I'm just illuminating the problem with Black Mage theorium here. Not all things are 'kill it with fire'.

[Oh ho, so Noctis knows. He's not surprised. But it does make him think how next time Keith's birthday rolls around he'll be very careful with the planning around it.]

[warpstriking]

[... Okay, he'd been aware that Shiro was a nerd, but this is literally his first language. Noctis grins widely.]

One of these days, I'm gonna have to show you how to YEET a sword... and follow it.

[Like he did in that memory. Only with less damage to oneself.]

[That brings him up short. His mind flashes back to seeing Noctis flow through the battlefield like a crashing wave. He's seen swordwork before but coupled with the warping like he'd used with Black...

Noctis had been like artwork when he caught sight of him. The offer of letting him be the same is no light matter. His voice comes out soft, and a little breathy in how surprised he is at the offer.]

...I'd be honored. You did say that Black warps like you do...so that might even make Black easier to use.

[He wouldn't say he's a crashing wave on the battlefield, even before the Revelation of Leviathan. It was a dance of light and fire intertwining, the spark of life unafraid to shine bright amidst the night sky but gone far too soon. Riding on the air as if the wind was solid and striking quick like lightning.]

You never know. Besides, you got to see some of it... even if half of the lightshow was the Ring.

[The blasts of light in particular; those won't be something he shares.]
