The dark won't leave. 

Ignis knows this, feels it in the way that his eyes burn, even if closed, even if covered. He understands that this is something permanent, and wonders what to tell the others about it- if they do meet again.

There certainly is the possibility that they won't, but the man will not entertain it, so instead he thinks of answers and excuses. Words to calm his friends once they do meet again, his mind wonders if they're okay, if they wonder about him.

All is too overwhelming, so instead he focuses on new tasks, tasks like trying to make a mental map of this new place he's found himself in- and growing accustomed to the white cane, and so he walks, taking in fresh air and counting steps.

It's then when, perhaps by shaking it too hard- it seems as he's hit something or actually, someone, in the ankle

"Oh, please excuse me. I'm still clumsy with this"

VALENTINE’S DAY ALPHABET! || not accepting !

AFFECTION.   how does your muse show affection? 

“never really thought about it before, i just kinda do it… oh, i guess i joke around a lot and stuff! and i’m pretty touchy, but you already knew that.” now there’s a severe understatement. “pretty touchy” doesn’t exactly cover how often his friends have to deal with him getting all up in their bubbles! he’d cut down on it if anyone seemed uncomfortable, but that’s basically his most obvious form of affection.

one specific thing he does for people he cares about is put 100x more effort into making sure they’re included in photos. taking a shot of a tasty dish? gotta find the right angle so [insert buddy here] can be in it too! it sounds simple, sure, but it’s a big deal considering how important photography is to him. if it’s good enough, he’ll even make it his wallpaper until the next best one comes along!

DATE.   what is your muse’s ideal date? where / who with / etc?
