[while Prompto has nothing but fondness for the people he's come to see as his brothers, Dave's ... well.]

No. [hell no, even. it's complicated and unpleasant. somewhere out there in a different timeline, there's a Dave sitting at the top of an apartment building next to Dirk, hashing out those complicated things like they're meant to.]

He died like three years ago. And that's kind of a closed chapter, I guess. I wouldn't even know what to say to the guy if I had the chance.

[ He wouldn't have been surprised either way, people have valid reasons both for and against wishing their friends and loved ones here, but Dave's explanation that follows isn't quite what Prompto was expecting.

Not at all.

Oh.

He opens his mouth for an apology to stumble out, but he stops himself just before he speaks. Dave won't want to hear his apologies, and it's not like it matters, anyway. He doesn't speak hollow words, and how is saying something like "I'm sorry" to finding out his friend's brother died anything but that?

...But it still sucks. Loss in any form sucks. He doesn't know if Astoria would even have a power to...bring someone here who was no longer living, but it's...probably best that she doesn't, even if she could.

He worries at his bottom lip a moment, before finally speaking up again, his gaze flickering carefully to Dave, uncharacteristically serious and quiet. ]

Y'know, I....kinda know how you feel. Got a buddy who's here with me, he...heh. I didn't know if I would ever see him again, before we both showed up here. You bet I was glad as hell to see him, but...doesn't make it any easier.

[ Especially knowing what Noctis has to return home to, if he goes. ]
