    Summary

    In which Kaveh walks out of an interview and somehow still lands the job.

    “Are you sure you have the right person?” he asked, mouth gaping. “Kaveh Paradisaea?”

    “Yes, sir. Did you not apply for the position of secretary here at the Akademiya?”

    “I did.” He cleared his throat. “Yes, I did, my apologies. I wasn’t under the impression that my interview had gone that well.”

    “Mr Alhaitham was impressed by your honesty, directness, and succinctness,” the cheery voice replied. “He said this was exactly what he was looking for.”

    Summary

    “Alhaitham, have you seen the wrapping paper anywhere?”

    That was a common question being thrown around their household lately, and Kaveh mentally kicked himself for it every time. He peeked his head out of the study just in time for the aforementioned roll of cardboard to be thrown right in his general direction, the now loosened packing material landing on the hardwood floor with a soft thud before rolling to a stop right at his feet. Alhaitham just caught his gaze with that familiar deadpan stare of his, teal and amber eyes glancing his way over the edge of his most recent flight-of-fancy book of the week where he sat on the divan, before going back to reading.

    “You keep losing track of it, maybe you should get glasses soon,” Alhaitham snarkily replied, followed by the sound of a page turning the exact moment Kaveh bent down to pick up the roll with an overdramatic scoff.

    “The least you could do is help, you know. They’re your friends too.”

    Alhaitham, again, just shrugged, his eyes not leaving the page. “I do help. I’m providing moral support.”

    -

    Or: Alhaitham doesn't seem to understand why Kaveh keeps acting strange around him as the holidays approach. Time to find out why.

    Summary

    "I'm tired of pretending," Kaveh says. He places their palms on top of each other, shifting his fingers. If he were to curl his hand up, their fingers would lace together. "Of this … game."

    If Alhaitham's heart picks up in his chest, that's for him to know, and if Kaveh glances at him knowingly, that's between the two of them.

    "What game?"


    In the end, all it takes is Kaveh.

    Summary

    "...marry me and we consolidate finances."

    "Wh-what? Alhaitham you can't just say things like that! People will think you're serious."

    Alhaitham looked up at Kaveh, expression neutral. "They are all logical solutions--"

    "I'm not about to get married just because it's logical."

    Or

    There are many practical reasons for marriage, as Alhaitham likes to point out. Kaveh comes to realize that love is a factor as well.

    Summary

    "I am currently bonded to your blueprints."

    It starts with a cracked bottle of resin and a moment of sleep-deprived clumsiness.

    It ends on a balcony under the Sumeru stars. Between the scent of cedarwood oil and the snip of silver shears, Kaveh finally maps a geography he’s been staring at for a decade.

    Or:

    Kaveh cuts Alhaitham's hair, and Alhaitham reveals he's been keeping excellent records of how long he's loved him.

    Summary

    Kaveh runs a hand down his bumpy arms. “You’re shivering.”

    That Al-Haitham knows.

    “Are you cold?” Kaveh asks.

    Al-Haitham isn’t sure. There’s a sticky-hot discomfort near his legs, where they’ve been under his heavy blanket all day. But from his waist up, he trembles, something missing. All he knows for sure is that he wants Kaveh to be here, to feel it.

    “I’m cold,” he replies, his voice coming out as a whine.

    Or: In the wake of the Interdarshan Championship, Al-Haitham dreams that Kaveh has already left, leaving his home empty without him. He wakes up in a sweat, Kaveh sees that he is taken care of.

    Summary

    “Thank you,” Kaveh repeated. And then, clearing his throat, “I apologise for the indiscretion, but just so I don’t misunderstand things and make a fool of myself, are you and Sir Flins a couple?”

    Illuga turned a bright shade of pink, and his eyes scurried away towards the floor. “Ah— No offence taken, but no. What… what gave you that impression?”

    Alhaitham snorted. Kaveh smacked him from under the table.

    “Oh, my mistake then.”

    “He was very obviously flirting with you,” Alhaitham added. “But it seems that might just be his personality.”

    Summary

    Alhaitham makes a point to disagree with Kaveh on every little thing, always having some frustratingly well-thought out rebuttal to Kaveh’s carefully-crafted arguments.

    It was infuriating.

    It was thrilling.

    Still, Kaveh extends a hand.

    A handshake.

    An olive branch.

    A truce.

    or: snippets of Alhaitham and Kaveh falling in love over and over again (both online and offline)

    Summary

    Kaveh has been drowning quietly for months.

    Debt. Work. Alcohol. Silence.

    Alhaitham notices, of course. He always notices.
    He simply assumes Kaveh will handle it, like he always does.

    Until the night he doesn’t.

    A broken vase.
    A forgotten anniversary.
    A quiet riverbank.

    And the terrifying realization that Alhaitham almost lost him.

    Summary

    Kaveh's life falls apart in the dead of night. He is spared the cruelty of having to watch it crumble, but there is no mercy in the rubble that awaits him the following morning when he rushes to the construction site of his latest project.

    A collapse due to faulty blueprint, they all say. With compassion, with apathy, with pity.

    Kaveh just wishes someone would believe in him.

    Summary

    The air in the house feels especially stilted, like a sentence left hanging. Or maybe it's just him that's been left hanging. He debates going to bed early and just sleeping the rest of his birthday away, but for some reason he stays up, keeping silent vigil.

    It reminds him of the birthdays right after their thesis fell apart— and before that, the birthdays after the death of his grandmother. He realizes, belatedly, that the only times he's spent his birthday alone have been after the loss of those closest to him.

    ---

    In which Kaveh's birthday gift to Alhaitham is a week with the house to himself.

    Summary

    “I found the letter on his desk” Kaveh slurred, his voice barely audible against the rim of a bottle. “I read it. It was clearly written to someone he has intimacy with already. I’m telling you,” he hiccuped. “Alhaitham has a secret lover.”

    “Right.” Lambad pulled the bottle away from him. “You better stop drinking before you spill all of this to him when he comes pick you up.”
