[Prompto's image appears on the network with a worried expression on his face. He's already in his pjs (tank top and chocobo yellow pj bottoms) and he's pretty sure Iggy's already in bed but.. there's a very big and important 'something' missing from his room.]

Hey uh.. sorry for bugging everyone but uh..

[He glances back at his room uncertain.]

Has anyone seen Gladio? Buddy? If you're around will you just.. I don't know, shout 'Marco' or something for me? If you need alone time or whatever, that's cool. I won't come bother you but.. just..

[What if Gladio really was needing some alone time and he was being stupid about this? He didn't want to be harassing the poor guy.]

Never mind.

He was standing in the middle of the floor, with the blanket dangling over his arm but he looked at Tony just wanting to memorize the man's face in every single detail. His expression was obviously upset but he was keeping everything inside. He would have to be the pillar of strength for Noct and Prompto so putting his feelings in a bottle was simply second nature.

Ignis felt the hand on his and was pulled down. He said nothing as Tony touched his cheek and stared into the dark eyes as if they held his answers. "I know..." The head lowered and his eyes closed, feeling a few tears there. "I'm still so sorry. I must've worried you something awful." Guilt swept through him and he gently swiped at them.


At hearing to give himself a moment though, the blondish head shook. "I don't have time darling, they're both so lost." Not to mention Noctis was shutting down, Prompto was crying and Ignis had his hands full. This didn't even start to include how he personally felt about his childhood friend up and leaving. They sparred together, they drank together, Gladio was the first one to know Ignis was into guys..and the list went on.

And the tears just kept coming quietly.

Tony hugged the other man tight before slowly releasing him. "It's okay, sweetheart. We survived and the important thing is you're home now." There was no point in remembering the bad if he had Ignis back in his arms. They both had a bad habit of hurting each other, but so far nothing had been broken to an irreversible level.

"Okay, love. Then go do what you need to do. If you need help though, call me. I'll come and help, even if it's just to get you some medicine for the headache they're about to give you."

Green eyes still held worry as they raked over Tony's face as if to memorize every single detail. He'd swiped his earlier tears away and nodded at the words. It still hurt him to think of how Tony and Madoka must've taken to his disappearance and he didn't have one word of explanation regarding it.

He took a hitched breath and headed to the door with his blanket and pillow. After the other two would fall asleep, Ignis would come check on his hero anyway. This disappearance was bothering him far more than he could let the king or Prompto know.

Turning to look back at the knight's face when he spoke again, there was a smile on the advisor's face. "I appreciate that darling."
