Gladio was pretty sure he was never going to be able to listen to a goose honking again without recalling just how melancholy the sound could truly be. "Yeah, well," he offered, "a little advice? Man to man....err, well, man to goose, I guess, but from someone who knows that guy probably better than anyone?"

"He's going to probably need some space. Don't take it personally, it's just the way he is. We've all had a really rough time of it, these last ten years, but he got it probably worse than any of us."
Well, except Noctis, but Gladio felt that went without saying.
"He's been through a lot. And it might not seem like it sometimes, but he's going to be grateful to have you there for him. Just remember that, okay?
"Careful with that," he added, nodding now toward thr Cup NoddleTM, while pulling himself up to get his own. "It's pretty hot."
