It had been a long journey still down along the coast of the Cygillan Ocean before they reached Cape Caem, finally, with a few pitstops for Gladio to stretch his legs, cramped as they were in the back seat with the addition of Iris, and to better take in some of the views. Prompto hadn't stopped taking pictures of the journey so far, pretty much from the moment they set out, two weeks ago (had it really only been that long? How it had been so long already?), but there was something about the shot he managed to snag of that vast ocean and their destination spotted far up ahead along the cliffs that made him pause for a moment. And when they got back to the car, he transferred the picture from his camera to his phone and, even though he was pretty sure it was just going to disappear into the ether between them, he sent it off to Liz.
Almost there!!! he typed out the text. But I really wish I could just be with you.
( Pretty impressive lighthouse… )
Gladio grinned, just a bit, and gave a confident, cocksure roll of his shoulders. "Not long enough for you to miss me. Take care of Iris while I'm gone, alright? Make sure she doesn't get into too much trouble."
"I thought I was the trouble," Noctis countered, and Gladio, grunting in amusement, just set one his meaty hands on Noct's shoulder, squeezed it a little, and then flicked it against the back of his head before turning to go, heading down the way they came with his long, determined strides.
And Noctis forced himself not to linger there watching him, as he turned toward the house, the smells of Ignis' cooking and the cheerful banter between Talcott and Prompto as the kid told him about their adventures in coming here from Lestallum hitting him before he even made it back up the stairs.
