Okay so i briefly touched on this in a stream a week or so ago. I've seen the new Pacific Rim and LOVED it so with it of course comes the Drift Compatible AUs
So I was thinking of Noctis, exceptionally high scores, an absolute prodigy in the Simulators. Very few can best him in a fight.
But utterly incompatible with 99% of the cadets. He can manage a meagre connection with his retainers. He's still a prince and willingly accepted to join the program but he just can't find a pilot.
Enter Prompto, a good all-rounder. Weapons skills unbeatable. So adaptable that he's almost fully compatible with every single person who has tried to drift with him.
Until sharing the load and memories become involved and Prompto panics every single time and the connection severs.
I'm thinking in this instance that instead of the Nif testing being with daemon blood - it would be Kaiju and the memories of the testing are so severe and traumatic that no one has been able to deal with it if they get that far.
Marshall Leonis himself had tried and washed out so he can't really fault anyone else and Prompto is so earnest and talented that they can't kick him out so he's kept as a reserve.
And then he meets Noctis.
