My name is Prompto. You might have seen me around the prince at some point, yeah? Anyway, don't take this extremely cute face as a ruse - I can be quite the killer when I need to be. Although I don't like to do that, so please don't ask me to.

He was trying here. He really was. Gladio wasn’t good at romance. He loved it. Loved love. It was silly but it was true. Everything he liked about romance was so grand. It was powerful. But him actually doing it? That was hard. Gladio wasn’t expecting a chuckle. So when he heard Prompto, at first he was hurt. Why would he be laughing at him? That was mean. Cruel. But… it wasn’t cruel. And he might have a point. Gladio didn’t even realize it. “Uh. ..  well. Um… yeah. Okay so it might be. But, are we— can we… is it okay if I refer to you as my boyfriend to other people? Is that okay?”

As much relief as the blonde had felt before, Prompto couldn’t help but feel his eyes bulge just a little bit once more. Again he looked around, though this time it was more in wonder. “I... yeah? Wait, why?” Why would Gladio want to do that in the first place? Why would he want people to know that he was dating a commoner? Let alone someone not from the city, someone poor, someone so far below his station it wasn’t even funny.

Now the blonde was starting to doubt himself just like before. Was this a date? Weren’t they just friends? It made no sense for Gladio to want this, but... he knew the guy. Knew he wouldn’t ask or say anything unless he was serious about it. “If you want to... sure?”

The color seemed to drain from her face at his offer. As sweet as it was, she knew any kind of comfort and attention would probably just make her crumble. She shook her head, her eyes checking to make sure no one had awakened since she last checked. “No, I’m fine.” she assured him with another forced smile. While she no longer had tears running down her face, she felt the dried wetness of her cheeks. 

“I don’t want Gladio to worry. He’s got enough to worry about with Noctis.” she pleaded. She looked back down at her knees for a moment, taking in a breath as she rubbed her cheeks once more. “I just haven’t slept well since Insomnia and everything has been a bit..overwhelming,” she continued. 

The way that Iris turned down his offer had the blonde frowning just a little, his eyes following her gaze as it drifted to the other boys. Alright, so it was probably just like it was with him, she didn’t want people to see her upset or call attention to it. That Prompto could do, he was a pro at it, after all. He glanced over at Ignis, seeing him fiddle with the clasp on his glove before looking back at the road. Clueless to the discussion between the two youngest of the group, which the blonde was thankful for.

“What if I could tell you I could get us out of this cramped car and into a nice hotel without them even suspecting a thing?” The blonde wiggled his eyebrows just a little, trying whatever - anything he could do, honestly - to bring a slight chuckle to Iris’ face... or at least help calm the girl any amount at all. He knew what it was like, and while others may not remember when being around Noctis? He knew what she had lost as well. He couldn’t imagine how hard it had to be for her.

Ignis shivered just the slightest bit at the stab of emotion Prompto’s words gave him. Grief and gratitude, and a need so deep he didn’t know how to express it. He felt the sting behind his eyes like tears threatening to fall. Slowly, he lowered a hands to cover Prompto’s, his thumb passing gently over the back of his fingers.

“Just…” he swallowed hard, voice quiet. “Just stay with me, please.”

It was the soft touch of those gloved fingers on the back of his hand and his knuckles that let him know Ignis was still there. Things may be hard, and he knew they would be for a while, but this was still his guy. His friend. His Ignis.  Prompto flipped his hand over to curl their fingers together, giving the slightest of squeezes just because he could. Because it was something the adviser would be aware of, unlike the smile that was passing over his lips.

“Always, Iggy. I’ll always stay with you.”

He should have waited. It was done to just put this all on him. Gladio knew that. He knew that and yet here he was. Being a jackass. In public. Nice. The Shield took a deep breath, trying to calm down the thunderous beating against his chest. It took everything in him to say what he needed to say. What needed to be said.  “I want.” He swallowed. “I want to be something. With you. Ya know like—-” Don’t chicken out now, Amicitia. Just do it! “Like date. You know. Boyfriend stuff.”

The minute that Gladio started to speak, Prompto sucked in a breath, and he doubted he let it out again until every word had left the older man’s mouth. He could feel his heart pounding in his chest, and his head which felt weird, but he supposed with out quiet it felt - even being in a diner with other people - that was to be expected. It was the last two words that had him finally releasing the breath.

The chuckle that followed it though wasn’t one that the blonde was expecting. It was a relief and a surprise all at once. “Isn’t that what we’ve been doin’? I mean... wouldn’t this be considered a date?”

Kisses his temple tenderly. He has been missed!

“Hey there, short stuff.” Prompto laughed, arms curling around her to pull her into a hug.

🔗 - Handcuff, tie up, pin down

“Why do you insist on doing this to me?” The blonde mumbled the words out, hands reaching up to cover his face as he forced out the rest of his words. “I would tie up Ignis because he needs to lose control sometimes, I would tie up you because you’re annoying sometimes and also so you can’t fight me, and I’d pin Cor down because… he… would fight it and it would be hot.”

Ignis sighed again, leaning against Prompto when the blond leaned toward him. Did he sleep well? Well… sleep was a delirious dream when you didn’t have sight. Sometimes he thought he was awake, and he wasn’t, and the other way around.

“Perhaps, but not yet. If we don’t linger here for long, I can manage.” But now that he was awake, the sounds of the diner were sharp and painful.

“I’ll make sure that we don’t stay long.” The blonde continued to keep his voice quiet, his hand slipping down under the table to rest on top of Ignis’ knee. He just wanted the man to know that he was there, that he’d take care of him. That was something he wanted the older man to know - that he was always there for him.  “Is there anything I can get you for now, though? Anything you need?”

“You heard me. What are we?” He had meant to wait until they weren’t in a public setting to have this conversation. But like always, Gladio couldn’t wait. It was nagging at him, peeling at his usual self confidence. He needed to know. He had to know. “I’m cool with us hooking up. I’m good with us just being friends. Hell, I’m totally for us dating, but let’s put a damn label on this already. It’s killing me.”

[brandedmachine]

“Why do I have to choose?” The slight panic in Prompto’s voice wasn’t something he could easily mask. Hell, he’d be surprised if his face wasn’t bright red and his leg was shaking. If he had had some notice, maybe. If Gladio had texted him the question? Sure, because he’d be able to think and put together a response without feeling like every eye in the room was on him. Now though? Swallowing, he looked around, his hands slowly putting the burger back down onto his plate. “What do you want, then?”

🥊 - pinch, slap, punch

     “Is this how you kill me? Because I feel like any of those would get me killed.” Prompto grumbled, before answering, his face going red because he knew one of his answers just wasn’t something he should say out loud. “I would punch Cid, because I have a feeling he doesn’t like me anyway. I’d slap King Regis because I know he can take it and I could play it off as something Noctis told me to do. And I’d pinch Cor, because… have you seen that ass?"
