    Summary

    “Why are you looking at me like that?” Kaveh mumbles, without opening his eyes. He’s been reading, too—or pretending to, which is more likely, because the upside-down architectural plans on the table have not moved in half an hour, and his pencil is behind his ear instead of in his hand.

    “I’m not,” Alhaitham says, too fast. Which is absurd. Of course he is. The entire point of his visual cortex is to perceive the world around him, and unfortunately, the world currently includes Kaveh. Shirtless. Glowing. Freckled.

    “You’re making that face again,” Kaveh says, one eye cracking open, voice annoyingly smug for someone still half-asleep. “The one where you’re trying to suppress an emotion and failing.”

    “I don’t suppress emotions,” Alhaitham replies. “I manage them. Responsibly.”

    Kaveh snorts. “Oh, is that what the internal aneurysm looks like? Good to know.”

    In which Kaveh weaponizes freckles and Alhaitham forgets the scientific method.

    Summary

    Kaveh runs into disaster after disaster trying to come back home from a job. He ends up getting pretty injured by the time he makes it back home, and surprisingly, Alhaitham has been very diligent in helping Kaveh bandage his wounds and has even been watching over him as he contracts a fever. Kaveh is left wondering why Alhaitham is being so considerate all of a sudden.

    Summary

    Kaveh’s melting heart takes in stray cats at every possible moment (much against Alhaitham’s good advice). He then decides to adopt a desert fox.

    “Listen, Haitham, I know what you’re gonna say! But hear me out. She can sleep out in the garden. Or in my room, so it won’t bother you at all! I swear she’ll be fully under my responsibility. I promise I tried to leave her behind, but she totally insisted on coming with me! Followed me all the way home, just because I gave her some water. The poor thing was so thirsty.”

    Alhaitham blinked, sighing deeply. The shock had mostly worn away: ridiculous as the situation was, it was actually quite in line with his roommate’s usual behaviour.

    Summary

    “Such a sweet little junior,” Kaveh cooed as Alhaitham brought him a cup of tea and a tin of biscuits.

    Alhaitham replied with nothing other than a low huff while he sat down next to Kaveh on the divan, seemingly unbothered by the comment which would have surely warranted an impromptu amputation had it come from anyone else.

    “Is the sweet little junior in the room with us?” Tighnari asked, raising an eyebrow.

    Or: Alhaitham and Kaveh are remarkably touchy with each each other, so their friends decide to take the matter into their own hands.

    Summary

    “I know I love him, because he’s the only face I can remember right now,” Alhaitham observed, poking absentmindedly at his stitches while Tighnari desperately pried his hand away.

    Or: When a groggily disoriented Alhaitham wakes up still under the effects of anaesthesia, he can’t recall his own name, but the same cannot be said for his roommate’s.
