Summary
Animacaeca disease, colloquially known as ‘Soulmate blindness,’ is a tremendously rare condition wherein an individual’s soulmate number, typically visible above the heart, is beyond all perception.
“Oh! Alhaitham, you’re back!” Kaveh greeted him with glimmering eyes and a smile laced with unconditional warmth as he gestured to his right. “You were gone so long I missed your birthday… never mind that, let your senior treat you to a drink…”
For once, Alhaitham found himself incapable of registering the words protruding from Kaveh’s mouth as he was thrust into a frigid world, where an inescapable berate of frost struck his chest in a steady yet frantic rhythm. He later noted this to be the wild beating of his own heart.
“Alhaitham? Hello? What are you staring at- Oh did i manage to get something on my top again!” Kaveh dug around for a napkin, the swift turn only making the four digits on his chest more visible to Alhaitham whose eyes were nearing bloodshot due to the unmistakeable, dramatically elegant scrawl.

Summary
“Ah, that.” Ratio nods, as if whatever the hell the pastry cat thing was…well, normal. It left Aventurine wondering if strange mutations running around were a common occurrence on the space station. The doctor gestures in the thing’s general direction. “That is one of Ruan Mei, member number 81 of the genius society’s creation. It’s simply a byproduct of one of her experiments and is harmless.”
The cat pastry's gelatinous body jiggles as it looks up at Aventurine, and blinks slowly. It warbles, and he has no idea what that sound was supposed to mean. “I’ll have someone pick it up in the meanwhile, and —“
”It can stay here.” Aventurine blurts before he can stop himself.
In which one of Ruan Mei’s cat pastries makes its way into Aventurine’s room, and he ends up caring for it with the help of a certain doctor.

Summary
Cyno and Alhaitham don't get along, and that worries Lumine and Paimon. Cyno clearly doesn't fully trust Alhaitham, and Alhaitham clearly doesn't care enough to try to get along. So it's up to her and Paimon to smooth things out and make them like each other, so they're not at each other's throats while saving Nahida.
So Lumine throws herself into a desperate plot to make Cyno pity Alhaitham, in hopes of that making him trust him and stop viewing him as a spy for the Sages.
Naturally when it comes to Alhaitham's hardships, that inevitably turns to his massive fight with Kaveh, and to Lumine's horror she learns both Cyno and Alhaitham happen to know this Kaveh guy.And more importantly, both of them refuse to believe that the other one truly knows Kaveh. Because if Kaveh was truly Cyno's friend, wouldn't he have mentioned Alhaitham to Cyno? And wouldn't he have spoken about Cyno to Alhaitham?
Kaveh's desperation to keep two factions of his life separate, and for people to not learn Alhaitham is his roommate, including his friends, ends up hurting him, as much to Lumine's horror Cyno and Alhaitham are sent into a spiral of one-upping each other on Kaveh knowledge.
