    Summary

    Kaveh woke up wanting to rot. To decay and wither in his bed.

    There are many things to do. He knows there are many things to do. There are commissions to finish and customers to meet soon and thus even more blueprints, and—

    But he can’t even bring himself out of bed.
    .
    Kaveh is exhausted, and Al-Haitham takes care of him.

    Summary

    He should have stayed in bed. He knew it. When he woke up today in the morning, he knew it. As he finally slipped off the shackles of the uneasy sleep he had been burdened with, the gaping hole in his heart, ripped in there by so many things from his past, was hurting like an infected wound. Even though Kaveh felt its presence since his life fell apart many years ago, he mostly managed to ignore it. Sometimes, even when he gets a soothing hug from Alhaitham or he has a particular fun night out with Cyno and Tighnari, he even forgets it. But not today.

    Summary

    Alhaitham steps closer, looking at Kaveh with an odd look in his eyes. He’s never seen it before.

    “Did you mean it?” He asks, his words slower this time. “That you love me?”

    “You–” Kaveh furrows his eyebrows, at a loss. “Were you even listening to me this whole time?”

    “Kaveh, please.”

    Alhaitham and Kaveh's relationship is supposed to move slowly. Yet, when Kaveh breaks down and Alhaitham takes care him, Kaveh accidentally blurts out "I love you" much too early.

    Summary

    Molly tried her best. When Harry had told them, Arthur had asked excitedly, "is this a Muggle thing?" Hermione had hurried out a "no!" and a frantic history of gender diversity in the wizarding world.

    "It's just that I'm a girl," Harry had said, and Arthur had nodded and asked her about how telephone booths worked. He would call her by the right pronouns until the day he died at the respectable old age of one hundred and thirty three, and he would make it seem easy.

    But Molly had to try. Hermione explained things faster and higher-pitched every time Molly messed up a pronoun. Molly frowned and muttered and put extra potatoes on Harry's plate at breakfast. Harry slept in Ron's room, which didn't bother either of them but which made Hermione scowl.

    Harry got boxes of sweets and warm hugs, as Molly chewed things over. For her fifteenth Christmas, the Weasley sweater she would receive would be a bright, friendly, terrible pink.

    The next time Harry visited, Molly put her on Ginny's floor to sleep-- for some definition of sleep that involved Hermione hissing threats at three in the morning if Harry and Ginny didn't "shut up about Wronski feints, do you know what time it is."
