It was a simple day and you were at a meeting (be it work or school) when you suddenly felt that. The blood flow. You quickly and promptly excused yourself from the meeting, pushing back your chair and walking off before anyone could stop you and you swiftly made your way to the nearest bathroom. When you got there you realize that yes, you were on your period even though it technically wasn’t due for another day or two. The icing on the cake was the fact that your bag had no more pads in it. You exhaled, thought quickly and pulled out your phone.
Noctis:
- Blushes so hard that his face becomes pure red, and trips over his words to have you repeat it.
- Awkwardly says, “…Oh,” when you tell him once more that you need him to run to the store to get you pads.
- Is clueless about periods.
- The babe is also very embarrassed about the task, but will go ahead and do it anyway.
- At the end of the day he will do anything for his S/O !!
- Will warp to the store if you timidly ask, “Please?” in that cute tone and puppy dog eyes.
- He’s whipped on a regular occasion, but more so when you’re on your period.
- “Can you get me the maxi ones, unscented with wings? The brand doesn’t matter.“
- Is super confused
- Wtfuck do wings have to do with this???
- How the hell is he supposed to tell if they’re unscented?
- In his flustered state he probably doesn’t even notice that it’s written on the front.
- Ends up trying to smell different brands and types in the middle of the store, and the people around him would just look at him weirdly.
- Tomorrow’s newspapers will say something along the lines of, “The crown prince has a pad smelling fetish?!"
- Ignis will deal with the media right away.
- Also, why are they so darn expensive? And tiny?
- The poor baby doesn’t know that they’re folded.
- As king he will fight against the absurdly expensive price of feminine hygiene products.
Prompto:
- Will blush as well, but not as hard as Noctis.
- He’s more shy than embarrassed.
- He’s not the most knowledgeable about pads, but was pretty attentive during school and the Sex Ed unit, so he’s not completely clueless.
- But then he pumps himself up to go to the store. Like hell yea, [Name] trusts me enough for me to let me do this for her.
- Will almost literally skip to the store to get it once he has this revelation.
- He sees it as a labor of love.
- If you don’t give him the brand and type that you will usually use, he will literally spend hours trying to see what’s the best one for you, (if he wasn’t in such a time crunch), or be tempted to buy one of each.
No baby those things add up.- Will probably ask some random lady for help.
- "Excuse me? Can you help me pick out a pad for my girlfriend? She needs some right now, but I’m not sure which one to get, and I really want to help her out. ” Cue adorkable smile.
- Every female from teen to middle aged will have their heart melt then and there.
- Prompto receives Feminine Hygiene Products 101 in the middle of the store from multiple women.
- Unflattering pictures of you that he saved on his phone will probably end up being passed around.
- “Yup! That’s the love of my life!"
- Even though he is now a Pad Connoisseur™, Prompto will be biased towards pads with flowery, lacy designs, because he thinks they’re pretty and cute.
- "Look, [Name]! I found these ones at the store and they have these flower-like designs on them! Aren’t they cute?"
- "They’re going to be useless because I’m going to be bleeding all over them, but okay."

Gladiolus:
- Say no more
- Will strut to the feminine hygiene aisle with no hesitation.
- He’s already used to this from Iris.
- As a matter of fact, you don’t even have to give him the name of the brand and type that you usually use, he has some recommendations of his own.
- Will rip into the "overly masculine” teeny bopper cashier who tries to make fun of him for going out and getting pads.
- “What’s so funny about getting pads, huh?"
- With a simple cross of his arms, his muscles will practically tear the fabric of his sleeves.
- "Does it look like I’m the one with the period? I don’t get where the misunderstanding here is, kid. This means that there is a woman out there that I love so much, I’m not embarrassed about going out and buying these pads.”
- Will probably go on a passionate rant about how close, trusting, and intimate your relationship is. Women swoon, cheers and clapping will be heard.
That’s nice and all, sir, but you’re holding up the line at the cashier.- AND ANOTHER THING:
- “This also means that I’m having hot sex with a beautiful lady every day!"
- He will start carrying some of your pads for you just in case you forget.
Ignis:
- He’d probably be keeping track of your period, and is always prepared for any situation, so the fact of the matter is that he would already have some pads handy at home or in his bag.
- But if your relationship is still fairly new, and the two of you haven’t breached that subject yet, he will listen carefully to your instructions, and will do some research of his own on the way to the store.
- For Ignis it is fairly simple. His trained eyes can hone in on the particular pads that you want, and he will get in and get out just like that.
- Along the way he will also pick up some mild painkillers, a heat pad, a bunch of water bottles, snacks, and groceries to prepare your favorite foods with vitamin rich ingredients to help you along your period journey.
- However, as efficient as this mom friend is, he won’t be discreet when he delivers you your items.
- The menstrual cycle is natural, and he just doesn’t see how the subject is taboo to some.
- He didn’t go to a regular school, so he wasn’t surrounded by boys his age who were squeamish about the subject. Nor did the subject ever come up on any other occasion other than when he was learning about it.
- He would probably end up giving you your large bag of stuff in the middle of the room for everyone to see. He announces that he not only got you pads, but also painkillers, and heated your heat pad, got you a thermos of hot water along the way, and reminded you to drink your water to relieve cramps.
- At the end of the day everyone knew that you were on your period.
- But you were thankful for what he did. You just made a note to yourself to ask him to deliver your stuff discreetly next time.
- Like Gladio, he would end up carrying some pads with him at all times for you.
Extra:
In the wonderful fictional kingdom of Lucis, there is no luxury tax on your pads or tampons because even an old man like Regis would know that having your period is not a luxury.
