Hey there! For a Halloween request can you write headcanons for Noctis and Prompto where they are trapped in an old haunted house with their S/O, bringing out their protective sides?
Yay, a FFXV request! I miss these boys, so thanks for requesting!
NOCTIS & PROMPTO’S S/O IN A HAUNTED HOUSE
Noctis would act all cool and nonchalant about it
As you’re going in, you’re already holding on to his arm
And he would chuckle and say it wouldn’t be that scary
The further you walk into it, the less confident he seems
With every sound and every shadow, you jump and scream
Noctis tenses up and yelps, but tries to hide it
He always tries to pretend like it’s not big deal
He focuses in comforting you and calming you down
In a way, it helps ease his own anxiety about it
Because he makes it his mission to make you feel better
Still, he makes a big effort to appear unfazed by it all
Mostly making excuses about every little thing
And trying to rationalize every sound you hear
If there’s a strange thud, he gulps and shakes his head
“Something must have fallen somewhere, it’s okay”
“That was the wind, don’t worry, we’re alone here”
Or if you ask him if he’s scared or anything like that, he brushes it off
“Of course not! You’re just holding me so tight that I tense up”
Which is clearly a lie, as you confirm when you apologize
You try to step away from him, but he doesn’t let you
Because he feels safer for the both of you if you’re touching
Especially if you’re holding on to him, because it’s comforting
And he can make sure you’re close to him at all times too
So he insists that it’s okay that you’re clinging on to him
Prompto would absolutely be a nervous wreck
He’s jumpy, tense and almost paranoid with everything
But since you’re there with him, things change a little
Sure, he still jumps up every time there’s a sound
And he still screams and holds on to you tightly
But he tries to calm himself down and make sure you’re okay too
“Aaaah! I’m fine, it’s okay, it’s okay. Are you alright, Y/N?”
Still, he can’t help but to be so startled by every little noise
“Oh, no! What was that? What was it?!”
Despite his own fear, he does his best to make you feel safe
He puts an arm around you, which also makes him feel better
And is constantly saying reassuring things to you
“It’ll be fine, we’re almost through, don’t worry”
He might walk in front of you while tightly holding your hand
Just to protect you from any danger there might be
His priority is keeping you safe, so he focuses on that

Noctis likes listening to music as it gets his blood pumping.
He would subtly bob his head to the beat but if he’s feeling really into it, expect him to sway a bit to the song, an unconscious biting of his lips ensues, much to the bros’ endless teasing.
When it comes to dancing however, don’t ask the prince to dance if you’re not on his posse.
Stranger? No thanks.
But if the bros start dancing, initiated by Prompto, followed by a very good dancer named Gladio, expect Noctis to dance a bit.
The prince doesn’t have a particular dance style, expect him to sway his body from side to side and raising his hands in the air if he feels like it.
Dancing with the bros does not require the best dance moves nor coordination. It’s only pure craziness.
When someone he likes is suddenly thrust into the dance scene beside him, at first Noct goes from having fun to being shy.
But when his crush starts laughing as they dance to the beat, being their usual self, Noct would gain confidence and start dancing with them.
Bold is rarely the word for the prince when it comes to things like this, but if he’s feeling extra brave, he’d hold his crush’s waist as he dances with them, a playful smile decorating his lips.
A younger Noct wouldn’t dare do the, um, grind, but mind you, with enough signals from his crush, he’d be down with it. Nothing dirty, just losing himself in the feeling of holding his dear one close and inhaling the sweet scent of them.
By the end of the night, Noct is hooked.
Don’t try to put V in the dance scene, however, if you do not want to make a mess of the Prince.
Prompto - The Energy Bunny
Prompto, despite looking like a shy and clumsy chocobo, is actually a killer on the dance floor.
Not a killer, of course. But he’s gonna slay anyone who challenges him to a dance off.
Sunshine Kid’s energy and dance moves are the best around. He likes dancing to keep his blood pumping, plus it gives him an extra boost of happiness.
Prompto loves watching those choreography videos on Nextube and he’d try to imitate the steps with success.
He’s not all about the dance moves however, because Prompto’s charisma is infectious.
He’d be all smiles as he dances, but he’d get very much into it too that he’d look like a total badass of the dance floor.
But he’s not doing this to look cool, though. Sunshine Kid just loves to dance. His fave goofy moves? Why, the Kenny Crow dance of course! Followed by the cowboy bounce and the running man. He ain’t Sunshine Kid without being a goofball, of course.
If he’s only listening to the music, a.k.a. watching his friends dance as he gobbles down on spicy food and chugging down a cold drink, he’d bob his as he’d tap his fingers on the floor.
Expect his feet to tap to the beat too. It’s like his body can’t contain itself that he has to dance it all out.
He’s the one who initiates the dancing. He won’t be too confident to try and dance on the dance floor at first. He’d dance by the corner or by the table all by his lonesome…for a few seconds. He’d then drag Noct or whoever it is that is fortunate or unfortunate enough to be in near proximity.
If he spotted his crush in the crowd, Sunshine Kid is nowhere to be seen.
The bros would eventually find him stress eating by their table or pretending to be busy taking photos to avoid talking to that person.
And let’s not forget the selfies. By the end of the night, expect lots of selfies with the bros and all the people he’s made friends with. And lots of stolen shots. That’s Prompto for ya.
Gladiolus - A Vision on the Dance Floor
Gladio likes any kind of music. So if someone plays some really good beats, expect him to really try and rock to it.
He’s confident in his dancing. He doesn’t have any dance moves in his pockets like Prompto, but boy, can this man dance.
The way Gladiolus carries himself as he busts a groove makes it look as if he’s doing some sort of photo shoot.
He is not shy to dance either in a reserved fashion like swaying his body from side to side, or from going full on with his dancing.
This guy’s energy is hard to match, only at par with Sunshine Kid himself.
Gladio is open to dancing with a stranger, given that they’re nice and all. If they’re jerks, expect him to walk away with an irritated scowl.
He’s the kind of guy who would boldly ask someone to dance with him or with his friends if they’re alone or too shy.
He won’t be overpowering; in fact, he’d be very friendly with them. He’d strike up a really good conversation as they dance with ease.
The bros are not surprised if the big guy ends up making friends, or having a number written on his arm or his hand.
If Gladio sees his crush in the dance floor, he’ll call out to them.
He’s very happy to find them as he’s having fun and is willing to do his best to make them feel the same way.
He doesn’t dance to impress, but if that is what will take for his crush to really notice how, ripped, uh, good-looking he is, then by all means, he would.
Gladio is the kind who would talk about different things to anyone while dancing. From nonsensical things and jokes to deep philosophical things like do you think the stars stare back at us and all that.
Ignis - The Suave One
Ignis prefers to listen to music, thank you very much.
He’d be that friend who seem to have their butts glued to the seat and would make up every excuse not to dance.
‘I’m too drunk’ (he’s drinking Ebony; in fact, none of the bros drink liquor anyway in precaution to avoiding any mischief), or ‘I sprained my foot, ah, ankle’, ‘My glasses are too foggy’, ‘Cor is in the crowd’ (gasp) and such.
The bros would leave him to his lonesome.
Ignis is very happy to be left alone. He fishes out his phone and begins playing King’s Knight. The bros are missing out on the level up bonus on a Friday night. Iggy smirks.
He’d find his foot tapping to the beat and he’s cool with that. Ignis Scientia likes listening to whatever makes him feel better, no matter the genre.
The only time you can find Ignis on the dance floor is if he is avoiding someone.
There was one time when a lady bumped into his seat and asked if he wanted to dance. She was very beautiful, yes, but he found that from a corner of the bar that a man as big and fearsome as Gladio was glaring at him as if he was throwing daggers at Iggy in the dark. Ignis excused himself with regret but peace goes first before romance. A sad affair, really.
Gladio is the first to sense if something was amiss and would call out to Iggy to join the bros in the dance floor.
Prompto’s incessant dance moves proven to make Ignis Scientia laugh and Noct’s annoying teases would push the Master Tactician to bust a few moves of his own.
Ignis can dance. His spatula can attest to that.
If anyone can catch Iggy dancing, consider yourself blessed.
Ignis looks so damn sexy as he dances. He’d push his glasses up and dances effortlessly it’s almost criminal. AND THAT SMIRK.
Once Ignis’ apple of his eye is suddenly in the room, Ignis would halt any tomfoolery and act the mature one in the group (he already is, but, multiply that twice).
He’ll see if this person would look at him as his friends would dance about. If they did, he would look away as if he himself wasn’t staring at them in the first place.
It works, of course. Ignis finds himself talking to this person but keeping everything about him mysterious.
He’s not touchy, though, so don’t expect him to grab you out of nowhere and start swaying those hips. He’s a gentleman.
At the end of the night, Ignis Scientia has gotten almost everyone smitten with him.
Noct gives him the stink eye from the back of the car. Remind him not to bring Specs to the dance club again.
V - The Closeted Dancer
The lady above is Veritas Lux Seculum in her typical battle gear. I finally made her own GIF! I made a character model for her in FFXV Comrades and I’m so happy to have made her first GIF! Of course it had to be the goofy one, ha!
She’s almost always sitting by the table with Iggy, discussing matters and even jokes. Iggy approves.
But then Prompto would drag her away to the dance floor and would make her laugh with his cowboy and running man dance moves.
Gladio joins in the moment he sees this and would try and joke about, raising V’s hands in the air to ease her nervousness.
Veritas is too cautious and reserved most of the time, so a little dance wouldn’t hurt.
Once she sees that everyone is having fun, she’d let loose a little bit.
Immortals aren’t boring on the dance floor. They’re adorable!
This barely 5′ short tall lady starts by swaying her body to the beat and similar to Noct, she would raise her hands in the air, just losing herself to the groove.
But if the mood finally strikes, she would drop all facades and dance to her heart’s content.
She’s not afraid to go disco or latin or hiphop or anything. Sunshine Kid challenges her to imitate his moves and she complies but throws in a bit of her take to it.
V is the kind of person who would laugh as she dances and likes to engage in conversation like Gladio.
Her usual dance partner is Prompto and she’s always down to being a goofball with him.
Their fun energy is infectious that even Noct starts dancing with them.
If V looks at the Prince however, he’d look away.
V loves dancing with her friends, but if Ravus suddenly calls her, expect her to excuse herself and head outside the club to talk.
The only way to get her back is to say that Gladio has had too much to drink (of course not). They only want their best mate to stay for the fun.
Here’s the playlist I’ve been listening to as I wrote this down, if anyone is curious. I don’t really stick to a particular style, as long as it keeps the blood pumping, it’s a go. *please don’t judge me, haha!’

at least 5 things your muse enjoys doing aside from canon !
repost, don’t reblog - pls !
LEARNING SIMPLE YET IMPORTANT LIFE SKILLS: Despite Noct’s difficulty motivating himself and finding time to do things between school, royal duties, friends, training, etc... He likes to learn small, important tasks as much as possible. He tries his hand at cooking, though he knows he’s terrible at it. He is able to recognize how important it is and has grown to dislike Ignis having to do everything for him. He knows it’s his job, but really Noctis likes the idea of being a normal, self-sufficient adult. Therefore, he reads books and looks online to learn how to do things like sew, fold clothes, basic first aid, etc... It gives him a healthy sense of accomplishment and independence, even when he struggles to do it right the first (second or third) time when trying his hand at it himself.
PIANO: As royalty, being proficient in a number of different tasks and arts was a given in the Caelum household. Noctis was constantly put under pressure to become cultured and well-rounded. Ever since he was a child he found the prospect exhausting. However, there was one thing he never minded the structured weekly lessons in. Piano. Piano was something that put him at ease. He seemed to have a knack for it, which made practicing more enjoyable. It was something he found himself doing for recreation. It was the one lesson he felt the least amount of dread preparing for, particularly when the King allowed for Ignis to be the one to teach him. Though it’s rare to hear the prince play, it’s something from his childhood that he’s always held dear. And the occasional duet is something that always brought the prince closer to his adviser when no exchange of words were necessary.
DRAWING: Particularly manga/comic book style art. Noctis always had a love for comic books. It was one thing that he and Prompto were able to bond the most with during the beginning of their friendship. However, during Noct’s teenage years he also took to drawing the styles he loved the most in all his favorite comics. He tried his hand at a few comics himself, but never had a knack for story-telling. He’s always been too embarrassed to reveal his love for drawing. However, that hasn’t stopped Ignis from finding his work during cleaning sessions in Noct’s room or at his apartment. Though the heated reaction Noctis had after Ignis’ mentioned his talent left the rest a mystery to Eos. Ignis kept Noct’s hobby a secret, and Noctis would stick to doing his stealthy doodles in his spare time when he was sure no one else was around.
BUBBLE BATHS: Luxury is something that is not unfamiliar to the prince, however, this in and of itself doesn’t explain Noct’s solid affinity for baths. When he was little and still healing from his injuries, baths were a very common practice for the young boy. For so long, it hurt terribly to do anything except lie in bed. However, baths were one of the few times he was able to do something other than that. He remembers the soft bubbles, heavenly warm water, and fragrant oils always soothing his frustrating aches and pains. Once he was recovered, he was able to enjoy them more without the embarrassment of having someone there to help him and check in on him constantly. From then on, it became a place of rest and solitude. He could close his eyes and nap in peace, surrounded by warmth and silence to soothe is fresh wounds and sore muscles.
WATCHING NATURE DOCUMENTARIES: Noctis has always had a love for animals, despite pets being an odd affair at the palace. Sure, there were cats to keep vermin away and plenty of birds to watch, but Noctis never really had an official pet of his own, though that didn’t stop him from “claiming” and naming the cats around the citadel. Animals always fascinated him, and of course fish are included in the equation. Aside from riveting nature documentaries about the wilds of Duscae and Liede, he especially took to ocean documentaries and those describing the different aquatic life of Eos. He finds them relaxing and interesting, and always gets excited learning about new fish he has yet to encounter, or even ones he’s already had the pleasure of reeling in.

This is one of the two ends for the End of Eos series. Each ending has a different viewpoint and either can be your cannon! Please enjoy the conclusion of the series.
Lux Finem
You held your rapier in hand, your body covered with a white dress, you always figured that the only white dress you would wear would be the wedding dress that Lunafreya provided you for your upcoming nuptials. Still, it made you nervous, the plan was thrown together in under a few days, even with those on the inside, Ravus, and Araena, as well as Ignis, even Lunafreya and Clara all working together it still had a chance of failing.
Ardyn was a rather wild card and with your altercation on the beach, you already knew that you only saw a fraction of his power. It also left that Noctis had yet to make a convent with all the gods, you were only going on this with a wing and a prayer.
Plus Lunafreya was offering to make the first convent on Noctis behalf with a goddess who hated humans, not as much as Ilfrit did but Leviathan was pretty high up there and was rumored to have a horrible temper. Yet your sister would not go it alone, you were there to make certain that all of you would come out alive.
“The Empire will attack, they will see the opening.” Ignis stated, “It was already determined that they would kill Lunafreya given the chance.”
“Even more of a reason to have me out there,” Ravus replied.
“No, we need you with Ignis.” Lunafreya offered to her elder brother. “Besides Y/N is going with me.”
You smiled to the woman beside you taking her hand, “Araena, stated that they’d be coming from the sky, there’s no way that they’ll be able to tell the difference between two women dressed in white running around from that distance. We divide and confuse them, take them out that way.”
“What of the convent?” Clara inquired.
“Either of us can do it.” You explained. “Preferably Luna, this way I can provide coverage for her, and Amor will cover from a vista point elsewhere as a sniper, and everyone else stays within the crowd.”
You would much prefer for the crowd to not be there, but it would be hard to request a mass evacuation without a panic, plus the local government was already upset that they maybe come a battlefield by hosting both the Oracle and the missing Prince. The only thing that could be offered was to keep the crowd as far away as possible, by stating that it was uncertain how large Leviathan was, which wasn’t a complete lie as you had personally still yet to see a god in person.
Still for everything to go this horrible in such a short amount of time. The empire attacked Leviathan, causing the goddess to go on a rampage! Lunafreya kept attempting to reason with the Goddess, almost resulting in the both of you being drowned multiple times from the goddess, while Noctis had summoned Titan to try an subdue her. Only for you to be greeted by a red blur and the familiar pull of a warp. Shrieking as you were tossed to the ground.
“Oracle Lunafreya, we finally meet.” Ardyn chuckled, as you stumbled to your feet. “Your little friend Y/N did a good job of hiding you from me in Altissa.”
You moved to stand, letting out a groan, did he really have to throw you? You figured that with the two of you wearing making dresses and covering your faces with veils the empire would not be able to tell the difference. How silly men are, you and Lunafreya didn’t have the same body type and you stood slightly taller than your sister.
“Sorry, Luna’s not here. Maybe you'd like to speak to me instead.” You called, tapping into the remnants of the King’s magic within your body. Transforming you into that armor they provided you in your first fight with the man, the pull not so bad this time.
“It seems we meet again.” Ardyn chuckled, as you stood the power of the King’s still running through you, as you wheezed softly, from almost being drowned by Leviathan’s tantrum and summoning the power, luckily this time you weren’t drawing it from the ring so it wasn’t taxing you as much. “You’ve really pulled the wool over my eyes the last we met.”
You stood up, finally catching your breath, your rapier held tightly in your hand. “Sorry, it's like you said we’ve both have very different plans.”
“Do you wish to fight again?”
You looked to your rapier in hand, before tossing it before you to land between the two of you, the blade stuck in the rubble. “No.”
Ardyn raised an eyebrow to this, “Beg pardon.”
“I’m not going to fight you, the gods remade me to fight you.” You stated. “I’m not doing that, I’m sick of following their orders.”
Ardyn chuckled loudly at this, “Is that so?”
You stared the elder man down, “Please answer me this Ardyn, do you want to rest right?”
The man gave you a stare.
“I can help you, we want to help you. Lunafreya, Noctis, myself. You're not alone anymore.”
“What do you know about being alone?” He hissed.
You shook your head, “Nothing, I know nothing of the years that you spent alone, cursed by the same gift that the gods gave you to protect what you needed. I asked for that power too.”
The man erupted with an Ameriger around him of red, his eyes turning an inky black, as he removed his hat, placing it on a decommissioned MT unit beside him. He stepped forward a sneer on his face when you didn’t back down, but instead squared your shoulder to the man taller to you.
“You can barely protect yourself, from the deamons before you now.”
You blinked up to the man, reaching out a hand “Because Somnus spoke so highly of you, he told me time and time again how he was so angered because he could not help you. The one that needed him most.” You rose your hand to cup the man’s cheek, only to flinch as he quickly grabbed your wrist, the Ameriger spinning around you faster, every so often you’d feel something slash against your skin, nothing to cause damage but to have you back down which you refused to do.
You didn’t flinch as he growled angrily, his face inches from your own, or as the circle of the Ameriger grew smaller. You didn’t bat an eye as you watched a face more demonic than anything from your nightmares or that you’ve seen in the darkness moved closer. What drew you from the man was the shrill shriek of Leviathan as Titan slammed her into a building.
Ardyn turned as well as you both heard the crash, only to feel you grabbed a hold of his jacket, shoving him away from yourself before tossing yourself out of the way of falling building pieces.
You stood, hair and attire blowing around the multiple storms brought up by the gods fighting. You squinted seeing Lunafreya rushing around the battlefield to something black. Noctis! You moved to go after the two, only to halt as Ardyn appeared before you.
“I don’t believe we were done talking.” Ardyn chuckled, the black still coming from his face. Despite speaking so calmly in a raging typhoon, you still heard him.
Still you screamed above the howling wind and rushing waters hoping he could hear you, “I wish that we were stronger and didn’t have to rely on the gods to protect what we love! I wish that everything was better, that you didn’t have to suffer alone! You lost everything, you witness everyone you love die, but look, you bought that same fate on Noctis! Your own flesh and blood! You’re allowing Noctis to suffer the exact same fate you had suffered! Would you wish that on him! Would you wish that on your own brother!”
You shrieked, feeling the man backhand you throwing you to the ground.
“What do you know, child?” He hissed
You grunted pulling yourself up, “I wish the gods were good and understood our lives! I wish that we could have met before all of this, before this war, before they used you! Before they abandoned you and marked you as Accursed.” Your eyes turned as you gasped seeing Lunafreya attempting to protect Noctis from the still rampaging goddess, she wouldn’t be able to get a barrier up fast enough, you knew she was weakened by not only summoning Leviathan but also trying to survive the goddess’s multiple drowning attempts. “We can blame this on fortune some kind of twist in a star! You’re angry, you have every right to be, hell I would be too, but what you’re doing right now is not right. You know that!”
“You speak as if you know a lot, Princess.” He growled a dagger appearing in his hand.
You smiled pushing yourself to your feet, “I know that every person I have met with the name Lucis Calem is someone that I love dearly. I wish you could understand that.”
Ardyn watched with dark eyes as you stumbled to your feet, moving over to your rapier. Turning your eyes to the man. “You wish for a lot of things Princess.”
You bend down picking up your rapier as you turned to the man offering your free hand, “I wished you come with me.”
You weren’t certain of how long you offered your hand to the man, only to gasp as the ground beneath your feet shook. You turned to Noctis and Lunafreya, sparing a glance back to Ardyn and without a second though tossed your rapier towards Noctis and Lunafreya, warping after it, just in time to push Lunafreya to the ground, and cover the both of them with your body as a pillar shot overhead, along with another wave from Leviathan.
“Sorry, I’m late. I lost connection.” You smiled crawling off the two of them, taking Lunafreya’s hand.
“Glad you could make it.” Lunafreya laughed, as you both surrounded Noctis, pulling up a barrier.
The two of you watched repeatedly as water crash against the barrier time and time again, noticing that your barrier was getting smaller, as the two of you curled closer together over Noctis’s unconscious body. You turned hearing Lunafreya wheeze, not now! You refused to lose either of them, you turned to the woman, linking her hand with Noctis, touching the man’s chest.
You screamed above the howling wind, “Brace yourself!”
“For wha...”
The blonde woman was unable to finish as you summon one of Noctis’s swords, before tossing it out the barrier to a safe distance forcing a warp from your Prince, happy that it worked. You stumbled from the barrier going back into the fray if Leviathan kept rampaging, she’d destroy the city and everyone in it. You pressed against your ear to the talkie.
“Anyone there?”
“Yes.” Ignis called back.
“I warped Noctis and Luna to the west pier, get to them, Leviathan is gonna take this place down if she’s not stopped.”
A scratch and you heard Amor, “What about you?”
“I’ll be fine.”
Your signal dropped, you must have been too far out of range or the carriers that were still bombing the gods were scrambling your connection. You had to get them to stop enraging Leviathan, you gasped as a large wave splashed over you causing you to lose your footing if you hadn’t stabbed your rapier into the ground. Coughs wrecked your body as the water rescinded.
“Levi...Leviathan!” You screamed. “Stop! Please!”
You wheezed harder trying to get a hold of the goddess.
“You won’t be able to do anything about her, you’ll need to stop the carrier.”
You turned, only to smile at the redhead man approaching you.
“I recall you knowing how to warp, get to Leviathan. I’ll handle the carrier.”
You smiled with a nod as the both of you tossed your weapons following after them, you landing on the top of a building not yet destroyed by the gods battle. “Titan! Leviathan! Please! Stop! It’s done!” You heard a crash, before seeing a red light bouncing between four of the five carriers in the sky. “Leviathan! Please!”
With bombs and weapons no longer falling around the battlefield Titan managed to subdue the angered goddess long enough for you to ask again in a days time to assist Noctis. The goddess begrudgingly agreed before diving back into the depths, you spared a smile to Titan as his summons was undone, turning as you heard something land on the roof. You giggled as you saw Ardyn standing there, his weapon disappearing within his armeriger as he approached you.
“Have you gotten everything you wished for, Princess?”
You reached out your hand a smile on your face, “I wish you’d com...”
You heard the pop and your body jolt and the magic of your transformed attire disappear as you stood in the decoy white dress, a large red spot appearing on the front, you looked to Ardyn before you before your legs gave out underneath you, your world dark before you hit the ground.
*
“Where is she?” Clara growled, pacing as best she could, she had injured her leg, shoving Ignis and Ravus out the way. She, Ignis and Ravus found Noctis and Lunafreya not long after your message went out, but even after Leviathan and Titan disappeared you had yet to return.
“She has to still be around her, don’t give up hope,” Ignis replied, as everyone turned from one of the temples that hadn’t been destroyed. Luck would have it Leviathan only managed to destroy the summoning area and a few buildings around her, most of the city was left unharmed.
Noctis and Lunafreya managed to come to around the time that Prompto brought Amor back, the woman had suffered a broken arm from her harness snagging and having to cut herself out to avoid being hit by debris from Leviathan, and a fallen carrier.
Gladiolus and Lucet appeared having gone out searching for you, returning when they found nothing to the north. The entire group was worse for the wear, but at least everyone was breathing. The group agreeing on trying again in the east when they stopped seeing a figure coming down the walkway, only for weapons to be summoned immediately as the figured became Ardyn.
“What is it you want…” Ravus stopped as everyone noticed that the man was covered in blood, but what was worse was that your body was in his arms.
You held no tension, a large blossom of red against the stark white dress you wore. Your head lulled away from the group, arms hanging uselessly. Appearing a limp doll within the Accused's arms.
“What did you do to her!” Clara barked, only stopped by Ignis grabbing a hold of her arm.
Ardyn stepped forward, none flinching at the weapons aimed at him, his eyes locked with Noctis and Lunafreya. He moved forward again, now knowing that none of them would strike with your body in his arms. He moved before Noctis, you still held within his arms.
“She’s a stubborn one, absolutely refused to give up on me,” Ardyn replied rather low his eyes hidden behind the shadow and brim of his hat. “It’s been quite some time since I healed.”
“She’s still…” Lunafreya gasped, rushing over to you unafraid of the man holding you. She took your head within her hand. It was very faint but you were breathing if barely. “Please put her down.”
Ardyn placed you down on a large slab, stepping back as he allowed Noctis forward by your side.
“What happened?” Ravus hissed, still untrusting of the man beside him, Prompto and Amor’s guns trained on the redhead man, along with his own sword.
Ardyn did not turn his eyes from you,“They shot her while her back was turned.”
Lunafreya begun to shake, her healing wasn’t doing enough, you weren’t getting better if anything it was worse. Not even with the combination of Ignis and Clara giving you CPR.
“Here.” Amor called, reaching into her hair plucking a feather. “It’s a Phoenix Down, it’s old but it should still work.”
Everyone watched as the glow surrounded you, but you still didn’t stir, they all had to watch as you gave one final exhale. Lunafreya placed her face within her hands, as she began to sob. Gladiolus took Lucet close as the woman sobbed heavily, the man holding her tightly as he turned her away from your body, his own tears falling silently. Ignis gathered a wailing Clara close, allowing her to cry in his shoulder. Prompto followed Amor to the ground allowing the woman to cling tightly to him as they both cried. Ardyn adjusted his hat to further shield his eyes. Ravus stepped forward placing a hand to Lunafreya’s shoulder as the woman turned hugging her brother tightly.
“She can’t be gone, after everything we did.” Lunafreya cried, as Ravus stroked her back. “She promised we’d come back together.”
Noctis stepped forward kneeling beside your body, taking your hand within his own, as he leaned forward pressing his lips to your own. “I love you so much.”
As sobs echoed the pillars ghostly blues begun to surround them, slowly taking the forms of the Kings of Lucii. Come to mourn the fallen princess of Lucis. The Father and The Mystic stepped forward, Somnus stopping near his brother, while Regis moved beside his weeping son, his armor disappearing as he rested his hand on his sons that clung tightly to his bride.
“I promised to protect her.”
You inhaled deeply, letting out a gasping breath as you began to cough wildly, before panting hard. Tired eyes opening as you looked to your love above you, “Noct?”
Noctis quickly gathered you in his arms, hugging you tightly. “I thought I lost you.”
You smiled before noticing the others surrounding you, after being filled in and a little extra healing from Lunafreya, you stumbled from your perch, moving to stand before the two brothers this all started with. Your hand held out to the man, labeled the Immortal Accursed. “You asked me if I got all I wished for, I’d wish you’d come with us.”
Ardyn adjusted his hat, with a chuckle, “You wish for a lot of things, Young Queen.”
You smiled brightly, as he removed his hat, taking your hand and knelt, pressing his forehead to your knuckles.
“Should you wish to have this Immortal Accursed by your side I shall have to grant that wish, now won’t I.”

The sea sounded absolutely beautiful outside your bridal suite room, only for you to hiss as Clara pulled a little too hard on your hair.
“Sorry, sorry,” Clara called. “You just have so many knots.”
“I’m still picking concrete out mine,” Lucet muttered, nuzzling into Pyrna who hadn’t left the woman’s arms since the woman found the dog, Lunafreya stated it would stop the dog from getting into trouble.
“Did you know that Chocobos can’t be at the wedding site, Clara? Prompto tried ordering one for you, Y/n.” Amor replied, helping slip your shoes on.
“How strange,” Clara muttered.
“We never did return that Chocobo.” Lunafreya stated.
You froze, “Crap.”
This only caused the two of you to start to giggle.
The last forty-eight hours were a strange blur, Lunafreya summoned Leviathan to form the convent with Noctis. Who still needed to get the rest of the arms, and with Ardyn assisting in finding the arms it actually went rather smoothly, and the boys returned home last night. There was still the manner of getting the crystal and returning it home, but Ardyn had stated that would be simple enough, and that Noctis shouldn’t keep you waiting any longer.
You both were finally getting the happy ending you wanted.
“Princess, we’ve got trouble,” Aranea called stepping from the balcony, having not wanted to put on a dress, but at least allowed Iris to put a bow on her armor, and a matching one for her dragoon lance.
“What’s wrong?” You asked only able to turn your eyes to the woman as Clara was still working on your hair.
“Did Prompto find Chocobos?” Clara called slight panic in her voice.
Aranea stared in confusion at the question before shaking her head, “These aren’t Chocobos, but I think you’d prefer if they were.” The woman replied, waving everyone out to the balcony.
As all of you crowded on the balcony, you watched as an official Neilhielm armor squad arrived on the scene. Your eyes turned to the others, watching as weapons were drawn, before noticing that Noctis and the boys had stepped outside.
“Hate to put a damper on your wedding day.” Iedolas growled, flanked by quite a few MT units. “We can not overlook…”
You jumped from the balcony, your attire transforming to your Lucian armor as you stood beside your husband to be who was still in his casual clothes, lucky. You may have also ignored Clara yelling at you for being reckless.
“The bride to be, we heard you were indisposed,” The old man hissed with a pause, “happy to see that was false information.”
You sneered to the man, all you wanted was a beautiful wedding day and this old asshole man was ruining it! You did not cross all of Eos, nearly get drowned by a god, get shot and brought back to life to have these men stop you from marrying Noctis!
“Leave now!” You barked, causing the men beside you to jump in fear, having never heard you so angry. “You are not welcomed here, creature.”
“You have no rule here.” The old man hissed stepping forward only for Noctis to move before you, having yet to draw a sword. “Prince Noctis, it seems that your…”
You stopped listening to the man, your eyes scanning the area around before you called loudly. “Gladio!”
“I see him!” The tall man brought up his shield just in time to block a sniper bullet, the same time Ignis, Prompto and Ravus drew their weapons as the MT units before you rose their weapons to attack as well.
“Amor!” You called, only to smile as you saw a man fall from a nearby building, followed by three more snipers you hadn’t seen, from surrounding rooftops.
“Attacking on neutral ground, a further act of treason.” Ravus hissed.
“High Commander, or as I should say former High Commander you’ve helped the enemy. You are of no concern here.”
Ravus moved before you, standing beside Noctis,“The only enemy here is you.”
You turned harsh eyes back to the man before you, “I watched you order the death of King Regis, under a false treaty, what do you know of honor?”
“Silence girl!”
“The only thing that you are upset about is that King Regis seen through your foolish plan.” You went to draw your rapier, only to feel a hand on your shoulder. “Now you feel that you can speak,”
“A bride should have nothing to worry about on her wedding day aside from her own joy. Allow me, my dear.” Ardyn called, stepping before you, Noctis and Ravus. “Shall we have a word, Emperor?”
“Are you sure?” Noctis inquired.
Ardyn chuckled adjusting his hat, “All you need to worry about dear Noct is your beautiful bride having a beautiful wedding. I’ll be certain to return by the time she walks down the aisle.”
You all watched as the man left with a very frighten Emperor having no choice but to follow him, only to wonder what exactly it was that Ardyn would do to the man.
*
As you sat alone in your bridal suite you smiled softly reflecting on your entire journey, of meeting Noctis and falling in love. Finding a sister in Lunafreya. Assisting a man labeled cursed, tears sprang to your eyes as you looked at your reflection of you within your wedding dress.
To the mass gathering to view the wedding it was just that a lot of expensive fabric, that was woven together with no gather meaning but to be a subject of headlines.
To you it was more, a trophy of all you had been able to live through. To new starts and the end of a so much hatred and evil. To love that made you excited for each sunrise that would appear each day going forward.
“Are you excited?”
You turned, looking to the little friend the often followed you around the Citadel and Noctis apartment, reaching forward as you scratched at the little white chin, “Of course I am Carbuncle.” You giggled to the little fox beside your bouquet of flowers. “It’s my wedding day.”
“I’m invited?”
You gasped kneeling to look him in the eye before scooping him up, “Of course you are! After all you know both the Bride and the Groom. I wouldn’t dream of not having you there.” You smiled as he nuzzled you with a cheep before jumping from your arms.
As you picked up your bouquet of Syelleblossom, you turned only to smile brightly as you saw the black armor of Regis awaiting you. As you rushed forward, the armor dissolved showing the man how you viewed him in life, perhaps a bit younger, your arms going around his shoulders as you hugged him tightly.
“Dad.” You cooed, feeling the cold touch of his body, but that had become comforting at this point.
“You look so beautiful.” Regis smiled, as he released you, pressing that familiar kiss to your forehead before adjusting your veil to hide your face from all that wasn’t your soon to be husband. “I do not wish to keep your husband waiting.”
You felt tears start to fall from your eyes as he offered you his arm.
“They say when a bride cries on her wedding day its means the wedding is blessed by the gods themselves,” Regis replied, as he led you to the outdoor rebuilt area.
You tried to stop yourself from running down the alley where Noctis was waiting for you. You glanced around, taking in everything around you. It was a straight walkway, appearing to be floating on the water itself, to were Noctis and Lunafreya waited before you tall columns rising out of the water. Glancing to the high balconies and terrace to your friends, giggling at the red-headed man that did indeed make it to see you down the alley.
Only to gasp at the 12 figures that also appeared beside the one labeled Accursed to view your wedding, you felt so overwhelmed so much love from those around you. You unwrapped a hand from your bouquet reaching out to Noctis, only to find that even unspoken he knew what to do. As he rushed towards you taking the hand that reached for him.
You both had come this far separately, it would be wonderful to start this journey down the aisle as two separate beings and to leave it as husband and wife with one life blended together. After all, the two of you had been written in the stars as belonging to each other.
“You both make me so proud.”
Noctis gasped since linked with you, he saw the figure that helped you this far. “Dad.”
“Walk tall my Son and Daughter.” Regis smiled, releasing your arm as he went to join the other kings awaiting for your union.
A perfect day, as the King was wedded by one of his dearest friends, to a woman that made the night sky appear so dull compared to her. Book, stories, and tales would be passed down for years to come but no one would ever forget the look of joy on the two lovers face as the Oracle pronounced them husband and wife for the first time.
~
You gave a soft sigh of joy as you held onto the railing on the top of the Regalia Sea, the new royal vestal, as you saw the view of Altissa appear on the horizon.
“There you are.”
You smiled as you knelt down in your traveling dress hugging tightly the little girl that held the same features as her father as well as her elder brother that looked like your husband when he was younger. Those Lucian eyes and beautiful hair always held true, but people often stated that those eyes held the gentleness of the night sky like their Mother.
Getting a kiss from them, as you scooped up your toddler daughter, before turning to your husband, receiving a kiss from him as well as your eldest pressed against your side clinging to your skirts, his free hand holding onto his Father’s hand.
“You always get so excited when you see Altissa.” Noctis chuckled.
“Of course, a lot of wonderful things happened for us on Altissa.” You replied, placing your hand to your son’s back as he pointed out a huge fish that was almost appeared to be escorting you to the shores
“Auntie Lulu.” Your daughter, Regina cooed.
“Mom is Uncle Ardyn there too?” Your eldest, a son, Oriens inquired, as he moved to hold your hand that rested on his back.
“Yep, he’s been working with Auntie Luna and Uncle Ravus in getting Tarabene back together.” You smiled brightly, as your son stared at your bracelet, he was always fascinated by the gold band of yours.
“Oriens, why don’t you take Regina and help Ignis radio in.” Noctis offered
“Come on Reggy, Mom and Dad are gonna be gross.” Oriens called reaching up taking his younger sister in his arms, before heading back below deck where Ignis and the others were.
“You didn’t have to do that.” You sniffled, as your husband pulled you close, brushing the tears from your cheeks.
“Maybe I wanted me time.” Noctis chuckled, following your gaze to the ever growing closer city, still of peaceful land but a meeting place of two royal families.
As you docked, exiting the boat to find Ardyn awaiting you all on shore.
“I was starting to worry.” Ardyn chuckled tipping that familiar hat.
“Uncle Ardyn.” Oriens cheered, as he and Regina raced up to him, wrapping arms full of fabric and their uncle’s legs in an embrace.
Ardyn chuckled as he scooped up them embraced them both tightly, “You couldn’t have missed an old man like me that much.”
“You’re not that old Uncle Ardyn.” Orien laughed, as Regina snagged the hat, placing it on her head with a coo.
Ardyn chuckled as you and Noctis stepped forward, “Safe travels, I presume.”
“Your nephews wished to stop and fish every five minutes.” You smiled.
“Allow the King his pleasure, my Dear Queen.” Ardyn chuckled as he motioned toward a caravan, “Unfortunately Lunafreya and Ravus were unable to escape the meeting, yet should be finished by the time we get there. They also sent us this caravan due to Lucet’s condition, despite ensuring she would jog the entire way if we allowed.” He stated greeting the others with a nod, “I don’t believe you two will have anything to worry about, you’ll have an army of Shields to protect you.” He laughed, placing Oriens and Regina within the car.
Aside from your own two, Gladiolus and Lucet already had a set of triplets boys and were currently expecting twins girl in a few months time. While Prompto and Amor had adopted a young one of their own. Ignis and Clara had opted out of children, insisting that Oriens and Regina, the young Argentum and the Amicitia garden were more than enough, besides they had already raised the both of you.
As the group of you all arrived at the hall, you couldn’t contain your smile as you saw the form of the Oracle, looking so much like the picture of her mother that she had shown you, flanked by her brother. Even from this distance, you could see the huge smile on her face as the car came into view.
The car was barely parked before you were rushing up the stairs and she coming down as you both embraced tightly, only to break apart to giggle excitedly to one another.
“You would think they haven’t seen each other in years.” Clara giggled, assisting Regina up the stairs.
“My Dear, you have to give it to them, it has been 26 days this time.” Ignis chuckled, following Noctis and Oriens.
“I think it’s adorable.” Amor smiled, watching Clara straighten out Regina’s travel dress, to meet her Auntie Luna and Uncle Ravus.
“Yeah, I still don’t understand why Cor decides to stay home all the time with the kids.” Prompto laughed, “He’s always talking about how he’s too old to deal with royal meetings.”
“There you are.” Lunafreya giggled kneeling to press kisses to Oriens and Regina cheeks and getting big hugs, only to have Regina reach for Ravus immediately afterward a common occurrence with the young one who took a liking to the man.
“How are you, Young Princess?” Ravus chuckled taking her hand pressing a kiss to her knuckles which got him a huge coo.
“Uncle Ravus will you have time to spar?” Oriens inquired getting a hug
“If you don’t mind teaching an old man new tricks.”
Lunafreya giggled. “You know who’s been waiting to see you.”
“Umbre! Pry!” Regina squealed as Ravus sat her down, as two dogs greeted the children.
“Ravus, how is your wife and little one?” You smiled, taking his hands within your own.
“On bedrest for the time being. We’re expecting soon.” Ravus replied.
“If they are up for visitors I would like to visit.”
“I’m certain they’ll enjoy that.”
“You all must be tired, and we should get Lucet off her feet,” Lunafreya called taking Oriens hand.
“This is heaven compared to the boys.” Lucet giggled, as Gladiolus helped her up the stairs, leave it to the big guy to fret over his battle axe of a spouse.
“You won't be saying that later when you swell, come on.” He chuckled.
You followed your friends and family up the stairs, only to stop and turned, looking to the area that years ago became the final stand, you were so frightened of losing everything and now to find that it all became full circle. Gasping as you felt a hand to your shoulder, only to notice the ringed hand of your husband.
“We’ve been through a lot haven’t we?” Noctis replied.
You nodded softly, “It's so funny now, but at the time I was so scared that I would lose everything here, but this is where everything came together for us.”
Noctis chuckled, pulling you closer to his side, “You did the hard part, all I did was swing around a sword and run around in nature.”
You wrapped your arm around him, hugging him tightly, “I have to say, we’re a pretty good team.”
Noctis pressed a kiss to your forehead, “I think so too.”
“Noctis, Y/N are you coming?”
Noctis chuckled holding out his hand to you, as you saw a flash of your husband when you were both younger, that same smile on his face, “Come with me?”
You smiled brightly, placing your hand within his own, pressing into his side as you linked your fingers a huge smile to your face. So long as either of you reached a hand to one another you knew that it would not be long for it to find its missing half.
note: i’ve had this written in my head for so long but no motivation to sit at my computer and actually type it out. so sorry for the wait. hope this is okay :) also i kind of modified it as i tend to do. i liked the idea of finding moments while on the road to cuddle u/////u
noctis:
noctis is either all for cuddling or he doesn't want to be touched at all, but more often than not he defaults into a cuddly mood even when he doesn't want to be touched
one moment he’ll be upset and pushing you away saying he doesn't want touched and the next he’ll have changed his mind and be hugging you close
he prefers to have you in his arms rather than the other way around
he likes to be completely entwined with you, basically hugs all around
honestly just wrap your body around him like an octopus, but only if he initiates it first
noct isn't one to want to show affection in public or even around his friends but cuddles in the regalia still manage to happen and be one of his favorite things
you’ll be sitting in the back, wedged between noct and gladio and noct will wrap his arm around you so your head is against his shoulder. he’ll pull your legs over his so you are almost in his lap but not quite
he’ll brush the tops of your legs or your hands with his free hand while the other wrapped around you pulls you closer to his body
the soft hum of the car mixed with your breathing relaxes him like nothing else
prompto:
prompto is such a sucker for cuddling
he lacked a lot of that type of affection growing up and now that he has someone to cuddle up to he can’t get enough
he loves the whole big spoon and little spoon dynamic of one person holding the other and honestly he couldn't tell you which he prefers more
prom really enjoys being able to hold you in his arms, your back pressed against him
yet the opposite is just as amazing. theres a particular vulnerability in him letting you hold him as the big spoon and he finds it incredibly comforting
after a particularly tough hunt or fight prompto will find himself making his way back to your warm embrace
alone in the hotel room while the other boys go to eat he’ll let you wrap your arms around him
he likes the warm feeling of your steady breathes against his neck as he tells you about the perils he and the others had faced
he’s unafraid to admit to you just how terrified he was while you gently run your fingers up and down his arms
ignis:
iggy can be surprisingly stiff when you first try to cuddle with him
he’s just not entirely sure what you want of him
where do his hands go?? are they too low on your back?? too high??
luckily he can analyze you pretty quick, making sure to rest his hands best
of course his actual favorite thing is to have his hand entwined with yours when you are cuddled up together
he might hold your hands normally or he might take one hand in his and just gently feel the smoothness and the rough patches of the skin
his fingers mindlessly playing with each joint in your own fingers
some nights after dinner around the campfire when the other boys have gone off to bed he’ll pull you into his lap, chin resting on your shoulder
he’ll buy his face in your neck and hum lightly against your skin while he weaves his fingers with yours
its one of the few times he’ll take off his gloves so he can feel intimately close to you
gladio:
cuddling with gladio is like cuddling a giant muscular teddy bear
rain is one of the best ways to get him in the mood to snuggle up
when the weather is nice he’d rather be outside, but give him poor rainy or snowy weather and the only place he wants to be with you wrapped up in his arms
sleeping bags are his favorite spot to cuddle up
given his size, space becomes limited in the confines of a zipped sleeping bag
the warmth combined with the sheer closeness of your bodies is like heaven on eos
on the road you once got trapped out in a storm and took refuge in the remains of an old barn
gladio of course had camping gear with him and set up a small spot in a dry corner for the two of you to wait out the storm
trying to stay warm, you snuggled up in a single sleeping bag
his hand gently stroked the curve of your back as the two of you listened to the sounds of the rain hitting the old metal roof above your heads
Headcanons for how Noctis would spend his last night with his S/O, knowing he wasn't going to make it out alive of the final battle? I've recently played through chapter 14 again and now I'm in a angsty mood, sfw or nsfw is fine!
Whew. this had me feeling some type of way. I hope this is what you were looking for :)
XXX
From the moment he saw you, Noctis wrapped you in his strong arms - his familiar arms - and pulled you tightly against his chest. Breathing in his scent after so long had your knees weak and tears springing forth in your eyes.
You both knew that this night would be your last together. Tomorrow, the man that had held you heart so close to his own even in that dark void that the Crystal had sucked him in to. He could offer you this last night and nothing more.
“Do not cry,” he begged you as he kissed away your tears knowing full well that he was the one that had brought them on in the first place.
He would hold you and kiss you until you stopped crying. His hands would wander of your body, relearning your curves and edges after so much time had passed knowing it was his only chance to do so.
When he made love to you that night, it was needier, rougher, hungrier, and somehow so much sweeter than it ever had been when you were fumbling kids. This new Noctis, King Noctis, knew his body and seemed to know very well how to use it to work yours.
Before the two of you fell asleep, Noctis would relive all his favorite memories with you from your younger years and listen as you told him everything he had missed in his forced absence.
In the morning when he set off for Insomnia, his friends in tow, Noctis would pull you close one last time and crush his lips to yours until you were breathless and your lips were swollen. “I’ll always be here with you, I promise.” He kisses you once more. “Just look for the sunrise.”
Ignis is the type of guy who likes to set up a romantic dinner date. He would spend whatever it takes to take his s/o to a fancy resturaunt. However, if his s/o prefers staying in his company and his only, he doesn’t mind staying home with them. He knows how to make a good meal, a candle lit dinner for two and rose petals are almost as perfect as a table two. Plus a bottle of wine to really spice things up.
Gladio really isn’t the romantic type. He isn’t really good with it, his specialty is flirting, so he’s not really sure what to do to be ‘romantic’. He eventually settles for a night on the town, sightseeing. And, of course, splurging on his s/o. Though, if they’re not into it, he’d probably take them back to his place and they’d be deciding between take out and cup noodle for dinner.
The prince really doesn’t know how to woo a woman. Noctis has been trained to fight, not win hearts. That didn’t stop him from clicking with his s/o though. His idea of a perfect date is going to the arcade and scarffing down some of the world’s worst pizza together. Afterwards he’d probably show off by winning his s/o something from the ever dreaded claw machine .
He loves taking pictures with his s/o. Which, is why Prompto LOVES taking his s/o on hikes. Of course it’s not really a date the first few times, but eventually he does announce it as such. He’d take his s/o to a waterfall, with a picnic (food courtesy of Specs.)
