"Nyx..."Lunafreya's murderer is here. A strange sickening feeling rises in his chest as he sees the most hurt look he's ever seen on Nyx's face before. It's enough to put a crack in his heart and without saying a word Squall reaches out and holds him tightly, rubbing his back and whispering sweet words to him. For a moment he forgets about Noctis until the man is speaking and he looks up to wildly glowing purple eyes.
"I'll help, I won't let Nyx go after him in this state. He's going to make mistakes this angry and upset and I take it you might as well." He let's go of his tight hold on Nyx before looking at him once more and kissing him sweetly on the lips. "Let's all take a breather and go together. I understand the need to hurt this man but no amount of anger is going to solve anything right now." He takes a step back and Griever comes out of his necklace once more, standing behind him imposingly. "At lease let me help bring you two there. Save some energy?"
Squall is right to hesitate, to remind him of what is at stake by rushing off into this the way they are. The combination of Noctis' words and Squall's soothing presence at his side quiet the rage, not lessening it but focusing it. Nyx's arm comes around Squall, tight around his waist and holding him near. He answers that sweet kiss almost absently, in no place to be soft with his lover but unable to deny him.
"We can't take him down." Low and resigned, his free hand coming up to rest on Noctis' shoulder. "Death means nothing here. We can hurt him but if we just kill him outright the Peacekeeper will revive him in the infirmary before the day is done."
He glances to Squall, confused by the offer for a split second before his gaze moves to Griever. "The benefits of a giant fuckin dtf." A snort, amused, something more him than any of the fury over the last few moments. Nyx slips away from Squall to nod at Griever, blade getting sheathed and reaching out to offer himself however the lion man thinks it would be best to carry him. "But just because we can't kill him doesn't mean we can't make sure he knows damn well that if he tries any of his shit here we will find a way to ruin his life."
