    Summary

    When Sethos left the class, the two were arguing again, this time about which textbook would be best for the class. Their altercations hadn't really stopped at any moment, because every time Professor Thoth asked a question, Kaveh's hand shot up while Alhaitham leisurely raised his, and they each confronted each other's points in increasingly passive-aggressive language.

    They hated each other's guts, and it was frankly hilarious. Why they sat right next to each other would remain a mystery, but Sethos guessed that it was probably to amp up the tension.

    Summary

    “I wanted you to stop me,” he says. “That night I packed my things. I wanted you to say—don’t go. I thought you would, but you didn’t. And I told myself you didn’t care. That you never did.”

    Silence.

    The kind that floods every room. The kind that knows what it’s doing.

    Then—

    “I thought you knew,” Alhaitham says. “I thought you were just waiting for me to say it because you didn’t want to risk being wrong.”

    Kaveh stares. “Well. That’s incredibly fucking stupid.”

    Alhaitham nods once. “It is.”

    They stare at each other. It is not the usual staring. It is not bickering or strategizing or seeing who blinks first. It is something else. Something deeper. Something cracking.

    Cyno coughs pointedly. “Do you require further divine intervention, or will you kiss now?”

    Or, Kaveh assumes Alhaitham will eventually say the thing, Alhaitham assumes Kaveh already knows the thing, and everyone else in Sumeru suffers accordingly.

    Summary

    Kaveh read through the unfinished letter quietly, tapping his fingers on the desk with a hum. Alhaitham took the opportunity to hug him properly, pressing a tender kiss to his jaw.

    Or: the context behind Alhaitham’s letters to Paimon.

    Summary

    “You know, if you’d waited fifteen more minutes yesterday, you wouldn’t have had to come back for the car.”

    “I wanted to come back.”

    Or: Alhaitham takes his car to a mechanic.

    Summary

    Kaveh wakes up to find that Mehrak has turned into a human child.

    A door creaked open. Kaveh let the spatula fall onto the floor with a clatter at the reminder that he had no idea how his roommate would react, and Alhaitham—

    “Dad!” Mehrak exclaimed, dashing into the corridor.
