[ Ignis gives Noctis a curious glance, but he looks more worried than anything. Sighing softly, he slowly turns and tugs Noctis into a hug.
He knows that it can't be easy, to hear that the people he considers to be family to have moved on. They've grieved over Noctis, but no one hadn't expected him to come back. Ignis was willing to wait out his own death, through natural means.
Then Noctis showed up out of thin air. ]
I know it hurts to hear. I'm here if you need a moment.
[ He's concerned about the cut off from Noctis' statement too. ]
We're your family, Noct, no matter what.
[ Even if Ignis is somewhat thankful that Gladio hadn't shown up when he, himself, was still weakened from the first attack. Gladio's gotten more protective over Ignis and he doesn't think that he would've been able to stop him from attacking Noctis. It'll take Gladio a lot more convincing, even if he has mellowed out over the years. Prompto being accepting of Noctis being alive wasn't too much of a surprise though. ]
[Noctis shakes his head, recognizing his own foolishness. They already have enough to worry about, he doesn't need to start fussing over whether or not he belongs. It's been so long, and he can't expect to immediately slot himself into the life he barely remembers having before. Not just the five years since his death, but the ten years he was absent for... life had to go on without him. He'd feel worse if they'd done nothing but wait for him. This is better, it's just going to take a while to adjust to it. With his memories missing, you'd think it would be easier to adapt to a new normal. Still, it isn't without its own struggles.
With a quiet, tired sigh, he tugs back.]
Let's just eat and get some rest. Still got lots to do before we can see them again.
[ Ignis sighs quietly as he pulls back from the hug, grabbing the bowls and moving them to the table. Dinner is more or less quiet chatter now, he can't fault Noctis for feeling the way he does. Ignis doesn't know what he'll do in his position, being gone for fifteen years total abouts, memories gone. Noct's trying his best to adapt though, he can tell.
He grabs a quick shower before crawling into bed before letting Noctis get a shower in if he wants to. Once they're both situated, Ignis gently tugs Noctis into a cuddle embrace, wrapping his arms around his boyfriend. ]
I love you, [ he murmurs quietly, slipping into sleep. ]
