    Summary

    "So, what great building did our master architect work on this time?"

    Nothing. Four days ago, Kaveh thought he would never work on anything again.

    "Where were you when Sumeru needed you most?"

    Dying.

    (Or: the one where Kaveh was born with Eleazar)

    Summary

    This is how Kaveh grows up—well-loved and loving, with a pencil in his hand and starlight in his eyes. This is how he grows up, until his father leaves for the desert one day, and never comes back.

    kaveh, through the years.

    Summary

    Rtawahist scholars have a curious theory about parallel worlds, where the stars of a person’s constellation are weaved in slightly different ways, creating an infinite number of universes where they make different choices, lead different lives. He had told Al-Haitham about it once, who had declared it outlandish and based on pure conjecture, but Kaveh had found the idea interesting.

    Perhaps, then, there exists a world, where Kaveh's life isn’t so at odds with him. Where Kaveh can reach out in this moment and pull Al-Haitham into his arms.

    Summary

    “Well, that’s your loss.”

    “Is it? I think it’s really his loss, little firefly. If you forgot, I broke up with him.” Tamala tutted her tongue as if she were a child. The fire in her veins burned a little brighter. “He gave me his pin and everything as if one could pin down the wind. The poor pup is probably still heartbroken.”

    “He’s already moved on.”

    Probably. Hopefully.

    Interest brightened her eyes until they glittered. She crept closer until barely any space remained between them. Her knees buckled, but she forced herself to meet her gaze.

    “Is that so? Well, color me intrigued.”

    Summary

    Yoo Joonghyuk’s head tilts, and he looks at Kim Dokja almost curiously, like a house cat watching a flock of doves beyond a glass window pane.

    “I used to think that you made me behave in a way that is unlike myself, but lately I’ve begun to think that what you do to me is exactly how I’m meant to be.”
