[Nyx watches in silence as Ignis speaks. There's a part of him that regrets it the moment he sees how things change. It was too fresh, but Nyx had no way of knowing until Ignis had finished. In the end, he knows that it's a question that had to be asked. Talking about traumatic experiences never gets easy. Nyx knows that.
There's a reason he doesn't talk about Selena.
When Ignis starts to shake, literally shattering before his eyes, Nyx moves with deliberate steps that should be loud enough for Ignis to hear. He pulls his arm free, but only for a second, and just so he can place his hands carefully on Ignis' upper arm, ducking his head to look him in the eye. It was something he'd done once or twice when they'd been younger when it seemed like the teenager had taken on too much.]
Hey, hey deep breath okay? [He let's go of one shoulder taking Ignis' hand and pressing it against his chest so that he can feel when Nyx takes a deep breath.] Match mine alright.
[He falls quiet again, taking deliberately deep breaths until that wave of memory is pushed back. It's only then that he speaks again.]
I've got you.
[He's going to have to find this Prompto later because he has about a million questions.]
