Anonymous: Could I request some hc for Ignis dating Noctis' sister?
Warnings: mentions of fighting, going blind
A/N: please I’m so glad I got my first FFXV request, and it was for Ignis ;; he’s such a wonderful character and I enjoy writing him. I hope these were okay! Thank you for the request, feedback is always appreciated <3
It doesn't really matter if you're his big or little sister, Noctis is definitely going to be protective over you
(Although he would probably never admit it)
So it was an odd reaction when Noctis nearly passed out when you and Ignis came forth about your relationship
It had been a secret up until then
At first, Noctis tries to play it off as a joke
"Yeah, and I'm eating vegetables now."
Then he sees your serious expression and gives Ignis a glare that is packed full with pure attitude
Noctis probably won't ever get used to his sister dating his best friend, and his advisor
But he bears with it since you seem to like Ignis a lot
Ignis POV
It was enough getting mercilessly teased by Gladiolus for falling for the princess
Now he has to deal with an angry brother as well
*cue long and tired sigh*
After Noctis gives up on his ranting and fussing, Ignis finally returns to showing you with attention, but this time not so secretly
Before, it used to be small and scarce touches
Your hands would brush together barely
You would lock eyes for a split second during battle
You would even ride next to each other on your chocobos
It was the little things that made it count
After you two came out, though, Ignis believed there was no reason for secrecy
You would hold hands now
Ignis found it cute when you'd tug on his sleeve, silently asking to take his hand
Your eyes were constantly on each other during battle, making sure you both were okay in the midst of it
Sleeping in the tent became increasingly harder when Noctis insisted on sleeping between the two of you
But that didn't stop you or Ignis from sneaking out early in the morning and exploring around the haven
Eventually, Noctis gets used to it
You believe that he actually might have agreed with Prompto when he said "they're pretty cute"
Shocking, right?
Noctis felt a little guilty about being uptight about it, since he trusts Ignis with his life
But the two of you told him it was fine and they didn't expect anything else
(which may or may not have offended him shhh)
But the two of you go on to lead a happy life in times of despair
Bonus:
When Ignis goes blind, it was devastating at first
You'd never seen him cry until this moment, which broke your heart
Helping him adjust was difficult, since you had been on Ardyn's radar after Noctis' disappearance
Fortunately, the two of you stayed in Hammerhead when it converted into an outpost
Open areas made it easier for Ignis to adjust when it came to fighting and walking
And finally, as if it were a miracle from the Gods, Ignis began to return to his normal self
You were never good at cooking, but as you helped Ignis relearn, you found yourself doing a pretty decent job
Eventually, Ignis asked you to help him without the cane (which shocked and scared you at the same time)
Each step his took was one in the right direction, and you couldn't be prouder when he could finally move along on his own
Even when times were hard, the two of you were nothing but supportive while you struggled in immensely different ways
Every morning, the first thing Ignis would ask if the sun had risen yet
He missed the rays of the sun, the cold and permanent darkness that surrounded you made it harder to try and stay happy
But that moment when the run rose again, even if you were bloodied and beaten, Ignis sighed a long sigh of relief, your hands interlocked as the monsters faded away from the Capitol’s square.
