Ignis was not one to rush after what he wants. When he sees something he desires, Ignis takes the time to plan its acquisition in delightful detail. It doesn't matter what it is he desires; whether it is a book, a recipe or even someone who had caught his eye.
The blond boy he saw running outside his favorite coffee shop was one such desire. It was the way the boy would stop to take pictures of whatever caught his gaze. It was the happy smile he greeted all those in his path as he ran. It was the innocent kindness that he showed to any and all. All those little things made him glow in Ignis' eyes.
Ignis was well aware of how little he actually knew about the running sun but that did little to deter him. He was the Prince's Adviser and had been training to read and learn of a person at a glance. He could find out more about an unknown citizen with ease.
Or so he thought. It had been over two months since his first sighting of the blond and yet Ignis knew nothing more than what his casual observation had given him. He didn't know where the young man came from, where he returned or even how old he was.
Ignis frowned as he grabbed his coffee and watched his personal sunshine show up around the corner as usually. When someone else, someone who should not be there, stepped up with a wave to stop the blond in his track, Ignis swore and hurried out of the shop.
"Noctis!" Ignis growled as he walked up to stand behind the wayward prince who was supposed to be having a morning training with Gladiolus.
Noct jumped in fright at Ignis' admonishing, and turned to smile awkwardly at Ignis. "Hey Specs… I didn't expect you here…" He glanced over to the blond runner who had haunted Ignis' thoughts for so long and gestured towards the young man, "Umm… so this is Prompto?"
