[ So long as it's all business, Ignis thinks that he can maintain a level of decorum and escape this breakfast unscathed. Now he's the one who's a coward, avoiding conversations that he doesn't want to have by ignoring the real question underneath.

The Council will likely question Noctis half to death - what caused it, what was the reasoning, why did she initiate it instead of him, but he can't help with that right now. ]
