Ignis doesn't need to see Gladio's frown to guess it's there from his tone of voice. Without thinking about it, he raises his hand back to Gladio's face, finding much to his dismay he's right.

"Now, none of that," his voice is gentle, as his fingers pat the corner of the Shield's frown. "You shan't have to miss it any longer. We may have no idea how long this will last, but for now you need not even ask when you need this." Ignis lets his hand slide to the back of Gladio's neck and if allowed, will pull the other man forward so that their foreheads meet. "For now, put aside your worries, fears, and regrets. I'm here and I'm not going anywhere."
