    Summary

    Kaveh ends up confessing to Alhaitham during a big fight before the architect leaves for a longterm desert project. Kaveh then meets an accident and is officially proclaimed dead by the Matra.

    Two years later, the Traveler claims Kaveh is seen alive, in Fontaine, seemingly without a memory of who he is, living an entirely different life.

    Summary

    After the first day of the Interdarshan Championship, Kaveh asks Alhaitham to praise him during sex—because although the two of them disdain each other, they somehow keep ending up in bed together.

    “Strong,” Alhaitham murmurs, kissing from Kaveh’s thigh to his hip. “Resolute.”

    Stop, Kaveh wants to say. You’re wrong, you’re lying, you’re cruel.

    But he asked for this. He asked Alhaitham to take him to bed and praise him, to make him feel like he’s not a complete failure.

    Alhaitham knows that Kaveh is none of the words leaving his mouth. Kaveh is neither strong nor resolute, and he is certainly not enough.

    But Alhaitham is a linguist. And that means he’s good with words, Kaveh supposes—even when he doesn’t mean them.

    Summary

    Tighnari refused to back down, that coy smile stuck to his face like glue. “I was just thinking… maybe he’d have more fun with me.”

    “With you?” Al Haitham sneered. The air was stiff, the space between them growing ever thin, the warmth of Al Haitham’s hand seeping through Tighnari's shirt.

    “Yeah.” Tighnari breathed, meeting Al Haitham’s sharp eyes, “I just don’t believe you could satisfy Kaveh… let alone me.”

    Summary

    When Kaveh discovers that Alhaitham has been reading a book about human sexuality and kinks, he generously offers to assist Alhaitham with some sexual exploration. It’s a risky proposal, and one that could end very badly—thanks to their falling-out years ago, the two of them have trust issues galore.

    But it turns out that Kaveh and Alhaitham are surprisingly good at trust and communication when it comes to sex…which raises some questions about the nature of their relationship, and where exactly this whole experiment is leading them.

    “Look,” Kaveh says, “if you’re going to approach sexual pleasure like an experiment, most potential partners won’t take too kindly to the idea of you having sex with them for science. Therefore, to spare all the poor people you’d inevitably insult in your quest for data, I am willing to be that person.”

    “How charitable of you,” Alhaitham says.

    “And I assume that you’re somewhat comfortable with the idea of having sex with me,” Kaveh adds, “or else you wouldn’t have been so willing to have my fingers in your mouth just now.”

    Summary

    If Alhaitham hadn’t taken both keys with him, he wouldn’t be in this goddamn mess. He’d be at home, sipping tea over a nice book – that is, not trapped in the body of a damn cat out of all things, miserable and stuck out in the rain.

    Surely his day could not get any worse than this, is what he thinks, right before he runs head first into said roommate.


    In which Kaveh turns into a cat, and Alhaitham unwittingly adopts him.
