FFXIVWrite2022 Prompt 30: Sojourn
When it’s discovered that his lover’s wife is not dead, Edmont reflects on how his happiness is always fleeting and temporary, never really there to stay.
FT a ship I RARELY talk about, Edmont and his wholesome relationship with Rukia’s dad, Khadagh Oronir!
Note: Annalise is the name I’ve given to Haurchefant’s mother bc SE won’t give us a name gfdi... =_=
~~~
“By Azim’s mercy, Hisana is alive! Please come with me my dear stars, I worry for the truth of these claims.”
Edmont couldn’t help but take a breath as he waited outside of the room that kept Lady Hisana, Rukia’s mother and his sweet Khadagh’s wife, who was believed to be dead for almost a decade.
He sighed as he leaned on his cane, he was going to support Khadagh no matter what, because he knew he loved him, but he also knew that it was very likely he was going to lose yet another piece of happiness if Khadagh decided to return to his wife.
Is this how you felt, Annalise? When despite the fact that I loved you and wanted to raise our son equally as my other son I had to return to my wife and send you away?
Edmont felt tears start to build even as he restrained them. He would not cry here. He would accept Khadagh’s decision, regardless of what it was. He would mourn his sojourn happiness later, regardless of how he wished his happiness would be not so fleeting and temporary.
It’s just desserts isn’t it? Edmont wondered. After what I did to my wife and the woman I loved, and to my family...I deserve to be second before another love...
“Edmont? My darling look at me!”
Edmont blinked, how long was he lamenting over his woes that he didn’t notice Khadagh in front of him?
“Oh, forgive me, I was simply lost in thought.” Edmont explained slowly as he coughed.
“It’s alright dearest.” Khadagh soothed as he cupped his face. “Please come in and sit with us, Hisana wants to meet you.”
Edmont blinked. “She...wishes to meet me? What for?”
“My lost moon wants to meet the man that has made me happy in her absence. Please?” Khadagh pleaded, and Edmont couldn’t resist his warm brown eyes.
“Alright...” He agreed as he stood with his cane as support and held Khadagh’s hand. He smiled and pressed a kiss to his knuckles as he led him inside...

orym FINALLY accepting the fact hes in love with dorian because will told him to be his own person is currently KILLING ME.
like, obviously orym crushing on dorian has always been a thing but as stated before,, orym was extremely shy about those romantic feelings -- and now we know (probably) why!! its because he felt guilty for it! but he doesn't have to feel that way anymore, and even his late husband told him to go get some. i literally cannot WAIT to see what happens next.

I don’t think you guys understand
I’m still so giddy about Buck and Tommy.
Buck, a large man who’s conveniently attractive and considered a fuck boy.
Buck who was kissed by another man.
Buck who kissed another man.
Buck who kissed another man with such hunger, no shame, so much want
Buck who gets to have this beautiful coming out arc
And don’t we all deserve that? To be loved so wholly by our family that all we feel is free and happy?
To have a best friend who smiles with so much pride when we come out?
To have friends in our corner who are so happy for us?

just going to vomit more thoughts on this:
“do you remember our first kiss?” gojo asks sweetly, cradling your face in his palm so you couldn’t turn away from his tender gaze. his eyes bathe you in sparkling azure, cooling off the heat burning your cheeks from the question.
“kiss?” you reply with an upturn of your brows, your innocent and confused expression only making him smile affectionately at you. “we’ve...we’ve never...”
“I was six and you were nine,” he explains, taking another small step to close the tiny fraction of space separating you both, his free hand moves to your hip to rub soft circles against you. “we were all riding our bikes, and I fell flat on my face trying to do a silly little trick. I busted my lip-”
your knees tremble feeling his breath fan over your skin, your fingers seeking out the fabric of his soft white tee for support to keep yourself standing straight, but your eyes naturally flutter close from the gentle contact he makes.
“you made sure I was alright before I went home,” he whispers, your heart pounding heavily to the sound of his deep voice as he presses his thumb down against the corner of your parted mouth, “and you gave me a tiny kiss right here”
