He wipes his boots on the mat before stepping inside of Ignis’s new place, and is careful to remove his shoes, and place them where Ignis does. The floors are covered with plastic sheets that have bumps indicating where a doorway or furniture is. He doesn’t really know, he does assume it is for Ignis, given how he walks.

An offer for a drink, and Cor politely declines, instead, he follows to the living room, sparsely decorated, considering most of them have only just moved in to Lestallum due to the recent weather and darkness. “I never personally trained you.” Cor immediately started. He did train Gladiolus personally, and even Prompto, only because of the rush to hire him. Noctis was a different story, but even then, he saw the Prince more than Ignis.

“Despite that, I consider you the most competent.” He doesn’t make that past tense. He knows, given the right tools, Ignis is still probably the most competent. He wondered if Gladiolus ever told Ignis a few horror stories about how hard Cor trained him, but he supposed it was arrogant to assume others would talk about him.

Send me a “ 🔥 “ for an unpopular opinion.

you know, it’s 2019. if someone is writing something that you, personally, deem “”””””bad”””””” - guess what? if they’re of age, then they can write whatever they want. just because you think it’s bad does not mean they do. chances are someone is aware of the implications behind whatever they’re writing, especially older fandom members. and even if they’re not older? guess what! people can write whatever they want. there’s so much Political CorrectnessTM on tumblr these days that it’s ridiculous. the thing about roleplay is it’s a safe and non-invasive way to explore some subjects. true, there are some things that happen that should send up major red flags, and i’ve heard about them - but honestly, so long as both parties are of age, and they’re both agreeable to the idea, and they know what they’re doing? then who cares. if shit is tagged, use tumblr savior or xkid’s built-in blacklist function to blacklist the tag and, voila, you’ll never see it again. and you can tweak both of those things to find and catch posts that you don’t want to see. i use savior when it comes to a certain ship in the ffxv fandom and it works very well. but honestly, there are so many ways to deal with things that make you uncomfortable.

also, it’s 2019? stop vaguing. just send an ask to someone if they posted something untagged and POLITELY ask them to tag the post or to tag all such posts containing whatever subject matter you don’t want to see in the future. i promise you that if you just go ‘hey, could you please tag x for me? i’d appreciate it!’ with people, if they’re not a dick, they’ll tag that stuff for you. and if someone’s behavior or anything else bothers you? unfollow them. or softblock them. there’s so many options you can do. vaguing is such an incredibly petty thing to do and extremely passive-aggressive as well. and if you truly must talk about someone’s behavior or how they bother you? do it in private. it’s not that hard to do. 

and for my third point? just let people write what they want. it’s their blog. don’t police the fandom. don’t police what people write. don’t gatekeep. i assure you that people are probably aware of the whole “x subject is bad” thing and all the implications and stuff that come with it. but here’s the thing. people are going to write this stuff anyways. people have been writing what other people consider BadTM for ages. just because something doesn’t appeal to one person does not mean that it doesn’t appeal to someone else. it is entirely possible to enjoy something that can be seen as bad while being able to critically point out the flaws in it. but i mean, fandom has been around for ages. long before tumblr. people have always been people. so, you know, so long as both parties are able to consent to whatever’s going on and understand it? who gives a fuck. 

no one can stop the ignis.

five-word sentences: closed

》 Seated outside, Gladio had been staring into the fire, brows furrowing hard. His father would’ve told him they’d get stuck like that, but if he remembered him, it was always with the same contemplating expression. Yet he couldn’t get himself to think of him as a hypocrite. The shield’s fingers had been curled into a fist, and he relaxed them when he heard Iggy’s voice.

noctis’ breath hitched, his cheeks flushing as his head caught up with the situation. his blue eyes were wide, taking in ignis’ features in detail. he couldn’t remember if they’d ever been this close before. the prince was poorly prepared for such an action, the proximity to his lifelong advisor and cherished friend was far from lost on him. 

“ignis - ?” his voice surprised him, lacking his normal carefree tone. instead it had been replaced by a tremor of uncertainty. notcis knew things had been different to an extreme degree after altissia, but he had tried his best to not let that change how he treated his friends. gladio was making that difficult to say the least but ignis, hell ignis was trying so hard and it pained noct to see him struggling. 

every time he looked at ignis he felt guilt lance through him, just as sharply as it had upon first realizing the heavy loss ignis had taken. almost on its own accord his hand lifted, settling hesitantly on his advisor’s cheek. his thumb brushed gently over his scarred cheek, and not for the first time noct felt like he couldn’t breath. 

“Gimme a break, Specs,” he murmured as he slumped down on his couch after a long day at school. Ignis was already there, having not only cleaned his apartment but started on dinner so the Prince wouldn’t have to eat Cup Noodles for the third night in a row.

There was a file on his coffee table and he knew full well Ignis expected him to read it. It was no doubt full of notes and comments from the last council meeting. Noctis very rarely attended them since he had school, but he was expected to read the notes Ignis made for him.

Preparation for the day he became King, they all told him. 

Right now, Noctis just wanted to get through high school.

Send me a “ 💞 ” and I will talk about a blog I adore

AK. Probably the first person who interacted w/ me on here that didn’t know me from one of my previous blogs. We started by throwing memes back and forth and the kisses meme happened and she messaged me to ask / clarify some stuff. I’ve mentioned it before but I went into FFXV not shipping anything and then. We bounced a few ideas back and forth, put together the first thread and ho boy. FEELS. The kiss thread and then the sharing the bed thread. AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Be it asks or threads, they’ve grown together so much. And even w/ the bumps in the road, it’s still so much joy to see where things go. 

OKAY OKAY. 

You want a soft bean? Then look no further. It’s so easy to talk ooc w/ AK and honestly, I’m glad that we started doing it. From muse stuff to just everyday things to anything in-between. Like that sweet Pin.teres.t board that makes me weep every time I look @ it. And, like. All the muses!! It’s interesting seeing her take on both Gladio and Prom and to see the differences between hers and mine. Even tho our current interactions Hurt sdfghjkl.

“ Stasis.  .  . “ and, Six, he can feel it so deep into his bones to the point that he’s pretty sure that even sleeping for an entire week won’t lessen the ache. He’s been pushing himself extra hard in the past few days for who knows what reason to the point that his body would go into the damned state regardless of whether he can or can’t still use magic. A sort of self-shutdown to make sure that he doesn’t end up killing himself via magic exhaustion, he supposes.
