yeah pretty much well i mean not the drug part unless it was by accident but it was kind of this thing they made you do i guess? sex i mean
and not only that uh ok this part is probably gonna sound super out there but there were people with marks on their throats called submissives and then the dominants who kinda contracted with them?
i was a sub when i got there you pretty much don't have any rights for doing anything unless you have a dom it sucked for a while but it wasn't so bad after i met ivy
[ She'd been so nice to him, the first girl he'd ever felt that big L word for that wasn't just some wishful thinking, but thinking about her makes him too sad. So, he tries not to. ]
anyway i ended up a dom somehow months later i know that's a lot but it is what it is you know? couldn't really change it
(This was lost on him. Some of this talk didn't make any sense at all and Noctis was lost with it. Although he did understand that it was difficult and someone named Ivy made it more bearable.)
I don't understand most of what you're saying. I want to though, Prompto.
Whatever it is, I want you to share it with me.
I was there. Did I protect you? Was I .. a good friend?
(He's relieved to hear that. It's weird to question himself, but he just needed confirmation that he was "himself" even in another world - which he didn't remember. If he ever left this world and went some place else, other than back home, he would want to leave still as "himself," not changed for the worse.
Now.. about those contracts..)
You mentioned doms and subs and contracts.. was it like money? Or bartering? What do you mean like you weren't able to do much when you first got there?
(Noctis tries to understand the dynamic between Prompto and his subs/doms experiences. He doesn't really know though, what it's like to be in either of those roles and what it is one's meant to do in those positions?)
He's your sub and your his dom, right? What if another dom comes like, someone you were a sub to? Is that a problem?
nah it's not like i dunno you hear those stories about weird bdsm stuff and you're like YIKES people could do that but i never did i mostly just used my dom powers for good haha like if anybody needed something or whatever
anyway we're not in duplicity anymore so... it kinda doesn't matter anyway?

no subject
i get it it's okay
i was there a while and still didn't get a lot of it
dude you were always a good friend
we spent literally almost every day together
i don't think i would've made it without you there
no subject

no subject
i dunno subs had it pretty rough
they couldn't buy anything or do much unless they had a dom
[ And he's already putting so much on him already, but... ]
i actually came here with a guy who was my sub there
his name's nero
no subject
(It's not like Noctis couldn't understand what he was reading, but.. hell that sudden drop in the pit of his gut made him feel awfully uncomfortable.)
someone came with you from Duplicity? How.. how did that happen?
no subject
i thought i was the only one
none of this stuff makes any sense
[ He doesn't know what to say to any of that, and for some reason, he feels like Noct is mad at him? Prompto chews on his lip for a while. ]
sorry
i know it's late and i probably sound crazy
we can just talk about it tomorrow?
no subject
Is it okay that Nero's here?
no subject
yeah um
we're kinda together?
if you know what i mean
no subject

but i never did

no subject
(No, he has no idea about bdsm stuff ... or powers related to subs or doms. Noctis feels a bit foolish.)
I bet you helped a lot of people, I know that much though.
no subject
i never really had any powers
yeah i tried
you...
you were a sub there but you were in a contract with iggy
so we could all kinda be together
no subject
Are you kidding, I could never handle the guns like you do. I'd say that's some real power!
I'm happy to hear we kept close there. Like we'd do here, right?
