There's just one problem with that whole 'going home before leaving again on a world-wide search' bit, and that's inevitably having moogles gossip about it behind one's back while you're asleep. As it is, he'd been woken up to a flurry of worried and frustrated kupos not an hour before the video is made. He glared at Ivory, but noting Prompto was already out for his morning jog, he sees why Ivory waited. He sighed, telling her to pack his things because if Gladio wasn't going to ask him then he sure as hell was going to follow. If nothing else than to ensure his safety.

He'd only been here a month, after all. While he had some skills under his belt now, it didn't mean he was adept at handling large groups on his own (unlike at home). And, unlike Gladio, he at least left a message for Ignis, Prompto, and Ravus. Along with the travel agency in Safer Osu stating he'd need to take time off even sooner than expected due to a family emergency.

It isn't until he slows down to purchase an airship ticket that the Ninja made himself known, sighing as he stepped up to walk beside him. "You know, you could have asked to take the Regalia at least."

Busted, but at least it isn't Ignis. ...Yet.
