FF15 Lost In a Memory (Patreon)

I imagine Regis walking quietly up to Noctis and Noct just says 'What is this?'

Maybe he and Regis are visiting Luna

And he was after wandering off from some boring meetings

Regis observes him for a moment

'You were the best of friends, the three of you'

Tells him that before the incident where the niffs attacked when he was visiting Luna

They had been abducted - him and Prompto

They found Noctis but were unable to locate Prompto and when Noct was questioned after he had no memory of the incident but more than that he had no memory of Prompto

There wasn't much they could do - he was physically healthy - he had just lost all memory fo his best friend but everyone else remembers Prompto

Luna - Ignis too

Just a vague recollection

Then later there was a mission to Gralea and Cor saw Prompto

And he probably broke protocol to grab him when they were supposed to be slipping in and out unnoticed

Stealing a whole child...lab specimen wasn't discreet

They were wary of Prom at first, he was so different to how he had been

He also had no memories of Noctis but his memories were fully gone

Not just tampered to lose one person liek in Nocts case

So they put him under the care of some operatives they had

Not the most ideal parents for him to have but they needed to know if he was hiding anything

'If he forgot everything is Prompto even his name?'

'It is....its just his full title'

Prompto Argentum Aldercept the second

Noct is thinking back to begging his father to allow him to bring Prom to events

But being shut down and very harshly punished one time he snuck Prompto in

They've gone to great lenghts to make sure Niflheim dont know hes there

Luna couldnt help herself with giving them a push

And Pryna was so happy to see him

I imagine over the days that theyre there Noct keeps coming back to the painting

Luna comes up to him one round

'I love that picture....we were so happy'

'Why didnt you say anything?'

'I knew it would resolve itself in time'

'We had a play wedding one time' she laughs

'Oh haha, did Prompto officiate our marriage?'

'Excuse me? *I* officiated YOURS'

Nocts eyes go wide before he cracks up

'I wish i could remember...'
