[It only takes a second to settle Sparky back down in his lap and smooth down those cute, cute feathers. That leaves plenty of attention over for Noct. Noct, who's probably the worst liar in the universe, ever, and since that's a universe that includes Prompto, that's pretty bad.
Being friends with Insomnian nobility means Prompto's learned all sorts of different kinds of brooding. There's sort of the default goth, woe are we, the world weighs heavy on my shoulders kind of melancholy, but Noct is sitting and not leaning wistfully against a railing with the wind in his hair, so it can't be that, or not only that. It's not the grumpy emo kid pouting that shouts NO ONE UNDERSTANDS ME because he's out here, not in his room. No, he just looks small out here. He was holding Sparky like he needed something to hold, something warm and undemanding.
So it's something personal. Something interpersonal, maybe. He's sulking because he's hurt, and that's not okay, that's not the inevitable burden of kingship but something they have to fix right now.]
Come on, tell me. [Oh. Wait. He ducks a little further into his shoulders but doesn't turn away.] Is it what Ignis said? About Pryna?
