I dare say that I can make this at camp.
*Strikes troughs are things he won't be able to respond to, he's canonically blind! Will update if things happen in-game.
*Braille unlocked on his phone, Tony Stark unlocked it for him IC-ly. Ignis may be a bit slow at first at responding, but once he picks it up better he'll respond quicker. Ignis can text people now!

I... [ he inhales a sharp breath himself. ]
Do you know anything about Noct's fate?

He'd come in here to befriend Ignis and he still wanted to- he still loved him. However, he loved Gladio too and really, how dare they make their friend hate himself!]
Look, I know he hurt you and upset Noct and Prompto, but what you all have to understand is that's war. Do you have any idea how much someone has to love you to be willing to break your heart but save your life? That's how much he cared. That's how much he had your backs.
[Tony knew. Tony knew what it was like to hold on to justice and stand up to the people he loved the most, even losing them because they were wrong.
He took a steadying breath.]
Yeah, I do. And we both know which one of you idiots marches him to that damn throne even when his heart is breaking.
[He got up again.]
That's a loyal friend, not the other way around. I'll see you later Ignis. I need some air.

[ Ignis is up on his feet, moving after Tony. ]
I get it, I bloody know why he said what he did. It hurts, cause I understand where he's coming from. After Altissia, we fell apart. Noct was grieving; he had just lost Lady Lunafreya, I became a shell of myself and Prom was trying to keep the peace. [ Poor Prompto had tried so hard to keep the little family together, but with the way things were... ]
Tensions were high between all of us.
[ It wasn't until Ignis said something about it all that they managed to pull themselves back together. ]
We call ourselves brothers, family and yet, we were falling apart.
[ If Tony only knows bits and pieces, then he can't blame him for feeling the way how he does. Altissia and everything after it had been a nightmare from start to finish. And it's not over, it's far from over if anything from the vision he'd gotten suggests otherwise. Noct had looked much older during... his death.
He pushes that thought aside. ]
Yet, in spite of my blindness and the bickering between us, I stayed with all of them. If you know me, then you know how stubborn I can be.
[ Even with Eos being in danger like that, he refused to budge. Only if he slowed them down. ]
As for Gladio, I know very well that he's not here. We both agree that train Ignis and that Gladio are not here. In spite of that, we talked, we're hurting cause of what our other selves did, but we're talking things out. We're healing.
He's Noct's Shield for a reason. He has to roar as you put it, but that's why he frightened us. He's never been.... that aggressive, it's not in his nature to be.
[ He sighs, hard. Gladio had been so angry that it scared the major hell out of Ignis. ]

[He sighed, trying to let go of some of the anger, but it was difficult.]
I'm sorry he scared you all and I'm sorry he hurt you. What you all were going through no one should have to go through that. The fates and gods of your world are pure evil and it's not fair.
But what I'm saying is the 'train' Ignis and you aren't so different and 'that' Gladio and the one here in this town aren't either. I don't have to be standing and witnessing the exact scene to know you all fucked up. That's your brother and all three of you doubt him when he needs you to believe in him. What kind of heartless sociopath do you and your precious Noct take him for to be okay with a blind man who doesn't know how to fight without his sight yet go into the battlefield? Fates are cruel and what happened to you is wrong, but that's not his fault. You're blaming the wrong person. If you were men, you would get your heads out of your asses and go apologize to that man who never has and never will be anything but true.
Is there anything else you need to say or may I leave before I scare any more cats?
/wraps this up, sorry Tony
Date: 2021-02-17 22:16 (UTC)From:[ Ignis is mentally tired, not just from this, but from the past month or so. Noct almost died, Prom got sick and not worse if he hadn't found him, so many hard talks lately. His shoulders sag, like he's about to drop. ]
I'm done here.
[ He inhales a sharp breath as he gathers his things up to leave the cafe, poking open his umbrella in the process and leaving Tony behind. ]
Re: /wraps this up, sorry Tony
Date: 2021-02-17 22:28 (UTC)From:Whatever. He waited and let Ignis get a comfortable distance from the cafe before stepping outside. The metallic armor sprang to live, covering his body and he launched into the air. If only he had something to shoot for a few hours...]
