    Summary

    “I think something’s wrong with Iggy,” Prompto whispers, slightly paranoid that Ignis is going to hear him talking behind his back.

    “Huh?” Gladio glances at the haven where Ignis has just left an empty plate inside the cooler and then forgotten to close it. “Nah, he’s fine. That’s just how he is in the morning.”

    “You mean that’s just Sleepy Morning Iggy?”

    Summary

    Media scandals aren't so easy to escape when you're closely connected to the royal family, and even harder to dodge when the news is hell-bent on reporting everything to do with the juicy relationship between the Prince's best friend and the Prince's advisor.

    There's just one thing, though: Prompto and Ignis aren't actually in a relationship at all.

    Summary

    Prompto rolled over, laying his feet across Gladio. “Yeah, but what if I get something like a worm? What if I'm a worm, Gladio?”
    “You're not going to be a worm,” Gladio said. “Probably.”
    “Probably,” Noctis agreed, still not looking up from his phone.

    Summary

    “Your magic takes a lot of energy though, doesn’t it?” Prompto points out. He’s curled into the corner of the couch with Noct’s legs across his lap, idly playing with the stretchy part of Noct’s socks as they’re talking. “Other people don’t have to deal with that.”

    Prompto has a point, but also not. His dad has never had any problems with any of those things, and he’s keeping up an entire magic wall above the city, and he’s running a country on top of it. Noct has to do none of those things, and he still can’t even manage the bare minimum.

    He tells Prompto as much and then adds, “Besides, it’s not even just, homework and cleaning and stuff. Sometimes I can’t even watch a movie or play a game or anything. It’s like I feel completely empty and everything’s a chore, even things I like doing. It’s just all so much effort.

    Summary

    Gladio isn’t stupid, he knows Ignis won’t use this unexpected downtime for, you know, downtime. Instead, he’ll just get started on something else, or find even more work to do or something. By now, Gladio has witnessed this kind of thing often enough that he knows no amount of reasoning, bargaining or even pleading is going to do anything. People think him stubborn, but by the Six, they’ve never met Iggy.

    There’s really nothing for him to do but watch and wait until Ignis inevitably crashes and burns.

    And so, it barely comes as a surprise when Noct calls him in near-hysterics just two days later, babbling that “Gladio, something’s wrong with Ignis!” and Prompto, in the background, says something that sounds like “panic attack”. Barely a surprise because the only part of this that truly is surprising is that Ignis is apparently worse off than Gladio thought if he didn’t even manage to slink away like a dying cat in order to suffer his nervous breakdown away from the kids like he usually does.
