[It's a bad habit of his, to brush everything off with an "it's okay" or "I'm fine". Honerva asked him once if that was how he felt, or how he told himself he should feel. He refrains from doing so this time, instead closing his eyes and burying himself in Iggy's comfort.
They lost Gladio, but Noct is okay. He's still here, and he's safe now. And Ignis is here. Right here, where Prompto can see him and hear him and touch him.
So it's not entirely okay, but it's better. It's good.]
[ Prompto isn't alone, Ignis is bad at asking for help or admitting when he's not okay. He's getting better at both of those things.
Ignis gets it, he understands Prompto's feelings and this is hardly the first time Prom's found Noctis in rough shape; finding both Ignis and Noctis on the altar. It's never easy hearing that one of them is in trouble like that.
Ignis tilts his head a bit and rests comfortably on top of Prompto's head, one of his hands rubbing at Prom's back in a soothing gesture now. He doesn't say a thing, just offering up his silent comfort until the other is ready to talk again and he's calmed down enough. ]
[ Ignis lets out a soft happy sigh at the kiss, though he pauses at the question. He was fine talking to Noctis, mostly since it came from him this time around. It's never easy though to hear such things. ]
I'm [ fine, almost tumbles out, but he pauses at that too. ]
... not sure what to think. This place is supposed to be safe and yet he's almost died twice here. I'm thankful he's alive.
[Prompto hums.] I wouldn't say this world is safe. Safer than home, for sure. Safer than the Fleet had been. But definitely un-safe things have happened here.
