fanfic snippet:
G'raha,

We've made it to the Dravanian Hinterlands. We crested a hill and met a lonely vista: the ruins of New Sharlayan, scattered across fields of rolling green. Long-abandoned buildings crumble like sandcastles in the tide. It's beautiful. It's heartbreaking.

I can't stop thinking about you.

Haurchefant said that I should write more. Told him I have no idea what to write, and he suggested a letter, even if the recipient was never going to read it. (crossed out) I guess you definitely won't be reading this, since you locked yourself in a tower for a trillion years. (end cross) I doubt you'll ever read this. He says it's the writing that's important.

(crossed out) So little has changed since you left.

purely aesthetically, Khovu would be purpurite! it's a gorgeous color, very similar to how I picture his eyes 💜 lore wise, I'd say silicon carbide. it suits him as a magitek engineer, and there's parallells to his WoL story in how it's naturaly rare but can be produced artificially on demand...

a polished teardrop of purpurite. the stone is a deep, shimmering violet, seeming to glitter in the light, with grey veins streaked through its surface like deep scratches.

a chunk of silicon carbide. it's a jagged, rock-like object with a rough and pitted texture. its base color is dark, nearly black, but the rough edges reveal an iridescent spectrum of glinting green, purple, and blue.

if anyone wanted to recreate the wiring - I'm no electrician, but here's how I set it up: two 3V flicker LEDs wired in parallel to two AA batteries (which are connected in series to supply 3V). the switch is optional; I barely use it. and you could easily tape the battery holder in the back!

the back of the acrylic book nook/standee. two LEDs are taped to the acrylic. They're wired in parallel (black/negative leads together, red/positive leads together) and connected to a battery holder with two AA batteries (red wires together, black wires together). the red lead from the battery holder has a push button switch.

the same circuit tucked away in the back of the nook. the battery holder fits neatly in the existing cavity with plenty of room to spare.

a couple more from the same fic. for context on the first snippet, G'raha is a non-op trans man in these fics. for the second snippet, please know it would've been the cold open of a new scene.

He’s been G’raha Tia for many, many years, and he’s been incredibly happy that way. The gender fits him like a well-tailored glove; it feels right. And he’s pleased with his body the way it is; he has no intention of growing the organs required to fulfill a Nunh’s physical duties. But he’s occasionally fantasized about it, in a way he imagines many other Tia do. Seeing the name on Khovu’s fingers fills him with a full-body shudder, a warmth that explodes in his loins and trickles to every inch of his limbs. He craves it; just for a moment, for a night, he wants to know how it feels. Even though he could never hope to best Khovu in a fair fight… he wants to pretend.

“It would be easier if he wanted to knock me up,” Khovu muses.

Stephanivien comments that it’s extremely Male to suggest carrying a baby for nine months is easier than confronting his masculinity.

“Miqo’te kits are delivered at seven moons,” Khovu replies breezily, “but no, I wasn’t expecting to carry them. I’ve got two… no, three ideas about how I could do it, depending on how badly Raha wanted an actual child.”

Stephanivien is watching him sign with rapt attention, eyes wide. “Three ideas?” His gaze flickers down to Khovu’s crotch, currently hidden below the table. Khovu can read his thoughts as easily as his words; Stephanivien has seen him naked, yet he’s still wondering if Khovu has a womb hidden somewhere on his person.

“I’ll share the sketches with you later,” Khovu chuckles. “Unfortunately, Raha doesn’t want kittens, so they’re useless to me at the moment.”

meowdy @meowdy.etheirys.social · 18/06/2026

oh, I've got one of these! here are some unfinished snippets (including my placeholder notes) of a theoretical sequel to chastity.txt. I ended up scrapping the fic for parts to write something different. I was unhappy with these intro scenes, but there's a few moments I did like!

“I want to try something.”

Khovu’s ears perk in interest.

“You can say no,” G’raha says, tamping down on his queasy stomach. Describe where they are.

“Okay,” Khovu agrees immediately. His smile is patient, bemused.

G’raha’s intestines feel like a roiling knot in his gut. “Promise me you’ll refuse if you aren’t comfortable with it.”

“Raha,” Khovu soothes. His eyes glint, teasing. “It might be easier to talk me out of it if you tell me what it is.”

“I,” G’raha says, swallowing around the lump in his throat. “I want you to wear the cage, and… I want to breed you?”

“Oh,” Khovu says, tilting his head. G’raha can see the cogs turning inside it already. “You want to get me pregnant..? No,” he decides, reading something in G’raha’s beet-red face. “You want to breed me. Mark your territory. Assert dominance.”

He’s confident now, deservedly so — he can read G’raha like a book. G’raha can only nod in tacit agreement. “And you think I wouldn’t want to? You’ve fucked me before.” G’raha squirms under his gaze, fights to keep his eyes on Khovu’s face. He could interject, accelerate the torment, but he thinks Khovu will figure it out before G’raha can muster the words. “So — oh. Oh.” Khovu presses his thumb to his lips, raking his appraising gaze up and down G’raha’s form. “G’raha Nunh,” he signs, slowly, dipping his toe in uncharted waters.

G’raha tries to make a gesture of assent. It comes out as a moan.

writing insights from a different, unpublished fic. "cage" appears 21 times.

more unpublished writing insights. "cock" appears 36 times.

fanfic snippet, light lavender text on a purple gradient background:

“Take me,” he pants, swishing and lifting his tail. “I’m ready.”

G'raha Nunh grabs it, tugging it firmly and thrusting his fingers deeper inside. Khovu howls, throat raw as he claws desperately at the sheets. “I decide when you’re ready,” G'raha growls, and Khovu’s cock aches in its cage.

“Please,” Khovu begs — he’s not above begging — “please, Nunh, please fuck me. I’ll be good, I swear — I’ll feel so good for you.”

“My eager little stray,” G'raha Nunh rumbles. Khovu’s heart flutters. He can feel the Nunh’s cock twitching against the back of his thigh. It’s hot and it’s wet and, gods willing, it’s going to be inside him very soon. “Are my fingers not enough for you?”

Khovu could weep. The cage is a vise around his dick; he’s sure he could’ve come already if he could touch it, but his fingers slide uselessly against the metal bars — and G'raha swats his ass every time he tries. “Your cock,” he pleads. “I want your cock inside me. I want you to fill me up and spill inside me, please —”

collage of Khovu's mrrrp noises from my mountain of unpublished WIPs (second one is a little spicy, third is a bonus, non-sleepy mrrrp)

G’raha brushes back the stubborn curls that have fallen over Khovu’s face. Just barely roused by the motion, Khovu makes a muffled chirp into the pillow — G’raha’s pillow — and his face turns towards the touch. G’raha bites his lip, overcome with affection; then, unable to help himself, he tucks his fingers into Khovu’s hair to scratch gently down his scalp.

Mine, G’raha thinks, the urge crashing into him in a powerful wave. He’s on the bed in moments, washcloth and propriety forgotten. His stray stirs, chirping in confusion as G’raha turns him on his back, pries his legs apart, and starts to lick him clean.

He's startled from his thoughts by a thump against his ankle. Khovu, his hands full of a now-dozing Khloe, has thwapped G’raha with his tail. Are you okay? he asks wordlessly, with a tilt of his head and a tiny, soft chirp.

“Feeling up to sleeping now?” G'raha asks. Khovu, in response, stifles a toothy yawn. G'raha smiles and slides a pillow under his head, mindful of the scarf wrapped around his curls. “May I remain here until you do?”

“Your bed,” Khovu replies, his own smile hidden in the pillow, his words slow and clumsy. “Stay as long as you like. Stay forever.”

LRP got me thinking about this fic, so here's a snippet for #wipwednesday

“Oh. No.” G'raha sways on his feet. “No, no, this is all some terrible misunderstanding,” he starts to say, stumbling over himself as he tentatively approaches Khovu. “I did not instruct them to — I had no intention of implying — oh,” he stammers, flushing even deeper as he finally seems to comprehend the device Khovu is holding. His trousers are bulging mightily; the scent of him is dizzying. His arousal smells like the rest of the room — like a Nunh in rut — and Khovu longs, shamelessly, to rub his face against it. “Please, ah, return the apparatus to me?”

“Why?” Khovu teases, flashing a fang-toothed grin as he stretches, luxurious, on G'raha’s furs. “Did you want to put it on me yourself?”

The flush turns a crimson red; G'raha withdraws his expectant hand as if burned. “I — please, behave yourself,” he begs, and Khovu tilts his head, a mockery of innocence. He doesn’t want to behave himself. He wants G'raha Nunh to make him behave.

meowdy @meowdy.etheirys.social · 05/03/2026

been meaning to qrp this for days, but every time I pull up a fic to take excerpts, I end up working on it again 😅 here's a couple (disconnected) snippets from one that's been languishing in my drafts. (nothing nsfw in here, but you can probably guess where it's going 🙂)

“Raha,” he hears — only he doesn’t hear it, he feels it. He feels it whispered over his shoulder, with a familiar, tingling intimacy, and he knows, without understanding how, who is speaking.

“Khovu?” Feeling dizzy, he lets his head rest against the door and closes his eyes. “What — how are you..?”

“Magic,” Khovu replies. There’s a pit of anxiety roiling deep in his stomach — not G'raha’s stomach, but Khovu’s stomach. G'raha gasps in realization.

“Entelechies — this is how an entelechy communicates,” G'raha says, and he feels a flicker of pride, Khovu’s pride in his clever mate. G'raha flushes, and the pride eases into a rush of warm affection. “Can you, ah — feel me? Like I’m feeling you?”

“Yes.” Guilt, tinged with apprehension. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be.” G'raha smiles at the door.

G'raha swallows around a knot in his throat. “You said you can’t remember how to return to your original form?”

“I don’t remember what I should transform into.” A sigh of defeat, soundless and breathless — a hiker faced with a vast chasm and a broken bridge. “What was my shape, my size? What sort of limbs? How many eyes?” G'raha can’t hide a flash of alarm at that last question, and feels Khovu’s pang of sheepish chagrin. “Oh. Did I not have any eyes?”

“You had eyes,” G'raha replies immediately. He wishes that he had something he could squeeze. “You were — you were shaped much like me.” G'raha would not have said so if asked this morning — in many ways, Khovu was as dissimilar from him as a frog from a toad — but G'raha is beginning to realize that he will need to start in very broad strokes. “Two arms, two legs, and a tail. Two eyes, two ears… perhaps if you studied my form, you might begin to remember?”

A hum of agreement — a promising glimpse of tracks on a hunt. “May I touch you?”

whoops, just realized I got this question the wrong way around 😅 I've posted this snippet before, but every time Khovu says something unintentionally/unexpectedly tragic, G'raha gets the overwhelming urge to kiss him.

“In all seriousness,” Khovu relents, finally, and flops onto the sofa beside G'raha. “You’ve worn plenty of risqué outfits for my pleasure, love, and most of them well outside your comfort zone. I think it high time I return the favor.” He drapes an arm over G'raha’s shoulders, fingers toying fondly with the end of his braid. “And who else should I ask to craft it? It’s — it’s nice, in all honesty, working on something for myself.” It’s his turn to be shy now, his gaze darting briefly to his lap — still covered by one of their sofa cushions.

G'raha curls into his side, grounding himself with a deep breath against his chest. “You wear plenty of things you’ve made,” he prompts, thinking of the vast array of magitek devices Khovu carries into battle.

“I make things for… for Khovu Stormclaw,” he says, spelling his Eorzean name. “Warrior of light, defender of Etheirys.” His expression goes soft, and he pauses to trace the line of G'raha’s necklace down the hollow of his throat. “I can scarcely remember the last thing I made for me.”

His eyes are such a deep, melancholy violet; he’s heartbreakingly beautiful. G'raha feels his chest swell near to bursting. “Khovu,” he says, his lover’s name sign. And then he leans up, pressing their lips together in a lingering, aching kiss.

unrelated to the question, I wrote this chapter from both G'raha and Khovu's POV, and it amuses me how Khovu's internal monologue absolutely destroys the pacing. G'raha gets there in a single paragraph, Khovu can't even keep to a single snippet

snippet 1, G'raha's point of view, in red:

The next morning begins with a long, luxurious lie-in, punctuated by another tumble — or two — two and a half — in the sheets. When, after round three, Khovu pulls out to spill into his hand instead of inside, G’raha wails, a humiliating noise that he is immediately grateful Khovu cannot hear.

snippet 2 part 1, Khovu's point of view, in green:

The next morning begins, to Khovu’s utter delight, with a long, luxurious lie-in, punctuated by another tumble — or two — then three — in the sheets. Raha demands that Khovu take him again and again, and Khovu is more than happy to comply, especially when they collapse, sweaty and sated, back into bed to cuddle and doze more of the day away.

The sheets are getting filthy, and he’ll have to launder them later, but he can’t bring himself to mind that now — not with Raha looking at him like this, freckled and gorgeous, crimson hair gleaming in the morning sun as it tumbles over his shoulders in messy waves. The smell of him, of them, is intoxicating, and yet — an old worry starts to scratch at the back of Khovu’s mind, its claws sharper after every climax. He knows he should be safe, he checked not a sennight past, but —

snippet 2 part 2, Khovu's point of view, in green:

When, after round three, he spills into his hand instead of inside, Raha wails. He flushes immediately after, clearly mortified; Khovu smiles at him through a wince, helplessly fond despite his ringing ear, and presses a soothing kiss into his temple.

Khovu takes a potion for contraceptive purposes! I've written about it in the (WIP) chapter 2 of my wolgraha heatfic - snippets below. I've handwaved away STIs; let's just assume those can be cleared with Esuna. :)

Khovu can’t help but smile at Raha’s pout. “You’re wearing me out, love,” he signs as he pads over to his alchemy bench. “Not that I’m complaining, but — I want to double-check, and this might be my last chance for the morning.” He’s been taking the same potion since before the Calamity, with each of Menphina’s turns, to prevent his seed from quickening. It has never failed him before, but — the last time he laid with another Miqo’te like this —

Carefully, he fishes a clean dish from a drawer and deposits a few drops of his spend inside. He waves a quick spell to cleanse his hands, shivering in satisfaction as the magic purges them of a night’s worth of dried fluids. The rest of the ritual is rote, practiced — he tips in a clear, acrid-smelling tincture, swirls the dish to homogeny, then flips an old, scratched sandglass to measure the chimes.

Raha stumbles out of bed as well, tugging a clean tunic — one of Khovu’s, to his immense and absurd satisfaction — like a robe around his otherwise naked body. He sidles behind Khovu’s stool, chin resting on Khovu’s shoulder as he watches the tincture work. Khovu leans back into his warmth, rumbling in approval when Raha squeezes him round the chest.

“I love you,” Raha signs, kissing his cheek.

Khovu’s ears flick in delight. He spins on his stool to face Raha, drawing him close between spread legs. “I love you, too,” he says, as he gently bumps their foreheads together.

“Thank you. For being responsible.” Raha has a rare height advantage; he nuzzles into Khovu hair, and Khovu’s tail lashes proudly.

The tunic drapes haphazardly off G’raha’s shoulder; Khovu traces the constellations of bites and freckles down the line of his neck, tender and indulgent. “Anything for you.”

Raha hugs him, letting the embrace linger, cozy and unhurried, as the sand trickles away. Khovu’s busies his hands petting warm, measured strokes down the smaller Miqo’te’s back and through his hair, basking in their comforting, mingled scents. It’s calming, anchoring; it’s almost enough to take his racing mind off of the alchemy behind him.

Raha nudges him just in time to catch the last grain fall. Relief crashes into him, cool and brisk, at the sight: the tincture has turned a pale, icy blue in its dish, transparent through to the wood below. The potion is working as intended.

He feels ridiculous for worrying. “I suppose I was being overly cautious,” he sighs, glancing apologetically up at his lover.

Raha shakes his head and scratches, reassuring, behind Khovu’s ear. Khovu feels a purr start to kick and sputter deep in his chest.

“No such thing,” Raha assures him. He shifts his weight to one foot, then another, glancing Khovu’s bare form up and down. “… did you say I was wearing you out..?”

Khovu smiles. “I’ve still got a perfectly good mouth.”

Raha blushes and tugs him back to bed.

hello, I have for you today the finest, artisinal catboy pornography. this fic has everything: cock cages! praise kink! two boys hopelessly in love! some previews below with art by the lovely @emptycanvas.bsky.social! read the whole fic here: chastity.txt on ao3 [ #ffxivfic | #wolgraha ]

Fanfic screenshot: chastity.txt, by meowwdy.

Fanfic summary:
Khovu unearths a secret wing in the Great Gubal library. G'raha finds far more than he bargained for within its forbidden tomes.

Quote from the fanfic:
“Cock… cages?” G’raha repeats, ears twitching violently as he glances back at the page. “So they are designed to..?”

“Deny someone access to their cock, yes,” Khovu replies, eyes glinting in amusement.

An excerpt from the fanfic alongside character art. On the left, G'raha Tia, a Miqo'te with fair skin, straight red hair, and red eyes, gives the viewer a big thumbs up. Below him, the text "I consent!" curves around his tail in big, blue block letters.

Fic excerpt:
G'raha tries to scrub the image from his thoughts — it’s a foolish, lecherous desire, and he can’t possibly ask Khovu for this — but his eyes simply won’t tear away from the page. His thoughts race away from him, wrenching free of any attempt to contain them; he imagines Khovu lounging on soft grass, wearing nothing but one of these cages; he imagines Khovu fucking G'raha with his tongue while stroking the bars of the device around his dick; he imagines Khovu in Sharlayan’s market, fully clothed, but with the barest outline of hard metal visible through his trousers…

An excerpt from the fanfic alongside character art. On the right, Khovu, a Miqo'te with brown skin, curly dark hair, and purple eyes, crosses his arms while giving the viewer a thumbs up. Below him, the text "I consent!" curves around him in big, purple block letters.

Fic excerpt:
“I want you to come like this,” G'raha tells him.

Khovu’s eyes go wide, even as G'raha keeps easing him open — three fingers, one knuckle deep now, working towards two. “I — I don’t know if I can —”

G'raha finds that fascinating. Did Khovu expect to pass the entire sennight without a climax? And is it truly impossible for him to orgasm inside the cage?

Well. That, at least, is a hypothesis G'raha can test.

“You can,” G'raha says. “You can do it, for me.”

local catboy just realized gay men exist, more at 11 (#wipwednesday, it's still wednesday in my heart)

G'raha nods reflexively, feeling a gravity in the admission, but he doesn’t truly understand. “Were they close?” he asks, tentative and confused. “Were they..?”

He’s about to ask if they were friends, but the question seems trite and absurd. He ponders the conundrum a moment longer. He knows so little about Estmar — he was a goldsmith, Khovu’s mentor. He was almost certainly Ala Mhigan, and he knew Adalind and her husband well.

Adalind, who saw Khovu out with another boy and assumed he was on a date — seemed to hope he was on a date. Adalind, who spoke fondly of Estmar but never mentioned his spouse, or any of his children — rather, spoke as if Khovu was his child —

Khovu seems to have two adopted parental figures — two fathers — and both of them were men, and one of them — one of them hasn’t been seen since the other died, and —

“Oh,” G'raha says. “Oh.” He flushes red from nose to tail. He feels something warm shifting beneath his hand — Khovu’s thigh. He is squeezing it very hard.

Khovu smiles again, and this time it shatters through his quiet grief; it’s fond, amused; it sets his eyes alight. “They were… complicated,” he says. He sets his hand atop G'raha’s and squeezes it, picks it up. “Let’s get you into something more comfortable.”

I got the G'raha sticker for my water bottle at GWF and it's so cute!! I didn't realize G'raha glowed until yesterday - he looks even cuter lit up, and it was so handy for finding my bottle on the floor of a dark theater 😅

G'raha and Khovu stickers on a dark grey water bottle. G'raha is pumped up with an energy drink in his hand, and Khovu is relaxing on a Chocobo pool float.

The same two stickers. G'raha is glowing in the dark, making him look even more pumped.

@arkinfluffson.bsky.social made me do it (anatomically accurate spider donut)

a spider donut from Dunkin Donuts: a purple donut with chocolate icing "legs", with a chocolate donut hole in the middle acting as the spider body. OP has added eight orange eyes to the donut hole.

more art from @teawtree.bsky.social - an incident at the water park. (Idk how I could explain this joke in just 300 characters.) for the Wall of Light at GWF!

a framed sticker of Khovu Stormclaw, a male Miqo'te, riding a Chocobo. Khovu and the Chocobo are both screaming. in the background, blue lines suggest rushing water. a stylized version of the Fisher job icon and Khovu's name decorate a ribbon at the bottom of the frame.

the same sticker on GATEway FATE's Wall of Light, surrounded by other warriors of light.
