    Summary

    Aventurine is so distracted that he does not notice the car door opening at the back until someone heaves a loud sigh. His heart nearly jumps out from the shock. Is he being mugged in this day and age? He could already imagine the headlines in the news the next morning: The senior manager of the of the Strategic Department of IPC, mugged in front of the university of Veritas Prime?

    "Good evening...?" He tries to be civil. Perhaps the intruder will be amazed by his impeccable manners and dashing looks to forgo doing heinous crimes against him. Technically, if worst comes to worst, he's got plenty of credits to spare, but he would rather not lose spare change for no reason when he can keep it for another day.

     

    ---

    Or: Ratio mistakes Aventurine's car as his Uber ride. They deal with the drama (read: stupid rom-com) that ensues. (Oh, the tragedy)

    Summary

    There was a book on architecture in the middle of the history tomes. It was a paperback, hidden in a corner and covered by a larger book. He only caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, yet that was enough to make him pause, his heart suddenly a cage for a bird desperate to escape. A blond-haired boy bent over the table, drawing absentmindedly with a soft smile on his lips. On the spine, a small castle drawn. This was one of the few books on aesthetics in architecture sold in Sumeru and, years ago, he had given it to Kaveh as a gift.

    How had his book ended up in Sage Reza's office?

    ;; After Alhaitham and Kaveh fell out, Kaveh was kidnapped and brainwashed by the Sages to become nothing more than their personal pet. Almost a decade later, when Alhaitham overthrows the government, he finds out about Kaveh and takes him home, only to realize that the way to recovery is harder than he thought.

    Summary

    The second time Ratio found Aventurine cornered in an alley, it wasn’t coincidence—it was routine.

    He didn’t mean to get involved. He didn’t mean to care. But when someone keeps ending up in trouble and pretending it doesn’t hurt, what choice does a man have?

    A couch. A night. A boundary neither of them fully understands. And the slow, silent question: how long can someone survive like this?

    Summary

    Alhaitham did not expect to have such a roommate. He thought that the university dormitory would provide him with a small, but at least separate room, but no... He ended up with probably the most annoying, intrusive, overly energetic, and emotional roommate. It seemed that Alhaitham's hearing impairment should have naturally limited his communication with any person. But that was not the case...
    _____________

    "But it's true: I want to understand music. What else can I do with it?" Alhaitham retorted.

    "Good," Kaveh said, nodding more to himself. "Then, you know what?" Alhaitham looked at him questioningly, hinting for him to continue. "Then I will explain music to you! I’m sure those people from the past didn’t know what they were talking about, so I can convey it to you much better. No objections!"
