Finding a New Normal
Who: Tony + Gladio, Tony + OTA
Where: His office, the gym, anywhere but the kitchen
When: Egret 22-24
What: Tony dealing post-breakup
[For Gladio: Egret 22, evening]
He left the quiet room they'd been talking in and headed down the hall. It was late enough not too many people were around but not quite so safe as the middle of the night. His expression was hard. Anger and hurt were turbulent inside him for however long they'd been in that room. Now things were starting to just feel numb. He paused at the door to his office before he shook his head and continued on to the standard car where the store was. Damn party draining him of all his- what had Ignis called it? His vices.
Just as he picked the bottle up, he straightened and inwardly cringed as he stood face to face with Gladio. He took a ragged breath. "You should go find Ignis. He's going to need a friend."
[OTA]
There had been friction often in his relationship with Ignis. There had been many high points, but also some impressive lows. None so much as the other night. He sighed as he poured himself another glass. The details didn't matter really. He still cared deeply for the younger man and that wouldn't change. The simple fact that it became apparent they couldn't agree on some very fundamental things made them realize this wasn't working. So now he had a fresh bottle of bourbon and his ring back.
The first day was mainly spent in his office drinking and watching the Void till it gave him a headache. The second, he hit the gym. Wrapping his fists, he pummeled one of his dummies he'd made till his knuckles split and then switched to a sword.
That evening, he requested from one of his friends to get dinner delivered to his office so he wouldn't have to deal with Ignis' domain (i.e. the kitchen).
[OOC: Come bug him anywhere along this timeline.]

He shook his head. His words came out heated and angry, although obviously they weren't directed at the man getting them now. "I've given Ignis every damn thing he's asked for. Everything. I showed up here just after losing my family and I wasn't planning on finding anyone else. It just happened. When he got concerned about what it was, we made it official. When he started getting worried about something else, we got engaged. We were talking about the damn wedding even.. but what the hell? Whoever raised him did a number on his head."

"Ignis is his own worst enemy. He thinks he's being logical and reasonable but half of the shit that comes outta him is neither of those things." But Ignis played a good name and he could convince people he had it all together, even himself at times, but Gladio wasn't fooled. It just drove him insane. It was one thing to act the fool in front of him. But Tony? Tony should have been exempt from that. Ignis had found someone who loved him. Why the hell was he sabotaging that?
