[ Noctis grumbles good-naturedly, but the tips of his ears are pink at Ignis' praise, and he releases him when his phone vibrates, marking down the time that they have with each other. He has to go, and Noctis cannot ask him to stay. He leans up only for one last, soft kiss, before nodding. ]

[ Come back soon, he doesn't add. And when Ignis leaves, Noctis settles, quietly unsatisfied, into his blankets. The next day or so passes at a snail's pace, too long and too slow, marked by Ignis' absence. But Prompto does a pretty good job at cheering him up, and the blessed few hours he spends in his company speeds by. But Prompto has work to do as well, and Noctis is loathe to ask him to stay -- he's been doing an excellent job training the new soldiers, and he's never been more proud of his best friend's accomplishments.
But then it's night time, and surely Ignis must have reached and settled down, gotten a few meetings out of the way, too, and he texts him. ]
