[He does like spoiling her, but he might like it less if he had to share credit for it. He's a needy fella, the reassurance that he's doing well means a lot to him. He winds his arm around her again, tugging her close.]
Okay, okay. If another one shows up I'm gonna tell him to buzz off, I won't share.
[ Now pressed more closely to him, she snuggles against him to fit as perfectly as they usually do together. ]
Good, because... if another Pyra or Mythra shows up. I'll have to tell them the same.
[ Although, as anyone might imagine in such a scenario, she would be hella polite about it. Still, it's true. She wants to be the only one who gets to kiss this Noctis this way.
After a moment, her tone softens, her voice turning more sincere. She whispers to him, as if making a promise: ]
[He hums softly, the sound agreeable and thoughtful at the same time. He's tried to be mindful of wording like that, recognizing certain implications- her being what she is, who she is, and how people have sought to possess her before, he'd wondered if it was weird to think that way. It's not as if he thinks of her as a possession, far from it. She's not something to own.
Still, there's... a certain thrill to hear it, and he can understand why people like the turn of phrase. I'm yours. The thought of belonging, of her being connected to him and him alone this way, just as he is to her. He likes that. Loves it, actually. And so-]
I'm yours, [he echoes quietly, resting his head against hers. Just as much a promise to her, calm and content in the truth of it.]
[ And like this, she's content to drift into sleep alongside him, wondering not about the future or other versions of him that there might be, but of the present and the only Noctis she's known and grown to love. She's his. He's hers. Not as objects to each other, but belonging, a sense of home, comfort, safety, and care, all of which she also wishes to protect within the time they have together. ]
