    Summary

    “Why does it not–” Kaveh’s voice ripped out in a whine. “Have you not thought about it at all since then?”

    A long pause. The longest one yet. “Who says I haven’t?”

    Lightning flashed through the window, illuminating Al-Haitham’s face. Half of it was still wrapped in shadow, blocked by Kaveh’s head, but he could see the distance between them measured, laid flat by the light. The lightning went. The room went dark. But the memory of Al-Haitham’s wide eyes did not leave him.

    What did he want?

    “Have you?” asked Kaveh.

    “Have you?” Al-Haitham’s voice was so quiet, buried under the murmur of the rain.

    Kaveh swallowed. “I mean…I thought that was obvious.”

    Kaveh accidentally sleeps with Al-Haitham. And then...keeps sleeping with him.

    Summary

    "Say, Alhaitham," Kaveh says, swirling the wine in his glass. "You're a graduate of the Haravatat. How would you define love?"

    "There are many types of love," Alhaitham replies. "Parents love their children. Lord Kusanali loves Sumeru. You love drinking yourself into a stupor. To which kind do you refer?"

    "Romance, Alhaitham," Kaveh says. "What else would I mean?"

    "How would I know what you mean without you telling me?"

    Or: the author read a fic where Hanahaki was described as a manifestation of the Withering and thought "I can make this way worse"

    Summary

    “Al-Haitham and I have been sleeping together lately,” says Kaveh, a statement which is quickly followed by the sound of a spoon clattering onto the floor and a very meek gasp from Collei in the corner of the room.

    Across from him, Tighnari raises a single eyebrow.

    Kaveh’s eyes go wide. “No, I—not like that.

    One night, Al-Haitham shows up at Kaveh's bedroom door and sleeps in his bed. They don't talk about it.

    Summary

    Scoffing, Kaveh mumbles, “Is there anything you don’t know, oh great Scribe?”

    His hands play with the hem of the shirt before slipping underneath to find the bare skin of Kaveh’s toned abdomen. Alhaitham knows of the stars and the blood-stained past of their land. He knows of legends, myths, and truths. He knows of archons and devils. Alhaitham is a wise man with extensive knowledge on many things and he has never been shy to show it.

    “If only you knew how little I know about the things that matter."

    or, Kaveh sought out warmth on cold nights and it turned into something more.

    Summary

    “How unfortunate for you to have someone that cares about your wellbeing.”

    Kaveh laughed. “Is that what it is now? I wasn’t just disturbing your sleep?”

    “Believe what you like.” It was both. Unfortunately for Alhaitham, he did care about Kaveh’s wellbeing, which is why he chose to do things like this. But it seemed no matter how often Alhaitham explicitly stated this, Kaveh would brush it off. It was a dance they had done for years, and Alhaitham didn’t make any more effort to make Kaveh understand he was serious. Kaveh wouldn’t believe him, or he would choose not to. It wouldn’t change anything if Kaveh believed it. Alhaitham would still be going through the motions of getting him to sleep in his bed on nights like this. They would still be having the same arguments. This was just another thing that had become a fact for Alhaitham about his life. Alhaitham cared about Kaveh. He would continue to care about him and for him, and Kaveh would continue to dismiss it. This was a fact that Alhaitham had learned to accept, ignoring the annoying twinge of pain that came with it.
