Fray stands in the bathroom, wrapped in a towel and arms folded across his chest. Text is in the background, but it's nothing coherent and just racing, anxious, and self-deprecating thoughts. He's mostly scolding himself for wanting Sid and how much trouble he is.

The scene has changed to Fray without the towel, on his hands and knees, moving towards Sid on the couch in front of a fire. Sid's right arm is across his own waist and expression isn't discernible from this angle. His prosthetic arm seems to be dangling off the side of the couch, though still attached to him.

Four images overlay Ishgard in the background and a night sky. The first has Fray's eyes wide in realisation. He thinks "Wait... Something is not right." The second panel is Sid's prosthetic hand gripping the couch. Fray's thoughts continue with "He grips the cushion so hard that I think I heard it puncture." The third is Sid not meeting his eyes, a slight frown. He looks uncomfortable. Fray's thoughts continue with "That is not the face of someone who wants this." The fourth panel is Fray's enthusiasm having swiftly turned to guilt and he looks off to the side, thinking "You knew better."

A textless shot of Fray instead curling up on Sid, unwilling to push any further. It seems Sid has relaxed, bringing the prosthetic back up to rest on the couch. His other hand rests on Fray's back and his tail curls around his waist. His eyes are closed as if he's resting now.

No one ever said this was easy.

#DRKafterdark for some nudity.

The Fray in the front is dressed in a skimy bunny costume. He has both of his hands up in surprise, looking concerned to the side. Elanor!Fray presses up against him from behind, holding two decorated eggs up in front of his chest with an amused grin.

Happy (belated) Easter!

#DRKafterdark

Fray half reclines in front of the fire, only wearing his smalls and a body chain. His legs are wide and he's giving the viewer a look. He's done being subtle.

Alternate of the first shot but with just the body chain.

Not one for subtlety after a point.

#DRKafterdark

If you think I would not do it again...

I don't think I've put him in garter-belts, but Sol9!Fray is close enough with that leather belt squish.

#DRKafterdark

The Forgotten Knight inn room. Fray straddles a pillow, appearing to be grinding against it for stimulation. He doesn't have a shirt on, but still has his smalls, probably for deniability.

A closer up. The Forgotten Knight inn room. Fray straddles a pillow, appearing to be grinding against it for stimulation. He doesn't have a shirt on, but still has his smalls, probably for deniability.

Loosely inspired by something I saw on my junkdrawer account.

#DRKafterdark

Fray being a provocative shit and posing in a sexualised manner with his body in an S-shape being leaned over slightly with his chest out and shoulders back. One hand rests on where his thigh meets his butt.

Found an outfit for S9!Sid (pending approval from Peanut) that will outshine this shitebird's attempts at being provocative.

#Sol9DRK #DRKafterdark

[I thought I posted this but couldn't find it under the Sol9DRK tag.]

A recreation of the "And so they were both bottoms." meme but with both Frays sitting on the FK bed. Left Fray looks like they're trying to explain something, mild annoyance on their face while the right one folds his arms, looking closed off and irritated. A text box says "And so... They were both switches* with major control and trust issues."

Sidurgu sits on the bed, arms wrapped arm Fray's waist and tail around his leg. Fray rests one hand on his head and seems to be biting back a noise with the other.

Sid about to bite Fray's side.

To be hoarded like a priceless treasure.

Thank you @mandapanda.etheirys.social for these. She knew exactly what I wanted to do and did it way better!

With @sidurgu-orl.bsky.social 's Sid.

Old but still good.

#shitebirding #DRKafterdark

Unnamed AscianAU Fray has untucked his shirt, leaving it open while he starts to try and take off his pants in front of the FK fire. What more do you want from me? I wanted to look at him and feel weird putting him in boudoir poses.

What do you want me to say?

#DRKafterdark Still unnamed Ascian AU.

#DRKafterdark thoughts

It was something that I briefly yapped at oomf last night, but there's something profoundly endearing about Fray being so flustered about if when he's trying to sleep with Sid for the first time, but Sid takes his time looking at his body instead.

Xaela Fray lays in the sun in a two piece swim suit and looking at the camera. Where's Sid? Worry about it. Do I mean "don't worry about it"? I said what I said.

#FrAUra #DRKafterdark

Reading some of oomfs posts today and I gotta make more #DRKafterdark content. TF you mean, content warning for transmen.

S9!Fray and S9!Ephie in Fray's apartment. Fray kneels behind Ephie, dragging his tongue along her right nipple while caressing the left. His right hand is between Ephie's legs. Ephie looks like she's close or at least with a hazy pleasured expression.

#DRKafterdark #Sol9DRK

(I don't have any excuses. I just wanted S9!Fray to be intimate with his girlfriend at the time.)

I wish to have a chat, creator mine.

#shitebirding #DRKafterdark (if you squint)

Black and white drawing of Solution 9 AU Fray sits astride Sid's lap with clinging with one arm around his neck/shoulder while the other strokes one of Sid's dicks. Sid's tail coils around Fray while his right hand pulls at Fray's hair.

B/W #Sol9DRK from @lucezozzerie.bsky.social ! Thank you!

#DRKafterdark

#DRKafterdark Thank you for the idea of StrApp re: S9 strap tech and sensation being integrated with a regulator and application.

God. Where is my mind today?

Fray blinked, trying to process what the hells the question was asking at first before chuckling and setting the tomestone down. "Truly? This is something that is tracked? Should I be doing this, I am only focused on finishing before getting caught. To count-- I could not."

#DRKafterdark

#DRKafterdark (at lunch time?)

Fray nearly dropped his tomestone with a sound similar to a muted yelp after reading the question.

Warmth spread across his cheeks and down the back of his neck. "Tail-- accidentally-- betwixt-- sleeping." He muttered, refusing to elaborate. "Do not tell-- him."

Sol9 Fray lays on his stomach in a provocative position with one arm down on the bed and the other just under his chin. He's winking at the camera. God help us all if normal AU Fray ever gains confidence.

#Sol9DRK #DRKafterdark

An semi-transparent image of Fray overlaid onto a post from muzzlekiss that says: [flirting] if you put your hand on my throat you can watch my brain kick down several gears like a prey animal that knows it's done running.

It has been one long fucking day in a series of long fucking days in a series of long fucking weeks. Which means #shitebirding and #DRKafterdark hours.

I'll blame @winter.etheirys.social (affectionate) for making a thread of Lav overlays and making me want to do my own.

Do not let us have euphemisms...

#DRKafterdark #shitebirding

Fray's hand immediately moved to ensure the half-mask appropriately covered his features, not meeting anyone's eyes and trying to keep his thoughts from wandering. "I was-- not aware there was a name-- for such an act, let alone so many."

#DRKafterdark

Fray burst into laughter, trying not to look over at Sidurgu. "Are you trying to get my arse thrown?"

#DRKafterdark

Thinking about this one as I'm about to sleep.

Not even specifically the #DRKafterdark material but his expression. The devotion-drunk look.

I wonder how many times he's looked at Sid like this without the guy even knowing.

Fray is sandwiched between Haurchefant and Sidurgu with one leg over Haurchefant's knee and the other between Sidurgu's leg. Haurchefant's middle and ring fingers are inside Fray while Sidurgu's claws are slightly digging into his thigh. Fray seems overwhelmed/like he's enjoying himself with one hand brought up to his chest and it appears that he's making some sort of noise. Sidurgu's mouth and tongue is on Fray's nipple. This is probably a new sensation for Fray as Sidurgu's claws would become problematic if inside. God I fucking hate alt-texting for NSFW gpose.

Yup. More NSFW / #DRKafterdark material.

Kept thinking how to demonstrate the difficulties that Fray and Haurchefant would have when trying to be intimate.

That Sid would have to be there to keep Haurchefant safe and Fray calm. I realised that would take more panels than I had the braincell for

#DRKafterdark

#Sol9DRK AU Fray with a distortion in front of his groin to conceal. It's a text sent to Sol9!Sidurgu with a "Do you want to know what's under the distortion? Come over." He's as subtle as a freight train.

Evie sits in a lace lingerie mod that I think I stole from Manda.

Current Fray lays on a casket in nothing but his name day and smiling at the camera. Blue flowers and lighting are in the background, similar to Fray's flower from 80 quest.

#Sol9DRK AU Evie leans against a pillar in one of the Solution 9 apartments, taking off one red heel. She's wearing a latex version of the lacy lingerie from the other image and has thigh high stockings.

I am sorry, Fray and Evie for putting your whole business out there, but it's for a good cause.

Very much #DRKafterdark and NSFW (in case any have it muted on my side)
