From TFLN - Nyxto

[Moved from here]

[It's such a hard thing to listen to. Not because he believes Nyx is lying to him, but instead he's not sure he believes he's anything worth coming back to. He slowly kisses him back, hands moving to his shoulders.

So he doesn't respond, his insecurities taking over him. And instead moves back.]

So, uh... you can stay a while then?

[Trying to change the subject away from how scared he is.]

I know I don't have to. I want to. If it's something important, they'll call me. Until then it's just guard duty.

They don't need me to watch the road. I'm sure even the Guard are capable of a good day's work.

[It's a light tease, Nyx poking at Prompto's side in an attempt to get him to laugh. Joke back. Or, hell, even get mildly offended on behalf of the few Crownsguard he knew. Anything but this aching uncertainty that Nyx doesn't know how to chase away.

He can't stab dark thoughts.]

[It does get Prompto to smile at least. And look cheerier than he had. Like Nyx was just doing everything in his power to make him feel better. And he'd be lying if he didn't.

Even if it was at the expense of some Crownsguard.]

Hey, come on. They do good work...

[But he's smiling as he says it.]

Maybe if you put in good work, you wouldn't be on guard duty.

[Trying to tease his boyfriend right back. And get rid of those dark thoughts.]

[Nyx's lips quirk in false offense and he leans forward to nip at Prompto's cheek playfully.]

Hey now! I put in lots of good work. I even didn't actually stab myself with scissors today.

[He bends down a bit to hook his hands together beneath Prompto's ass and lift him off the ground, smirking victoriously at him.]

I lob fireballs and scrub the barracks floor of ash just as well as any of the rest of them!
