    Summary

    “I don’t like this outcome,” Lauma had said. Sweet, irrational, exactly what Nefer would expect from her.

    It’s almost ironic, really—that the first thing she saw when her vision returned days later was the very expression she’d secretly hoped to see: Lauma’s relief, soft and unguarded, painted in the light of an early morning sun.

    “What’s the damage?” Nefer had demanded, not daring to look in a mirror yet.

    And Lauma only chuckled, shaking her head. “Absolutely nothing. You’re perfect.”

    or, Nefer and Lauma, a few days into the aftermath of saving the entirety of Nod-Krai, figuring things out as they come.

    Summary

    "How did you even learn to draw?" Kaveh asks another day, observing another drawing closely (one where he seemed to be passionately talking about something again).

    "Hm? I just flipped through a book on anatomy and got the hang of it."

     

    . . . Why did Kaveh even bother? Alhaitham was probably the kind of monster who could draw a perfect side profile without lifting the pencil from the sheet even once.

    Kaveh learns that Alhaitham liked to draw.

    Or . . . he resorted to it, for reasons Kaveh would have to piece together over pages and pages of works created with the cost of a fraction of his dignity. Hopefully, he gets his answers, before the humiliation gets to him.

    Summary

    The toddler began to cry, and then he started to cough from trying to cry too hard, snot dripping down his face. Another adult came hurrying over to help him to his feet before they went inside to head, presumably, to the nurse’s office.

    Loud, chaotic, dirty. Everything that went against Al-Haitham’s standards.

    “Working here as what?” Kaveh blinked. “Like admin or something? That’s probably quiet and far enough from kids for you. Though—”

    “No,” interrupted Al-Haitham. “I don’t.”

    After getting fired from a prestigious architecture firm, Kaveh moves back to his hometown to raise his five-year-old brother only to find that an old college "acquaintance" is his little brother's kindergarten teacher.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    BEAUTIFUL

    Summary

    “The sun is not credited enough for the moon’s allure, for that beauty awes purely due to the sun’s reflecting gaze,” Al-Haitham says, his eyes locking onto Kaveh, devastatingly so.

    Somehow, time seemed to have frozen.

    Kaveh snorts, “What poetry book did you get that one from?” He tries his best not to sound too hesitant.

    Al-Haitham shakes his head, “One of my works of prose, what do you think?”

    Kaveh thinks he should run his fingers through his junior’s silvery hair and kiss him passionately while the night is young. Kaveh thinks he wants to hear a different kind of prose coming from his mouth, a harmonious one, equally beautiful— though perhaps not quite as coherent. Obviously, Al-Haitham can’t know that. 

    Ever the romantic, Kaveh seems to find it harder by the day to keep his affection for a certain Scribe at bay.

    Summary

    “I thought you said you could resist me.” Kaveh playfully knees Alhaitham in the stomach with a teasing expression.

    Alhaitham tries to think of an excuse. He really does. But with Kaveh staring at him with reddened lips, his chest still heaving from the previous events, all he can admit is, “I lied.”

    People tend to wonder how Alhaitham can resist Kaveh. The answer is that he can't. Rather, he fails miserably trying.

    Summary

    Cyno sighs. "It could be some time until Gandharva Ville is once again suitable for human habitation," he says. "Even once the Ley Lines are repaired, it will take time for the energies at the site to disperse."

    "I have a Vision," Collei says. "I can help."

    Cyno shakes his head. "High concentrations of unguided energies are known to be particularly harmful to post-Eleazar individuals. The protection that your Vision offers would be more than canceled out."

    Collei folds her hands in her lap. "It's my home."

    "I know," Cyno says.

    After Gandharva Ville is attacked, Collei must spend a few weeks living in Alhaitham's house in Sumeru City. It's not what she's used to, but sometimes that's what someone needs to grow.

    Summary

    His glass of water clinks against the clay coaster he keeps on the side table, and red ink stares angrily up at him from the book resting on his knee:

    ‘Thoughts?’ he asks, like it’s out of innocent curiosity. Really, Al-Haitham? You want to know my thoughts?

    Fine. You asked for it. Here’s a thought:

    Fuck you.

    Al-Haitham feels his lips pull up into a smile.

    In retrospect, starting a philosophical argument in the margins of an ancient poetry book might be one of the best ideas Al-Haitham has ever had.

    Summary

    Alhaitham steps closer, looking at Kaveh with an odd look in his eyes. He’s never seen it before.

    “Did you mean it?” He asks, his words slower this time. “That you love me?”

    “You–” Kaveh furrows his eyebrows, at a loss. “Were you even listening to me this whole time?”

    “Kaveh, please.”

    Alhaitham and Kaveh's relationship is supposed to move slowly. Yet, when Kaveh breaks down and Alhaitham takes care him, Kaveh accidentally blurts out "I love you" much too early.

    Summary

    Alhaitham’s never cared about the opinions of others about him, until he meets Kaveh’s mother.

    Alhaitham also has an answer for everything, until he’s rendered speechless by the woman now sitting across the couch in his home, drinking his coffee, and it’s not like she’s done particularly anything to make Alhaitham shut his mouth. It’s just that for the first time in his life, the scribe is choosing his words carefully and keeping himself in check. He dare not embarrass himself, more so offend the woman who’s the splitting image of his roommate.

    She’s basically Kaveh in a dress and Kaveh with lipstick, and maybe a Kaveh who’s quieter and a few inches shorter in height.

    Summary

    “There are three suitors who you can romance in this game. You must complete all your requirements with one of them."

    “Who are the three potential suitors?” Kaveh asks warily.

    “Your three suitors are Tighnari, the blunt Palace Chamberlain; Cyno, the standoffish Captain of the Royal Guard; and Al-Haitham, the acerbic Duke of Vultur Volans.”

    There's a new invention from the Yae Publishing House that turns a user's dreams into light novel stories. Kaveh has the (un)fortunate pleasure of being one of its first users.

    Too bad it dumped him in a romance game.

    Summary

    “Hmph.” Kaveh steps closer. "So why choose to listen to my voice even when I’m complaining about you?”

    Alhaitham shuts his eyes. “Just because.”

    “Being a little vague there, Scribe Alhaitham.”

    “I just…” Alhaitham sighs. “I just really like your voice.”

    Or, Kaveh learns sign language because he fears that Alhaitham is growing tired of his voice. He doesn't understand that Alhaitham actually... loves it.

    Summary

    Kaveh sighs again, and this time his features knit together and he squeezes his eyes shut. “Can you stop being clinical for two minutes and hear what I’m actually asking you?”

    “I am listening.” It’s true. “And I do understand.”

    “Do you, now?”

    “I do.”

    Kaveh pinches the bridge of his nose. The frustration there isn’t feigned or overblown—it’s real, deep in the lines of his face and the tension drawing his shoulders. “I’d want you to be here,” he says again, but quieter.

    “I will be here,” Alhaitham answers. “And it’ll be with the cure.”

    When an expedition gone wrong leaves Kaveh with three days to live, Alhaitham and Cyno fight to find the cure while Tighnari fights to buy them time.

    Sometimes it does take a village.

    Kaveh rushes to pick himself up from the floor, bracing himself on the bedside table when his knees start wobbling. “Cyno! Good, you’re here, uh—“ He winces and rubs the back of his head. “Okay, wait…why are you– whatever, that doesn’t matter. So this means that we didn’t get kidnapped last night. Great, that’s…one question answered, at least.”

    Cyno looks between him and Tighnari, raising an eyebrow. “Anything else you want to comment on?”

    “I’m almost afraid to ask,” Kaveh laughs, strained and panicked.

    “I’m not,” Tighnari says groggily from the bed. “Can you please tell us what happened?”

    “You two got married last night.”

    Summary

    He walked down the narrow aisle towards where his seat should be, steps beginning to falter as he came closer and saw someone already settled into the window seat next to his. His first reaction: oh no, he's hot. A guy, seemingly around Namjoon's age, with jet black, shining hair. He was looking down, scrolling casually on his phone, but just his profile was kind of staggeringly stunning.

    (or - bonsai apprentice namjoon makes an unexpected connection on his long flight home.)
