    Summary

    “It’s a simple cold, Kaveh, not some novel pathogen.”

    “And because neither of us have to work today, you’re going to focus on getting better quickly.” Kaveh traces a finger down the bridge of Alhaitham’s nose.

    Alhaitham opens his mouth to respond, giving way to a hoarse cough before words. “Unnecessary. Don’t bother yourself over something so inconsequential.”

    “Haitham, darling.” Kaveh murmurs in a low, syrupy tone, cradling his lover’s face and feeling Alhaitham melt under his touch. “Let your senior take care of you.”

    Summary

    In the event Alhaitham saw Kaveh again, he thought Kaveh might've looked at him like a stranger. Like he didn't know him.

    But here, now, Kaveh looks at Alhaitham like he knows him. Like they're anything but strangers.

    He does. They are.

    They're so much more than that and they both know it. You can't throw away a decades worth of friendship and hatred and joy and heartache away in a single movement.

    They knew each other. They know each other now.

    But the difference between now and then is that today, instead of going home together, they will go their separate ways.

    Alhaitham, to the empty home they once shared.

    Kaveh, to the new life he's building.

    //or, kaveh moves out but can't seem to stay away.

    Summary

    They're broken in and made soft, like the pages of the old tomes housed on the shelves around them. They break new ground, like cracking the spine of a book. And, much like a shooting star, they shine and crash.

    -

    "Oh, now you're just being a dick on purpose!" His senior rages, hands falling to his lap. ​

    ​"An astute observation, senior."

    ​"You're such a brat sometimes," Kaveh spits, face souring, "​It makes me want to wipe that stupid grin off your face."

    ​Al-Haitham hums, both brows raised, "And how would you do that, Kaveh?" He finally closes his book, leaning backwards onto his palms. It's now that Al-Haitham gets a good look at Kaveh, his angry expression sending a lance of shameful heat through him. Kaveh looked good like this, so open and raw, the polished and kind Light of Kshahrewar shaking in his anger.

    Summary

    There are another loud series of beeps, and Alhaitham’s eyebrows are pinched together, his mouth set in a tight line as he turns to look towards the construct, before he looks back at Kaveh, expression pained and tight.
    “I’m sorry,” he says, voice trembling with strain, and no, please don’t leave me, please don’t let me go-

    Kaveh and Alhaitham get trapped in a cavern together.

    Summary

    A letter comes to a house in Sumeru City.

    My light,

    I have been absent from you too long. For that, I have no apology worthy enough for the forgiveness I ask of you now. I am ill.

    ...

    Kaveh's mother gets sick. This serves as a catalyst in many respects.
