    Summary

    “Uh, what—?”

    This plan is so ill-advised, it is sure to get him laughed at or even kicked out, but the words are out of his mouth already, and he surely can’t take them back now, so he has to press on—

    “You heard me right. I need you to pretend to be my lover.”

    In which Kaveh asks Alhaitham to pretend to be his partner to get his mom’s approval and to hide that he’s in debt, and feelings that were always bubbling under the surface arise.

    Summary

    Kaveh feels warmth across his face without really meaning to. “That is irrelevant. It’s a simple yes or no question. You’d remember if you left a piece of paper in the cup cabinet of all places, right? So, did you, or did you not?”

    For some reason, Alhaitham does not reply, instead staring him down with an emotion that Kaveh does not have a name to in his eyes. The feeling falls heavy on Kaveh’s chest, and he feels the slightest twinge.

    The architect walks out of the living room and into his own, shutting the door behind him. Sliding down his door, he looks down at the paper in his hands, rereading the words that were crafted seemingly gently together. He reads and reads and reads until he no longer needs to do so to recite the poem. He feels the words in his heart, and along with it, an ache of hurt.

    Or, Alhaitham leaves poetry around the house as a way of confessing to Kaveh. Kaveh has no idea (somewhat).

    Summary

    Kaveh does not like strangers seeing him vulnerable, but he relaxes in the company of those that he trusts. But Alhaitham does not know which category he falls under. At Bimarstan, the question was irrelevant because Kaveh wouldn't be alone either way. Here, it's different. Kaveh will be alone unless Alhaitham goes to sit with him.

    It would be nice to sit with him. Reassuring. And it would be easier to make sure that he has everything he needs.

    But what he needs most is rest. And he won't rest well if he is uncomfortable.

    Kaveh falls ill. Alhaitham works through some things.

    Summary

    Arguing is Alhaitham’s and Kaveh’s favourite pastime. However, their light-hearted bickering takes a serious twist after a long day and one too many drinks. They cross lines Kaveh always thought to be walls and he ends up storming out of the tavern, furious and homeless.

    As if this wasn’t enough, where Kaveh’s team planned to build, a Leyline has formed. Kaveh knew from the start the Leyline would be trouble, but he didn’t expect it to be the kind of trouble to send him back in time.

    Here in the past, Kaveh is a student at the Akademiya again. A time where he isn’t in debt nor suffocated by workload. A time where Alhaitham still looks at him like he would trade in the world for his safety. Kaveh swears to himself to seize this second chance, but Alhaitham catches on quickly that there is something odd about his Senior…

    or:

    Kaveh accidentally travels back in time and tries to fix Alhaitham's and his broken relationship.
