    Summary

    Kaveh blinks up at the ceiling, her mind drifting ever so slightly. She thinks over the events that lead her to this moment, and how different her life might’ve been had she chosen not to make a single choice. If she’d never agreed to that project back in the Akademiya, she wouldn’t be here. If she hadn’t agreed to work on that building for Dori, she wouldn’t be here. If she hadn’t gone drinking at the Tavern that night, she wouldn’t be here.

    If she hadn’t gotten drunk a few nights ago with Alhaitham, she wouldn’t be here.

    Summary

    "That feeling is camaraderie, Monsieur Neuvillette. I'm sure it's hard to find someone who you can fully trust as the Chief Justice. I'm glad that I could be that person for you."

    Neuvillette was stunned by his words, his face solemn. He left it at that and nodded, looking at the skies as he submerged himself in his own thoughts.

    (Or an au in which Sigewinne is so done with the Chief Justice and the Duke ignoring their feelings for one another so she plots against the two.)

    Summary

    Tony and Steve have been secretly sleeping together for almost two years, before Steve has had enough of it. He knows Tony cares for him, but he won't admit it. So, he threatens to leave...and Steve is nothing if not a man of his word. He didn't know he'd get in an accident. And he definitely didn't realize how much Tony loved him.

    [or: Steve is met with a choice to either hang on or let go when he gets into a horrific accident, and he chooses to let go. His angel shows him the repercussions of this decisions so he knows what he'd be leaving behind. It wasn't what he expected in the slightest.]

    Summary

    “Oh, right – Alhaitham.” Kaveh claps a hand to his forehead. “Cyno, if you see him at the Akademiya tomorrow, don’t mention this to him, would you? I haven’t told him yet.”

    “Told him?” Cyno asks slowly, a wary glint in his eye. “What exactly haven’t you told him?”

    “That I’m getting married,” Kaveh grimaces. “I wanted to tell him myself – I suppose I do want him at the wedding after all, you know – but I didn’t get a chance yet. You know what it’s like, trying to have a conversation with him.”

     

    It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.
    Kaveh is a single man. That's about it, really.

     

    or: the one in which Kaveh gets married, but not to whom you think.

    Summary

    When Cyno speaks, Kaveh almost stains his white shirt with crimson, choked-up wine.

    “Make Alhaitham jealous.” He says, as if it’s the simplest and most obvious thing in the world.
