Absolutely

Rifra has a lot of scars all over his body just from all the fighting and battles he's' done but the most notable ones are the scar on his chest from the abundance of light aether and the Lichtenberg scars from the lightning attack in 7.2!

Haurchefant definitely had feelings for Seren/Rifra but never acted on

Aymeric also does but he's trapped behind his desk and just knows it wouldn't work out

G'raha does as well but is too terrified to tell Rifra about it because. Yeah.

So like how Wuk Lamat is called Lamaty'i as a term of endearment does your WoL have such a name that people call them?

For Hotaru one that sticks to him is Little Scuba or Smotaru.

Rifra is like, a mix of player 2 and 3

Rifra assumes that Garleans have probably killed her birth mother (as she never learns her true fate) and the village matriarch was about to exchange her to the Garleans stationed in Dalmasca in exchange for their protection

MAJOR END OF ENDWALKER SPOILERS

#rifralore #ramywrites
The Song of Oblivion has been stopped. The Endsinger has been defeated. Meteion has once again found hope in the world. The apocalypse was averted. Rifra was ready to go home. Home, to the Ragnarok, where all of his Scion friends that he teleported away were waiting for him. Home, to Etheirys where all the friends he made along his journey stood with bated breaths praying for his success. Home, to his sisters who wanted to welcome their sibling back. Yet what was in her way but Zenos viator Galvus? He did accompany the viera in the final battle, allowing her to stand upon the back of his Shinryu form, yet his thirst for a fight seemed to be unsatiated as he stood, questioning the Warrior of Light about her reason for fighting, for adventuring, her entire purpose. Did she also fight for the sake of seeking thrill? Just like him? Rifra refused to answer, feeling the anger within boiling once more. Who was he to determine that she was anything like him? What gave him the right to compare himself to her, he who fought and killed just to feel something when she bloodied her hands to protect those she cared for? A Garlean bastard, through and through. "I've had enough of you. This ends here." And so they exchange blows, scythe against axe, a battle for the history books with no witnesses at the end of the world. With each strike did Zenos's expression change, feeling more elated by the second. The opposite was true for Rifra, whose wrath began to manifest bit by bit. She carried the pain of her village, the hurt of the Dalmascans, the anguish of Eorzeans, the suffering of Ala Mhigans, the agony of Domans, the burden of everyone she met who suffered under Garlemald's conquest. The dynamis surrounding them began to heighten his rage, feeding into his Inner Beast. Eventually her attacks became more carnal, eventually forgoing her axe for her bare hands, throwing fist after fist at the former crown prince, until eventually she launched himself at the viator and tore his throat out with her teeth, tasting his blood in her mouth. As Zenos drowned in his own blood, Rifra slumped to the ground, a wave of catharsis washing over her. She finally enacted her vengeance. Yet the Garlean's words from the past echoed in her head, recalling the time she confronted him so long ago. "It fills you even now, doesn't it? The hunger. To bite down on my jugular, to feel the warmth fill your mouth and run over even as you drink deep. Good, good! "This is the beast I've longed to face!" In a desperate attempt to finally bring peace to his demons, to finally quell the beast that resided within her, Rifra granted Zenos's greatest desire and fulfilled her biggest fear. She could no longer call herself human. Before the last teleporter materialized her away from the Garlean's corpse, a gut-wrenching, anguished cry rang throughout the edge of the universe, but there was no one there to hear it.

It's hard to get Rifra flustered/blushy because he's super confident and already pretty flirtatious but if someone does make him blush? She gets red in the face, her ears droop a bit, and she definitely stammers!

I feel like when people think of Rifra and her close friends, Ryne isn't someone people would imagine being included, so I wanted to write something that explored their relationship!

#ramywrites #rifralore
Ryne and Rifra lead against a railing in the Crystarium's Pendants housing area, having a conversation at night. Fic starts here because ran out of room on alt text on other images. Ryne. That was her new name. No longer was she Minfilia, with golden locks and eyes an eerie blue that one could swear they could see the Aetherial Sea through, the trademark features of all of her predecessors that carried the burdens that came with the name. No longer was she but a mere reiteration of the fabled Oracle of Light, existing only to protect humanity from the sin eaters and the rampant light they were born from. She was now Ryne Waters, with salmon-red hair and pale-blue eyes that shone like the morning sky. And the Minfilia that the Scions of the Seventh Dawn knew and loved was no more. The name was a blessing from Thancred, the mark of a new beginning, the start of the girl's autonomy. Despite that, however, Ryne still seemed to remain uncertain around her father figure, as if she was a child trying to avoid disappointing her parent. Understandable, of course, as Thancred was also awkward in his attempts to open up to her. It was also difficult for many to adjust to, with anyone interacting her habitually greeting her with her old name before correcting themselves. It was supposed to be a liberating process, becoming her own person, yet the girl couldn't help but feel as if the weight of Minfilia's name refused to leave her. A sleepless night at the Crystarium prompted her to wander the hallways of the Pendants, its shadowy atmosphere still not something she was accustomed to. What was once constantly bright and washed out by the glaring light was bathed in a blue, gentle glow of the moon and stars. It provided respite to those who were weary, no longer battered by the blinding sky, and it was these quiet, tranquil moments that reminded Ryne of what she was fighting for, what she was able to accomplish. And it was thanks to the Warrior of Darkness, who just so happened to be leaning against a railing, staring up at the sky. "S—" The girl caught herself making the same mistake others made around her. "Rifra?" The vii— no, viera, turned to her, a smile curling the corner of his lips. "Couldn't sleep either, Ryne?" If there was one person who always said her new name on their first try, it was him. "Admittedly, yes..." she muttered. "I had hoped a walk around would help." Her confession was received with a chuckle in response. "Looks like that's another thing we have in common." It took a moment for Ryne to realize what he meant by "another". For a brief second, she gazed into her friend's aether, a blinding white drowning out the blood red that had previously colored his soul. "Are you feeling alright?" "Me?" Rifra seemed genuinely surprised at the concern directed towards him before he realized what she implied. "Oh... I'm feeling fine for now, but let's not worry about me. Come here." The girl sheepishly made her way towards Rifra, placing her hands on the railing as she followed her companion's gaze to the sky. "Do you wanna know something interesting?" Rifra asked, to which Ryne nodded, curious as to what he would say. "Back on the Source, there's a land called the Azim Steppe, a vast grassland home to countless tribes of au ra, our equivalent of drahn. There is one tribe in particular, the Dotharl, who believed in reincarnation. Every member is said to be a reincarnated member of their ancestors, even adopting their name. Some take pride in their identity, some wish they could be their own person." He turned to his friend, who wore a puzzled expression on her face. "What I'm trying to say is, whatever you're feeling right now, it's okay to have those sentiments. People will need time to adjust to it, but ultimately what's more important is how you feel towards all of it." Ryne took a moment to process Rifra's words, studying his gentle, freckled face. His eyes were becoming more tired with each day spent fighting against the ever-looming threat of the First, and she wondered how much pain hid behind his smile. "You're... also using a different name..." she piped up. "How are you feeling about it, if I may ask?" "Me?" He let a pause hang in the air a bit, trying to string words together into a response. "My situation is different from yours, Ryne. You got a new name to celebrate your new identity, while the name I'm using now is what I was born with." "Rifra is your true name?" "It is. The viera, or vii, back home have a 'forest name', the name given to them at birth, and those who leave their villages would adopt a 'city name' as a way to signify a new life. In a sense, 'Rifra' is my forest name while 'Seren' is my city name." "Then... if that is the case for your people then why were the other Scions upset?" The look of regret in Rifra's eyes briefly made Ryne reconsider her question before he gave an answer. "Because 'Seren' isn't just my city name. It was a mask I wore to protect myself, but I was just paranoid. 'Seren' is a man who's confident, strong, fights his problems head on. 'Rifra' is a woman who ran away from danger, who... abandoned her village and her little sister to save herself. My own paranoia turned out to be unnecessary, but by the time I realized it, I couldn't just tell them that Seren isn't... me. I deceived the Scions for the past few summers on who I was, and that was why they were upset with me." "I see..." Her anxiety must have manifested onto her face as Rifra placed a hand on the girl's head, rubbing it like how an older sibling would. "But it's all in the past, just like the name 'Minfilia'. What we can do now is discard those names, leave behind Minfilia and Seren, and look to the future as ourselves, as Ryne and Rifra. We can't let others tell us otherwise." For the first time that night, Ryne wore a smile on her face, pride in her name swelling in her chest. "I will, Rifra." "And if Thancred is still making it hard for you, you come find me, okay?" And the smile grew into a giggle. "I will be doing no such thing. I believe in him." "The offer still stands~" Quiet laughter mingled with the ambience as the night sky provided solace to the two girls. Of all people, Ryne was thankful to have a friend in the Warrior of Darkness, and if there was anyone that could understand her struggle, it was him. She leaned against the viera, like how a little sibling would to their elder, and let out a sigh. She did not have family of her blood, but through Thancred, Rifra and the Scions, she was able to have a family she could call her own. They were people who cared about her not as the Oracle of Light, but as Ryne. "Thank you, Rifra."

The way my jaw dropped at that cutscene... More context in alt text

#ramypose #rifralore
Wuk Lamat carries the unconscious Rifra as she, Sphene, and Gulool Ja run towards the backrooms in Solution 9 Rifra is sensitive to lightning aether, and being in Solution 9 in general makes her very overstimulated. When Calyx uses all of the electricity in Solution 9 in an assassination attempt against the Warrior of Light, it has much more severe effects on Rifra due to his sensitivity. Him being the Warrior of Light made him be able to live through the attack, but had Calyx had even a little bit more aether to use for the attack, it would have actually killed her. Rifra is going in and out of consciousness during that entire cutscene, spasming in pain the whole time, until she finally blacks out near the end of the discussion. The trio swiftly grabs him and takes him to the Backrooms so that the healer Scions can look after him. Rifra lies on a Breakroom bed, a new scar streaking across the right side of his body, the aftermath of Calyx's assassination attempt. Due to her sensitivity to lightning aether, the attack left a permanent mark on her body.
