Drowning in Lies

Kaciart

Noct is fuming because Prompto has kept this from them

After Ardyn was defeated and Noctis was still alive they started cleaning up

And one of the first things they also sorted was 'hey i totally love you guys soooo~~ Poly??'

Gladio and Iggy were like 'Yes please' and Prom was like 'Sorry, I uh, I don't see you guys that way'

He's a lying liar who lies

But he's been lying for so long now what another

I imagine part of the way through WoR he noticed this rash and it got worse

And he hadn't mentioned it to anyone and then so long passed he was like 'WELL NOW I CANT'

Maybe he'd seen it on MTs and was like

Well, I'm gonna die so, lets not bring down the mood and i'll just keep it to myself

And being in a relationship with the boys would mean he couldnt hide it

So despite loving them LOTS he can't do it

But this is good...right?? They have eachother

They'll have such a strong support

Only they're like

'You really dont??'

'No, Im really sorry guys but I'm so happy for you!!'

And later Noct and his 2 bros are like 'well that sounded fake as shit'

So its time to turn on the charm and woo him

So they try, they really do but Prom is set on distancing himself from them

He takes every opportunity to get away from them

Takes all the missions that require travelling

And theyre conflicted because theyre very happy with eachother but something is clearly missing

Or rather someone

Maybe they try different tactics

Gladio's idea was to have a man to man talk

'You're making Noct sad D<'

Because that normally makes Prom drop everything

Proms like 'He's got you guys he'll be fine'

Ignis is like 'Individual Prom time perhaps??'

Like lets go on essentially dates with him

Rather than all 3 of us coming at him

Noct is set on FLUSTERING HIM

'Gladio sent me this pic the other day~~'

'Come on Prom, one gay man to another - lets appreciate this'

'yeahitsniceigottago'

Until eventually something happens

Maybe hes struggling to hide the limp

Or he hides it well but thinks he's out of sight

And nope he caught

Imagine them asking and hes like 'NOPE IM FINE'

And when they try to check hes like 'Geez guyssss bad touch!!'

Gladios like

'I got this (he doesnt) what about a sparring contest

We're being lazy we should be practicing - just because ardyns gone doesnt mean we can slack

So being a dick...but also the correct way to fight, he goes for the weakness

They just werent expecting Prom to start screaming and black out

WELL DONE GLADIO

So like the creepers they are - Now's our chance!!

And they check the injury assuming he's not looked after himself and he has an infection

But they find this

And I feel like Gladio and...yeah Ignis, lets give him his sight back, have probably seen it on the MTS

so while its new to Noct they recognise it

So Noct is FURIOUS because Proms been keeping it from them

Lying to them

And Proms like 'well, heres a chance I guess - Time to make them mad so theyll cast me out'

Only They know your self sacrificing bs Prompto

Theyre gonna see right through you

Theyre MAD AS HELL but they love you

Gladio's like 'what if we just chop it off at the knee!'

Ignis: Maybe we look for a cure before we do irreparable damage!'

They have time, its been a slow spread

I kind of imagine it ends up being a relatively simple fix

Like, look at all the heartache you endured

Aranea has seen it on officers that were near the labs

Theres a serum tehy used to inject

Gladio makes a chopping motion raising his brows

Ignis punches him in the arm

She's like 'you're stuck with it like this but you can stop it spreading any further'

Noct probably has it broken down so they can created him a lucian version

So it never runs out

Noct is like 'Okay well not we have a question for you

'Will you date us?'

'You still want me?? ;_;'

Prom youre so dumb, youre lucky youre cute
