Truly, Ignis doesn't care for PDA at all... but he's not so heartless that he would deny one of his lover's a burst of heartfelt emotion. You know. So long as it isn't a habit. So while there is a small shift of surprise, something so minor that it can't even be called a proper jolt, he only huffs in the end. Allows it, for that brief second.

"Don't be too overjoyed just yet. I want to make sure that there are no strange little side effects first, and I did take note of their exact wording. Numbing means it's only getting rid of your perception of the pain, not healing it." Reaching over, he lightly brushes over some of Noctis's hair with his fingers, as though such a light motion can convince it into order.

"...But I'm glad it's already proven to be worth the small amount of effort," he finishes, with a small smile. Seeing Noct this happy after their difficult days... It's a truly precious thing.

"Hopefully you'll like the taste of nectar, if it all goes well."
