[As much as he tries to hold it back, a shuddered breath slips from Ignis mouth when he hears Noctis' reply. He leans into that touch, shutting his right eye for several moments as he lets the bone deep relief run though him. Deep down, there was part of him that was certain Noctis would lash out at him. That this would be the thing to drive them apart for good.]

I'm not the only one...

[He doesn't mean to say it out loud, but his relief sees that it happens anyway. It feels like so much weight has lifted from Ignis' shoulders. He's not the only one that knows for certain now. He's not carrying this alone anymore.

It shouldn't feel as good as it does, he knows this, but for right now, he doesn't let himself care.]


I caught a glimpse during one of the early story telling sessions. ...Scientia vincere tenebras. is what he said as if it were some kind of prayer he didn't want anyone else to hear. We clashed a lot in those early days simply because of who we are and the fact I felt someone had to keep an eye on him even with the truce in place. He claimed it merely a taunt later, of course, but then he saved my life and I knew there was more to it than that.
