    Summary

    Kaveh and Alhaitham aren’t friends now, not anymore, but old habits are hard to quit. Somehow, on quiet evenings like this, they keep slipping under each other’s skin.

    “Kaveh.”

    Kaveh holds very still. His mouth is dry, but he quells the urge to lick his lips for fear of catching the taste of Alhaitham’s skin.

    Instead, he looks at Alhaitham, seeing the tension of his clenched jaw, the tint pinkening his cheeks. His eyes rise so their gazes meet, and Kaveh sees a question there. Understands the context of this touch, the finger at his mouth, the firm thigh nudging tight against his own.

    “It’s only sex,” Alhaitham had said, the first time they had relapsed in the sun-yellow kitchen.

    Summary

    Haitham’s uncharacteristic erraticness was having, oddly enough, the opposite effect on Kaveh. It was easier to find stable ground inside himself when the waves were choppy outside. Or maybe it was the bone-deep exhaustion of knowing that if he responded in kind, there wouldn’t even be ashes left to sift through.

    Or: when a kink scene goes strangely wrong, Kaveh trips over a longstanding rift in their relationship.

    Summary

    “Alhaitham, do you have any friends?”

    Alhaitham scowls and shuts down, turning away from this inane conversation.

    That’s so sad, Kaveh’s face says.

    Kaveh has a very expressive face. Alhaitham doesn’t have any problem reading it. It’s a very attractive face, and it’s currently making Alhaitham kind of want to blush, or scream, or run out of the building, and none of those are normal, helpful, or reasonable impulses.

    Summary

    Slowly, the fox looked up, and their eyes met. Just like that, it felt like it was enough. There would be no need for coaxing - rather, Cyno knew just this would provide all the relaxation Tighnari needed.

    This - the bond they had - would always be enough.

    “You’re home,” He breathed out, a voice so croaky that Cyno knew that he’d been muttering to himself all night, buried in work and refusing to rest until it was done.

    Cyno returns from a work trip only to find that his home was lacking the liveliness it usually had. Cyno knows that Tighnari needs all the comfort that he can offer, and he's willing to give it to him.

    Summary

    It comes out that the original intent in Albedo’s creation was less to be a lab assistant and more to be… well, a rather complex sex doll. It follows, he thinks, that he doesn’t have the ability to feel true desire in the same way that his lover does, but that he’s happy to provide it. After all, intimacy is its own reward, and Kaeya seems happy…

    It’s just... more difficult with Kaeya. When Kaeya fucks him, something builds in a way that it never did with Gold, something that leaves Albedo wet and aching even after they’re done, and he never gets to find out what it is—not when Kaeya finishes, and cleans him up with tender touches, and listens with excruciating care to Albedo, with a sadistic gleam in his eye, when he says that he doesn’t have the capacity to want.
