male wol is gay and canonically with g'raha. female wol is gay and canonically with y'shtola. this is my truth.

my problematic guilty pleasure is taking f/m w0lshtola fanfics and changing all the pronouns to she/her and replacing all references to the male wol with my own

FFXIV Write - Swap Edition - Day 6: Cup of Tea

Two months after the return of the Ragnarok...

“Your tea, milady, Archon.” Kal’istae glanced up and gave the waiter an absent nod as he set the tray down beside the Au Ra. He smiled at her and retreated even as she returned to studying the papers Y’shtola had brought her.

Y’shtola watched her with those pale crystal eyes, chin propped up on one hand as she studied the other woman from across the table. “You’re looking peaked,” she finally murmured in her throaty voice. “Maybe you should rest.”

Exhaling, Kal’istae put the papers down and instead reached for the tea pot, pouring herself and the miqo’te their cups. As she set it back down, Y’shtola reached out to doctor the drinks the way each woman preferred. “Just a bit of a sour stomach,” the Warrior finally shrugged. “Probably just the last of those drugs you kept forcing down my throat burning their way out of my system.”

The sorceress sniffed. “Well, if you would teach your aether to stop devouring every source it comes across, we would have been able to use more magic and less medicine.”

“Because, you know, I encourage it to do so,” Kal’istae replied dryly as she lifted her cup from the tray and brought it to her lips. Before she could sip, however, the scent hit her and instantly curdled in her stomach. “Ugh! I thought we ordered Ul’dahn Black.” She set the tea down with a sharp clink against the table.

Frowning, Y’shtola lifted her own cup and sniffed at it. “It is Ul’dahn Black,” she said slowly, taking a sip. “And it tastes fine.”

Huffing, Kal’istae slid her cup towards Y’shtola with a faint shiver of porcelain that caused a discordant ripple of sound. “Yours, maybe.”

Obligingly, the miqo’te raised the Au Ra’s cup to her nose. “No, it smells the same,” she argued. Crystal eyes narrowed as she studied the other woman. “Perhaps we erred in releasing you so soon.”

“Don’t even think about it,” the Warrior growled, out of sorts. Raising her hand to summon the waiter, she glared at her friend across the table. “I am not taking one more day of ‘rest’. I’ll go mad.”

Y’shtola had to concede the point; managing to keep her in bed as long as they had had been a herculean effort by all of the Scions and the healers of Sharlayan. Still, she didn’t like the idea that the Au Ra’s stomach was giving her trouble. Given the nature of her unique disability, she needed to eat often and eat well, or her aetherpool risked looking for outside sources to keep itself stoked.

She watched as Kal’istae ordered a carafe of water, showing nothing of her discontent to the waiter. She held on to that determinedly polite smile until the man left, but it swiftly fell away, leaving nothing but an irritable scowl. Cautiously, she lifted the water and sniffed at it. She made a sour face, but drank half of the glass in one gulp. “Plain water,” she muttered. “Ugh.”

Y’shtola couldn’t resist. “Not your cup of tea?” The Au Ra’s lavender-edged glare only made her smile grow wider. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t resist. Let’s finish looking over these papers I found, then we can get you back to the manor and Cook can make you something to soothe your stomach.”

Kal’istae grunted, but conceded with an impatient gesture. Y’shtola bent to the papers, but made a note to have a quiet word with Ameliance later.

She wasn’t entirely certain the medicines were to blame for the Warrior’s sour stomach.
