Summary
If I were to catalogue all the languages between us, it may take me longer than I live; because by the time I have listed those that we already have, we may have developed even more, and so on and so forth, until the very act of finding new ways to tell each other the same thing over and over again might have transformed into a language of its own. Lexemes outlast bodies, and our language will outlast us, ever-evolving. A language of eternity, if you will.
The events of Alhaitham's birthday, as recounted by Alhaitham.

Woah,I love how Kaveh's POV is in third person while Alhaitham's is in first person,it really distinguishes how they both think!And my goodness...This POV made me understand that even though Alhaitham is a linguistics major he still can't find the right words to say"I love you",it's quite heartbreaking in a way...I really enjoyed this a lot and this really helped me have a vivid idea of their relationship

Summary
There’s a first time for everything. Even if the thing in question is something oddly specific, like touching the face of a man for the first time since you painfully parted ways with him nearly a decade ago. There is also such a thing as deja vu, which can be felt at times such as these; when you are holding the face of said man in a way that mirrors a bittersweet memory from your youth, one that he clearly remembers too.
A little-known fact about Alhaitham is that his nose bleeds when he's exhausted. A little-known fact about Kaveh is that in certain contexts, he thinks himself a terrible architect.

Wow.I have no words for this beautifully written fanfic.The metaphors,the large but also tiny advancements,the demolishing of a well made building and the slow rebuilding of it's remains.It's absolutely beautiful in a way.(Don't mind how I'm calling every fanfic I bookmark beautiful today, feeling extra emotional lol)

Summary
Mehrak has this habit of opening Kaveh’s door when it’s not fully closed, nosing her way into his office and then leaping onto his lap to snuggle her head into his stomach. So he’s not entirely unsurprised when he hears the door creak open, slow and deliberate the way his cat always does it, and he doesn’t even look up to check that it’s her before he speaks.
“Not right now, solnyshko,” he calls distractedly, too focused on his current sketch.
There’s silence, as there usually is since Mehrak can’t actually respond to him. Then, “Don’t be so vulgar, senior.”
Kaveh accidentally calls Al-Haitham a pet name in a different language, and then he keeps doing it. It's too bad he forgets that Al-Haitham is fluent in all of them.

This is beautiful, absolutely beautiful.I wish the vendor was Venti tho, imagine him saying "The wind is the mother of the grapevine! Don't you forget!" And Kaveh just stands there confused lol,my jaw kept dropping and I kept looking at my imaginary audience like "Did you just read that!?", Mehrak is genuinely playing Cupid;we are SO lucky she encouraged Kaveh to do that

Summary
“I mean, do you ever stop and think about who your anonymous friend might be?" Tighnari says. "Or like, maybe it’s someone you already know or some random guy in one of your classes.”
“No,” Kaveh says, thinking. “With my luck, if I did know him already, then he would probably be the worst person I know. Someone like Al-Haitham.” The thought is so absurd that he stops and laughs. “But that would be fucking awful.”
In Kaveh's humble opinion, the title for The Worst Guy In The World is tied between four people: the asshole in his Tuesday eight am, the employee behind the library email account, the guy writing the university's advice column, and the student that the professor he assists always complains about.
It would only be too convenient if they were all the same person. (They are.)

I really enjoyed this,so much so that I genuinely started feeling like Tighnari and having the same reactions as him.This is the first time I've seen a Nilou and Wanderer duo and I really like the dynamic!I kept laughing every five minutes and the ending was nice

Summary
"So the ex-Grand Sage is completely besotted, eh?" an auntie at the Bazaar murmured as she packed some saffron for Kaveh, lips twitching around a cocky smile.
Kaveh tried to swallow down the lump forming in his throat.
Rumour has it that Alhaitham and Kaveh are a couple. Kaveh… misunderstands.
