    Summary

    “If you know about a vishap’s cycle, you know marginally less than I do. I have had to draw my own conclusions from experience and research.” Neuvillette folds his hands across his lap. Not for the first time, he desperately wishes there were more dragons in the world. “It is an overwhelming surge of instincts every few months. It compels me to nest, to protect what is mine, and mostly to… to… breed," he grits out.

    Wriothesley licks his lips. His breath wavers. Neuvillette waits for him to compose his polite rejection of their entire relationship.

    “You want me to breed you, sweetheart?”

    Neuvillette will swear to his dying breath that he is not the one that pounces.

    OR: Wriothesley breeds Neuvillette so hard he unlearns shame.

    Summary

    The problem, Kaveh decides, wasn’t just that Alhaitham had no range, even when the similarities were so close all he’d have to do was change his name. It was that Nilou somehow expected him to fix it. Performance chemistry was not something you could brute-force by proximity and stubbornness and sheer willpower. Kaveh has already spent a full semester proving that Alhaitham was biologically immune to charm.

    Nilou rubbed her temples.

    “Okay, look. You’re actors—well, one of you is. You’re meant to create illusions. Maybe just… pretend you don’t hate each other? And then hate each other when it calls for it.”

    “We don’t hate each other,” Kaveh snapped.

    Alhaitham, beside him, nodded agreeably. “I simply find him taxing.”

    In Sumeru University’s production of Barefoot in the Park, Kaveh’s original scene partner breaks a leg. Literally. His insufferable roommate steps up to the plate. Only: they have zero chemistry and turn to alternatives, i.e, method acting.

    But it’s fine, they’re adults. What could go wrong?
