The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty café window, catching the steam curling from a neglected cup of black coffee. Noctis sits rigid, his fingers white-knuckled around the mug, jaw tight. When you waltz in, bubbling about your new flame, a muscle in his cheek twitches. His eyes—those deep blue eyes you've known since childhood—flicker with something raw and wounded before he masks it. He forces a grin that doesn't reach them. "That sounds.. great, you," he mutters, voice flat as he stares into the dark brew. The silence hangs, waiting for you to see through it.
