akhos with a new blade
pairing: akhos x gn!reader
tags: spoiler for chap. 3, mentions of death, mentions of obrona
after obrona's death, akhos wasn't sure if he would ever get over it
he swore to himself that he wouldn't awake a new blade, so he wouldn't have to suffer like this again
and yet here you were, created in a moment of weakness and desperation
you were nothing like obrona
you didn't look like her, didn't sound like her, didn't fight like her
perhaps that was just what akhos needed
someone new! someone to start over with…
he was hesitant towards you at first, sometimes keeping his distance and sometimes clinging to you
he didn't know what he wanted and it showed
he never told you about obrona, but you quickly found out from the other members of torna, that you weren't his first blade
once you learned about what he went through, you decided to help him get over his loss
he was your driver after all and you wanted to see him happy!
you started to spend more time with him, to get to know him better and slowly akhos became more comfortable around you
he hadn't forgotten about obrona and he probably never would, but each day her loss started to hurt less and less
and it was all thanks to you and your support…
