"Terrible flirt," is all Gladio gets in response to Ignis being his kind of 'trouble'.
And then Ignis falls silent, quietly taking in everything Gladio is willing to tell him. There's obviously a lot of context he's missing, but... Perhaps it simply isn't relevant right now. And Ignis supposes if it isn't relevant, then he doesn't need to necessarily hear even more when there's so much on his plate already.
He supposes.
Granted, that doesn't still make it a touch strange, to acknowledge that his boyfriend and his prince's best friend have hooked up. It just doesn't put him nearly on edge as hearing about Noct. "I see," he says, when all is said and done, finally pulling his hand away from the sink to wave it a little dry. "Then that makes some sense, I suppose - I met with him earlier," Ignis clarifies. "But he was acting so strange about me that I wondered if something unbelievable had happened like my breaking up with you to date him."
Gladio can take some pleasure in that phrasing, that Ignis found breaking up with Gladio so strange an idea as to be unbelievable, even this early in.
"This still doesn't quite answer the question, but it does eliminate a possibility." So he can work with that. In the meanwhile... With his hand somewhat air dried, Ignis lets out a breath before turning around to look up into Gladio's face. "So... Did you still plan on going back to your apartment for a quick thing you had to take care of...?"
