"wait, where's *name*"
Kaciart
Gladio has to GRAB him
'Noctis we cant stop!'
Theyre fighting and they hear 'I've got him'
oh the Iggy put an idea into my head
LIKE
Noct tries to emotionally manipulate Gladio to go back
'You don't care about him!! Youre heartless!!!'
Because Gladnis is a thing
OMG
IMAGINE
AHHH
Later when theyre safe and Prom's being looked after Ignis walking up to Noctis and slapping him across the face
'Respectfully your Highness, NEVER do that to Gladiolus again'
Like Gladio came to Ignis after and quietly apologised
But Ignis was like 'Gladio, love this is how it must be.'
Minumi
noct only gets the "your highness" when he's royally FUCKED UP
imagine even Prom's mad at him for it
Kaciart
yessss
I love it, Noct would be so defensive before admitting he was wrong
Minumi
like a hissy kitten
before ignis smacks some shame into him
Kaciart
minu its kind of like your phrase
'at least i show i care'
'DUDE'
Says Prom
which says everything that needs to be said
imagine Students actually got killed
And theres a BUNCH of parents either protesting Nocts place in the school
Or pulling their kids out
like major victim blaming after
Minumi
that would make total sense
prince's presence is endangering their children
Kaciart
thats the headline in the tabloids
'Who's really to blame here?'
Minumi
give noct a taste of how quick public opinion is to sway against the royals
Kaciart
UH THE ATTACKERS
yessss
Minumi
after the attacks, his dad is also questioning the wisdom of allowing him to stay in classes, suggests he go back to palace tutoring
and while maybe noct was not enthralled with school, he goes nuts at the thought of not being able to see prom on the daily
Kaciart
hes never been friends with someone so vulnerable
Minumi
awww yes that makes sense
i imagine at this stage of his training, gladio and iggy both regularly kick his ass still
he's not used to civilian company
Kaciart
drawing the tie made another chunk of dialogue come to mind
Like Noct tried to justify his actions
Prom would have died if he was left behind
He would have bled out from the injury
And Noctis says as much and Gladio snaps
'Thats what HAPPENS to people Noctis when- wait no'
Like he's not blaming Noctis but its a reality of people in Noctis' level of power
People close to them are much more likely to die as a direct result
Gladio and Ignis have both come to terms with this likelihood
which like with the school situation
would Noctis just agree to be taken out
Minumi
they've had to grow up so fast in order to be what Noct needs ; w;
Kaciart
because he's thinking 'Maybe Prompto would be safer away from him
Maybe also by this time Ignis and Gladio know Prom well enough to accept that 'yeah PROBABLY would be but is it the best for him? Maybe not'
So theyre not going to turn Prom away
Noct can do what he wants but they'll be friends with Prom
SUCK IT Noct
They also know how good Prom is for Noct so theyre like 'like not to state the obvious dumbass but if youre worried about his vulnerability maybe, I dunno, do something about it???
Prom probably understands too so its like
Stage one was when he was younger and worked on himself to meet Noct at highschool
Stage 2 is to knuckle down and train until hes strong enough for Noct to feel better about him being there
IMAGINE
8D Noct being told he's going to be sparring with some recruits
and yeah a lot of it is the shock but Prom initially wipes the floor with him
Minumi
HOOOOOHHH SECRET SKILLS??
or does noct let him?
Kaciart
no hes just gobsmacked XD
and Prom doesnt hold back
Because Noct is just defensively fighting him
Until he ends up on his ass more than once
And ahhh i have this image of Noct being like
'This is the OPPOSITE OF WHAT I WANTED'
And he comes at Prom and theres a part where he has prom pinned to the floor and he's like 'SEE' and Proms like 'might want to look down Bud'
And Proms gun is under his ribs
which is faster pulling a trigger or having to draw back for a sword
Minumi
Noct would be both aggravated and aroused
Kaciart
yes XD
and i do feel his MT bg helped him progress
Cors like 'Ive never seen a recruit progress so fast'
Minumi
sublimnal programming coming to life
Kaciart
But Prom is DETERMINED and focused
Minumi
imagine the tabloids catch this image and they twist it to be like, the cowardly prince
ushered to safety while students DIE
Kaciart
YESSS
When hes literally fighting to get back
omg thats like the REAL problem these days - propaganda
They select a single image of a whole that spells something totally different
Imagine the Crown after being like 'lets stop these senseless rumours once and for all
and they realease the full CCTV of Gladio having to shake sense into Noct
Dragging him out of there
'That financial aid that all the affected families received??
Nothing to do with the Crown covering up that was all Noctis
Minumi
T AT
a true prince
Kaciart
Like I imagine anyone sending their kids there had to sign all kinds of waivers and NDAs
Minumi
you dropped this baby š
Kaciart
But like the fame and trust that nothing would actually happen had them ignoring it
to be able to say they were a classmate of Noctis is like instanting starting a few rungs up the ladder
Minumi
yeeaaaahhh
got more than they bargained for
Kaciart
Like maybe in Regis' time it was just as bad
Do your research
this is jus a very sad aspect to it
Ellaygee
collateral damage comes with the territory for sure
Kaciart
oh alsooo
Imagine after when Prompto realises Noctis isnt going to come back
Hes like '....why am i putting up with these snobs and STRUGGLING to keep this scholarship in a school of prejudice from all angles'
the kids and teachers
so he talks with Gladio and Ignis and they help him transfer
like he was probably graded WAY harsher than other kids and every mistake pointed out and sneered at
So he goes to a public school and goes from bottom of the class to top
IMAGINE 8D
If the school didnt realise that the only reason all of the funding that was being filtered into it as part of Noctis' enrolment was only continuing while Prom was there
Parmelde
This is like the tenth time tonight Julie said imagine and I'm just like yes please keep going I have not stopped. XD
Kaciart
LOOOLL
SORRY XD
Like the school was paid handsomely to be fitted with security and safety measures
Minumi
so their funding goes with prom
Kaciart
YESSS
And theyre notified
Prom starts getting letters and calls from the school
'Please come back mister Argentum, we'll look closer at the issues youve presented to us in the past'
Minumi
prom picks a public school, a week later that school gets an anoymous donation that gives the director a heart attack x'D
Kaciart
OMG YES Minu!
He'd be so much more appreciated
OH!
He gets called into the Principals office and he's like 'okay, i got in trouble FAST and i dont even know what i did'
And theyre like 'SO WE'RE PLANNING TO IMPROVE ALL THIS STUFF'
Like renovating the gym thats been hanging on by a thread and theyre like 'we were thinking to name the building after you'
'Oh Gods, please dont!'
getting all new supplies
New books, a canteen update
Minumi
julie, he'd tell them to name it after his friend who was killed
Kaciart
the computer lab getting all new machines
OH
OMG
MINUUU
ahh thats so good
He's such a good bean
Sending pics of his grades to Iggy
the way he was graded in the Private school he'd have barely qualified for crownsguard training
Now he's in the top percentile
