Summary
Cyno can taste lies.
It's a very useful ability that has served him well as the General Mahamatra but it is a constant reminder that everyone lies. Everyone but Alhaitham. He's the exception, the only exception, to the rule Cyno has learned to live with. When Alhaitham speaks to him it is always the truth.
Until one day it isn't.

Summary
As Acting Grand Sage, Alhaitham has been enjoying a deepening friendship with Cyno. Work is going as smoothly as it can be -- until Alhaitham notices something very strange. His vision seems to be acting up every time he's around Cyno, causing plants and flowers to grow randomly. Alhaitham begins to research his strange ailment, with Cyno only getting increasingly concerned as time passes. Perhaps what Alhaitham needs isn't a stack of books, but the advice of his friends?

Summary
Tighnari and Cyno aren't blind to Kaveh's affection towards Alhaitham, and they decide they wouldn't mind bringing a fourth into their little-found family. But Alhaitham's walls are more than just figurative, and they'll have to work hard to draw the scribe from his uneasy shell. If only Alhaitham could get out of his own head long enough to listen to them.

Summary
Alhaitham sinks his hands into the tangle of eels and scritches randomly. How long was he out for? His avatar still needs its rest. It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for him to have slept a few days away. The eels wriggle happily under his hands. Underground as they are, it's hard to assess the time of day.
It's fine either way. Being notoriously treacherous, it's not uncommon for travelers to take much longer than expected to complete expeditions in the desert. He can always say he was waylaid by wenuts. It's not even a lie.

Summary
Ever since Alhaitham’s successful strategy ended with the rescue of their Archon and an overthrow of the current Akademiya hierarchy, he’s been having more and more interactions with other people.
Though he’s not sure how he feels about it, socializing with people who actually seem to like him is kind of nice. But caring about what they think of him gets exhausting.
Or: Exploring Alhaitham's new friendships and how he deals with each of them. Starts from when Alhaitham is still the Acting Grand Sage.
