    Summary

    “You– You can’t see any colors AT ALL???”

    “... I believe I just said that.”

    “How can you be so… so nonchalant about that!?!”

    (...Because for as long as he could remember, his world had only ever consisted of black, white and countless shades of grey).

    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

    As Kaveh sorts the jugs into two groupings—one for the punch bowl and one for the drain—a bell chimes, clattering against the front door.

    “We’re about to close,” Tighnari snaps at the entering customer.

    Kaveh springs to his feet and positions himself behind the register.

    “How can I help—”

    You.

    The customer is halfway to the counter when their eyes lock, and time stops. The man’s shoulders stiffen. Heterochromatic eyes—teal and orange, fire and water, familiar as the breath in Kaveh’s mouth, as the freckle above his left knee—widen with shock and a little disbelief. His mouth drops open, slack, and Kaveh thinks, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him speechless before.

    Oh, gods.

    Kaveh thought he’d never see Alhaitham again.

    After a year without contact, Alhaitham wanders into Kaveh's coffee shop.

    Kaveh wants nothing to do with him — he already has enough problems. But Alhaitham's determined to give him just one more, and perhaps solve a few in the process.

    Summary

    They’ve become so cohesive to each other, it felt anatomically impossible to break apart. He hadn’t intended for this flower to have thorns of its own with roots that burrowed deep into the ground, nor venomous vines that wrapped tightly around his heart.

    How?

    Why?

    Love is like the wind. You can’t see it, but you can feel it.
