    Summary

    Lan Wangji had long since stopped thinking of Wei Wuxian's body as Mo Xuanyu's. He grew used to all the ways it was different and the same from the last. But slowly, surely, now that they were comfortable, Wei Wuxian's face had begun to change again. The lines of his jaw became a slightly smudged drawing. Not all together unfamiliar, just enough that Lan Wangji second-guessed his own memory. There was one night Lan Wangji came home to find Wei Wuxian's eyes had changed color. He woke one morning and was taller, his silhouette stretching and growing like a shadow cast against the wall.

    His smile was the same. The way he pouted, and slept in, the way he kissed. His terrible jokes. Lan Wangji would get used to a new face too if the husband was still the same.

    -

    Or, the one where Wei Wuxian's face begins to change to look like his original body. It isn't easy on anyone. But it isn't so bad, either.

    Summary

    “It reminds me of you,” Al-Haitham says, slow and pondering as it is certain, and Kaveh almost topples over right then and there when he realizes that it had only taken work and meal times and sleep to tear Al-Haitham out of this room where he’s perpetually surrounded by the sweetened remembrance of Kaveh built up around him. It’s perhaps one of the most romantic things he could have said at the moment in that understated and yet viciously evident way of his.

    God, Kaveh wants to say. Don’t remind me of how much I love you, Al-Haitham.

    Summary

    “The sun is not credited enough for the moon’s allure, for that beauty awes purely due to the sun’s reflecting gaze,” Al-Haitham says, his eyes locking onto Kaveh, devastatingly so.

    Somehow, time seemed to have frozen.

    Kaveh snorts, “What poetry book did you get that one from?” He tries his best not to sound too hesitant.

    Al-Haitham shakes his head, “One of my works of prose, what do you think?”

    Kaveh thinks he should run his fingers through his junior’s silvery hair and kiss him passionately while the night is young. Kaveh thinks he wants to hear a different kind of prose coming from his mouth, a harmonious one, equally beautiful— though perhaps not quite as coherent. Obviously, Al-Haitham can’t know that. 

    Ever the romantic, Kaveh seems to find it harder by the day to keep his affection for a certain Scribe at bay.

    Summary

    “Braid my hair?” Kaveh asks though with a fond tone. “Again?”

    Alhaitham narrows his eyes. “What do you mean again? The last time I did it was…”

    “Back when we were in the Akademiya, yes.” Kaveh smiles.

     

    Or, Alhaitham braids Kaveh’s hair just like he used to when they were students in the Akademiya. They look back upon the fond memories of their relationship and Alhaitham makes an offer that vows to make even more.
