[ Luna recalls that very easily. She can relate; she'd had Ravus to begin with, and he'd been more of a protective older brother than a friend. Someone to annoy and harass as little sisters tend to do.
After everything happened, she was allowed to remain in a private school, but the other girls tended to avoid her and for good reason, not that she could ever blame them. She couldn't ever forge the same bonds that they did, and she'd just come to accept that as part of her role in the big scheme of things.
As an adult, she realized that much was true; even if she'd forged a bunch of friendships, it wouldn't matter in the end because she'd never have the time to see any of them or to do much with it. Not to mention everyone would end up disappointed simply because she was not meant to live past twenty four.
Which is why she will forever be grateful for the friendship that Noctis gave to her, is still giving to her. She smiles at him and gently squeezes his hand in return, because she knows that he can relate in a sense. Being royalty sounds like it's all fun and games, but it makes it extremely hard to pick out who is genuine and who isn't. ]
You are sweet, Noctis. Thank you. This place needs yours, too... more than ever.
Maybe it was supposed to be. Maybe he was supposed to have brought the dawn back to their own world. Be the brightest light of them all. But not here. Not now.
His footsteps falter and he turns to look at her, keeps his fingers tightly interwoven within his own. And he passes it to her then. The connection to the Armiger. Feels it move through their touch and into her. All she has to do is accept it.]
[ She'd argue that, tell him that he's wrong about that. That his really is the brightest light out of them all, whether it be here or at home. But she doesn't get the chance because not only is it not verbalized, but there's a strange, warm feeling flowing between them.
He's given her access to the Armiger, and she certainly wishes that she could pass her powers to him as well. But she will just have to settle for promising to be there for him now and always. ]
