Warnings: Possibly some panic attacks/flashbacks? Nothing graphic though


The figure out on the quad stood out from the snow in the all black ensemble, neither the colouring nor the short sleeves particularly suited to the weather, though his light hair and white feathery wings did a much better job. Anyone would be able to see just how confused he himself was to be there. Confused, and none too happy either.

Prompto had no idea how he got here. Or where ‘here’ even was. The chill and the dusting of snow definitely wasn’t a Longwythe feature, neither was the- was that an actual castle? He looked around, trying not to let panic creep in just yet. But a second assessment only proved that this was, in fact, not the rocky plains near Longwythe Peak. It appeared to be a well maintained yard. From what he could see under the snow at least. He was glad for it. The weather brought memories of a different tundra, but the architecture here was all wrong.

The bigger issue, he was realising, was that Noct and the others were nowhere to be seen. He looped his camera strap around his neck and pulled his wings close in an attempt to keep warm. “Noct? Iggy?” He spun around again, squinting against the glare of the sun off the snow. “Gladio?”

This wasn’t good. He reached for the familiar pocket of space of the Armiger, looking for his phone, but all his hand met with was empty air. Oh, really really not good.

“Okay. This is fine. Totally fine. I just need to not panic. Yup. I can do that. Not panicking.” He took a deep breath and turned towards the castle. Hopefully there he’d at least be able to get out of the cold, if not find someone who could tell him where on Eos he was. He fluffed his feathers, hugged his arms over his chest, and started walking.

"As I said if too many more people show up we may have to double up, but for the time being yes, this is all yours."

He took another look around the room. It definitely looked like a high school dorm, but that didn't negate that it was obviously a high school dorm for spoiled kids.

A wave of emotion swept over his chest. For... a lot of reasons. It still felt weird, accepting things like this, like the phone. Even after all these years, after all his time with Cor, his friendship with Noct. It still rang that little bell of truth in the corner of his head. He didn't really deserve all this. Not to mention it pulled up the image of Insomnia; smoking, ruined. He'd tried not to think of it, tried to focus on getting Noct to Altissia. He forced it again from his mind. Now wasn't the time to grieve.

Astrals, he needed that nap. He turned back to Aqua. "Thank you again. Should I ah... meet you somewhere? Tomorrow? For the winter cloths? Or are you just gonna bring them by here?"

[aquawayfinder]

"I don't want to disturb you while you are resting, so I'll leave them outside. And I will be exercising in the second gym before and after breakfast."

[kings_knight_rocks]

"Perfect." He tapped a finger on the pamphlet in his hand. "This thing wouldn't happen to have a map, would it?"

[aquawayfinder]

"There was a map on the table for everyone to use, but not one in the guide, I'm afraid. But if you put a post out on the network when you want to go somewhere, I am sure someone will be willing to come and show you around."

[kings_knight_rocks]

"Ah," He'd missed that, "No sweat, I'll figure out the phone situation. Or I'll wander around until I find what I need.I'm not worried."

Good place to wrap?

[aquawayfinder]

"Alright. See you after you have gotten some rest, my friend."

Re: Good place to wrap?

[kings_knight_rocks]

He nodded, smiling lightly. "Good night. Thanks again."

"Of course," she said with a warm smile. She crossed one fist over her chest, Keyblade apearing, as she gave him a deep bow.

yup yup

[kings_knight_rocks]

"Oh uh," He startled at the sudden appearance of her... Weapon? Giant key? Though he recovered quickly enough, used to things being called forth from the Armiger. The shape of the thing was a bigger curiosity. But one that could be solved another day. He quickly scrambled to reciprocate her bow as best he could considering he didn't know the customs that accompanied the action.

Thank you for the thread!

[aquawayfinder]

She gave him a smile. "Don't worry so much, you just have to be you to be wanted and welcomed," she said gently, before turning to head off so he could rest.
