I've been thinking about hosting a holiday party? We celebrated Yuletide back home, and I know Caroline mentioned something about Christmas. Seems like a good time to get people together. It'd be cool to raise money for a charity, too, if people wanna donate.

Problem is I don't know the first thing about organizing something like this, so uh. Help? Lol

GLADIO & PROMPTO:

Hey. Nyx just showed up. I hope it's okay that I invited him to stay with us for a little while? It's [...] important to me, because I found out back on Earth that we're related. Not the craziest thing to happen though, I guess.

There's a loft space he can use, but I figured I'd run this by you guys before you both head out together. It'd mean a lot to me if I could reintroduce everyone. I want him to feel welcome without, you know, feeling pressured to do the brother thing.

I have something for you both, too. It’s small. ~~Will you be back in time for -~~ ~~No, don't seem clingy~~ ~~Play it cool~~

	You got a point. 🤔 Trust me, I know. Still feels wrong to do it on my end. But [...] it makes me really happy when you open up. I feel like, I dunno, I'm holding something really precious? It's hard to describe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Screencapping that. The rare moment you actually agreed with me. Wow, that's really cheesy, Noct. 😛 I get what you mean though - it's the same for me with you. Especially because I do know how hard it is. How much it was ingrained in you to not open up or say what you really feel. Makes me really glad to know you trust me enough to do so.

	Yeah, well. Don't get used to it. 😐 Didn't you start this? 'Course I trust you. It's just [...] hard. Do you ever think about how much our dads talked? Maybe you saw them do that more than I did. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Wouldn't dream of it.

Doesn't mean I can't still give you a hard time.

I don't think they let anyone see them do it. I know they did though? Or at least I always figured they did. Some of the stuff my dad would say to me - about what it meant to be a shield, about carrying more than just a sword - I dunno, always kind of made me feel like they must have. I have these sort of vague memories of when your mom died and my dad just - went away for what must have been a good few weeks, and I knew he was with yours. When the attack happened, when you came back from Tenebrae, it was much the same.

	It'd be weird if you didn't. You know, all I'm hearing is your dad did all the work. ~~Typical for our family~~ ~~Sucking everyone dry and leaving good people behind because there was some stupid bigger picture to think about~~ ~~Unreal~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At least it gives you a good barometer. I can't be too far gone if I'm still giving you shit. I don't think that was the case. They were friends, Noct. They had each other's backs. It was pretty much just them, and Cor. And unfortunately I don't think we'll ever really know what they did or said or didn't do when no one else was looking. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gladio, you're never too far gone. I don't care how bad things get, I'll always want to stick by you. Got that? ~~Friends can still do wrong by their fr~~ Yeah. I guess. Thanks, though. I know it's not easy for you to talk about your dad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~You shouldn't have to though - it's my job to keep my shit together for you -~~ Yeah, I got it. Same goes to you. It's not, but I dunno, kind of feels nice to do it every now and then anyways. (Reply to this) (Parent)
