I mean, he's primarily written by a woman, the way men tend to write female characters. I say turnabout's fair play, in this case.

So only females can write about females and males can only write about males? I'm not sure that's a fair assessment when other male characters like Thancred, Alphinaud, and Estinien are on point.
G'raha's a male character, but written to fit the "heroine" archetype. I'm saying he's along the same lines as, say, Matoi from Phantasy Star Online 2, down to not allowing responses like, "Down girl, please. I see you as a daughter." Our own Alisaie acts the same way, too, actually.
I do acknowledge there's some discomfort in being fawned on by someone you're not into, but there's nothing inherently wrong with his character type.

1. This.
2. G'raha's behavior is completely appropriate given the context of it. He's just gone through 100 years of pain, suffering, and the tormenting idea that the future he envisioned will happen *regardless* of what he does. And then here you come, a beacon of light (or darkness in this case) and rather than let him sacrifice himself to save you, you fight *with him*, you treat him as your equal, and you give him a future he could *never* have imagined. Now he gets to fight alongside you, safe and secure in the knowledge that whatever comes next won't be that horrible future he saw. If he wants to hang off my arm and give me puppy dog eyes and flick his ears at me, I'll let him. Heck, I'll encourage it - because he's happy.
But maybe that's just my WoL's personality bleeding into mine. She views G'raha similarly to how she viewed Haurchefant - gentle romanticism.
