On the 15nth - Stones of Farspeech

[want_to_belong]

[Around noonish, a simple message would come over the stones. There was no method for a group-chat or anything, so he just sent a general message.]

Hey, Gladio. Iggy. Where are you guys?

[And that was it. It would be silent for a while. He attempted to send a few individual messages, but as he got no response he became increasingly worried. Gladio might ignore something for a bit - after all, that was part of why Iris started to called Noct instead of Gladio. But Iggy wouldn't ignore him.

Trying not to sound alarmed because they were probably fine somewhere and just caught up in something, he spoke over the stones again after about an hour.]

Has anyone seen Gladio or Iggy?

[Prompto had been lucky. Due to concerns and chastising of others, he hadn't been doing that much that would get him in trouble. If anything, he'd spent the majority of the time near home, where plenty of people could have seen him if he got into trouble.

It had made it difficult for Noct to put him in much danger.]

What? Why would they do that? I mean, Iris is Gladio's sister, she would never let him get hurt. And Noct is Noct.

[crosslaced]

He's not angry at you for leaving him behind? Whiling your time away here?

[want_to_belong]

Noct? Noct's here. But, like, the normal Noct. Iggy said he's seeing a little kid.

[Which, Prompto knew what Noct looked like then, but he hadn't gotten involved with him until later.]

He's kind of upset we aren't doing more, but people have been worried about me going out so I thought it'd be easy to hang around for a bit.

[He exhales, impatiently. As much as he prefers his neighbours all alive, he doesn’t have time to hear all about the Chocobro situation this week.]

Where were they last seen? I’ll do a circuit around the areas you didn’t look.

[want_to_belong]

They were gardening over on Nuidan. That's all I really know...

[He hadn't been worried, because it was Iggy and Gladio together.]

we can wrap this up in the next round I think!

[crosslaced]

Where on Nuidan?

[Nuidan’s large enough that it would take days for him to search- unless he was lucky, there would be no point. Someone should tell him Ardyn’s already gone so he doesn’t intrude on that.]

Sure

[want_to_belong]

I think it was north near the coast somewhere... I don't know the exact spot.

Ardyn said he was going to look, too.

wrapping!

[crosslaced]

[Ah. Someone's already looking- he thinks about it and concludes that there's little he could do that Ardyn couldn't.]

Hm. I think he has it handled.

Put out another call if they're still missing?

Done

[want_to_belong]

I will.

[This was too important to worry about any tension.]
