#kid!noct

Childcare for Dummies, by ladygabe This is sweet! I love how Noct reacts after getting de-aged, and poor Iggy's attempts to remain cool. Lots of fun and cute interactions between the guys with the usual kid-briefly-in-danger hijinks.

A Beta's Crash Course in Pack Management, by avianscribe ABO stuff has a rep for being all about sex, but there's nothing explicit in this one. It's just a cute fluffy take on one of the pack turning into a kid and everyone losing their minds with the usual instincts-making-me-act-a-little-crazy twist that's typical for ABO stuff. Also features the usual 'someone's a kid, gotta call Cor' sideplot that I love.

All These Years and There You Were, by everylemon Okay honestly, this fic is a big part of the reason I made this art in the first place. I love the guys getting to see Noct grow up, in a way. There's also a twist to this one that might break your heart, but the knife-thrust that is canon XV is something we're all familiar with at this point. I love the guys fretting over Noct and his eating habits, plus Gladio being more familiar with tending a baby. And then the last chapter.... ;_;

give your heart and soul to charity, by egelantier This time Noct isn't the baby! Honestly, this fic is more ouch than fluff, but it's such good ouch for when you need that kind of thing, and there's some sweetness towards the end to balance it out. The guys are complex and messy, and young Iggy is so clearly the grown-up Iggy we know but with all his defenses stripped away.
