mylandmyrulesNell had kept some of the favorite of the rubber ducks and hidden them around the house in odd places where Gladio (or anyone else who stopped by) might stumble upon them unexpectedly. She also kept out a small box of them to give to Prompto for Noctra.He and Liz might not thank her for that, but Noctra would surely enjoy them!

And Nell would probably know the moment Gladio found one himself when he got home to put away his coat (yes, he did wear them sometimes) and laughed out loud.
The squeaking would probably reach her before he did, and he held it up, looking almost comically small in his large hand as he asked, "New friend?"

And a significant amount of squeaking coming from the room in the minutes to pass by from there was a pretty good indication that he was having much more luck finding ducks than bowties right now.
"Where did you even get all of these?" he called back out to her, especially after noticing the one with glasses on the bookshelf and actually went to then see if she'd put any under the bed, too.

She shifted to peek in at him. "I've got a whole box for Noctra."
