Prompto gives Noctis a good squeeze before letting him go, mostly because it sounded like he had some important stuff to say. Not much could compete with the sheer relief of seeing his friend again, especially after all the anxiety of knowing he was gone and having no clue what to do about it. 'How to deal with the King getting sucked into the Crystal' hadn't been covered in the Crownsguard first-aid class.

"You spoke to Bahamut, too?! Talk about the VIP treatment! So, uh... did he mention that you might end up in a sunny destination full of weird animals? That seems like a pretty big detail to leave out."

It's not that Prompto isn't sympathetic to the people here, but they had some huge problems to deal with back home. The idea that the pause button has been hit on the entire universe is hard to wrap his head around.
