Scenting (Patreon)
Content
I had this idea jotted down: "Shackled character cuddling up to a person bringing their meal"
the moment of 'is this an attack?'
...it definitely isnt
im going for sliiight ABO
onesmolhurt
ooo scenting!!!
Kaciart
yesss
like maybeeee
Prom is the only one with those atributes
A product of the testing
And its like scent is stronger in certain parts
Him shoving his face in the armpits gets old really fast
Gladio is afraid of crushing his skull
From the kneejerk reaction of slamming your arm down
Minumi
awwehfkgh ' HE'S A PRISONER THO
what if
he's non-verbal
; A;
Kaciart
oohhh yesss
Maybe he just wasnt taught
Minumi
or ; A;
he was taught NOT to speak T AT
Kaciart
OMGGGG
ALSO
What if the words he HAD were all *awful*
Minumi
LIKE
WHAT
Kaciart
XD
Its like angst uno
Minumi
xDDD
DRAW FOUR ANGST
Kaciart
'ill see your selective mutism and raise you ENFORCED
But like uhhh
Isolation chamber??
All his words are punishments
so he can ask for them
alsoooo
Imagine him doing this with Niff guards
and getting smacked away
But its worth it for the bit of contact
Minumi
imagine him making little prrup sound T 0T
Draiad
and you know the touch he gets here is the first genuinely kind
even if its wary
Minumi
like a happy tick
how did they find him?
was it an accident
Kaciart
yeah im feeling like infiltrating a lab
They bring him for questions
Probably thought he was a prisoner in there in a sense
They freed him from a cell
But they still have to take care
Minumi
oohhh maybe they found him during one of his punishments in insolation?
Kaciart
So theyre going to question him
ohhhhh
Minumi
so he'd be extra touch starved and clingy
Kaciart
yessss
i keep imagining Gladio moving to step in when he sees Prom going under Iggys arms
And then hes just baffled
Ignis trying not to spill the food
ALSO
8D
What if all his feeding was by tube
Minumi
would he even know how to eat properly?
Kaciart
Thats what i was thinking
Like he'd be all 'this is nice 8D'
And let the food sit there
Minumi
probably trained that only "real" people eat
would be confused when they bring it but don't eat it themselves
Kaciart
When are you gonna shove the tube up my nose 8D
Minumi
like might even think he was being punished
since they didn't bring a tube for him to eat
Kaciart
ohhhhhh savage
What if he liked the smell of some more than others
Sweaty Gladio fresh from training makes him sneeze
Too MUCH
'Hes saying you smell Gladdy'
Ignis is always clean and probably uses cologne which Prom isnt that fond of
So he'd be like
*motorboats* this spot is good
Noct would be the fave
Lazy boy avoids working up a sweat
just warps away in training
Draiad
I can just picture him burrowing into one of their shirts while they're still in it
Kaciart
yessssssss
OMG
IMAGINE
One of them leaves a sweater behind
They took it off while there and forgot to pick it up
and the next day its in Proms bed
Minumi
curled around it, doing his little prrups T AT
Draiad
his now
never getting that back
onesmolhurt
until it smells just like him and then they can wear it again. to smell it up again
Kaciart
I imagine his room has a two way mirror
And he has an uncanny ability to know when someones watching
He'll just turn and look
Minumi
like those kids psychology rooms
adds a little to the creep factor
like imagine they see him as acting quite animalistic
but looking very human
Kaciart
Probably sniffs the air
Can tell who's coming
i imagine his senses are way better than the others
Minumi
ooh that made me think
if he realized it was Noct on the other side of the glass
rushing to it, and smushing against it excited
Kaciart
I saw exactly thattt
rubbing his cheek off it
Minumi
Noct conflicted
he's like a pet, but NO he's a human being ... but is he???
like feels WRONG to treat him like an animal
but at the same time, prom doesn't seem to know better
OMEGHHNGH
WHAT IF THEY HAVE TO NAME HIM???
Kaciart
I was thinking that
Like when they ask him his name
he shows the tatt
Minumi
i mean at the facility why would he have anything other than a number
Kaciart
oohhh
Imagine them going back to try and find files on Prompto
Looking for the number
Not the 3 but like
guards sent specifically to go through it
And they probably find all kinds of footage
Imagine if its early on
And they havent figured out why he wont eat
But once they get this information they realise, he's not doing it intentionally and theyve been starving him
And taunting him
Also the horrors that would be documented
I feel like it would be a bit like mowgli
Theyre also able to look far enough back ot see it was a human child that was experimented on
imagine Regis dropping by
Standing behind the glass and Proms like
'sniff sniff' Not Noctis but could be
I WONDER
Would age play a factor in how he reacts
The people who hurt him were almost exclusively older
Guards could be younger
But the main damage was done by older people
Minumi
i was gonna ask, was ardyn ever part of the picture
Draiad
oh god minu if he was and distantly noct and regis smelled like him
Kaciart
I imagine he was
Maybe not hands on but passing through
OMG Drai
But Ardyn wanted to be kept informed of progress
So maybe he never laid hands on Prompto so Prom would have a very odd view of him
Like he can smell his interest and enjoyment of whats happening
I also
Keep imagining Proms need for touch being taken advantage of by the guards
