Spoilers Spoilers Spoilers! for the end of Endwalker (heh). Below the cut is a lil drabble. Angst, G'raha/WoL, Canon Compliant.
I was having feelings and ideas, and finally I just had to write them down.
Omicron Base, Ultima Thule.
"Raha, wait!" you cry just as he's stepping towards the omicron. He pauses and is still turning back to you when you grab his face in your hands and kiss him. The sound that G'raha makes can only be described as a squeak as he freezes beneath your hands. A moment later he's sighing and melting into the kiss.
The twins may be saying something, possibly yelling, but if they are you can't hear them. You're too focused on him, his lips against yours, his cheeks beneath your hands, his hands finding purchase on your body as you kiss him. You kiss him and kiss him and kiss him with all the love and fear and desperation you have bursting in your chest. You kiss him for as long as you can before you eventually have to slowly pull back. You open your eyes to see him dazed and blushing furiously. Its adorable, and kind of gratifying.
You keep holding his face even as you ease away, eyes locked on his. Gorgeous red that had taken him from you, only to then bring him back. You watch him as you breathe in the small space between you for just a few more moments. You try to savour them as they slip through your fingers.
"Uh you-- and then I-- But you-- I didn't think--" He fumbles for words, obviously wanting to ask what brought that on. You lean forward to press your forehead to his, closing your eyes against the pain in your heart.
"I promise. I promise okay? I'm promising, and I keep my promises. No matter what it takes, I'll keep this one. So just--" A sob kills the words in your throat. You're crying. You shouldn't be crying. You'd wanted to send him off with a smile. A smile better suits a hero. "Just wait for me, okay?"
Hands coming up to yours, he eases you back gently. You open your eyes as your hands fall to hang interlocked between you. He's looking at you. He looks so gentle, so beautiful, so fond. Your heart squeezes in your chest as he smiles at you. "I'll wait," he says. "So don't take too long, alright?" A wet laugh escapes as you pull away, forcing yourself to let him go. His hands tighten on yours for a second before reluctantly loosening and slipping away. Sniffling, you scrub your arm over your face. You look at him, drinking in the sight of him, whole and healthy and alive, and you smile.
"I'll see you soon," you promise.
"I know you will."
This is so much like what happened at the crystal tower when he sealed it and its killing you. You remember begging him not to go, that you'll find another way, just please don't do this. But he felt he had a destiny to fulfill, and was convinced that you'd be alright without him. He'd sealed himself in that damned tower, and when you saw him again-- Well. There's so much more you want to say to him, but you can't drag this out any longer. You'll tell him once he's back. You will.
You watch as he steels himself and turns. He walks up to the omicron and what he says pierces your already bleeding heart. You want to scream as the dark fog of dynamis swirls around him, hiding him from view, but choke it back. Then it fades away and he's gone. Moments later, luminous crystal bursts forth, shimmering and beautiful and horrible. Of course he would become crystal. How could it have been anything else?
You take a moment. You breathe, bracing yourself against the heartache and the fear and every other emotion you can't afford to feel right now, locking it all away inside you. Finally you look at the twins. Alisaie looks just as upset as you are, and you can tell its as much on your behalf as her own. The sympathy in Alphinaud's eyes has you turning away before he can say anything, looking for the start of the crystal road G'raha had sacrificed himself for.
"Let's go. I don't want to keep him waiting."

stand tall for me
G'raha Tia/F!WoL (named)
"I hope I'm not keeping you from your rest.." she mumbled softly, wringing her hands together in front of her as G'raha looked her up and down. "N-no, not at all!" the Seeker replied, lips curling into a soft smile once the initial surprise of her visit had worn off. "Would you like to come in?" Aemyra sheepishly looked in on his room, glancing at the books strewn across the desk and stacked beside the bed before stepping in and letting her hands fall to her sides with a grateful nod. Behind her G'raha pushed the door shut, stepping around to her front and then over towards the table as he spoke. "Now," he murmured, picking up one of the books open upon the table and slipping a bookmark between the pages as he slipped it shut. "What can I do for you?"

Silenced
G'raha Tia/F!WoL (Unnamed)
"Say something." The first words G'raha whispered in the seconds after he had whispered the words of the Sharlayan silencing spell to her, his hand off the tome so the spell didn't take. It had taken him some time to find the incantation, and some time to get the intonation of the words right, and he had been as hesitant as ever to use the spell upon her.. ...But it had been her insistence that had him whispering the words out in the first place. Now she stood before him, her hands clasped before her as she gazed at him expectantly. "Say something... before I begin.." he whispered out softly, fingers dancing over the tome in his palm. "You are certain you want this?"
