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.

The Scientific Applications of Chalk in Carnal Exploits: a Study by Kaeya Alberich by Princeliest
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
08 Jan 2022
Tags
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.

Summary
In spring, I planted a little seed, sprout quickly, please, grow up quickly.
--
Time changes things. Liyue, as in the city itself, changed very little. A new building here, a new shop there. A new cook that took over a food stall they liked and now the flavour was not quite the same. And yet, as much as those small things morphed and transformed and adapted, the city as a whole didn't seem any different for it.
Yet everything in the city felt different, because the people were different.
Now, nearly a decade later, he barely reaches Chongyun’s shoulders with the top of his head, and even then it’s with his heeled shoes. The years had been kind to his best friend. Tall and muscular, Chongyun’s handsome and cold aura was well matched to his position as the lead disciple of his exorcist clan. His eyes, previously filled with boyish shyness, were now calm and confident, steady when he decided to make direct eye contact. It all made girls weak at the knees sometimes, and Xingqiu sympathizes with them, because Archons, he gets it.
--
Or Xingqiu and Chongyun nurture the budding seedling of love that has been growing between them and we follow along for the courting process.

Summary
Christmas was about belonging, so it was only natural that Vanitas would spend it alone. Or that's what he thought until Noé asks Vanitas to wander around Paris with him on Christmas Eve.
Luna's words rang clear in his subconscious, "Someday, even after I am gone, I hope someone will hold you close like this. If you don’t close your heart, you who are forever cold, I’m sure, will meet someone who will keep you warm. " When Vanitas saw Noé smile he felt warmth bloom in his chest. And it grew and grew until Vanitas thought he was burning from the inside out.

Summary
The sensation had been too much. Every single nerve throughout his body had come alive like a live-wire. Everything had, for the lack of a better term, tingled when Noe passed his hand over the crown of his head, fingers snagging at the very ends of his bangs. It was clear that Noe had meant it in a supportive, friendly gesture, but the reception was anything but.

Summary
He hasn’t looked at Sylvain’s eyes since he’d gotten here, not really, or at least not like this. It’s funny; for how long he’s seen them, Felix probably couldn’t have recalled the color if someone had asked. Such an oddly light brown shade, nearly like his cello. It was everywhere in his life. Maybe that’s why it had escaped him.
It’s nearly frustrating, to think he could have forgotten something so important, and yet that thought makes him more frustrated still. Wasn’t that the goal, to forget all about Sylvain Gautier?
After barely finishing his undergrad studying cello performance, Felix is stuck in every aspect of his life: his career is going nowhere, he can't stand talking to his family, and he has maybe two friends. Crashing at Ingrid's apartment was all he had, until she suddenly decided to let world-traveling, friend-abandoning, breakout New York Times author of the year Sylvain Gautier crash with them, too. To make matters worse, she panicked and lied to her father by saying Sylvain and Felix were dating. Now, Felix can't run away from his art, family, Sylvain, or himself.

Summary
And there, in the too-bright evening, Sylvain saw a black, person-shaped blip in the distance.
Sylvain frowned. He hadn't even seen a gas station in miles. Who the hell would be walking out here in the dead heat of June? An idiot? A serial killer? Maybe a cactus. But as he drove closer, he confirmed that the figure was indeed a person, one who was wearing a black hoodie despite the heat. The person, boy, was sharp and thin with long hair tied back and hands stuffed into the pockets of his dark wash jeans. There was something about the stiff set of his shoulders that said that he might stab Sylvain if Sylvain were to let him. So, Sylvain did what any reasonable person would do - he pulled over.
Sylvain Gautier has just turned 21 years old, finished his junior year of college and has no damn clue what he wants from his life other than for it to stop suffocating him. So, he takes a road trip.

I Won't Say (I'm in Love) by FancifulFollies

Summary
Love was a foreign concept to Sylvain - it didn't matter if it was being given, or being received, he didn't recognize it. So it's laughable, really, that this would be his downfall. Sylvain hadn't even thought that he could love. But apparently he could.
And it was going to kill him.
