    Summary

    The washing machine hums in the background as Kaveh slowly unravels everything he has ever known.

    There are worse places to realize you are in love. There are also much better places. More romantic, at least. Not much is very romantic about the floor of a closet-turned-laundry room in your ex-best-friend-now-roommate’s condo; where Kaveh is currently sprawled. It smells strongly of laundry detergent. Maybe it’s just the fumes getting to him—that would be an awfully convenient solution.

    Love has always had a tendency of doing terrible things to him.

    Summary

    Ignorantly, Alhaitham thought if he ignored the ache in his chest, as he always did, it would eventually fade like all things do.

    It did not.

    It deepened and deepened.

    And now.

    It does what unhealed wounds do.

    It splits open and ruins him in the process.

    Summary

    Kaveh is inflicted by a curse that makes him only able to tell the truth.

    For someone who's fairly honest and wears his heart on his sleeve, this shouldn't be a big deal, right?

    Unfortunately, he has some feelings he'd like to keep hidden...

    Summary

    One day, Kaveh wakes up and finds himself in the past, with the chance to undo the mistakes that made his life miserable.
    But he soon realises that not all of it was miserable, and he might have lost a little more than he expected.

    “Kaveh,” Alhaitham said, his beautiful scarlet-green eyes staring at him strangely. “Are you alright?”
    Kaveh supposed that Alhaitham must have thought that he was crazy for crashing into him then just freezing up. A little defensively, Kaveh replied, averting his eyes, “You shouldn’t read and walk, it’s dangerous.”
    Alhaitham raised an eyebrow at him. “Sure,” he said, unperturbed and unaffected like he always used to be.
    It broke Kaveh’s heart to see Alhaitham so closed off- nothing like the one that he had left back home, in another time, in a time that would now never be.

    (But maybe he was wrong. Maybe it was a time that still could be.)

    Summary

    Alhaitham wakes up with amnesia. The hows and whys of waking up with amnesia don’t seem to concern him as much as trying to figure out what the deal between him and his very attractive roommate is. Meanwhile, Kaveh has been saddled with an amnesiac roommate, many questions about how he ended up with an amnesiac roommate, and more than one love confession from the very same amnesiac roommate.

    For the sake of his sanity, he’ll ignore that third thing.

    Summary

    Alhaitham has been cursed. The curse can only be broken by a kiss from someone who truly loves him. According to Alhaitham, such a person does not exist, so he prepares for the inevitable and keeps quiet about the cure.

    Kaveh can do nothing but watch as Alhaitham’s condition deteriorates. He helps to take care of him as things progress, but he still feels useless. If only there were something he could do…

    “You’re so warm,” Kaveh utters. He brings his hand up to touch his cheek.

    “Mm,” Alhaitham hums, leaning into the touch.

    Kaveh keeps his hand where it is and gives him a sad smile. “You only get like this when you’re sick or drunk.”

    “Pathetic?”

    Kaveh shakes his head. “Affectionate. It’s… kind of nice, to be honest.” He laughs. “To tell you the truth, I used to try to get you drunk just to see you like this.”

    If his cheeks weren’t already burning, he might blush. “Really.”

    “Your attitude is easier to handle when you’re all clingy,” Kaveh admits.

    "Well, I guess you get to see it one last time,” Alhaitham says.

    Kaveh’s expression sobers. “…I guess so.”

    Summary

    How humiliating, really, to be discussing this with someone Kaveh would be hard pressed to admit held a candle for. Not only was he admitting to being driven fruitlessly mad by his instincts quarterly, but he was also revealing that he was painfully single and without any prospects. It also felt uncomfortable to discuss this with Alhaitham, who had never expressed interest in this kind of stuff in the years Kaveh had known him. While Kaveh hadn’t had any experience of the sort either, he’d at least had his share of schoolyard crushes, fleeting things, until—

    “I can help.”

    or,
    Kaveh has a rare genetic disorder in which even though he is a male of his species, he experiences heats. He finds help in an unlikely source.

    Summary

    “What do you do with the flowers?”

    Al-Haitham paused. “What do you mean?”

    “Like, what do you do with the flowers you cough up? Do you keep them or…?”

    He furrowed his eyebrows. “What—why would I keep them? I obviously throw them away. Why are you asking?”

    “I was just wondering—I mean if you’re not using them—like, if I could possibly…have them?”

    Al-Haitham stared at him incredulously. “You want my unrequited love flowers?”

    “Yes?” Kaveh flushed red. “Since…since you’re not using them.”

    Since you’re not using them—

    “What the hell would I be using them for? What the hell are you using them for?”

    Al-Haitham has Hanahaki disease and coughs up mourning flowers. Kaveh asks if he can use them for his ascension materials.

    Summary

    A handsome guy buying flowers, knowing their meanings, tailoring a bouquet just for a coworker…

    Kaveh sighed dreamily as he carefully pruned the Silk Flowers (uniqueness, individuality, secret admiration) of their shriveling stamens, then grimaced at the irony of finding himself in front of them while ruminating on a customer.

    “Not like I’ll ever see him again,” Kaveh puffed.

    Little did he know.

    Summary

    “Kaveh,” he managed to choke out, voice wrecked, and Kaveh looked back up at his face, red eyes wild with fright. “’m sorry,” he murmured, weak, and Kaveh inhaled, reaching up to steady Alhaitham’s left shoulder.
    Oh, Alhaitham was pitching sideways. His head felt like it was too heavy, lolling to the side, and Kaveh was speaking louder then, faster, but colours were dancing nauseatingly in Alhaitham’s vision, and his extremities were beginning to tingle and go numb. He shivered, involuntarily, coming to the realisation that he was freezing cold, and Kaveh’s hand cupped his cheek, words slurring together in a loud and frantic mess.

    Alhaitham comes home in the early hours of the morning, bleeding in his desire for Kaveh.

    Summary

    Alhaitham does not get drunk.

    Kaveh has known him for a long, long time, and he has never seen the man drunk.

    Has he slipped sideways into a parallel universe? Alhaitham can’t be drunk. Alhaitham doesn’t get drunk. Why is Alhaitham drunk in his arms?


    Alhaitham doesn't get drunk, until he does, and Kaveh has to deal with the repercussions of Aether's impressive ability to put away drinks.

    Hey, I heard you were looking for a place to stay. My roommate also moved out recently so I have a room open.

     

    “You’re shitting me,” said Kaveh.

    “What?” Cyno tilted his head.

    Kaveh held out his phone. Cyno and Tighnari leaned over until the sides of their heads were touching as they read the message.

    Tighnari jerked away. “Al-Haitham sent you that?”

    “I didn’t know he had it in him,” said Cyno.

    “Had what?”

    “A charitable soul.”

    Kaveh needs a place to stay senior year of college and Al-Haitham has an open spot.
