Day 7: I Love You for #WoLGrahaWeek2025 (and today, #grahatiaday!)

I did it, I finished Take Me Lost, Make Me Found! Enjoy not one but TWO final chapters for G'raha and his Warrior 💕

Read Chapter 8 and 9 here: archiveofourown.org/works/619446...

[ #ffxivfic #shbspoilers #wolgraha #arkinwriting ]
“Why me?” G’raha whispers, though perhaps he begins to see the shape of the answer. Arkin smiles, his hand grazing G’raha’s shoulder, trying once again to heal the hurt there. This time, G’raha focuses on relaxing. “I could ask you the same thing. I saw you, you know. In an Echo. You spoke of giving up your life for mine. And not only your life, but your precious time spent living. Why me? I wondered. Because I’m the Warrior of Light and Darkness? A tool worth saving at any cost?” G’raha is already shaking his head, but he stills when Arkin thumbs over the shard of crystal in his cheek, wiping the tears there. “Will you tell me?” his Warrior asks, so close their breath mingles. G’raha’s heart hammers in his chest, and he can feel its mirror all the way in Arkin’s fingertips. They find one another’s gaze, dizzy and almost overwhelming in their shared intensity. It was a truth G’raha had hardly let himself consider, even within the confines of his Tower, his hood and robe shed in the solitude of the small hours. He pauses, unsure of how to give voice to it. “It was the memory of you at first,” he begins slowly, “of our short time together. Those memories warmed me when little else could. And then, as the years passed… it was the myth of you. From what few scraps I had gathered before I arrived on the First.” The words come faster now, tumbling out of him. “Accounts spoke of your strength, aye, but even more of your boundless kindness, and I pinned my hopes on meeting that man once more before my end. But from the moment you let me into your room that night… the way you opened your heart for me, I—” The admission bubbles up, spills over. “‘Twas because I fell in love with you, over and over and over.”

Given that Arkin can't write until post-EW and isn't great at it even after, so linkpearls are a necessary evil for urgent calls. Arkin isn't in communication with his mother for most of MSQ, but might use a linkpearl to talk to G'raha, but typically he's kind of old-fashioned about technology.

A #wolqotd - How often does your wol/oc call those not with them in MSQ? Do their families have a linkpearl so that they might communicate easier when far away? Do they refuse knowing that they can be listened in on?

I saw a post on reddit about Calvin Klein at 83 with his much younger bf and I knew what I had to do 😂

[cw: consensual dom/sub, ball gag, bondage]

Handled like something infinitely precious.
#AedRaha #wolgraha
An edited NSFW screenshot of my wolgraha ship. Aedric, my elezen WoL, sits leaning forward on a plush red armchair while G'raha kneels on the carpeted floor before him. G'raha is completely nude, save for being tied, shibari style, in red rope across his torso, arms bound behind his back; he also has a black ball gag placed in his mouth and fastened around his head. He's drooling around the gag, looking up with a pleading expression and flushed cheeks, as Aedric holds his chin in his hand, the drool dripping down to coat the elezen's thumb. Aedric smiles softly down at his lover, and we can surmise that he's been praising G'raha this whole time. And because I have to say this now to Bsky moderation, they are consenting. Aedric and G'raha are two consenting adults engaging in consensual BDSM. They consent! Do I need to say it more?

Rope burns. 🎀
(a.k.a. Aedric and G'raha's friends wish they'd be a little more subtle sometimes) #AedRaha
An edited screenshot of Krile, G'raha, and Aedric leaning against a tavern counter. Krile is staring at the subtle rope burns on G'raha's wrist. G'raha, meanwhile, has no idea. Aedric also has multiple hickeys on his neck, but don't worry about it. Alisaie, Tataru, Y'shtola, Alphinaud, Urianger, and Thancred can be seen in the background, unbeknownst to Krile finding out that her brother is into bondage.
