[The last thing Ignis himself remembers is being knocked out, not so gently, by Ardyn. It is an immense relief to see Noctis well and not passed out from multiple injuries. There is comfort in falling back into exchanging smartass retorts with him.]

You may not, but you know what you're capable of. [Ignis shakes his head with a chuckle. He also knows what Noctis is capable of, even when others (or Noctis himself) question it.]

There were a lot of people by the lake, it was easy to lose track of anyone. [But he's very glad that he found him, despite the circumstances, and he returns the smile.] I'm happy to see you are not injured. [And in one piece.]
