    Summary

    “Do you have a recommendation for a tradesman?” Alhaitham asked the moment Kaveh sat down at the kitchen table. Kaveh, eyes still slightly fogged from sleep, only rolled his eyes and reached for the mug of coffee in Alhaitham’s outstretched hand.

    “Good morning to you too,” he groused. “Yes, I slept well, thanks for asking.”

    - - -

    In which Kaveh is competent and Alhaitham is smitten.

    Summary

    Al-Haitham brings back a gift, or rather, hand me-down from Dehya. Scholars as they are, they figure it's better put to the test than for nothing else.

    Or, Kaveh wonders too much about Tevyat's sex toy industry.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” he says, though he doesn’t feel very sorry. “I think we started this conversation poorly. I don’t get much free time, and I usually spend it under this tree.”

    “I fail to see how this is my problem.”

    Kaveh grits his teeth.

    “I would really appreciate it if you would find a different tree to read under.”

    The stranger looks up. There’s a sharpness in his gaze that almost makes Kaveh want to fidget. This man is clearly mortal. Kaveh can sense the soul in him, surprisingly soft when contrasted with the razor’s blade of his eyes.

    “What’s your name?” the stranger asks. Kaveh, surprised by the question, responds without thinking.

    “Kaveh.”

    “Well, Kaveh,” he says, “I suggest you find a new tree.”

    Kaveh, an immortal god, meets Alhaitham, a perfectly average scholar, and takes it personally.

    Written for Vasileia: A Haikaveh AU Fantasy Zine.
