[mercurio]

i'll make sure not to butcher your name
for your sake lol

let me know when you drop in
i know of the secret coffee blend stash the nurses are privy to
it's unlike anything us mere mortals have had before

[customcup]

you're better off just calling me gladio anyway. it's easy enough.

damn
i'll start heading over now then
how'd you get ahold of something that powerful?

[mercurio]

i'm just prompto the second p is silent
my mom didn't like me clearly

i'm friends with the nurses! i come around now and then to say hello
so it's nbd just a guy with a lot of power heheh

[customcup]

the second p is silent? that's rough buddy.

oh cool. good to know how powerful the guy i'm dealing with is.
you stay in this hospital too?

[mercurio]

imagine what being asked out to prom was like
nightmares even now

nah can't really afford the insurance i'm more of a small clinic kinda guy
do come around to check up on noct the times he's been here though

[customcup]

let me guess, everyone who made the obvious pun got rejected?
that must've broken a lotta hearts.

oh. you must've known him the last time this happened then.
he told me about that. glad it didn't happen again.

[mercurio]

something like that

yeah... so really lucky you were around
thus the gratitude attempt

[customcup]

yeah
guy who looks like you in the wasteland of hormones that is high school?
not that i've seen you in person yet.

hey, he's the one who called me there. even if he didn't know it was gonna be me.
all i did was catch the guy before he hit the ground.

[mercurio]

lmao giving me too much credit
you'll be sorely disappointed when you spot me

still!! geez gladio not one to take thanks v gracefully huh
oh maybe we can surprise noct like oh sup it's your two saviors from two different times
how great is the universe
lol

[customcup]

i'll leave that up to me.
somehow i don't trust your judgement.

i just feel like i did the bare minimum lol
somehow i doubt he's gonna see me as his savior. but i'm down for surprising him.

[mercurio]

don't say i didn't warn ya about disappointment

it's always nice to have one over noct
gotta keep him on his toes! no rest for the wicked!
soo... i'll wait for you at the hospital canteen??

[customcup]

we'll see.

sure thing. almost there.

[As promised, several minutes later Gladio makes it to the hospital and heads for the canteen. He looks around, remembering the profile picture Prompto had. Blond hair, freckles...

Soon enough, he spots someone who matches the picture and heads over to him.]

Well. Looks like you were wrong after all. I win.

[mercurio]

[prompto turns around at the voice. is met with a faceful of pecs, and turns to look up. woah, this gladiolus guy is tall and swole. damn. the smile that breaks on his face is pretty much just reactionary, and gladio may find himself wondering how prompto ended up with a bandaged nose and a black eye.]

[he raises a hand up in greeting, not really hearing nor connecting gladio's words to the whole 'looks' thing]

Hey, Gladio! Someone's eager for the super ultra coffee goodness.

[--snerk] You're a lot more swole than what I imagined.

[he speaks like this]
