Noctis Caelum shared a photo.

10/8 near Recolle

Woo. First post.

Anyway, so, it's this guy's birthday on 10/25.

I've been working on a party behind his back, so please keep this between us. Prompto's completely filtered out, so he can't see this. This post's an invitation to all of his friends, and if anyone has any suggestions or requests, I'm down for taking them. It'll be behind the Arcade from 7pm-2am, and I got both the lot and the arcade rented out. Drinks and food will be provided, and I've got a pretty massive few sets of inflatable obstacle courses and trampolines coming in.

Costumes are encouraged, but wear something comfortable.

Feel free to dm me for questions and all that.

Noah Robin Campbell yeah
Noah Robin Campbell family stuff.

[Doesn't even have any family in town but Noct probably don't know that.......]

[ Heeeeee does not. But you do seem awfully short these days, Noah. ]

Noctis Caelum That's too bad. I'm sure he would have been happy to see you.
Noctis Caelum I totally get it though.
Noctis Caelum Everything ok?

Noah Robin Campbell cant even blame you.

Noctis Caelum You know, if you can make the time for it, the party might help clear your head.
Noctis Caelum Up to you.

Noah Robin Campbell i dunno.
Noah Robin Campbell im pretty busy.
Noah Robin Campbell and i kinda suck at parties even if i could go.
Noah Robin Campbell usually just sit in the corner.

Noctis Caelum Who do you think you're talking to?
Noctis Caelum I suck at parties, big time.
Noctis Caelum Not much for crowds either, but it's for Prompto, so...

Edited 2017-10-08 19:29 (UTC)

Noah Robin Campbell im sure hell like it.

Noctis Caelum Can only hope so.
Noctis Caelum Anyway, if you need anything
Noctis Caelum You know where to reach me.

Noah Robin Campbell yeah
Noah Robin Campbell i know.

[There's a pause, and then because he really doesn't want Noct to think he's mad at him]

Noah Robin Campbell hey you wanna go fishing sometime?
Noah Robin Campbell before winter comes

[ Oh. That's a relief... Guess that rules out Noah being upset with him or something. (Yes, he totally thought that for a second). ]

Noctis Caelum Oh. Yeah, I'm always down for that.
Noctis Caelum Any day in particular you've got in mind?

Noah Robin Campbell how about this weekend?
Noah Robin Campbell i have sunday off
Noah Robin Campbell i got fight club but thats not until evening

bullshit

not that i care if you don't want to go but why lie about it

[Fuck, he says outloud to his screen. the one person he can't BS about his family with.]

cause i like noctis and sometimes lying is the nice thing to do??
he didnt do anything!

Edited 2017-10-08 19:20 (UTC)

okay

so what'd prompto do

doubt youd care.

try me

[There's a pause]

its stupid.
he was always nice to me.
treated me like a little brother.
or like how i think people treat their little brothers.
i dont really fucking know.
but i bought into it.

but then he finds his half-brother
and now its like well fuck me
thats the only brother that matters now
because hes real.
so fuck that
i dont wanna be around the guy.

i was stupid.
i shouldve known better.

[...it's funny, really, that the two of them had the same fear, even if it's only coming out now. Dante frowns at his phone, but he's not going to say anything at the moment.]

not that stupid actually

prompto and i became blood brothers a few months ago but once his bro showed up it felt like that didn't matter because he had a real one all of a sudden

turns out he's just a dumbass who doesn't know how to manage his time

not that that gets him a free pass, he's still a dumbass

but you're not stupid

[There's a pause. He honestly didn't expect this kind of response. He knew Dante and Prompto were close, but not blood brothers.

It was...nice, to have someone understand]

thanks.
didnt know about you and prompto.

i tried explaining
i mean, i wasnt willing to hold his hand in explaining but
he didnt get it.

im not even mad at cloud.
he didnt do anything.

only a couple people do, it's not as though there's any reason to go around sharing it with everyone

yeah, i get it. cloud doesn't know what's going on, it's not his fault. but prompto misses the stuff in front of his face sometimes too

[Subtleties are sometimes lost on him. Which isn't always a bad thing, but... it can make things tough sometimes. It's still something Dante's learning to deal with himself.]

right. be weird if you did. [maybe even gay enough for noctis to get jealous- i mean]

yeah well, i dont wanna spell it out for him
he already knows about my past.
but if i say up front "im upset cause i feel like im being abandoned again"
most people would say nice shit just cause they feel bad.
but its not real. theyre gone the moment their guilty conscience eases up.
i hate that.

[It's a reason he acted so much like a feral animal, so rough around the edges. People want to make charity cases out of the sweet orphan Annie, not the one with rabies]

i get it

you don't wanna remind people of that, you shouldn't have to

well don't worry noah, i'll always be here to try and chop your arm off, no matter how much you'd rather i went and disappeared again

[Yeah, guess who read back on the network and found out that Noah was the one who'd noticed he was gone.

You're never living that one down, Noah.]

[eff you Abi this tag made me tear up.

And yep, back to good old Dante. Though Noah is actually touched by the sentiment.]

yeah, i know.
dunno why the fuck you stick around but least i know its not a guilty conscience.

not asking either why.
bet youd just make some shit up if i did.
so whatever.
