    Summary

    “Go away.” Kaveh slurs his words, despite there only being two. It’d be impressive if it weren’t enough to give even Alhaitham second hand embarrassment.

    The patience he had at the start is wearing thin. “Stand up, you need to go home.” Alhaitham nudges him again, but Kaveh shoves him away.

    “Could you fuck off?

     

    -

     

    Where Alhaitham is forced to work with Kaveh on another research project, and with it, confront the mysteries sparked within himself by the pages of writing; or, more accurately, the face beyond them, across the room, asleep on his own two arms.

    Summary

    “I’ve designed many buildings in my career,” Kaveh begins, the attention of every single person in the crowd fixed on him. “Most of which have been extravagant pieces made to stand tall in our city and glitter.”

    Kaveh glances down at what must be some notes on the podium, pausing before he looks back up, shining in the bright lights of the stage.

    “But in recent years, I must admit that my focus has shifted.”

    Alhaitham leans forward, watching, hoping for something he can't quite admit. Not when the truth is that he’s never known how to say that he is hungry without fear that people will see the truth that he is starving.

    Or, a year after the events of the Interdarshan Championship, Alhaitham finally retires

    Summary

    Reality hit Kaveh first. He smacked Alhaitham’s hand away and covered himself with his arm.

    “Haitham-” Kaveh’s eyes went wide. “I don’t know what you’re- but this isn’t-”

    He couldn’t blame Alhaitham for jumping to disbelief. If anything, it was the rational response. But the moment his hand met Kaveh’s chest, an instinct unfamiliar yet inviting surged through him, and all at once Kaveh knew his body was not the same as it was a day ago.

    Kaveh wakes up hungover. And female.

    Summary

    Kaveh was loud, golden, impossible to ignore. Alhaitham preferred silence, precision, control. They weren’t supposed to fit. And yet, Kaveh reached, and Alhaitham learned how to let someone in. Somewhere along the way, they fell. Clumsily. Fiercely. Unstoppably.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry I had to restrain you that way,” Ada mutters, “You understand that I can’t let you hurt either of us.”

    She assumes she’ll be met with silence again, and instead finds a distinct, quiet note of surprise when he shakes his head against the floor.

    “...My fault,” He almost whispers, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to.”

    It’s an awful sound to hear. His voice isn’t quiet by intent, but rather because it sounds like he’s had his vocal chords raked out of his body. It’s raspy, raw. She can imagine a dozen causes for it. There’s no scarring, so it can’t have been a physical trauma — the most likely option is either from misuse, or from screaming. Her stomach churns again, and this time is potent enough that she clasps a hand over her mouth, just in case she actually vomits. It passes within seconds, though she’s left feeling a bit cold and clammy.

    “It’s okay,” Ada instead assures, “I understand. I scared you.”
