    Summary

    “If this occurrence is so fleeting, why does it trouble you so deeply to hurt someone who has already hurt you?”

    “Because,” Aventurine said, anger sharpening the edges of his words, “He’s eleven, alright? He’s eleven years old and he just wants to see his sister again.” Ratio’s expression flickered, a terrible pitiless sorrow turning his mouth. That it was for him made Aventurine burn with shame. “And anyway, he fucked with my head,” Aventurine finished, rather lamely. “I know my enemy and he wasn’t a child.”

    Made me feel sick to my stomach in a good way. Just *chefs kiss* that perfect balance of hurt/comfort. I will be lying in bed awake at 2am thinking about this fic.

    Summary

    People keep coming up to Kaveh to congratulate him. Kaveh doesn’t really know why, and he’s a little too scared to ask at this point, so he heads back home, content if not a little bemused.

    He is, unfortunately, reminded of it the very next day, when the door slams open and Al-Haitham stalks in. “Mind telling me why everyone was congratulating me today?” he demands. “About your pregnancy?"

     

    Or: Al-Haitham is, without a doubt, the most annoying person Kaveh knows. Maybe the world’s second-most annoying person can help Kaveh figure him out.

    Summary

    Kaveh used to think that Alhaitham had mastered the art of ignoring him. The man would remain unflappable as he continued to read his worn copy of The Origins of Enkanomiyan Language, even when Kaveh was a hair’s breadth away from shattering the windows of their house with his severity of pitch.

    No amount of screaming, threats to throw things, or violently waving in front of him could get Alhaitham to pause in his thirst for knowledge. As it turns out, Alhaitham literally just turns his hearing aids off so he doesn’t have to listen to Kaveh.

    It’s for this exact reason that Kaveh has decided to learn Sumerian Sign Language.

    or,

    Kaveh learns sign language just to continue bickering with Alhaitham.

    Summary

    The war is over and after the fall of the titans, humanity has begun to take its first steps beyond the walls...

    ...leaving Humanity's Strongest behind them to recover from medical complications that result in an amputation that leaves him feeling trapped, broken, and alone.

    And he might have stayed that way too, if it hadn’t been for a certain green-eyed soldier who was too stubborn for his own good.
