    Summary

    The problem, Kaveh decides, wasn’t just that Alhaitham had no range, even when the similarities were so close all he’d have to do was change his name. It was that Nilou somehow expected him to fix it. Performance chemistry was not something you could brute-force by proximity and stubbornness and sheer willpower. Kaveh has already spent a full semester proving that Alhaitham was biologically immune to charm.

    Nilou rubbed her temples.

    “Okay, look. You’re actors—well, one of you is. You’re meant to create illusions. Maybe just… pretend you don’t hate each other? And then hate each other when it calls for it.”

    “We don’t hate each other,” Kaveh snapped.

    Alhaitham, beside him, nodded agreeably. “I simply find him taxing.”

    In Sumeru University’s production of Barefoot in the Park, Kaveh’s original scene partner breaks a leg. Literally. His insufferable roommate steps up to the plate. Only: they have zero chemistry and turn to alternatives, i.e, method acting.

    But it’s fine, they’re adults. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    “If this occurrence is so fleeting, why does it trouble you so deeply to hurt someone who has already hurt you?”

    “Because,” Aventurine said, anger sharpening the edges of his words, “He’s eleven, alright? He’s eleven years old and he just wants to see his sister again.” Ratio’s expression flickered, a terrible pitiless sorrow turning his mouth. That it was for him made Aventurine burn with shame. “And anyway, he fucked with my head,” Aventurine finished, rather lamely. “I know my enemy and he wasn’t a child.”

    Summary

    “You’ll gamble away your entire life ten times over without batting an eye…”

    “Yeah, well.” Aventurine laughed briefly, helplessly, as the look in Ratio’s eyes shifted towards one of growing comprehension— and maybe even a bit of flabbergasted awe. “Even I have my limits, I guess. Don’t, ah… read too much into it.” As if that would keep Ratio from immediately formulating whatever theories he pleased.

    Am I truly so precious to you? He could read the question in Ratio’s face. His bafflement. It was warranted, whatever questions Ratio might have of him. But he didn’t really want to talk right now.

    Moaning, on the other hand… now that was on the table.

    Summary

    Drink this to sober up. Please carefully review my attached documents regarding our unplanned sexual encounter last night. I believe I have touched on all important points. I will not field follow-up questions before 6.30p.m., so do not try.

    Summary

    “Have I ever told you,” Kaveh says, warm breath ghosting against Alhaitham’s neck, “how much I love your scent?”

    “You have,” Alhaitham murmurs. “Just now.”

    “Well I’m saying it again,” Kaveh says, pressing a chaste kiss to his neck. “I love your scent.”

    Alhaitham rolls his eyes, hiding his smile in the other’s hair.

    (Alternatively, home is... )
