Summary
Responding to a challenge on ElysianFields.
Spike shushes her and she stops as he begins to talk gently but firmly.
"Why wish vengeance against the one who hurt us? Will it make either of us feel better? Doubt it. More like, we'd just feel worse for hurting someone we still love, who doesn't give a damn about us. We'd still love them, though. If I could make just one wish, I would wish that we could both stop loving the ones who hurt us so badly."
This is it.
She can feel the wish bubbling up inside her, the power growing and burning through her, burning out everything that isn’t the power and the wish and the relief.
Her eyes snap up to meet his, her gaze steady her voice no longer shattered but firm and kind.
"Wish granted."

Summary
He smells booze.
Distinct and pungent on Nyx's breath, and it's a blessing and a curse because that impaired judgement is probably what finally led him to open the door. But Nyx is an unknown, a ghost, by most accounts. And Ignis doesn't know if all the heavy drinking he's been doing will help or hurt in the end.
"The fuck do you want?"
It's not a pretty image that Ignis puts together in his mind, but at least the first question Nyx had asked him hadn't been who the fuck are you and that's something. He may not have much dignity left, but it's still worth trying to preserve. They hadn't had much interaction at the Citadel, and in the grand scale of time, not much has passed, but enough has happened to them both to change everything.
"Nyx Ulric," he says, "may I come in."
In which: Ignis find Nyx in the World of Ruin, and Nyx finds Ignis back. They do not go gentle into that good night.

Summary
Nyx smiles and Ignis can see the faint dimples in his cheeks, hidden among the stubble that he never seems to shave off entirely, but that’s okay because Ignis finds he very much likes the way that it looks.
Nyx smiles.
His cough gets worse.
