    Summary

    You could do something about it when flowers begin to bloom in your lungs. Or you could resign yourself to death, because surely they'll never love someone like you back.

    I.e. I'm in the business of making my favourite characters suffer needlessly when everything could be solved in one conversation >:)

    I've changed this like three times because I'm SO BAD AT SUMMARIES.

    Summary

    “Why is there a letter on the table?” Alhaitham asked.
    Kaveh shrugged. “Why don’t you open it and find out?”
    “You could’ve opened it yourself,” Alhaitham retorted, bringing the mug to his lips and sipping.
    “It’s addressed to you.” Kaveh slid the envelope over to the Scribe. “It would be rude to open things that are not meant for me.”
    “Not to mention illegal,” Alhaitham added as he grabbed it.
    He tore the envelope and retrieved the letter inside, only to be met with a surprise.
    You are invited to the wedding of Kaveh and Dunyarzad—
    What.

    In which Kaveh is getting married and Alhaitham’s world falls apart.

    After his wife runs away from home, Alhaitham develops:
    1) separation anxiety;
    2) a plan to keep Kaveh.

    Problem is, Kaveh did not run away from home. And he’s not even Alhaitham’s wife.

    That doesn’t stop Alhaitham.

    Summary

    The door swings open, and Childe immediately bows and says his signature catchphrase, “Fatui Maid Services, here to offer you the most authentic maid experience. I’m Childe, and I’ll be—”

    He finally looks up, and stood before him was a man with dark hair tied in a low ponytail that trailed down to his waist. He had a decent build, broad shoulders and defined muscles barely outlined by his white dress shirt, his sleeves partially rolled up and exposing his forearms. His eyes were the colour of cor lapis, and the ends of his hair strands had the slightest tint of amber.

    “—s-serving you today...” Childe was absolutely mesmerised.

    “Ah, you’re here,” the man spoke, and Childe suppressed the urge to scream.

    Fuck, that voice. It was a pleasant baritone. Serene and tranquil, an excellent match to the elegance and poise the man exuded.

    When he heard that his client was a rich man in his thirties, he was expecting someone a little... different. Someone crude, someone snobby, someone unpleasant. But this man, Zhongli, if Childe remembers correctly, was the furthest from that. And so he stands stunned, his mouth agape as he stared at the most beautiful man he’d ever laid eyes upon.

    Summary

    “I’ll head back then. Leave you to your quiet.” And before Alhaitham could protest, he turned, striding off to his quarters. Before he could tell him something foolish, like the fact that Kaveh’s voice didn’t count, or that he wanted him to stay.

    Or, in which Prince Alhaitham, the winged heir to the throne of Deshret, finds himself feeling feelings rather unfit for a Crown Prince, but quickly realizes he does not care.

    Summary

    Alhaitham tightened his grip on his sword at the mention of his name. Nahida had assured the palace was vacant and that not a soul knew he would be arriving today.

    "Who are you and why are you here." Alhaitham demanded.

    The man's expression did not change. His mouth slightly agape in confusion and suprise. His hands were resting behind his back in a relaxed posture. He did not seem afraid, nor threatened in the slightest. After a heartbeat or two his shoulders slouched down slightly and he steadily replied;

    "My name is Kaveh."

    -

    After numerous assassination attempts Alhaitham is forced to temporarily move. He soon finds that the Palace he believed to be vacant is keeping a man, waiting to be discovered, hostage. A man that could uncover why Alhaitham is incomplete.

    Summary

    A letter comes to a house in Sumeru City.

    My light,

    I have been absent from you too long. For that, I have no apology worthy enough for the forgiveness I ask of you now. I am ill.

    ...

    Kaveh's mother gets sick. This serves as a catalyst in many respects.

    Kaveh lost everything that meant 'home' to him at a young age.

    The last place he expected to find it again was with a scholar with an ego the size of the Divine Tree.

    Summary

    When childhood best friends fall apart, Kaveh is left in Gandharva Ville, spending his time painting and occupying his time at the paint shop, and Alhaitham, now living within Sumeru City, has become part of a wealthy family, inheriting his parent's fortune after their untimely passing.

    When the opportunity arises for Kaveh to live within the city for his paintings, he is at a dead end, having nowhere to go, and that is when Alhaitham's grandmother reaches out to him, inviting him to live with her and Alhaitham. It's been years since they've seen each other, and plenty has changed, and not just in appearance. What should've been a simple trip to further his career journey turned into a life full of secrets and confusion, and left Kaveh wondering about whether Alhaitham really was who he initially thought or not.

    Summary

    There was a child on the divan.

    She didn’t look particularly old, perhaps five or six, with startlingly white and silver hair tipped with green. Her eyes were intensely green and though she seemed surprised to see Kaveh, her smile was sweet. “Hello,” she said. “Are you Kaveh?”

    “Um,” Kaveh said eloquently. “Yes?”

    Kaveh comes back from a trip into the desert for inspiration and finds out that Alhaitham's daughter will be staying with them for an undetermined amount of time.

    He's perfectly normal about this.

    Summary

    “I am perfectly aware of what I am suggesting, Kaveh. I had thought that you being the ‘expert of love and expression’ wanted to prove to me, ‘hater of all things beautiful,’ that passion trumps coherent thought.”
    As Alhaitham drones on, the color returns to Kaveh’s face. Though this time, Alhaitham can’t quite tell if the light pink on the older man’s cheeks and ears are a result of anger, or something else.
    “Ah, but it appears I was mistaken. Once again, you’re all talk, no action. A barking dog with no plan to actually bite-“
    “Go sit on the divan.”

    “…huh?”
    Kaveh doesn’t give his roommate the chance to think or readjust.
    “Don’t pretend like you didn’t hear me. If you wanna play this game Alhaitham, fine. Go sit on the divan.”
    .......
    Or

    Kaveh is an altruist. He fully believes in the power of love, romance, and dreams. Alhaitham is a realist. He places his faith in the power of reason, truth, and history. After one argument too many, a romantic performance at the Zubayr theater, and a one night stand at Lambad's, the tension between the two scholars finally snaps. And if Kaveh and Alhaitham can agree on one thing, it's that they will do anything to prove a point.

    Summary

    An orphan omega growing up to marry Sumeru Akademiya’s Grand Sage might sound like something out of a romance novel, but for Kaveh it’s anything but. He has dreams and aspirations, and none of those involve being mated to a man who is no doubt thrice his age and balding.

    Alas, circumstances have never been his friend. All he can do now is make the best of things.

    (He doesn’t expect to fall in love.)

    Summary

    “I wouldn’t say ‘friends,’ exactly.” was Kaveh’s usual answer when asked of his relationship with the current Acting Grand Sage, Alhaitham. In fact, he had no idea how to define their relationship―they weren’t friends, they were hardly colleagues, and he’d be damned if he let anyone find out he stayed in that man's house.

    As their strenuous relationship begins shifting from bickering roommates to something more intimate, that very relationship becomes all the more ill-defined...

    I.e. Kaveh is a terrible drunk and Alhaitham sucks at communication.
