☆ the rough days feel a little better with you
ignis scientia x ftm reader [he / him]
sypnosis: [name] has been going through dysphoria, he doesn't like the way he looks - he doesn't feel 'man enough.' luckily, ignis is there to save the day. (can be viewed as romantic or platonic)
the lowercase is intentional !

the dysphoria was hard today. it was getting to a point where it was too much to cope with. you felt a pain surging throughout your whole body.
you didn't feel like a real man. you felt like you were a little girl playing dress up. you felt as if you were pretending, that you were doing this to fit in. that's what your dysphoria was telling you. it was making you feel like shit.
you couldn't get out of bed. all you could do was stay curled up in a ball, whilst you cried on the bed. you wished someone could come help you. that someone would come comfort you and reassure you. that someone would make all of your worries wash away.
suddenly, you were pulled out by your thoughts due to your phone ringing. it was ignis calling. a small smile crept on your face as you quickly wiped away your tears.
"hello?" you answered, your voice a little croaky from crying. "[name], i'm glad you picked up." ignis spoke. on the other side of the line, ignis heard how your voice sounded. he already assumed the worse, that you were having a bad day.
"are you alright?" he asked, his voice already soothing your worries and easing your pain. "no.. can you please come over?" you started to tear up and sniffle again. you couldn't bear this pain any longer. ignis nodded to himself, even if you wouldn't be able to see it. "of course, i'll be right over." ignis responded, feeling pained once he heard your sniffles. he wanted to make sure you were alright.
ignis rushed over to your place. he unlocked the door with the key you provided him many months ago. he heard your crying so he cautiously made his way up to your room.
ignis' face dropped immediately once he saw your state. dishevelled hair, bloodshot and teary eyes. he walked over and kneeled by your side, taking one of your hands in his gently stroking it. "it's alright, [name]. i'm here now." ignis spoke softly. "what's a handsome man like you doing so upset?" he knew what was wrong, but he wanted to reassure you by calling you a man - your true identity.
you didn't reply to him, you continued sniffling and crying as he stroked your hand. "you're a really handsome man, i hope you know that [name]. i think you're best looking man i've ever seen." ignis smiled slightly, even if there was sadness in his eyes. he hated seeing you like this. he wanted to be the one to make sure you were alright.
your eyes glimmer as you hear his words, you tilt your head at him smile slightly. "ignis.." you whisper out, not knowing how to finish your sentence. he hushed you, not wanting you to pain yourself any further. "what if i cook you something to eat?" he hummed with a smile. ignis' speciality was cooking, and he knew you loved his cooking. he knew it made you feel better.
your eyes go wide once you hear the words he utters. you immediately nod. "yes.. yes please.." you speak with a hoarse voice. ignis smiles and ruffles your hair. "of course, i'll make my favourite man his favourite dish." you pull him in closer and breathe in his scent. "thank you, iggy.." you whisper.
even though ignis didn't say much, you still felt better. his reassurances of your identity, him holding your hand, him offering to cook you food and even just ignis in general made you feel better. you were glad he was there.
he lead you to the kitchen and started to cook you some food with the ingredients you had available. you still felt a little dysphoric, but ignis helped. even if it was a little bit.
soon enough, your place was flooded with the scent of ignis' cooking. it smelt so good, like always. you started to smile a little more. you were so happy you had someone like ignis in your life.
ignis then plated the food for you, snapping you out of your trance. "enjoy. i hope it's to your liking." he hummed, taking a seat next to you. you immediately start eating, engulfing the food in no time.
you looked at ignis, feeling better from the food he cooked. "thank you, iggy. the rough days always feel a little better with you.." you whisper.

☆ stress, insults and tears.

"i hate you!" [name] yelled out, tears streaming down his face as he looked at ignis. "leave me alone!" he said before running off to the bedroom and slamming the door.
ignis sighed as he saw [name] storm off. he knew that [name] was going through a stressful time due to the work that has piled up on him recently, and he wanted to help. yet, [name] was closing himself off and being frustrated with everyone and everything. ignis had only asked [name] if everything was okay, but [name] just stormed off. he knew [name] didn't mean what he said, he just wanted to help.
ignis didn't yell, shout or insult [name]. he understood what [name] was going through. but of course, ignis still wanted to help. he had seen [name] go through stress periods multiple times throughout their relationship, and he was willing to do whatever he could to help. ignis wanted [name] to know that he wasn't alone, that ignis was there to help. so, whatever it would take to get [name] to know that, he'd do it.
of course, ignis did what he knew best. cook.
the brunette made his way to the kitchen to start making something. he decided something sweet would do the trick and save [name] from some tears. ignis was going to make some chiffon cake. it was warm, light and fluffy - bound to be something that both ignis and [name] enjoy.
ignis mixed some eggs, flour, sugar, oil and cream into a bowl to get the cake mixture. it already started to look and taste good. ignis really hoped that [name] would enjoy eating it as much as he's enjoying making it.
ignis placed the batter into a special mold before placing it in the oven, waiting patiently for it to cook. the aroma wafting from the oven was making him drool, he was so excited for how the cake was going to turn out.
meanwhile, [name] was still in his and ignis' room. he was sobbing to himself, breaking down after all of the stress that had been piled up on him. he didn't even realise the smell of the cake ignis was making. but, once he'd get a taste, his mood would definitely be lifted.
after around an hour, ignis pulled the cake out of the oven. he carefully took it out of the mold before cutting a piece for himself and [name]. he then placed the plates on a tray with some coffee and tea before making his way to the bedroom.
ignis knocked on the door gently. "[name], can you please let me in?" he asked, his voice nice and gentle to not alarm his boyfriend.
[name] immediately perked up as he heard ignis' voice. his sobbing subsided for a moment as he let out a quiet sniffle, wiping his face with his sleeve. he then gets up off of the bed to open the door.
ignis is there outside of the door holding a tray with two plates of chiffon cake, a selection of teas and coffees alongside some cups. [name] stands there in shock, he wasn't expecting this. he thought ignis was going to be mad at him for yelling and saying such insulting things.
"i made this for us, we can eat inside the bedroom.. i'll clean up later. i just want to make sure you're comfortable." ignis says in a gentle and soothing voice. it's evident that he really cares for [name], and [name] appreciates that so much. he starts to tear up again as he nods in response to ignis' suggestion.
the couple then walk into the bedroom and they sit down on the bed comfortably placed in the middle of the room. ignis hands [name] a plate with the cake on it before preparing [name]'s favourite drink.
[name] sniffles a bit before blinking to try and make the tears go away. he takes a bite of the cake and he immediately melts. it's nice and warm and fluffy.. it felt like he was eating heaven. whatever ignis cooked tasted like heaven, really.
"ignis.." [name] started after he finished his bite. "why.. why did you do all of this?" he asked, thinking that ignis hated him for what he said earlier. "i was so rude and you still went out of your way to bring me cake and a warm drink.. i don't get it.." [name] whispered, a small frown forming on his face.
ignis listened as [name] spoke, nodding along. "i did it because i care. i know that you get stressed sometimes because of work and just life in general, so i wanted to do something to make you feel better." ignis replied, placing a hand on [name]'s thigh whilst caressing it gently. "i should've not pushed you so far to answer.. i just wanted to know why you were so stressed out. i'll keep it in mind next time to not bug you so much, i understand it's annoying." the brunette chuckled slightly, hoping to lighten up the mood.
[name] just frowned even more, if that was even possible. "don't.. don't you want to leave me? i get angry over nothing and say horrible things to you but you still act so politely. i don't understand." [name] sighed, a few tears welling in the corners of his eyes. "and this isn't the first time this has happened! why are you still with me?"
ignis just leaned forward and placed a kiss on [name]'s forehead, trying to soothe him. "i'm not leaving you because i know you don't mean the things you say." ignis begins, still gently caressing [name]'s thigh. "plus, i love you too much to leave you. whether your stress makes you angry or sad, i love you either way. it also means that i get to help you overcome your struggles." ignis hums, kissing [name]'s cheek this time.
"i.. i still don't understand but i love you too.." [name] replies, feeling somewhat weak now and in too much of a vulnerable state. "i don't want you to leave me.. but i'm scared that you will one day because you'll realise how much of a freak i am." [name] mumbled, taking another bite of his chiffon cake.
ignis pulled [name] in closer, not caring about the tray on the bed or the liquids that could potentially spill. "[name], you are not a freak. this is normal, i want to help you. you're not alone." ignis whispered, kissing [name]'s forehead. "i'll never leave you, your flaws make you, you. and i love all of you." ignis gives [name] a light kiss on the lips, wanting to let his boyfriend know how much he cared for him. "i could never leave you."
[name] slowly nodded, a few tears running down his cheek as he continued to eat the cake. he didn't want to respond to ignis verbally in that moment, so he just nodded. he felt so warmed knowing that ignis actually cared. ignis' kind words were exactly what [name] needed.
"promise me you'll actually talk to me and tell me what's wrong?" ignis said, stroking [name]'s head to be as close and as intimate with him as possible in that moment. "i don't want you to think you're alone, because you're not." ignis continued, pressing more kisses all over his boyfriend's face.
[name] nods again, looking at ignis with a small smile now. "i promise.. i'm sorry that i close myself off so much, it's just.. hard." [name] whispered, sighing as he finished talking.
"it's okay, i know what you mean." the brunette replied, speaking softly and gently throughout. he cared about [name] a lot, and it pained him when he saw his boyfriend hurting.
the two men then spent the rest of their day eating cake, drinking some tea or coffee, laughing and kissing. it was fun, and [name] finally felt stress free.

- slight episode ignis spoilers and mentions of fighting & injuries.

fighting, bloodshed and chaos. those words accurately described what had happened at altissia a few days ago. a day that many, such as [name], had never experienced before in their lives.
yet, everything seemed like it just happened in a flash. [name] barely remembered what happened, it was almost as if he was not present during the event. unfortunately, he was. he absent mindedly witnessed such tragedy.
it had been a few days since the group had been truly together. the group consisting of gladio, ignis, noctis, prompto and [name] had been all seperated after the fight, but they luckily all found eachother in the end. even if that meant that half of them were gravely injured.
noctis had gotten gravely injured, and so had ignis. nobody had spoken to noctis yet as he was still knocked out, and similarly so for ignis.
ignis had used the powers contained within the ring of lucii to try and defeat ardyn. however, he didn't know the consequences it would bring. he had scarred the left side of his face and he had gone blind. it was horrible, something nobody imaged would happen to a person like ignis. yet, ignis risked everything just to make sure his friends were safe.
[name] was anxiously sitting outside of the room where ignis was resting. the man hadn't seen how ignis looked like yet, he was just waiting outside whilst biting his nails out of nervousness.
[name] was scared, and saying he was scared was truly an understatement. he was terrified, really. he doesn't know what has happened to the man he cares about the most, the man he loves the most. it was unbearable just sitting there waiting on the floor. too unbearable.
a few footsteps caught the attention of [name]'s ears and a door opening. then, someone cleared their throat to alert [name] and it was none other than gladio.
"you can go see him now, he's awake." gladio said, his voice hoarse. it was different to how he usually sounded, [name] noted. this was definitely taking a toll on gladio, and everyone for that matter. everything that had happened those few days ago was affecting everyone.
[name] immediately stood up and nodded at gladio before rushing into the room. he couldn't wait a second longer to see ignis, or what had happened to ignis. [name] knew he had to brace himself for what he was about to see, because it could be rather unsettling. luckily for him, it wasn't.
[name] walked into the room and his eyes immediately scanned the room. every wall, every corner and every surface was looked at before [name]'s eyes finally met ignis' face.
"ignis.." [name] whispered out loud, taking a few, small steps forward towards the man he had just mentioned. [name] then finally got to the bed ignis was laying on and he crouched down besides it.
"hey." [name] continued to whisper. "are you alright? are you feeling any pain?" [name] asked, gently stroking one of ignis' palms. he was being as careful and as gentle as he could possibly be to not injure him any more than he already was.
ignis groaned a little before he sat up on the bed, rubbing his eyes and staring into practically nowhere. "i'm alright, just a little sore." ignis sighed, trying to make his injuries seem better than they actually were. in reality, they were worse. that fight with ardyn, using the ring, it hurt like hell. it didn't help that ignis could no longer see anything, not even [name], anymore.
"that's good." [name] hummed, his voice gentle, just like his touch. he tried to be as soothing as he could be, if that was even possible. he wanted to make sure ignis was okay, but it didn't seem like that was really the case.
ignis sighed again and he closed his eyes. it wasn't as if it made a difference anyway, his vision had gone and his whole world was shrouded in darkness - just like eos' fate.
"actually, i'm not alright." ignis admitted. his voice was unusually quiet, and shaky. [name] was starting to get worried - this wasn't the ignis he knew.
"i can't see, [name]." ignis confessed, his voice growing more and more shaky as he continued to speak. it was as if he was on the verge of tears, getting ready to cry at any given moment.
[name] looked at ignis a little confused. "of course you can't see.. your eyes are closed, ignis." [name] replied, trying not to laugh at his comment.
"no, [name]." ignis sighed again, a small frown on his face. he then opened his eyes and tilted his head towards [name]. "i can't see, [name]. i've gone blind." ignis admitted.
[name] was now in a state of panic and confusion. he didn't understand. how did such a thing happen? ignis could see without his glasses.. but now he had gone totally blind?
unbeknownst to [name], ignis had used the ring of lucii to try and fight ardyn. it led to him gaining a scar on his face, and his loss of vision. the power was too much for him that it deteriorated his eyesight and painted his skin with a memory he'll never forget.
"i.. got myself into a fight with ardyn trying to protect noct." ignis explained, trying his best to keep his composure and look strong infront of [name]. "i used the ring's power, [name]. it was too much and this is how i ended up." ignis shook his head. he didn't enjoy the situation he was in, but he would live with it no matter what.
"oh.." [name]'s voice dropped along with his face. he couldn't believe what he had just heard. he didn't even know that ignis had gotten into a fight with ardyn. why did he not know sooner? ignis was meant to be the man he loved, and cherished, and cared for but he didn't even know that the other had been seriously injured.
"ignis, i'm.. i'm sorry." [name] mumbled, letting go of ignis' hands. he then burried his face into his own hands, feeling as if he was about to cry. he couldn't believe such a thing had happened, and all he could do was apologise for something he hadn't done.
"[name], it's alright." ignis frowned as he felt the mood shift suddenly. he knows he shouldn't of dropped something so heavy, but [name] was bound to find out anyway. "i'll get used to it. it's fine." ignis sighed. in reality, it wasn't fine. nothing was fine about this situation, but ignis just wanted [name] to stop worrying.
[name] shook his head, biting his lip whilst he was at it too. none of this was fine, when ignis said it was fine he lied. how could [name] trust him now? everything was going to be so different, [name] couldn't help but worry. he had to worry for himself and ignis, there was nothing else he could do.
"it's not alright, ignis. i know you don't think this is alright, you yourself said earlier you were alright then you lied." [name] spoke, his voice cracking as it filled with various different emotions. he felt so distressed, yet angry, yet worried at the same time. he was so confused. why wasn't he there for ignis?
ignis felt the area around him before he grabbed [name]'s hand and held it close to him. "yes, i'm afraid you're right. i'm not alright, [name]. i'm far from it." ignis admitted, feeling vulnerable speaking about his emotions so openly.
"i'm scared, terrified even. i don't want to live the rest of my life in darkness. i won't be able to see you, or the others anymore. i won't be able to cook or drive the regalia." ignis started to break down, letting all of his emotions flow as he spoke to [name]. "i'm useless now, [name]. my lost vision had made me useless." ignis sighed.
[name] shook his head and he gripped onto ignis' hand tightly to try and somewhat reassure him. "no, no ignis. you're not useless." [name] said, frowning as he heard how negative ignis was about himself and his situation. "you're far from it, being blind doesn't make you useless! we'll get through this, ignis. i'll help you, ignis. i'll do everything i can to help you." [name] continued, practically on the verge of sobbing.
"[name], it would be pointless." ignis mumbled, still thinking of himself as useless because of this situation. he didn't believe that anything good could come out of this situation. "my vision won't magically come back if you help me, and nothing good will come from this!" ignis groaned.
then, [name] cut off ignis with a kiss. he couldn't take ignis speaking of himself so negatively. it hurt him too much to hear the love of his life speaking so negatively about himself. he couldn't stand it, and he wouldn't stand it one bit.
"ignis." [name] stated as he pulled away from the kiss, brushing a few stray hairs out of ignis' face. "you are far from useless, and me helping you won't be pointless." the male continued, doing his best to reassure ignis.
"we'll get through this together." [name] carried on speaking as he slid onto the bed to lay next to ignis. "no matter what, we'll always be together. i'll guide you until we're old, help you navigate the world when all you see is darkness." [name] hummed, speaking more and more sweet promises into ignis' ear.
[name] carefully traced the scar that was under ignis' eye. it was so beautiful that it looked natural on ignis. [name] loved it already.
"ignis, i love you. i'll love you no matter what. if you're blind, unable to get out of bed, or even unable to do anything. i'll always love you." [name] whispered into ignis' ear before placing a kiss on ignis' scar.
"it's me and you, together forever. you got that?" [name] smiled, placing a few more kisses along ignis' face. he wouldn't stop, even if ignis asked him to. he loved him too much to ever stop loving him.
ignis sighed, giving up all of his protesting now. he wouldn't even try to stop [name], because he knew [name] wouldn't stop if he asked.
"fine, yes. it's us together, always." ignis smiled himself, leaning into [name]'s touches and kisses. he didn't want this feeling to stop, ever. he wanted to truly stay with [name] forever and for as long as possible.
"now that you said that, i'm never letting you go." [name] chuckled to himself, leaning in and making himself comfortable against ignis' chest. "we're staying by eachothers side no matter what."
it was true, [name] never let go of ignis. the two faced the impossible and [name] did whatever it took to help ignis face the darkness he was surrounded it. the two stayed by eachother's sides, together, forever.

Hello! How are you doing? I wanted to request an Ignis Scientia with a gender neutral reader who always has extremely cold hands to the point they hurt, and Ignis lets them borrow his gloves, however they're way too big on him? Thank you and take care!
hey! im doing alright thanks for asking and requesting :) hope you enjoy this
☆ gloves and cold hands
ignis scientia x gn reader [they / them]
sypnosis: above.
the lowercase is intentional!

[name] was sitting themselves, too focused on trying to warm up their ever frozen hands. but it was of no use.
their hands were cold - as if they had been shoved into a freezer overnight. their hands were always cold though, to the point where it hurt and it was completely unbearable to them.
a sigh escaped [name]'s lips, as a frown formed on their face. nothing was helping their ice cold hands at all. all this sitting around was making [name]'s hands hurt even more.
ignis noticed the frown on his partners lips and he frowned too. he hated seeing them so upset, and he knew he had to do something for them.
the man pulled off the gloves that were covering his hands before he walked over to his parter, handing them the gloves.
"here." ignis said as he handed [name] the gloves, a small smile on his face in hopes of reassuring his partner. he hoped they knew that they weren't alone, that he'd always be there with him - even if they had cold hands.
the gloves were silver in colour, and pretty shimmering in the light too. sure, they were intended to be used as driving gloves, but they should be enough to try and warm up [name]'s poor, cold hands.
[name] looked up at ignis and smiled at him before they slipped on the gloves carefully, trying not to ruin or damage the gloves as they were ignis' after all. not theirs.
"thank you." [name] speaks softly, a warm smile still on his face. hopefully their smile was as warm as how ignis' gloves would make their hands.
[name] inspected their hands, twirling them around infront of their eyes to get a better view of how they looked like in the gloves.
to say the least, the gloves were too big for [name]'s hands. yet, they weren't going to complain. it was nice sharing something of ignis', even if it was just his gloves.
"they are rather too big, ignis." [name] commented, still staring at their hands as they spoke.
ignis laughed in response to his partner's comment, taking a look at their hands. "why yes, they are quite big for you my love." ignis sighed, shaking his head.
the man then crouched down and got to his partner's level, staring at their hands and the gloves that now decorated them.
"i guess i'll just have to make you some new ones then, that will fit. i can't have my partner's hands freezing off can i?" ignis teased before pressing a kiss to [name]'s forehead.
[name] felt so happy and warm inside. they were truly glad that they had someone so understanding as ignis in their life.
"i'd like that." [name] responded, looking over at ignis with stars in their eyes. they were truly so grateful for having ignis in their life.
"these gloves aren't half bad, you know? i feel my hands defrosting already." they joked, looking back at their hands and squeezing them lightly to see if they were as cold as they were before. luckily, it seemed to be that the gloves were somewhat working.
ignis hummed and nodded, smiling sweetly at his partner. he found it adorable how they looked in his gloves.
"that's perfect. i'll make sure to make your gloves similar to mine so we can match." the man said, giving [name] another quick kiss before he pulled away.
gloves for their hands that looked just like ignis'? [name] thought they were on cloud 9 in that moment. but they were so, so glad. hopefully their hands wouldn't always be like ice blocks now.
