I've seen the post about gladio/train scene and I fully agree, in addition to everything else addressed, it also really hurts thinking that now with Ignis blind, all responsibility falls on gladio's shoulders (keeping them safe and all), he's pressured by his own duty AND ignis' (it's true ignis insisted that he's not staying behind, but back then gladio still didn't want him putting himself and the rest in danger so he knows he has to somehow compensate for an incapacitated member)
Bruh, he doesn’t only have to compensate for an incapacitated member, he also has to keep an eye on him at the same time.
Gladio’s literally in charge of the entire group, at least I dare to believe he feels like, because he has- Prompto, who despite being amazing and progressing each day, literally only learned to fight months prior to the journey.- Noctis, who is his literal priority, the guy he has always had to keep an eye on no matter how well the prince does on his own.- Ignis, who’s been incapacitated and needs to be protected no matter how much he insists he can go on his own
Like shit, Gladio must be feeling he literally needs to look after the three the whole time.
Gladio’s been charged by himself with three times his duty, because he doesn’t want any of them to be harmed even further or to die so long he can help it.
Of course he’s angered! Imagine the great sadness he’s already dealing with, now add all this stress, not to say he’s thinking of Iris left behind, and now having to force himself to be three times the stronger he was raised to be.
BRUH
GLADIO’S SUFFERING TOO AND WE FANDOM DON’T APPRECIATE HIM ENOUGH, WE’RE TOO BUSY ALL “Poor Ignis, omg Poor Noct, omg, he didn’t have to shove Prompto like that omg :’(” and LIKE HELLO
LITERAL SHIELD BREAKING APART?
I love my Gladio, I don’t care who he shoves or who he yells at. He mah precious boy that needs hugs.
