    Summary

    Destruction. Decay. Death. Impending Doom and Disaster.

    The air carried none of that wicked stench, and yet the collapse of humanity was so close that Kaveh could taste it.

    In which, Kaveh finds himself with Alhaitham contemplating facing the end of the world.

    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

    Just a prank. Nothing serious. It was Alhaitham afterall. He wasn't the type to flinch, or, wasn’t supposed to be.

    He was supposed to be all nonchalant and stoic, not even thinking twice about whatever practical joke was being pulled.

    Alhaitham was, in fact, NOT supposed to stare at Kaveh’s face so intently, like he was drunk on love, like Kaveh was the only person for him in this world, like Kaveh was the reason he breathes.

    In which Kaveh’s prank on Alhaitham turns out to be something entirely else and he is not complaining.

    Summary

    From an early age, Alhaitham's grandmother had taught him how to properly treat his own injuries. In general, she always encouraged Alhaitham to be independent, so it came about quite naturally that Alhaitham would simply attend to himself whenever he got hurt.

    Alhaitham could easily take care of himself, so why was Kaveh bothering? The situation was so bizarre that it didn't even occur to Alhaitham to resist. He only silently watched his senior work, fascinated.

    --

    As cautious as he is, there are circumstances that even Alhaitham hadn't foreseen.

    Alhaitham gets hurt, and Kaveh takes care of him (or tries to...)

    Summary

    “That’s a knowledge capsule,” Kaveh said quietly. Normally, Alhaitham would fire back with a rebuttal, but what could he say? Kaveh was right. There was no defending himself against this.

    - - -

    Kaveh finds Alhaitham with a knowledge capsule and offers to teach Alhaitham anything he wants to learn in exchange for turning the capsule in. Neither of them are ready for the consequences of such an offer.

    Summary

    'I didn't even think that I liked you,' Kaveh mused to himself as he picked up his sketchbook and colored pencils. He wanted to draw what he thought the roses that he now knew were killing him might look like in full bloom, 'so just when did I start loving you?'

    Summary

    “Kaveh,” he confirms. “He is renowned in his line of work for his skill and passion.”

    Lord Kusanali nods as if he had proved one of her silent queries. “I was hoping he would lend me a hand with this project,”

    “I’m sure he would be honored,” he says earnestly.

    She smiles, cheeks dimpling. “Do you really think so?”

    Alhaitham smiles back, small, easy. “I know him quite well."

    -

    Or, the one where Alhaitham is terribly, terribly in love with Kaveh.

    Summary

    "I’m saying I could do a good job, by, let’s say, your standards. You are the artist here, can you not see the artistry in undoing a partner with nothing but words?”
    “Prove it, then.”
    “What do I get when I win?”
    “Whatever you want.”
    Oh.
    Oh, it would be like that then.

    --

    Kaveh doubts Alhaitham could be any good at dirty talk, and challenges him to prove him wrong. In the middle of a full tavern.

    Summary

    Al-Haitham hums, sitting back in his seat. His eyes get that look they always do when he's thinking– at least that had stayed the same– before he put his hands in his pockets.

    “You can stay with me, if you'd like,” he says all too casually as he pulls a hand back out his pocket. “For the time being,” he adds on a little too quickly, “until you manage to get yourself out of the mess you’ve made.”

    Kaveh was about to open his mouth to protest. Like he'd ever take an offer from him, especially with that attitude.

    But then Al-Haitham slides a key across the table to him–golden, with emerald embellishments, a carbon copy of the soulmark on Kaveh's arm– and the words on his lips dissipate into the warm tavern air.

    Summary

    “I’m in love with you. Isn’t that pathetic?” Kaveh murmurs into his ear. He is laughing—harsh and discordant and bitter.

    “I’m in love with you, and I’m dying,” Kaveh rambles. “You’re killing me, Alhaitham.”

    (Kaveh contracts hanahaki. He and Alhaitham deal with the consequences.)

    Summary

    At Jacobs, they call it the hangover. Classes didn’t teach about it so they had to make their own language. Obviously kids with the Touch as their primary get it the worst, but the rest of them aren’t immune. One particularly rough case, one too many moments of overexertion, and you’d be taking some of the ghost back home with you.

    “Barnes asked me to check in on you. Said you were hurt on a job with Grimble.”

    “As you can see,” Lucy followed after him. “I’m perfectly fine. Now get out.”

    Kipps kicked at a pile of laundry on the floor. “Good lord, Carlyle, you live like this?”

    “Leave,” Lucy said through gritted teeth. 

    Lucy is injured on a job. Kipps won't leave her alone.

    Summary

    Lockwood always understood the concept of undying devotion, but he never once dreamed he would be enough to deserve it. Maybe the press of Lucy’s lips against his is enough for him to finally believe it, or maybe dreaming about the family he lost can remind him he was always worthy in the first place.

    Summary

    Mobei Jun finds himself teleporting into Shang Qinghua’s leisure house pretty frequently. It’s not that he needs Shang Qinghua’s help with anything, he just-

    If he’s allowed, why shouldn’t he bother his servant? It’s his right as king.

    The thing is, while they were hiding the whole demon-collusion thing, Shang Qinghua’s house was constantly barred by wards. Mobei Jun could spend uninterrupted hours napping, laying around until Shang Qinghua was free enough to come back and help. Now, with the Sect so busy and all secrets completely gone, Peak Lords just fucking… barge in now! Even when Shang Qinghua isn’t there!

     

    --

    Or: postcanon, Mobei Jun just wants to nap in Shang Qinghua's room. Instead, he's forced to make smalltalk with all of his coworkers.

    “You know what?” Wei Ying said. “I think we should be friends.”

    “Vulcans do not have friends,” said Lan Zhan. He was staring very determinedly at the screen in front of him.

    Wei Ying frowned at him. “That can’t be right.”
