"We can't really affect the bigger things going on in our own worlds right now; not while we're in Auradon. But one thing we can do is look out for each other. Now that we've cleared up the misunderstanding, let's try and get you back on an even keel before we do anything else. Because I know that kind of flat voice, and I'm not about to leave a friend of mine in that state." Just because Prompto wasn't spazzing out all over the place didn't mean he wasn't still panicking; they needed to pull him out of that.
But how to do that? Most of the grounding techniques he knew assumed a more... traditional sort of panic. Maybe something a bit more unconventional? "Ever since I first got my powers, my thing's been fire. Warmth is my element, literally. So... list off some things to me that make you feel warm. Big, small, literal, metaphorical, doesn't matter, and we'll go from there."
