    Summary

    “They say that earnest thanks should be given thrice, so… one more time, please.”

    Kaveh has never even heard that expression. But if Alhaitham insists upon it, then fine. Surely such a rule applies to other things as well…

    Alhaitham, on his part, is up for the challenge.

    Or: three times Alhaitham confesses his love to Kaveh, and one time Kaveh confesses back.

    Summary

    "After the summer's yield, Lord, it is time
    to let your shadow lengthen on the sundials
    and in the pastures let the rough winds fly."
    --Rainer Maria Rilke

    --

    All things in life are temporary . But Alhaitham's life always seems to come back to being about Kaveh.

    Summary

    Kaveh likes to think he has a relatively good memory.

    He still remembers the first time his mother had taken him to the Akademiya, sometime before he’d been enrolled, still remembers basking in the grandeur of the impressive architecture with her hand carding gently through his hair.

    He still remembers the very first time he’d lost someone close to him, still remembers the hollow feeling of his stomach dropping to his feet when he’d learned about his father’s death.

    He still remembers the very last time he’d lost someone close to him, still remembers the burning heat behind his eyes and the tightness in his throat as he’d strayed from his morals. He still remembers Alhaitham, unfazed and stoic as ever as Kaveh had retaliated, wanting to hurt Alhaitham the way he’d been hurt.

    He remembers the happier times of his life, too! He’s not just a sad sap.

    In an unfortunate, untimely turn of events, Kaveh shatters. Alhaitham is there to pick up the pieces.

    Summary

    Alhaitham’s agency throws him into a livestream dating show. As expected, he rejects everyone. Rudely.

    “Name a key scientist involved in the laws of thermodynamics.”
    “Newton?”
    “What is your stance on Dialectic of Enlightenment?”
    “Dia-what?”
    “Name a philosopher. As an advantage, a dead one.”
    “...”
    “Next.”

    It shouldn't have been as surprising when someone finally snaps.

    “Do you even know the answers to these questions, or are you just waiting for someone to say Ibn al-Haytham to boost your own ego?”

    Or: The internet is privy to Alhaitham falling in love on camera.

    Summary

    People enter Al-Haitham’s life, and then they leave. That is just the way it is: first it was his parents, and then it was his grandmother, and soon enough, it will be Kaveh. He's already set to have a future that other people could only dream of brushing with their fingers.

    There are much greater things than Al-Haitham in Kaveh's destiny.

    Sometimes all it takes is ten years.

    Summary

    What Alhaitham mistakes for ribbons are actually vines: verdant tendrils that curl around Kaveh’s limbs and bind his wrists above his head. Sprawls of greenery crawl over his freckled skin and spiral around his throat, his thighs, his hips.

    And between Kaveh’s legs, a thick stalk fucking deep into his ass, pulling out moan after broken moan.

    Kaveh discovers a creative use for his Vision. Alhaitham very much enjoys the sight.

    Summary

    “Ah, because you’ve had so many kinky escapades,” Kaveh laughs, drawing a snicker from Cyno next to him.

    What he doesn’t expect, is for Alhaitham to play along.

    “Exactly, I would know,”

    The three pause for a moment, before they explode in laughter.

    Summary

    Kaveh gets stuck while working on his latest architectural project in the Traveler’s teapot—literally.

    “Ugh! You ass!” Kaveh wriggles his hips uselessly and stomps his foot against the ground. “I’m stuck in a fucking wall, and instead of helping me—”

    “So you do want help?” Alhaitham asks. His fingers reach around and deftly unbutton Kaveh’s pants. “There. Now Junior Kaveh can breathe.”

    “I can’t believe you,” Kaveh mutters.

    He doesn’t tell Alhaitham to stop, though.

    Ugh. He can’t believe himself.

    Summary

    Kaveh, tired of his subtle passes and invitations being ignored, takes matters into his own hands. Which is how he ends up standing in front of Alhaitham in the living room in a slinky silken robe of red and gold silk.

    Alhaitham frowns. “If you want my attention, you just have to ask,” he says, and Kaveh could choke the life out of him because he’s been asking for Alhaitham’s attention for the last five days.

    Instead of dignifying that with a response, Kaveh pulls the knot of his robe undone and lets the silk spill from his shoulders and pool around his bare feet.

    When subtle invitations fail to get Alhaitham's attention, Kaveh dresses up in lingerie to make his desires crystal clear.

    Summary

    And despite that... Kaveh is… “Lovesick?”

    Kaveh’s hands move to cover his face, palms muffling his words as he mutters, “It’s—not quite like that.”

    “Well, the ‘sick’ aspect is accurate, at least.”

    “No shit,” Kaveh snorts. “The ‘love’ component, though—it’s, uh—”

    “You’re not in love?”

    He coughs. “The greenhouse in my lungs begs to differ. I—it’s more that my body is mourning a love it knows can’t ever be requited.”

    For all the negative feelings Alhaitham’s encountered over the past twelve hours, the sensation that creeps through him now is…

    Unfamiliar.

    Unknowable.

    Despite all the languages he’s fluent in, Alhaitham is unable to conjure a word or phrase with which he can immediately label it. He just knows that whatever this feeling is, it’s unbelievably unpleasant. Like his body is stationary, yet his internal organs are plummeting into the Abyss.

    “You love someone who doesn’t love you back?” he asks after a moment.

    Kaveh has Hanahaki. That much is known. But who he loves, and whether Alhaitham will be able to save him, is up in the air.

    Summary

    “You're mentioned in the ‘Funding’ segment.”

    “For citation?”

    “For in-person guidance and aid.”

    Kaveh snorts. “I haven't agreed to any aid this year; I'm not teaching.”

    “No, but Payam seems quite sure you'd enjoy his thesis topic and humbly requests your expertise in the situation.” A divot appears in between Kaveh's eyebrows as he purses his lips.

     

    An odd research submission begins paving the way to a dangerous inclination bordering on obsession. In a wholly illogical sense, the lingering obsession focuses on his roommate.

    A visceral string of events begins, with a temple devoted to the deceased Goddess of Flowers being the epicenter.

    Summary

    After the first day of the Interdarshan Championship, Kaveh asks Alhaitham to praise him during sex—because although the two of them disdain each other, they somehow keep ending up in bed together.

    “Strong,” Alhaitham murmurs, kissing from Kaveh’s thigh to his hip. “Resolute.”

    Stop, Kaveh wants to say. You’re wrong, you’re lying, you’re cruel.

    But he asked for this. He asked Alhaitham to take him to bed and praise him, to make him feel like he’s not a complete failure.

    Alhaitham knows that Kaveh is none of the words leaving his mouth. Kaveh is neither strong nor resolute, and he is certainly not enough.

    But Alhaitham is a linguist. And that means he’s good with words, Kaveh supposes—even when he doesn’t mean them.

    Summary

    "I don't want to really date anyone. It's so stupid, I just need to pretend date someone until Jiang Cheng gets his act together, then go back to my own life." He stares at his empty coffee cup.

    "Date me," Lan Zhan says. Then he looks at Wei Ying's empty cup. "Would you like another cup of coffee?"

    "Always," Wei Ying says automatically. "But wait, what."

    "I'll get you another cup." Lan Zhan rises smoothly from the table.

    "No, wait, hang on." Wei Ying grabs his wrist before he can take the cup and Lan Zhan freezes up, staring down at where Wei Ying is hanging on to him. "Fuck, sorry, I'll—" Wei Ying hastily lets go of his wrist. "Sorry, I—what did you mean?"

    "I can pretend to date you," Lan Zhan says. "You take it with cream and sugar, correct?"

    The first time you touch someone you're fated to love, you leave a mark on their skin. If they will love you in return, they'll mark you where you touched them. The deeper the color, the deeper the connection.

    Wei Ying has no marks at all.
