[ He understands the frustration, is aware that there is one hell of a something that Ignis isn't telling him. But perhaps he will when he's ready -- pushing him for it when he feels this shaky and ill is a cruel thing to do, and Noctis can't bring himself to press him for it no matter how curious he is.
Oh, that momentary Prompto likeness is cute, and Noctis helps him shed his shirt. Ignis smells a little musky, different from how he usually does, but Noctis doesn't care when he's wiping the cold towel over his back, gently urging him up so he can get at his chest and stomach as well. It won't help much to lower his temperature, but at least it's something.

He remembers how he'd gotten all those scars, how Ignis was crumpled in a pile and Noctis has panicked, terrified that he would lose him too.
But he didn't, and Noctis murmurs in his ear, smiling. ] You're the bravest, most wonderful man I've ever had the privilege of loving. Do you know that? I think you do. I mean, the other candidates pretty much suck.
