Summary
Alhaitham’s agency throws him into a livestream dating show. As expected, he rejects everyone. Rudely.
“Name a key scientist involved in the laws of thermodynamics.”
“Newton?”
“What is your stance on Dialectic of Enlightenment?”
“Dia-what?”
“Name a philosopher. As an advantage, a dead one.”
“...”
“Next.”It shouldn't have been as surprising when someone finally snaps.
“Do you even know the answers to these questions, or are you just waiting for someone to say Ibn al-Haytham to boost your own ego?”
Or: The internet is privy to Alhaitham falling in love on camera.

Summary
“Maman, Baba, look!” he had announced, toothy grin stretched ear to ear, “friend!”
Abtin and Faranak had shared a glance between them for a moment before it clicked.
“Oh, my dear little light, that is your seelie,” Faranak had said gently, pulling Kaveh’s joined hands into her own. “Only you can see it, and I’m sure it looks most wonderful.”
“That little seelie is linked to your soul’s betrothed, my son. Everything they feel will reflect in that fairy’s wisps.” Abtin patted Kaveh on the shoulder, a grin matching Kaveh’s own on his lips. “So study it well, so that you can learn all about your future love.”
“Yes, Baba!”

intertwining branches: every kaveh has an alhaitham by telepathicflower
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)

Summary
Each day, Kaveh is transferred to a different parallel reality, and in every single one of those, he and Alhaitham are together:
Waking up in Alhaitham’s arms felt more familiar on the third day. By the fourth, it was fully expected and, by the fifth, he found himself snuggling into those warm arms and sometimes smiling at the “Good morning, sweetheart,” before reminding himself of the situation and sitting down a very confused Alhaitham for a very confusing conversation. It’s not you he loves, he reminded himself, time and time again.

Summary
Four times Ilya Rozanov reminded everyone exactly who the fuck they were dealing with (spoiler: still an asshole, still elite, still not going anywhere), and one time he didn’t have to be anything except soft.
Or being out didn’t make him nicer. Being married didn’t make him softer. Being older didn’t make him weaker. And being a father? Well. That’t when things get complicated.
(He’s really good at that last part. Don’t tell anyone.)

Summary
His father would accuse him of being weak, of letting his heart lead him to stupid places. But for once in his life, Ilya can’t bring himself to care about this. He wants Shane. He wants to coax his boyfriend into ordering takeout from that place they like around the corner from Ilya’s apartment and cheating on his diet a little. Then he wants to blow him on the couch, and he wants Shane to ride him. They can shower afterwards and put some highlights on the TV before falling asleep and ignoring Shane’s alarm the next morning. He wants the peace they had at the cottage during the season, to steal those moments and get to exhale.

Summary
And despite that... Kaveh is… “Lovesick?”
Kaveh’s hands move to cover his face, palms muffling his words as he mutters, “It’s—not quite like that.”
“Well, the ‘sick’ aspect is accurate, at least.”
“No shit,” Kaveh snorts. “The ‘love’ component, though—it’s, uh—”
“You’re not in love?”
He coughs. “The greenhouse in my lungs begs to differ. I—it’s more that my body is mourning a love it knows can’t ever be requited.”
For all the negative feelings Alhaitham’s encountered over the past twelve hours, the sensation that creeps through him now is…
Unfamiliar.
Unknowable.
Despite all the languages he’s fluent in, Alhaitham is unable to conjure a word or phrase with which he can immediately label it. He just knows that whatever this feeling is, it’s unbelievably unpleasant. Like his body is stationary, yet his internal organs are plummeting into the Abyss.
“You love someone who doesn’t love you back?” he asks after a moment.
Kaveh has Hanahaki. That much is known. But who he loves, and whether Alhaitham will be able to save him, is up in the air.
(Haikavah vs. Hanahaki vs. A/B/O dynamics)

“I didn’t do anything wrong, did I?”
“You didn’t,” Mydei says, his gaze averting from Phainon. He takes a deep breath, steeling himself. “You did nothing wrong, Phainon.”
“Then… what do we need to talk about?” He watches Phainon take a hesitant step forward. Mydei curses, frustrated, and jerks his head up.
“I think we should take a break.”
(These days, Mydei wonders if he's been living under the shadow of his past self all this time.)

Summary
“Though I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised,” says Kaveh. He straightens up, feels something in his jaw click. “He’s always been normal, hasn’t he? I’m the abnormal one. I’m the one who’s always at fault. I’m the reason we broke up.”
The silence that follows confuses him for a moment, and then the shocked expressions mirrored from Tighnari’s face to Nilou’s bring Kaveh crashing unceremoniously down to reality.
“Oh,” he says. His friends are still staring at him. “Right, yeah. Al-Haitham and I broke up.”
After four years of dating, Kaveh and Al-Haitham break up.
Obviously, Kaveh is fine about it.

Summary
The room is too bright.
It’s quaint, in a nauseating sort of way. Polished floors glint from the gleaming honeycomb chandeliers overhead, make him squint. A few vases sprinkled here and there, filling the room with a sickeningly sweet scent – even a waffle-cone headrest framing the silken sheets of a neatly-tucked bed. Outside, the golden sun gleams, the gentle rays of light spilling past curtains that waver in the afternoon breeze.
It's meant to be beautiful. Luxurious. Welcoming.
With one sweep of his cane, Shadow Milk tears it apart.

Summary
Everyone had their fair share of secrets, some more so than others.
Mydei knew this better than most. To his colleagues and to anyone else he came across daily, he was simply the solemn one. He never said anything more than what was asked of him and he never lingered long enough to befriend anyone else. No man was an island, but Mydei came close to being one.
But alone, in the solitary privacy of his own room every Thursday and Sunday night, he harbored one little secret that he would never deign to reveal to anyone else.
-
or, what do you do when these secrets come to light-and are found out by the person you least wanted to know?

Summary
“I thought you said you could resist me.” Kaveh playfully knees Alhaitham in the stomach with a teasing expression.
Alhaitham tries to think of an excuse. He really does. But with Kaveh staring at him with reddened lips, his chest still heaving from the previous events, all he can admit is, “I lied.”
People tend to wonder how Alhaitham can resist Kaveh. The answer is that he can't. Rather, he fails miserably trying.

“Prove it.”
Kaveh paused. Slowly, he turned around. “What?”
“Prove that you won’t fall in love.”
Kaveh tilted his head. “And how do you suggest I do that?”
“Date me,” said Al-Haitham. “Prove to me that you won’t fall in love.”
Kaveh keeps getting broken up with and is on the verge of giving up on love when Al-Haitham propositions him.

Summary
Alhaitham's life has been a constant test that he is failing miserably. He doesn't know what he's doing wrong, or why it's so hard to just act the way everyone else does. Kaveh's little comments about his supposed lack of humanity aren't helping either. Does it matter that he knows he's not a machine if the whole world believes he is?

Hey, I heard you were looking for a place to stay. My roommate also moved out recently so I have a room open.
“You’re shitting me,” said Kaveh.
“What?” Cyno tilted his head.
Kaveh held out his phone. Cyno and Tighnari leaned over until the sides of their heads were touching as they read the message.
Tighnari jerked away. “Al-Haitham sent you that?”
“I didn’t know he had it in him,” said Cyno.
“Had what?”
“A charitable soul.”
Kaveh needs a place to stay senior year of college and Al-Haitham has an open spot.

Summary
Beautiful diamond-encrusted studded earrings sat on Al-Haitham’s ears as they shone under the Tavern’s flattering lighting. The earrings almost made Al-Haitham look even more mesmerising, accentuating his already perfectly set jawline. However, what was most striking about them, was their vibrant colour. For they were not the expected emerald green but–
Crimson red.
The Traveller immediately blinks out of a stupor, “They’re red.” They stated, rather dazedly.
Al-Haitham and Kaveh's earrings seem to match. The sky is blue.

Lambad stares at Sethos like he’s grown another head, “Best friends?”
“Let the kid figure it out.” An old greying patron sat at the bar cackles. “The shock will kill him.”
Or the one where Scara sucks at handling his (mechanical) heart, Sethos has a sucky gaydar, Kaveh plays clumsy cupid and Al-Haitham just wants to go home and eat dinner with his wife.
