Silly FFXV stuff
Ignoct week arts (yes, I was participating and failed)
With peppy, upbeat characters who are secretly hiding a lot of trauma, it seems like the typical fandom response is to interpret said character’s optimistic attitude as an entirely fake mask, but I don’t think this is quite the right way to interpret Prompto. Yes, he does hide his insecurities and negative feelings most of the time, but that doesn’t make his usual upbeat attitude entirely disingenuous. Even after his secrets are out, his attitude and personality don’t change much. Instead of it being a mask, I think it makes more sense to assume that Prompto has trained himself to be this way. He desperately wants to be someone who is carefree and happy, so that’s how he acts. It’s a fake-it-till-you-make-it situation, and while his using it to hide his insecurities isn’t great, otherwise, it kind of does work out for him—he actually does become someone who is upbeat and positive. Something something “if I smile with my teeth/bet you’d believe me/if I smile with my teeth/I think I’d believe me”
Prompto: I'm NEVER going to take advantage of my friends!!!
Noctis, Ignis, and Gladio, watching in distress as he brings cheese and butter sandwiches to lunch for a month straight, brings all his rechargeables to the library to charge, and works three jobs: PLEASE take advantage of us
More chocobro (and guest) interactions because y’all ate that up
When you process what's going on and the nighttime existential thoughts hit.
Alt version:
im too tired to be coherent rn but random thought: i just KNOW prompto was incredibly intimidated by both Ignis and Gladio when he first met them lmao
like one day noctis offers to give him a ride back home from school or something and prompto is like whatever. then he gets there and ignis greets him very formally and introduces himself as noctis' advisor. and prompto is mildly terrified of him. that boy has anxiety for days, he was DEFINITELY sure he was gonna slip up at some point and that ignis was just gonna stop him from ever seeing noctis again or something.
noctis sees him being weird around ignis and is like 'dude what are you doing its just specs he's literally chill' meanwhile prompto is vibrating in pure terror bc this is like someone IMPORTANT and SMART who'll probably clock him as the commoner he is instantly
ignis makes a few jokes to try and calm him down but prompto is NOTTT getting it and his anxiety just makes the dry humour go over his head so it makes things worse
and it's probably even worse with gladio 😭 like they go to the mall together or something and noctis ends up having to bring a bodyguard so he just drags a (very annoyed) gladio along with him. from prompto’s perspective, there's this six foot something muscled guy who's several years older than him and whose job is SPECIFICALLY to protect noctis. and the first time he meets him, he's in a bad mood. like at that point prompto is just thinking he's gonna die
in reality what happens is that both ignis and gladio see this random kid who's following noctis around and instantly adopt him as their new little brother.

gonna go cry in the corner thanjs
Silly boys😊
Prompto Argentum I miss you 💔💔💔
I had to dig these up from n old part of a album I had too 😭😭
The most important part of the Altissia chapter is when they're being questioned by customs and Ignis looks at their party of:
1) Him 2) A college age punk 3) A man wider and taller than a fridge wearing no shirt and with several enormous scars 4) The actual crown prince of a neighboring country, making no effort to disguise himself
and decides their best cover story is
"✨We are students of the culinary arts.✨"
And it works.
Noctis and Prompto are an absolutely iconic best friend duo because out loud Noctis will be saying something like “meh, whatever” while his inner monologue will be “I love my friends so much it hurts and I wish I knew how to better express my appreciation for them” while Prompto will be saying something like “c’mon, man, lighten up! Have some fun! Live a little! Wanna go ride a chocobo? C’mon, you know you do—“ while his internal monologue will be “I’ll never be good enough. My friends all secretly hate me, and they should. I don’t deserve to be happy”
A funny thought I had was of Noctis going through that one really specific friend experience where you wake up one day and realize your BFF and Parent(s) are suddenly Besties TM and you have no idea when this happened.
So Prompto and Regis somehow becoming just. Such good friends. (After Prompto gets over his anxiety over talking to The Real Life King ofc.)
It started because Noctis was hanging out with Prompto and not answering his phone (he was napping), and evolves (or possibly devolves) into hot gossip sessions, baby photos, and first name privileges, because Regis thought this kid was actually pretty fun, and Prompto realized that Regis was like Noctis, but Bigger and More Sociable.
[Game night]
Prompto's phone: [hard rock music ringtone]
Prompto: Hold on Noct, gotta take this call
Noctis: Ye sure whatever
Prompto: REGIS, your kingliness, my guy, wassup?
Noctis: [drops his controller]
Ignis: [spits out his Ebony]
Gladio: [walks into a wall]
Prompto: Uh huh. Yeap. Oh, he did NOT!!! Uh huh. Ye-ouch, no joke?? Got it. I'll let em know, yeah. Have a killer day my dude! [Hangs up]
Prompto: hey Noct, your Dad wants to actually show up for dinner this week, six o'clock sharp tomorrow. Says your meat privileges are about to expire and if you don't it'll be that time when you were twelve all over again, which, can I just say, YIKES.
Noctis: you-- wha-- HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT. HOW ARE YOU TALKING TO MY DAD. WHY ARE YOU TALKING TO MY DAD.
Prompto: uhhh for months now??? This is old news. Like, there's an entire group chat??
Noctis: A GROUP CHAT?????
(The group chat has Regis, Cor, Clarus, and Prompto, all of whom collectively have So Much more blackmail on the rich boy chocobros than ever before.)
(The rich boy chocobros in question are horrified at this realization.)
