[ ignis' arms wind around him. it's clearly too long in the making, too long that albert has to bear this burden and then some. he can feel it, the powerful burn of that intense love, like fire that would scorch him from the inside out. ignis recognises that kind of love and the grief and heartbreak that accompanies it. after all, albert is only human -- and he's clearly reached his limit.
he absorbs albert's moods, the feelings that resonate in their bond so powerfully that he forgets to breathe for a moment, reaching out with his own serenity, to let him know that he's here. he focuses on albert's roiling emotions, feeling them for himself but letting him know, too, that he's not alone as he strokes his hair and presses his lips to the crown of his head.
he lets him break in his arms, the hot burn of tears seeping through the fabric of his shirt, and ignis lets him cry it out. the intensity of albert's emotions is overwhelming, enthralling, but ignis takes it all as he continues to hold his lover, to let him cry it out. his fingers come to curl in his hair, stroking him through his breakdown.
