Celestaux and G'raha exchanged rings almost immediately upon getting together, but it wasn't until post-EW that they genuinely got married. They had a small ceremony of their friends, both old and new, on Celestaux's island just before Celestaux left for Tural.

To the upset of like everyone around them, Celestaux and G'raha are both the "I'll sacrifice myself for you" in the relationship and it stresses everyone out

Celestaux and G'raha exchanged rings so soon after getting together in ShB and called themselves married without any sort of ceremony. It wasn't until ~6.5-6.55 that they had a proper ceremony with all their friends/family in attendance before Celestaux left for Tural

Fic title: it was you, it was you, it was you
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary: 
“‘Tis good to see you awake, G’raha Tia,” he said softly, finally getting to refer to him as his true name.

G’raha gaped at him for a moment before a sob tore itself from his throat and tears ran down his face. Celestaux acted on instinct as he strode across the platform and pulled G’raha into his arms. “‘Tis good to be awake,” he sniffled, hesitating for a moment before he leaned into Celestaux’s embrace. “I’m sorry,” he whispered, but Celestaux just shushed him.

Day 6: First Kiss

Some end of ShB fic of Celestaux and G'raha's first kiss that I wrote a couple years ago! I still hold them very gently in my hands.

Celestaux, a duskwight elezen, and G'raha sit next to each other on a bench in the middle of Sharlayan. They are smiling at each other and are holding hands in Celestaux's lap. Celestaux has his grey-white hair down and is wearing gold circular glasses and a green winter coat with a fur-lined hood. G'raha is wearing his usual canon outfit.

On the right there is a screenshot of archive of our own with the title, author, and summary of the linked fic. 

Title: nothin like the brightness in your eyes 
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary: 
Celestaux leaned back in his seat, smiling softly as he watched Krile pull G’raha into the crowd of people, the both of them laughing and smiling and happy. The two of them were happier than he’d seen either of them in months, which eased some of the weight in his chest.

He couldn’t remember what they were celebrating, some festival for Thaliak or perhaps the Twelve as a whole? Regardless, the name of the holiday was one that Celestaux hadn’t recognized the name of, but the aetheryte plaza of Sharlayan was full of music and laughter and food stands and just pure joy. Celestaux could even see some of the researchers and scholars from Labyrinthos mingling around in some of the crowds, talking with the Scions and others that Celestaux didn’t recognize. It was a much needed festival after everything that happened in the last year.

Fic title: in another life
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary:
"Your father, the other one, could you tell me about him?" G'raha asked quietly as he and Gwenette sat at the harbor in Sharlayan. G'raha had his back pressed up against one of the supply boxes that littered the docks while Gwen laid flat on her back, staring up at the clouds in the evening sky and looking like she was trying to make sense of them.

For a few moments, all that could be heard were the gulls above them and the tide rolling in and crashing against the harbor and G'raha wondered if Gwenette had heard him. Perhaps he'd spoken too quietly or worse hadn't even spoken the question that had been gnawing at him aloud.

But then Gwen let out a heavy sigh, one that almost made him feel guilty for asking, and turned her head to rest her cheek against the sun-warmed stone walkways to look over at him. "What do you want to know about him?" she asked quietly, looking both pained and grateful for something to talk about.

Day 3: AU

G'raha has to sit with the knowledge that in another life, he fell in love with the Warrior of Light and the Warrior of Light loved him in return.

Title: battle scars
Author: steamingcupoftea
Summary: 
He tried to shape out the words, but his mouth felt wrong. His tongue. How he hadn’t noticed it until then, he didn’t know, but this unfamiliar body lacked a tongue.

He could cry out, but he wouldn’t be able to say anything intelligible – and maybe that was by design. Maybe this had been Fandaniel’s plan all along, to drop him just far enough away that he’d never be able to make it in time and take away the only other way he’d be able to stop them. To force him to watch his own body-

No, he couldn’t think about that.

A gpose taken pre-graphics update of Celestaux, a duskwight elezen man, dressed in a blue suit staring up at the night sky in wonder while sitting on the ground in front of a campfire. G'raha Tia (looking as he does in the Crystal Tower arc) is in the background looking on at him with a smitten look on his face. They are sitting outside Saint Coinach's Find, blue crystals in the background behind them. Celestaux seems completely oblivious to how enamored G'raha is with him.

Day 1: First Meeting

G'raha was smitten with Celestaux the moment they first spoke to each other. (Celestaux was mostly oblivious to this until that catboy tried to smooch him.)

Oh Celestaux is blushing about it, but also delighted and is pointing excitedly at the screen before he turns to G'raha (who is laughing at Celestaux’s joy) and gives him a chaste kiss.

Celestaux sees her as a friend first! She taught him how to be a dancer and they got to know each other really well, but they would never really consider the other family. I hc Celestaux as being decades younger than Lyna and it's a little awkward for them both

Going to think about Celestaux and G'raha, specifically ShB era them before they got together, instead of work for a bit so prepare for an #idiotslore thread. Have I said most of this before? Probably, but I thinking about them again so please enjoy

Oh I'm so cliche with this and I don't care, but #idiotslore they go out Notebook style, one right after the other within hours of each other. I am very mean to my boys, but not after they're retired. I refuse to have them live in a world without each other, no matter how cliche it is

G'raha is gone. He needs to see everything and Celestaux isn't gonna stop him. G'raha shows back up later with an entire notebook full of observations and vibrating with adrenaline from getting to fight fun monsters while also learning about ancient history

Thinking about Celestaux and G'raha.... Thinking about how much they love each other.... Thinking about them now post DT and how right now things aren't great, but nothing is as dire as it once was. They have space to rest, to breathe, to exist together and with their son...

Oh, kiddo Celestaux and little G'raha would honestly probably get along better than they did as adults in ARR. G'raha is a couple years younger than Celestaux, but Celestaux wouldn't mind. They'd be running around climbing trees and laughing together and having a blast together

Celestaux let out a deep breath and closed his eyes, letting himself relax completely as he held his arms out in front of him. The sound of the nouliths being withdrawn from their holster on his back was a satisfying one, every day it was getting easier to manipulate the aetheric tethers that controlled them. Of course, he still hadn't quite gotten the hang of actually casting any spells with them, but being able to control his weapons was the first step at least. 

Opening his eyes, Celestaux looked at the striking dummy in front of him and did his best to envision the nouliths encircling it, flicking his wrist like Alphinaud had taught him and grinning widely as the nouliths followed his command. The sage weapons danced around the dummy in a perfect circle and another flick of the wrist sent them back to their resting position just behind him. 

"You're getting quite good at handling them," a voice called from behind him, nearly making Celestaux jump.

He'd been so concentrated on controlling his new weapons that he hadn't even heard G'raha walk down the dock towards him. Still, though, Celestaux gave himself credit for holding tight to the aetheric tethers and keeping his nouliths in their resting stance, even with the surprise. 

"Still have no idea how to do any actual shielding or healing with them, but I can control them," Celestaux agreed, turning around to look at his husband and enjoying the quiet hum as the weapons followed behind him. 

G'raha just smiled up at him and nodded. "That's the first step. And your control of them has improved greatly the last few days." 

Celestaux just hummed, glancing behind him for a moment and inspecting the size of one of nouliths. He couldn't help the mischievous smile that worked his way onto his lips as he turned back towards G'raha.

He couldn't help the mischievous smile that worked his way onto his lips as he turned back towards G'raha.

A controlled flick of his wrist sent just one of the nouliths across the dock towards G'raha, stopping just below his chin, while a slight raise of Celestaux’s hand had the noulith rising with it, just barely tilting G'raha's chin up. "I think I have a strong handle on them now," he agreed, grinning widely while a light flush coming to the tips of his ears as he watched G'raha go slack-jawed.

He could see G'raha's mouth snap shut and his pupils were blown wide as he stared back at Celestaux, a smirk of his own coming to his lips as his tail thrashed behind him. 

"Yes, I'd say so," he agreed, licking his lips. "Now, why don't you show me what else you have a strong handle on while Maashtaya is with Krile for the next couple hours."

Celestaux chuckled and held his concentration, dropping his down slowly so the noulith fell from  G'raha's chin and then flicking his wrist back until it, and the other three, returned to the sheathe on his back. "That would be my pleasure, my love," he said, closing the distance between them in only a couple long strides and leaning down to press a kiss to G'raha's lips.

Oops, thought too hard about improper use of nouliths and it turned into a messy drabble lmao. Celestaux can be smooth when he wants to be and G'raha is caught off guard every time

Both myself and Celestaux thought absolutely nothing about G'raha in the CT raids. Which was hilarious because my friends shipped them right out the gate and I was just like 🤷 about him. I didn't plan on shipping Celestaux with anyone and then ShB happened and that damn catboy...

Celestaux and G'raha exchanged rings after they returned to the Crystarium at the end of ShB and basically referred to themselves as married after that - no ceremony or anything needed. But there was a couple months where they paused that when G'raha returned to the Source

Oh I've written those fics!

For Celestaux and G'raha, their first kiss was during a story event, right at the end of Shadowbringers proper. It was awkward, they were both nervous and had too much adrenaline and were crying, but it was perfect:
