    Summary

    The blond had come into his life like a ray of sunlight that makes it impossible to keep sleeping. He blinded him with his light, with the way he carried himself.

    Kaveh was everything he wasn’t—sentimental, artistic, profoundly altruistic. He was his mirror, a counterpart that had stunned him, surprising him like if he was something worth studying, something to decipher.

    Kaveh dragged him out of a void Alhaitham hadn’t even known was there.

    A short story about Alhaitham and his feelings.

    Summary

    Alhaitham’s noise sensitivity is usually manageable.

    Until a fungus incident ruins his headphones, and the back-up pair is in for repairs. A trip through the bustling market leaves him frayed, and even home offers little relief from Kaveh’s project noises and a neighborhood party.

    When Alhaitham finally snaps, it’s up to Kaveh to realize something’s wrong, fix the headphones, and unknowingly bring him comfort in more ways than one.

    Or, a mundane day with an autistic scholar and a 'noisy' architect

    Summary

    Kaveh corrects Alhaitham on a physics problem. In response, Alhaitham’s body activates its own branch of classical mechanics.

    As Kaveh went on to recite both theorem and equation from memory, Alhaitham went abruptly silent.

    Partly because he didn’t have a response.

    Mostly because his physical state now suddenly matched the 'Rigid Bodies' section of the textbook.

    Summary

    The truth of the matter is, Kaveh has no idea how to read Alhaitham. He prides himself on being an expert at understanding people, his empathetic heart lending him the capacity to relate deeply with those around him (oftentimes to his detriment). But with Alhaitham, there is nothing for him to read; no clues from his cool expression for him to grasp. The man appears stoic all the time even during their petty bickering.

    Honestly, when was the last time Kaveh has seen the man do anything except smirk or frown? Does Alhaitham feel happiness? Has he ever seen the man laugh?

    Kaveh's mind is drawing a blank on the latter and it...bothers him deeply.

    --
    Kaveh devises a plan to get Alhaitham to smile by being aggressively nice to the man (and also maybe if he makes Alhaitham happy, he can score a discount on his rent or something). Alhaitham thinks Kaveh ate some mind-altering mushrooms and is, understandably, confused and mildly afraid.

    Summary

    Kaveh is on his way home when he encounters a very strange mushroom following him home. Ever the altruist, Kaveh takes pity on the poor thing and gives it a pat on the head. One thing leads to another, and suddenly he finds himself coated in a dusting of spores with his hands down his pants outside his house, given specific instructions to not interact with Alhaitham.

    Do either of them heed this warning? No. They don't.

    Summary

    “From what I remember, you went to the desert to study some new form of ancient dialect in some half-destroyed ruins.”

    Alhaitham, despite being aware of the unspoken question, just shrugs. And then he says, “Yes, I still did that.”

    “And yet you also got…married.” The way Tighnari says the word married makes it very clear that he has many questions

    (or: alhaitham marries for tax benefits and to clear a debt and then somehow falls in love)

    Summary

    “Excuse me. May I sit here?”

    Al-Haitham looks up. He watches the student’s red eyes darken with recognition. Unfortunately, Al-Haitham recognizes him too.

    “Would you leave if I said ‘no’?” Al-Haitham asks.

    And just like that, the student is sliding into the seat, flipping up the desk and pulling his tablet out. He shoots Al-Haitham a glare just as the professor starts lecturing.

    (Al-Haitham, Kaveh, and the three semesters in between.)

    Summary

    It seems like Alhaitham’s greatest joy in life aside from his books is scenting Kaveh. He’s not a bother or a hindrance in any way—heck, Kaveh finds it absolutely adorable, the way Alhaitham will try to get his hands on him for scenting—so when Kaveh is around the house, cleaning or cooking or anything of the sort, Alhaitham won’t bother him.

    But the minute he sits down, Alhaitham is on him like a pack of vengeful vultures, except instead of trying to eat him, Alhaitham just keeps aggressively scenting him.

    Burrows his cold nose into Kaveh’s neck and makes him yelp every time—and then pat Alhaitham on the head, because how is he not supposed to, when he’s this cute?

    Summary

    But, when he glances down, he finds Kaveh still nestled on his chest, back rising and falling in a steady rhythm.

    His lips quirk in a smile. The air smells of the two of them, and there’s no small amount of contentment in him to know they’ll both smell like each other for the rest of the day and maybe even tomorrow too.

    Selfish. He has never denied that he is selfish.

    (On matters of scenting and ruts.)

    Summary

    "Haitham... Is everything okay?" Kaveh's voice was quiet, hesitant, and Alhaitham hated himself for being the cause of his wariness and uncertainty, for not being able to control his mood.

    "No." Alhaitham answered simply; the admission was easier than expected.

    Kaveh's brows pinched together before he stepped forward, his hands curling around Alhaitham's waist. "...What do you need?"

    Normally bad days didn't bother him. It was a simple thing to return home and decompress peacefully, but he felt wound tight, jaw clenched, and knew that he was in a mood he didn't wish to subject Kaveh to, something that drove him to try and seek solitude. However upon returning home, he found himself reevaluating their relationship and his place in it.

    OR
    Alhaitham discovers that maybe, sometimes, it's okay to seek comfort in Kaveh's arms.

    But the world around her kept on spinning, like she was some suspension in a fluid’s perpetual flow. Everything before Faruzan’s eyes was fractured, glitching between the current input of her vision and the scenes of her memories, her head breaking down in trying to resolve the conflict between two realities.

    What I know, what I don’t… boundaries disintegrate and regenerate in structures she could not understand, at a rate her mind could not catch up to.

     

    (faruzan and her struggles to adapt to the new reality, a hundred years after her disappearance.)

    Summary

    “You’re perfect, Kaveh.” Alhaitham is breathless when he says it, as if he’s struggling to breathe, as if his lungs have decided to check out for the evening. They must have, because his heart has taken full reign, beating wildly enough in his chest to make up for the lost air, and Kaveh is to blame.

    Kaveh’s skin burns bright. Heat spills from his cheeks, down his neck, dripping onto his chest, and he looks away, but that does not stop Alhaitham from devouring him with his eyes, his hands, his lips. “Says you,” Kaveh counters, yet the effort is fruitless.

    “Yes, says me. I am seldomly wrong, Kaveh, and I am not wrong now.

    “Flattery will get you no—”

    Alhaitham silences him with a kiss. It's all heat and passion and salt. Hunger and desperation and devouring. Flattery will get him nowhere for he has nowhere to go. He’s right where he wants to be.

    //or, kaveh asks to be blindfolded during sex, and alhaitham seizes the opportunity to take the next step towards a shared future
