sudden warmth that crawls up his neck at the sight of that smile is all too familiar. Prompto tugs on his scarf to loosen it a little, even though he already knows it’s not going to help.

Maybe he shouldn’t let his guard down this much.

The tinny voice from the overhead speakers announces the next stop. With his thoughts elsewhere, Prompto doesn’t quite catch it.

“Wait, where are we?”

Noct lifts his head – he’s closer to the window – but doesn’t reply, except for a small sigh of surprise.

Prompto follows his gaze, and immediately understands. The window is all frosted over, covered with an intricate mosaic of ice crystals. They spread and spiral every which way, like a painting of a fairytale garden full of fantastical flowers.

And Noct’s profile is cut out sharp in the middle, his regular features and dark hair stark against the milky white pane. He’s still looking at it in quiet wonder with mouth slightly open, breathing out swirling wisps of vapor.

Prompto could lean in and kiss him right now, and behind this icy screen, no one would be the wiser.

“Beautiful.” He clears his throat, hoping it’s not too obvious what he’s really talking about. “I can’t see shit, though.”

“No, don’t break them!” Noct catches his hand as Prompto lifts it to swipe at the glass. His fingers are warm, stupidly warm in this chill.

“Sorry, dude, but I don’t want to miss our stop.” I don’t want to miss this warmth either, so please don’t let go, don’tletgodon’tletgo.

“Fine.” Noct gives his wrist a little squeeze, as if to make sure he’s not going to try and break free. Then, he puts his face up to the glass and lets his breath leave a small hole in the crystal tapestry, right in the very corner. “Here.” He smiles.

Prompto shakes his head and leans over him to look out this peephole. “The next one is ours,” he concludes.

“Good,” Noct replies. His hand rests on Prompto’s shoulder, keeping him draped across his lap. The window radiates a faint chill that does wonders to cool down Prompto’s burning cheeks. The sway of the bus rolls him closer into Noct’s chest in a lazy rhythm, time and again, until the metallic chime from the speaker sounds off at their stop.

As they scramble to the exit, Prompto casts one last glance at the frosted glass. From all the way at the door, he can’t see all the lace-like details, but he still makes out the hole Noct made – and the tiny, tiny heart scratched into the ice next to it, so small he would miss it if he didn’t know it was there.

He feels a little guilty for disturbing the pretty flowers – but as warm fingers close around his wrist again, Prompto has a small, silly hope that Noct wouldn’t mind if he saw it.

“We got ourselves into this together, and we're gonna get out of it together, too.”

"What time did you say the bus was supposed to be here?"

Squinting through scratched and dirty plastic, Prompto looks up at the schedule, then down at his phone. "Five minutes ago?"

Noctis groans, slumping back against the bus shelter.

We have reached the conclusion of the 2024 Promptis Gift Exchange and I want to thank each and every one of you. Whether you were a participant, or simply along for the ride to read the wonderful stories and view the exceptional artwork, thank you for helping to make this gift exchange the joyful event that it was. 

To all of our talented participants, you have gone above and beyond and have contributed so much incredible Promptis content for your gift recipients, and for this exchange. Thank you for all of your hard work and for being a part of this event. You are what made it so special and I’m so happy for you to finally be able to share your work with the community as yourselves.

At this time, all of our wonderful creators are now free to post your stories/artwork under your own name anywhere else that you desire. You may also choose to update the posting date of your Ao3 post at this point so that your contribution appears as a new work under your own name.

If anyone is aware of any stories that were written in response to art from our exchange or more artwork that was created in response to any other stories in the exchange, please let me know by sending me a link or by pinging me at @promptis-gift.bsky.social on Bluesky, @promptis_gift on Twitter, or @promptisgiftexchange on Tumblr so I can give it a boost. Likewise, if any of you have plans to write or draw anything as a response to the gift you received, I would love to be made aware of them once they are completed so I can promote it as well.

I would also like to give a special shout out and thank you to @ffxv_zine_news on Twitter. Your retweeting and support of the Promptis Gift Exchange (especially considering the fact that I wasn’t tagging your account while I was promoting individual works over the course of the last two months) did not go unnoticed. Thank you for your support and promotion of the individual stories and pieces of artwork that our participants worked so hard on, and for all of the wonderful things that you do everyday for our FFXV community as a whole.

Another huge and heartfelt thank you goes out to our wonderful Pinch-hitters: Firechocobro, InNovaFertAnimus, and QueenHomeSlice, as well as yet another enormous thanks to Charmms and SalamanderSocks for their willingness and ability to switch posting dates with participants who ran into unexpected problems. You guys are the best and I appreciate everything you’ve done! 

Once again, thank you to everyone who has been a part of the 2024 Promptis Gift Exchange. This year has been our largest exchange to date and I can't tell you how thrilled I am to have had such an amazingly successful fourth round. It has been a fantastic two months, filled with tons of excitement, and amazing Promptis fanworks! All of that is thanks to all of you! 

I hope to see you all again next year for our fifth round. Please continue to follow us for more information that will come out later this year on the 2025 Promptis Gift Exchange. In the meantime, if you are not already a member of the Promptis Discord Server I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to join us for year round Promptis fun. Anyone who loves Promptis is welcome to join us. It's a great place to chat with nice people about Promptis, share fanworks that you love, and we also have fun in-server events like a Monthly Challenge. I have included the invitation link to the server below.

The last thing he needed was to have someone he saw as his friend try to cross the line and push his unwelcome feelings on him.
