    Summary

    The crown prince of Sumeru is cursed to die by the magical lands beyond his kingdom.

    This does not stop him from going there anyway.

    Or from befriending the prickly boy who lives there.

    “Why are you always alone out here?”
    “I didn’t invite conversation.”
    “But we’re talking already.”
    “We are not.”
    “We are!”
    “…”
    “Hey! You can’t just not talk now!”

    (Or: A prince with a deadline meets an outcast with a secret.)

    Summary

    “Why are you looking at me like that?” Kaveh mumbles, without opening his eyes. He’s been reading, too—or pretending to, which is more likely, because the upside-down architectural plans on the table have not moved in half an hour, and his pencil is behind his ear instead of in his hand.

    “I’m not,” Alhaitham says, too fast. Which is absurd. Of course he is. The entire point of his visual cortex is to perceive the world around him, and unfortunately, the world currently includes Kaveh. Shirtless. Glowing. Freckled.

    “You’re making that face again,” Kaveh says, one eye cracking open, voice annoyingly smug for someone still half-asleep. “The one where you’re trying to suppress an emotion and failing.”

    “I don’t suppress emotions,” Alhaitham replies. “I manage them. Responsibly.”

    Kaveh snorts. “Oh, is that what the internal aneurysm looks like? Good to know.”

    In which Kaveh weaponizes freckles and Alhaitham forgets the scientific method.

    Summary

    “Sit.”

    “Haitham, if this is another lecture—”

    Kaveh comes home exhausted, and instead of arguing like usual, they end up admitting they like each other. One thing leads to another, and it turns into soft, heated kisses on the couch.

    (or after all the tension and pining, they finally stop pretending and just give in)

    Summary

    After a mission gone wrong leaves Simon “Ghost” Riley deaf in one ear and Johnny “Soap” MacTavish with a permanent leg injury, both men are forced into early retirement. Soap uses his pension to buy a crumbling house on the edge of a quiet town, determined to make something of it, even if the place looks like it should’ve come with a tetanus shot.

    Ghost shows up with a duffel bag and his usual scowl, moving into the guest room to help with renovations. Between faulty wiring, leaking pipes, and a fridge that seems to growl at two a.m., the two of them fall into a new rhythm of grocery runs, hardware store trips, and late-night fixes. The banter is sharp, the silences softer than either expected, and somewhere between the broken walls and peeling paint, they begin to rebuild more than just the house.

    It’s a story about finding purpose when the battlefield is gone, about healing old wounds in the comfort of shared domestic chaos, and about realizing that sometimes “home” isn’t a place, it’s each other.
