it's less weird than putting percentages on my butt fat, but only by like a little bit. h/o i have to go over everything you said cause i'm still not believing this

you don't think i'm.........idk. annoying? or always in the way?

[piercetheheart]

Shit dude of course you're annoying, we all are sometimes. But you're idk annoying in a cute way. Cute like endearing.

Just- fuck forget it.

[Look he's not the type to get embarrassed easily but there's kind of a lot more risk potentially involved in telling your Prince's BFF that he's cute as shit and you wanna wreck him.]

[photoshooter]

oh. well, ok. uh thanks for telling me, haha it's not every day someone tells you you're cute. or well maybe it is for you. i mean not CUTE because you're on a whole other level entirely but you know what i mean.

thank you, really. don't worry i won't bring it up again, it already means enough that you of all people said something like that. （＾ｖ＾）

[piercetheheart]

See? That. THAT is cute.

Not used to being awkward about this shit okay. Also not used to it y'know... mattering for more than a few hours.

[photoshooter]

[Oh. So it's cute when he kind of lies about himself, about how he's going to hold onto Gladio's words forever, rolling them back and forth in his mind like a stone between his palms until, from the sheer inability to let it go, he weathers this moment down smooth like river glass.]

lmao well you told me to forget it, right? doo doo dooOO.... ꉂꉂ~꒰POOF!!!꒱~✩

there was never any awkwardness here at all! just a cool guy telling me a nice thing with no consequences whatsoever, except the consequence of me feeling really nice about it. no wonder the ladies fall at your feet, i feel a swoon coming on myself!

ASHER HOW DARE YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS

[piercetheheart]

Well good. you should feel good about it. or just... in general.

[He wants Prompto to feel good about himself. To be happy and have that nice warm fuzzy feeling and maybe help him find that but that's sappy and stupid and it's one thing convincing some hot chick at a bar that he can rock her world and never see her again but it's something very different when he legitimately just wants to be the thing that makes someone smile. Especially when that smile is as bright and dazzling as Prompto's and fuck if he hasn't gone all sappy again.]

Not trying to be charming dude, just real. I mean if you're really not interested in Noct. Obviously if you got a thing for the Princess you... do that.

YOU INVITED ME HERE, YOU KNOW WHAT I AM

[photoshooter]

?? don't be a dork, big guy. i wouldn't stand in your way. but i thought you were into iggy? you called him a god.

I should've known better :p

[piercetheheart]

You practically called him a wet dream? And I love Iggy but damn he's too uptight for me.

wait what do you mean "stand in my way"?

[photoshooter]

welllllllllll you told me to forget it even tho you said all that stuff about my ass, so i realized i was making too big a deal out of something you were just trying to be a good friend about. and then you said the thing about not being interested in noct, so, i mean. you have my blessing as his best friend! live your dreams, big guy! land that royal catch!

[piercetheheart]

Prom what

no

[Okay give him a minute to unfluster and convince himself it's nbd if he gets turned down.]

I was talking about your ass because I like it and if you and Noct AREN'T a thing or if you're not wanting to be a thing then maybe you (and he lbr) would be cool if I said so. Because I do. Because there's not much about you I DON'T like. And I told you to forget it cause I don't know what I'm doing and I feel like an idiot.

Because I might be able to land a hook up no problem but I've never really like been with anyone, dating wise. There's just so much shit on my plate already but you know that and you know what the job means and I-

You can tell me to shut up or you can come get ice cream with me. Like. As a date?

[photoshooter]

[Oh, wow. There is 100% nothing here for Prompto to safely misinterpret and get them back to what's known, what's familiar, what they both understand their roles in the world to be. He's left staring dumbly at his phone, eyes traveling back and forth over the words as if the seventh time, surely, they'll make sense.

With me. Like. As a date?

Prompto only realizes he's forgetting to blink when his eyes start to burn. He swallows and types a stupid answer.]

ice cream's cool.

so is dating. you know theoretically, 'cause i've never

shit i didn't mean to send that!! oh no now i'm the loser ORZZZZZZZZZ.

gladio i know i gotta sound like a broken record at this point but are you sure? 'cause, sure, i guess i'm cute enough sometimes but man, i'm just.....i'm such a mess, dude. like on the inside, even more than i am irl with you all. i don't wanna drag you down, you know?

[piercetheheart]

Prom you're not gonna drag me down. We're all a fucking mess, we're friends with the crown prince, nothing's simple but I like you. A lot. And idk I think your mess and my mess might actually maybe make things a little less messy.

That sounded smoother in my head.

Fuck just lemme try? Ice cream's a start... Please?

[photoshooter]

..............

you treating? (#^^#)

[piercetheheart]

Obviously. Don't ask someone out if you're not planning on covering it, right?

[photoshooter]

is that a rule??? lmao if you say so. does that mean you have to pick me up too or should i just meet you there?

[piercetheheart]

What you don't wanna ride on the bike?

[Because of course he has a motorcycle. Obviously. C'mon Prom it's fine, it's just cuddling against his back while he drives, that's fine right?]

[photoshooter]

OF COURSE I WANT TO RIDE THE BIKE!!! COME PICK ME UP RN!!!!!!!!!!!
