Cain's selfies (hereinafter internalized as "The Picture") accompanies a message that's so clearly for him it makes him shiver; however, a savvy member of his generation, spies where it was sent too early to fully enjoy it. And that's the greatest sin here, really. That he has to wait until this blows over to closely examine The Picture, his appreciation for the disseminator of The Picture, and how much of a shit show his life has become.
The group chat header flashes at him like a neon warning sign ("Caution, Falling Rocks"), Noctis' notification forcing him to close out of The Picture with haste.
Oh, man. Oh God, oh man, Oh God.
He feels no dread. Contrarily, it's excitement that makes his stomach tense, suddenly rising from his seat in the back of his ship to pace a hole in the floor. Cain wouldn't have sent The Picture purposely to them both... right? There's no way. Not after the talk he had with him about Noctis' firm boundaries, and certainly not when their entanglement is only semi-public.
What the fuck does he do with this? Respond? Get angry? Express interest while remaining cool and aloof? Ignore it entirely and text a complimentary aside to Cain, who looks like a Greek God?
... Briefly admires The Picture again before owning up to his part of the chaos. )
Hi Okay So This is probably the most embarrassing way to say this but this was for me Highly unintentional I am so sorry you had to see this
