ok so i lovelovelove everything you've written here so far! can I ask for how the chocobros would handle their s/o being a touchyfeely/affectionate kinda person? the sort that'd lay across everyone's laps in the backseat to get more comfy or call for a cuddlepile in the tent if it's been a rough day. like even tho there's no ulterior motives would anyone get jealous about their s/o being snuggly with the other bros? would anyone be like 'hell yeah let's all hug it out'? :O whatchu think
Thank you so much anon! ^^ I really like this one a lot! Lemme seeā¦
Noctis:
Noctis would have a tough time with this one, especially since heās not the best at expressing his emotions. The constant aggravation building up each time he saw his s/o getting sweet with another would grate on him, causing him to go quiet and bottle up all his confusion and rage until it started to eat at their relationship. They might not understand why Noct is being so cold and distant, unable to figure out what the problem is even when pressing to talk with him about it. Noctis simply doesnāt understand how they donāt know what the problem is, and he canāt figure out how to voice it himself.
Eventually things come to a head. His s/o notices the others pulling away more and more whenever Noctis comes around, worried about antagonizing the prince even more. When this doesnāt stop his s/o, and heās forced to spend a long, grueling car ride side eyeing them resting against Gladioās shoulder and making themselves comfortable during a long trip in the Regalia, Noctis loses it. He doesnāt follow the others inside the caravan, instead hanging around the car much to his s/oās alarm. The moment they walk up to ask whatās the matter Noctis goes off, misdirecting his rage that had been built up for so long, choosing to have things come out in a storm rather than taking the time to calmly voice his concern.
Of course his harsh behavior isnāt taken well, which would likely lead to some mounting tension unless his s/o is patient enough to put his attitude aside and get through to him. Once he realizes what a big fuss he was making over nothing he might feel a little silly, although itās nothing that some extra attention canāt cure. Just as long as Noctis still feels like his s/o is his and no one elseās he gets along just fine. Just donāt let him go forgetting it. And donāt expect him to know what to do if heās invited in on a cuddle pile either. He might join in, but he canāt help the awkward tension that drips off him until he either finds an excuse to get up and leave or until heās forced to get used to it, clinging on his s/o for comfort the entire time.
Gladio:
I think Gladio would definitely take it the wrong way at first. Perhaps even if he was warned beforehand that they were the cuddly type. He still wouldnāt be able to get over the initial shock of his s/o getting so close and comfortable with his brothers, of all people. However, the longer he gets to know his s/o, the more heād come to realize just how meaningless it was, although that wouldnāt stop him from butting in to the center of all the cuddle piles, plopping down in the middle like a big, 200 lb lap dog to show everyone who was top dog in their life.
He might need to have a talk before things got to that point though, perhaps coming on a bit too aggressively as he yanks his s/o aside, catching them as they lay across Noctās lap at the edge of the campfire, Noct propped up and seated comfortably against his chocobo. If theyāre gonna be cuddly, he just doesnāt understand why they canāt be cuddly all over him. Itās not like there wasnāt enough of him to love. Insecurities pushed aside with a puffing of his chest and a bulky set of tightly crossed arms, his s/o wouldnāt have to work hard at reassuring him. After all, he only really needs to hear that thereās still things he can do to them that no one else can, and that he means more to them than the others.
Satisfied enough knowing that, heāll settle with pulling them away himself whenever he feels enough is enough, providing them with a sea of big, warm cuddles and all the physical affection they could ever need. And honestly, he could care less about the whistling and teasing jives from the others, heās perfectly happy right where he is. However, that isnāt to say he doesnāt mind a cuddle pile from time to time. In fact, heāll admit itās rather nice having the others flock to him like a giant space heater, a body on each side of him nestled close for comfort.Ā
Prompto:
Prompto is the most likely to be the āhell yeah letās hug it all outā kinda guy, although he would handle a warning beforehand much better than being left to wonder why his s/o is suddenly getting all close on one of his bros. It would take him a while to bring it up, however, convincing himself that it wasnāt his place to try and interfere with his s/oās decisions, even if it did make him a little uncomfortable.
However, the more often heās invited in on the cuddle piles, the snuggles, and the loving affection, the less heāll mind and the more heāll just enjoy being a part of it all. He isnāt used to the other guys warming up to physical affection so well. Maybe there was just something special about his s/o, but he wouldnāt complain realizing that he was now able to join in on a big cuddle pile with all the people that meant the most to him.
Rather than flashing a jealous eye, Prompto is much more likely to see his s/o being so affectionate as a good thing and a chance for him to join in and create a cuddle party out of it, although he might wonder why the bros arenāt so keen to get close and personal with him when his cuddly s/o isnāt in the mix. Oh well, such is the price they pay for sharing such a great cuddle partner. If they canāt enjoy Promptoās snuggles just as well, then they can go to bed cold.
Ignis:
Ignis is the most likely to keep silent on the matter, although his mind is playing through a hundred and one scenarios and explanations in his head. He might be upset at first, although he isnāt the type to make a big deal about things before taking the time to carefully think of how best to approach the matter. However, he does have a bit of a problem with physical affection. Although he might receive a lot from his s/o, he has a hard time reciprocating. Therefore, he might blame this on his s/oās desire to seek affection from others, and he canāt really say he blames them. Although his misdirected thought process will still hurt, heāll decide ultimately not to say anything about it unless things cross some sort of line.
Passing glances and longing gazes will be the extent of dissatisfaction present in Ignisā actions, that is, unless itās left to go on long enough for his happiness in the relationship to be seriously affected. No sense sticking out through something he doesnāt feel he fits into. However, so long as his s/o works at never letting the man feel left out of the affection, and they continue to dote on him until heās able to find his own way to warm up to them physically, heās happy just to be here.
