    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

    “You– You can’t see any colors AT ALL???”

    “... I believe I just said that.”

    “How can you be so… so nonchalant about that!?!”

    (...Because for as long as he could remember, his world had only ever consisted of black, white and countless shades of grey).

    Summary

    “Regulus.”

    “James,” Regulus said, clearly annoyed at the intrusion in his day.

    “Will you go out with me?” James felt like he needed to cross his fingers behind his back or throw some salt over his shoulder or something—do something for good luck.

    “No,” he said easily. “Are you coming in to see Sirius or shall I lock you out?”

    James sighed. “Yeah I’ll hang out with Sirius. I need to cry to someone, I’ve just been rejected.”

    Summary

    “Do you swear it?” Regulus looks deep into James’ eyes, waiting for the faltering, but there is none.
    “I swear it,” he says, gripping Regulus’ arm tighter.
    There’s a moment of silence, and then it is James who twists their arms, locking the charm in place. Not that either of them will remember it the following day, drunk as they are.

    ————————

    James and Regulus get really drunk and make an unbreakable vow. James swears that Regulus will be in love with him by the end of the year, and Regulus swears not to push him away and make him try. When they wake up the following day, they remember nothing of it. But everyone knows what happens if you don’t go through with it, so they can do nothing but try to recall and respect their drunken promises or be met by sweet old death. As if this wasn’t enough, their everyday problems seem to double by the minute. Between the vow and life as a student,

    It’s about to be a hell of a year.
