    Summary

    Kaveh knew he was a horrible person; the Man of his Dreams (that is, the one whose fingers Kaveh had just been imagining wrapped around his cock) had come to life and didn’t know that the broad expanse of his person was created by Kaveh’s guiding hand. He didn’t know that Kaveh was effectively a higher power in this pocket universe and the puny, seventeen year old boy blushing furiously at Kaveh’s penis (which had quickly gone flaccid) was the result of a cosmic character selection screen that Kaveh swiped through with his dick and not his brain.

    Kaveh's existential battle with Getting Isekai'd happens three decades too late.

    Summary

    The kinds of bad personalities you'd hate in real life are always extremely appealing in fiction. Or that's how Kaveh tries to defend all the fanart on his twitter account of Al-Haitham, the protagonist of the worst web novel ever written.

    Flower of Paradise Lost is a coming of age turned political drama turned stallion novel. Its lack of commitment to one genre, elementary-level prose, and terribly written characters make it borderline unreadable. Al-Haitham is its only saving grace: steadfast, handsome, and unyielding, he carries the story on his broad and sculpted shoulders.

    When the final chapter is posted, Kaveh finds himself unceremoniously dropped into the body of the scum villain that shares his name - Al-Haitham's closest friend and the one who pushes him into a portal to the abyss, corrupting his soul forever. If Kaveh followed the pragmatic protagonist's logic, he'd push Al-Haitham into the abyss without mercy - he's only a character in a novel, after all. But Kaveh's bleeding heart has always been his downfall.

    Transmigration! Romance! Endless miscommunication! It's a SVSSS AU.

    Summary

    Once Kaveh got very sick and found a raised lump on his throat. It hurt to touch. For three seconds, or maybe four, Kaveh hoped desperately there were more: little lumps under his skin eating away at his insides until there was nothing left, until his body was subsumed and all that was left was rot. That was how his father’s brother died but Kaveh was so young he couldn’t remember his father’s brother’s face.

    That night Kaveh’s mother batted his hand away from his neck and said in a rare moment of frustrating clarity, It’s good if it hurts. That means your body knows something is wrong, so it won’t stay. It’ll be gone soon.

    Later, Kaveh slept under his bed and wondered if his mother’s words were true. Was it good to hurt? She didn’t like it when Kaveh cried, and at that age Kaveh cried a lot, even when he wasn’t sick and even when he wasn’t sad, though he’d learned to cry quietly and alone. Maybe that was good too. He was getting rid of it, and it would be gone soon.

    Summary

    When his dark circles turned a gruesome, necrotic violet, and the whites of his eyes were split open by yawning vermilion cracks, Kaveh decided that it could not be exhaustion because Kaveh knew exhaustion and it could not be an infection because Kaveh did not have time for an infection. Somehow, without noticing, he had died.

    Kaveh dies and wanders into paradise.

    Summary

    Kaveh once thought that he would run out of himself. He would give and give and one day there wouldn’t be any left and then he would die. But there is no dying in e-cigarette purgatory and there is no salvation in waiting for eternity, except maybe if Kaveh waits for one more eternity there will be.
