    Summary

    "My body! That's all I have left."

    Alhaitham stares at him in bewilderment.

    "What are you-"

    "I don't want to owe anymore debts!" Kaveh yells abruptly, clenching his fists. "Nothing in life is free, I know that. I've learned that the hard way. And the last person I want to be indebted to is you."

    Kaveh can't pay rent, he hasn't for eight long month, there just isn't enough money. But the last thing he wants is another thing for Alhaitham to dangle over his head.

    He initiated it, but still, he never expected to find a new rent contract slipped under his bedroom door with the payment changed from mora to sexual intercourse.

    AKA; Alhaitham and Kaveh use rent as an excuse to explore each other's bodies until their greed leads to more than just mere mutual lust.

    Summary

    “Why does it not–” Kaveh’s voice ripped out in a whine. “Have you not thought about it at all since then?”

    A long pause. The longest one yet. “Who says I haven’t?”

    Lightning flashed through the window, illuminating Al-Haitham’s face. Half of it was still wrapped in shadow, blocked by Kaveh’s head, but he could see the distance between them measured, laid flat by the light. The lightning went. The room went dark. But the memory of Al-Haitham’s wide eyes did not leave him.

    What did he want?

    “Have you?” asked Kaveh.

    “Have you?” Al-Haitham’s voice was so quiet, buried under the murmur of the rain.

    Kaveh swallowed. “I mean…I thought that was obvious.”

    Kaveh accidentally sleeps with Al-Haitham. And then...keeps sleeping with him.

    Summary

    After an accident at work, Kaveh sort of dies. But he is granted a chance to come back to life if he can get three people to shed tears of pure love for him. He thinks that would be easy, since he has so many friends, but soon realises that it's not as easy as he thought it would be.

    Meanwhile, a grieving Alhaitham is very confused by this new stranger in Sumeru City who acts so much like Kaveh, but is not Kaveh.

    “Well, I promise you, Kaveh will be very okay with it. I’m sure of it.”
    “If I’m not convinced, will you be suddenly bringing me a letter allegedly written by Kaveh that expresses his agreement?” Alhaitham asked with a raised eyebrow.
    “That letter was written by Kaveh. One hundred percent. I don’t know why you keep doubting me,” Kaveh insisted.
    Alhaitham hummed to himself. “Just wanted to see how you’d react.”

    Summary

    #brunette!Kaveh theory: he dyes his hair because he can't stand seeing how much he takes after his father, and because his mother couldn't, either.

    Since their Akademiya days, Kaveh and Alhaitham have been falling for one another. But when Alhaitham has to leave Sumeru for a three year research trip, two letters that Kaveh and him exchange make their relationship crumble. Siraj, who's had his sights on Alhaitham for a long time, makes the most of it. His victim is a heartbroken and alone Kaveh - victim in every mature and explicit sense.

    Alhaitham returns, Cyno chases and punishes, and Tighnari holds the entirety of their once friendship on his shoulders, while Baizhu helps Kaveh to put the pieces of his mind and soul back together.

    Summary

    "The world moved on, but not for Alhaitham.

    It got to the point where it wasn't like he was purposefully waiting, but the years passed and buried him along with his feelings. It was more like he couldn't grasp the idea that the world could go on without Kaveh, and everything just stopped making any sense until the day they would meet again."

    Where Kaveh falls into some ruins for a few days, and returns to find out that years have passed.

    Or,

    Wangxian-inspired Alhaitham/Kaveh.

    --

    Loneliness gnaws at Kaveh. Then, Alhaitham shows up.

    Summary

    Kaveh returns from a trip in the ruins in the late hours of the night, and slowly finds out that maybe, maybe it hadn't been an ordinary trip in the desert.

    Summary

    When Kaveh discovers that Alhaitham has been reading a book about human sexuality and kinks, he generously offers to assist Alhaitham with some sexual exploration. It’s a risky proposal, and one that could end very badly—thanks to their falling-out years ago, the two of them have trust issues galore.

    But it turns out that Kaveh and Alhaitham are surprisingly good at trust and communication when it comes to sex…which raises some questions about the nature of their relationship, and where exactly this whole experiment is leading them.

    “Look,” Kaveh says, “if you’re going to approach sexual pleasure like an experiment, most potential partners won’t take too kindly to the idea of you having sex with them for science. Therefore, to spare all the poor people you’d inevitably insult in your quest for data, I am willing to be that person.”

    “How charitable of you,” Alhaitham says.

    “And I assume that you’re somewhat comfortable with the idea of having sex with me,” Kaveh adds, “or else you wouldn’t have been so willing to have my fingers in your mouth just now.”

    Summary

    “Have you ever kissed a girl?”

    Kaveh’s cheeks are flushed, the dust of alcohol making itself present and telling. It’s not the first time Kaveh’s vocal about carnal actions, but it’s the first time he adds Alhaitham into it. Three months in which they know each other, and the silver haired has witnessed these cheeks flush prettily a few times already, to the point of knowing Kaveh’s favorite brand of wine, along with the one that gets him there faster. He’s yet to discover which takes longer, but patience is a necessity for a scholar that has their base grounded in results.

    “No.” Alhaitham replies without needing time to think, without raising his head from the book he’s reading.

    “What about a boy?”

    Summary

    Kaveh feels his own breaths shallow, he’s trying his best not to make a sound, not to move an inch. How the hell did he even find himself in this position to begin with? It’s cramped, uncomfortable, hot. Oh, and there’s also the magnificent view of Alhaitham’s rising and falling naked chest.

    No biggie.

    Kaveh finds himself in quite the unique situation. How did he get there? And where are they headed?

    Summary

    Kaveh regrets ever accepting this new commission. It is not the pay nor the project itself – both are to the architect’s satisfaction. No, the problem is the client and her obsession with Kaveh.

    She believes them to be “destined for each other” and takes Kaveh’s rejection as playing hard to get. In his desperation Kaveh lies about having a boyfriend, a certain scribe he shares a home with and is oh-so madly in love with. Now he has to convince Alhaitham to play the part, when his client insists on meeting the “love of his life”.

    Summary

    If Alhaitham hadn’t taken both keys with him, he wouldn’t be in this goddamn mess. He’d be at home, sipping tea over a nice book – that is, not trapped in the body of a damn cat out of all things, miserable and stuck out in the rain.

    Surely his day could not get any worse than this, is what he thinks, right before he runs head first into said roommate.


    In which Kaveh turns into a cat, and Alhaitham unwittingly adopts him.
