    Summary

    The breeze sifted sweetly through the openings of the pillars lining the drop-off, and the gossamer curtains that draped from the arches fluttered effervescent around them. Phainon turned to Mydei then, his gaze soft and rueful.

    "Mydeimos,” he said, his hand finding Mydei’s and drawing a sharp, anticipatory inhale from the Kremnoan prince. “You once told me your weakness, and now I will tell you mine.”

    Mydei’s heart sank and a terrible pit churned in his stomach. “You don't need—”

    Phainon interrupted him with a half-hearted shake of the head. “If anything happens, Mydeimos, and the other Chrysos Heirs or Okhema… if even Amphoreus itself is threatened because of me, my weakness is you.

    Or in which, Mydei must deal with the consequences of his curse of immortality lasting longer than expected.

    Summary

    He engraved De’s face that day into his memory. How his eyes widened the tiniest bit before assuming his stoic appearance, how he immediately straightened his back once he'd caught sight of tousled, silver hair.

    “You're here,” De had said. It came out quieter than the usual bass of his voice, round around the edges and all candy-like.

    “Yeah,” Phainon laughed. “I'm here.”

    Enamored, Phainon finds himself a regular at the local bakery.

    Summary

    He daydreams in the eternal darkness when he slumbers in Okhema, the city of eternal light. He dreams of the days they basked in eternal light when he fights in Castrum Kremnos in the eternal darkness. And that is enough, as the responsibility of a Chrysos Heir is not for themselves, but for Amphoreus.

    Or, Mydei daydreams about a kiss (not on the lips), and Phainon dreams about a hug. Even apart, the other’s presence is so very clear in their minds.

    Summary

    “I didn’t think you would make it!” He hears Phainon shout over the thinning horde.

    Mydei takes a titankin by the neck, crushing it. He uses the crumbling head of his prey to disable another trying to creep upon Phainon’s blind-side, drawing a surprised yelp from him. “Did you forget, Savior, that I said I'd be the one to drag you back should trouble ever find you.”

    “As much as I appreciate your help, it isn't as though I can’t handle this on my own!”

    “It’s been more than a fortnight since we’ve heard from you!”

    "That can't be right." An arch of blue and they were down to less than a dozen. "I sent a message by teleslate not three days ago.”

    Strife’s Trial leaves Phainon a lonesome wanderer in the golden fields of his own grief. Mydei volunteers to bring him back.

    Summary

    Phainon is a top-tier assassin—silent, precise, unstoppable. Or at least, he was until Mydei, his target who he accidentally saved.

    Somehow, every time he is finally mentally prepared to get rid of him, Mydei wanders too close, flashes a smile, or—worst of all—starts a conversation. Phainon should be annoyed. Instead, he’s distracted. And maybe, just maybe, a little smitten.

    Summary

    There was a great disturbance in the air.

    "Oh, don't be so dramatic," Kaveh huffed.

    Well, if Alhaitham were in a snarky mood, he would've retorted something along the lines of, "It takes one to know one," but alas, his fur was standing on end as if there was static in the air. His tail flicked to and fro as he glared daggers towards the fuzzy thing in his roommate's arms.

    Kaveh has brought home a tiny, injured kitten, and Alhaitham must learn to live with it, eventually.

    Summary

    “Hmph.” Kaveh steps closer. "So why choose to listen to my voice even when I’m complaining about you?”

    Alhaitham shuts his eyes. “Just because.”

    “Being a little vague there, Scribe Alhaitham.”

    “I just…” Alhaitham sighs. “I just really like your voice.”

    Or, Kaveh learns sign language because he fears that Alhaitham is growing tired of his voice. He doesn't understand that Alhaitham actually... loves it.

    “Kaveh.”

    “And he—huh? Yes?”

    “You do realize that was Alhaitham, right?”

    A long pause. “Who?”

    Tighnari’s palm meets his face. “Sorry, of course you of all people wouldn’t care to know about these things.” He clears his throat. And then, “Prince Alhaitham.”

    A beat. “Oh.”

    In which Kaveh is a tailor indebted to Dori, Alhaitham is the Prince of Sumeru, and they meet at a masquerade. Or, a little twist on the Cinderella trope.

    Perhaps, Kaveh's sleepiness made him walk towards the light instead of turning around and going back to bed to not impose on a potentially private moment. Maybe, Kaveh's sixth sense convinced him that something was fundamentally wrong.

    or

    To the surprise of absolutely no one, Ratio comes out as trans.

    Summary

    Alhaitham couldn’t pinpoint the reason for his uneasiness until someone walked into his office unannounced to discuss something with him. He sighed to himself, instinctively reaching for the button on his headphones to mute the sound around him so that he could focus on his work without being disturbed by someone who didn’t even have the courtesy to knock–

    And then it didn’t work.

    Alarm bells quickly went off in Alhaitham’s head. A fluke, certainly. He must have not pressed the button hard enough. It wouldn’t be the first time a small mistake like that happened.

    He presses it again, harder this time to ensure that it was actually turned on.

    Nothing.

    Okay. Maybe he should be panicking a little bit now.

    Summary

    “Do your people pray?”

    Kaveh hummed in confirmation, just as he finished one attachment. He let out a small whoop in celebration and then scooted down the grass to get started on another.

    “And you answer?”

    Kaveh paused, on his knees with a piece of bamboo in his hand. He looked at Alhaitham. “What?”

    “Your people pray for water, and you give it to them.”

     

    _____

    The wells in Kaveh's village run dry. In his attempt to solve the problem, he meets Alhaitham. They learn a lot about each other throughout the process, and fall in love in the meantime.
