During his first visit to the Spagyrics when getting himself oriented in the Crystarium as a new arrival, Y'sato came across a distressing sight.
A young mystel lad, recently succumbed to his wounds. Wounds he sustained from a Sin Eater...

This is all spurred by what Halmarut and Calyx said in 7.5, what Halmarut showed him with Zenos scythe
This is a man with lots of anger. One who is sick of Ascian influence and their shenanigans. Of how damn persistent they are
He dared hope his travails were over, but now⬇️

Y'sato's most iconic outfit is his DT fit seen in the 2 first pictures, mainly cause it stars a lot in many of my VN's and gpose.
Other iconic ones are his SHB fits also used in VN's (pic 3 - 6) EW (pic 7 and 8) and his Arcadion Champion look in the final 2 pictures.

There were many lost loved ones that came to mind when G'raha asked him this. Haurchefant for one was one strong contender.
But at the end there is one person Y'sato's heart aches to be reunited with more than any other.
His mother.

My WoL Y'sato hails from Thanalan. His home village lies nestled between rocks and sand in a place between west and south Thanalan. Somewhere off the map.
While he was bullied by his fellow tribe members due his father being a Keeper, he was raised by his loving mother, Y'tchakha.

Aetheryte travel is a complicated thing. Despite possessing more anima than the regular person, Y'sato only uses aetherytes when things are urgent or his presence is requested with haste.
He also prefers to be in the presence of an aetheryte for the safest and most stable travel.

I feel like sharing some of my Satoraha songs. This first one I listened to while writing Shatter and encapsulates Y’sato’s emotions really well when G’raha sealed himself away.
G’raha is his sun, his home.
The Sun will rise again. Return to Y’sato’s side.

Y'sato is strong, willing to give it all even in the face of death. A hard lesson he learned during his exile. Is how he survived his battle with his first primal, Ifrit, although by the skin of his teeth
If not for Thancred's assistance he would have surely died right then and there.

I've probably not gone as crazy with G'raha as many others, and while I write canon compliant my own interpretation of him and touch ofc inevitably bled in.
And mainly through his dynamics with Y'sato as that alone affects a lot of his perspective, ⬇️

Thanks to suggestions from @avirael.bsky.social I've perfected Y'sato's Lightwarden bad end AU form.
In this bad end, Y'sato... is gone. This is but a mindless monster, undead in a way that looks like him, a mockery of him. A fallen angel. The Lightwarden, Agape.
Norvrandt is doomed...

I can't pick just one theme song for Y'sato. He has a handful depending on where he is in the story and many songs depending on scenes as well spanning from ARR to DT.
But if I had to pick one at the moment it would be this one. I've listened to it a lot lately

Y'sato does snore, but is a soft, gentle thing. It highly depends on his position too as well as how exhausted he is. He tends to snore when lying on his back.
G'raha doesn't mind, usually.
And if it gets too bothersome a gentle nudge usually fixes it.

Day 28: Fear
Y’sato has no love for Morbols. In truth he has great reason to fear them. So when he first laid eyes on the strain found in Garlemald he almost froze to the spot.
One singular thought flitted through his mind in that moment.
Why do they need so many mouths!?
