    Summary

    She jabbed a finger in his chest. “You named the fucking group chat ‘lets get ingrid laid.’ So how do you expect me to get laid if I don’t meet the guy I’m trying to sleep with?”

    A silence pounded over them as soon as the last word left her mouth. It took the space of three heartbeats to realize that the hand touching his chest was still shaking.

    Carefully, Sylvain grabbed it and squeezed it between his palms. “Look,” he said, unfurling her fingers. “If you want to sleep with someone so bad, I’ll just sleep with you.”

    What.

    Her mind fuzzed. “What.”

    Sylvain’s fingers froze. “What?”

    Almost two years after breaking up with Glenn, Ingrid tries to get laid only to freak out at the prospect of sleeping with a stranger. Sylvain's probably better, right?

    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

    “Do you need anything before I go?” asks Kaveh from the door. Really, the amount of distance he’s placed between them is unnecessary and overdramatic.

    Al-Haitham makes this known by saying, “I can’t hear you from over here.”

    Kaveh scoffs from where he’s leaning against the door frame. “Nice try, Al-Haitham. But I’m not risking going over there just for you to infect me with your plague.”

    Al-Haitham is down with a cold and misses being near Kaveh.

    Summary

    “Who was that?” Hollander is mid-tucking himself in, eyebrows furrowed. If Ilya didn’t know any better, he’d think Hollander was upset.

    “My best friend,” he says truthfully.

    “Oh.” Hollander furrows his eyebrows deeper. “It sounded like a girl.”

    “Yes…” says Ilya slowly. “Sveta—Svetlana is a girl.”

    “Oh.” Hollander’s eyes dart away, as if still processing.

    Ilya sighs. “Are you going to suck me off or should I get dressed now?”

    Shane Hollander learns that Ilya Rozanov's best friend is a girl named Svetlana and he is...jealous to say the least.

    -

    Or, AU where Ilya calls Svetlana "Sveta" for no other reason except my personal satisfaction.

    Summary

    She was chewing her lip again and he found it endlessly amusing. Behind her, the twins were standing so rigidly and so unlike their usual selves it made him want to laugh because he has certainly trained them better than this. He wouldn’t call any of them out on it though.

    After all, if he revealed that he suspected something now, the game would end.

    “You’re right,” said Sylus, finally dropping the scarf on her head. “I must have missed it.”

    The hunter and the twins have been acting strange since the beginning of April. For their sake, and for his own amusement, Sylus pretends not to notice.

    Summary

    “You’re trying to piss me off,” you huff. “I know you’re not that reckless.”

    “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

    “You do.” You step forward without thinking and realize only after Sylus smiles that that was exactly what he wanted you to do. “I don’t know why you’re being so difficult.”

    “I think you’re attributing certain motives to my behavior that do not exist. I laid out my plans for tonight and you came in to complain about my protocols.”

    “Are you saying I’m projecting?” you ask flatly.

    The corner of his mouth twitches. “That. Or…”

    You frown. “Or?”

    “I think you’re just worried about me, sweetheart.”

    Mephisto drags you back to the N109 Zone.

    Summary

    Their faces are very close now. They’re both huffing, winded from the run. When Kaveh exhales, Al-Haitham can smell the mint gum he always liked to chew.

    “I hate you,” Kaveh spits, but he doesn’t move away.

    “I know.” Al-Haitham brings a hand up to his face. He pauses before he wipes away a tear.

    Kaveh’s trembling. “You ruined me."

    Al-Haitham exhales, slow and shuddery. “I know.”

    Kaveh closes his eyes— “I hate that you left me.”

    —and Al-Haitham kisses him.

    After four long years, Al-Haitham finally returns to the idol industry.

    Summary

    Neuvillette, for his steady-beat composure, suddenly looks relieved. “That is…of course, I would ask. Regardless, thank you. I wish to learn from you so that I may be a better sovereign.”

    A thought flashes through his mind. It’s certainly wild, certainly born from Wriothsley’s most suppressed fantasies, but Neuvillette’s standing in front of him because he trusts Wriothesley to teach him about humans, and he came all this way to the Fortress just to see if he was alright.

    Perhaps there’s something to be seen, something to be said. Wriothesley and the rest of Fontaine had just survived the end of the world–why not make a leap of faith?

    He lifts his head, smile curling into a smirk. “You wanna learn something essential to humans?”

    Neuvillette comes to the Fortress of Meropide after the end of the world to ask Wriothesley to teach him about humans.

    Summary

    “Prove it.”

    Kaveh paused. Slowly, he turned around. “What?”

    “Prove that you won’t fall in love.”

    Kaveh tilted his head. “And how do you suggest I do that?”

    “Date me,” said Al-Haitham. “Prove to me that you won’t fall in love.”

    Kaveh keeps getting broken up with and is on the verge of giving up on love when Al-Haitham propositions him.

    Summary

    “Weren’t you just complaining about how he doesn’t think about anyone but himself?” Tighnari raises an eyebrow at him.

    “Yes…” Kaveh furrows his eyebrows. “But I live with him so I get to say it.”

    “How does that change anything?” Collei tilts her head.

    Kaveh huffs. “Well, obviously I’m more attuned to his living habits so I know the general motivators behind his actions. And you guys didn’t hang around Al-Haitham in the Akademiya like I did. You don’t understand him the way I do.”

    Summary

    “You’re the one inflaming this argument when I just came over to talk.” Al-Haitham narrowed his eyes. “Now look at you, yelling at me for some unnameable reason when we should be watching the campers. You accuse me of not paying attention to my kids but you’re the one currently getting distracted by Archons knows what.”

    Kaveh shot to his feet. “You know what—”

    The canoe tipped over.

    Al-Haitham and Kaveh are bitter rival counselors at Camp Kusanali's summer camp. Well, at least Kaveh thinks so.

    Summary

    Are you gloating? Are you trying to get me to leave? Kaveh wanted to ask. Do you even care?

    But that was the whole point, wasn’t it? That Al-Haitham did care. That was why he found out what he did about Sachin and Kaveh’s father, and it was Kaveh who had to come to terms with the fact that he’d been wrong.

    Do you regret staying with me?

    Kaveh swallowed. “Even…even that. I do not regret it.”

    Summary

    “Why didn’t you tell me?” asked Ratio, voice low.

    Aventurine laughed again. “Why does it matter?”

    “Gambler…”

    Too soft. Too quiet. Too much like a secret on the verge of breaking. Not enough of a threat. The fear came clawing again, prodding at Aventurine, wondering, How to turn how to get away how to redirect?

    Redirect.

    “Ahh.” Aventurine let a smile slide across his face, slow and serpentine. He raised his voice to shatter the silence. “I know what you want.”

    Ratio shows up outside of Aventurine's rooms after finding out Aventurine survived Penacony.

    Summary

    The toddler began to cry, and then he started to cough from trying to cry too hard, snot dripping down his face. Another adult came hurrying over to help him to his feet before they went inside to head, presumably, to the nurse’s office.

    Loud, chaotic, dirty. Everything that went against Al-Haitham’s standards.

    “Working here as what?” Kaveh blinked. “Like admin or something? That’s probably quiet and far enough from kids for you. Though—”

    “No,” interrupted Al-Haitham. “I don’t.”

    After getting fired from a prestigious architecture firm, Kaveh moves back to his hometown to raise his five-year-old brother only to find that an old college "acquaintance" is his little brother's kindergarten teacher.

    Summary

    Kafka hooked a leg around the back of Blade’s thigh, drawing him closer. She was frowning when she said, “You’re playing dirty for such a noble general.”

    “Hardly,” said Jing Yuan. “Not when he was mine first.”

    “Well, he’s mine now,” Kafka purred.

    The hand on Blade’s chest tightened. Jing Yuan’s fingers trailed down, splaying across the front and tugging at the buds until a soft sound escaped Blade’s mouth. Through the haze of sensations, Blade watched Kafka’s face twitch with displeasure, but it was gone in an instant, and then all he saw was Kafka reaching up to rest a hand on his cheek–almost tenderly–before she poked her thumb at the corner of his mouth.

    Blade, obediently, let her in.

    She pressed her thumb down, and then smiled when Blade’s tongue curled around it.

    “See?” she said. “Mine.”

    Jing Yuan captures Blade and brings him to the Seat of Divine Foresight where they find Kafka waiting for them.

    Summary

    “What do you do with the flowers?”

    Al-Haitham paused. “What do you mean?”

    “Like, what do you do with the flowers you cough up? Do you keep them or…?”

    He furrowed his eyebrows. “What—why would I keep them? I obviously throw them away. Why are you asking?”

    “I was just wondering—I mean if you’re not using them—like, if I could possibly…have them?”

    Al-Haitham stared at him incredulously. “You want my unrequited love flowers?”

    “Yes?” Kaveh flushed red. “Since…since you’re not using them.”

    Since you’re not using them—

    “What the hell would I be using them for? What the hell are you using them for?”

    Al-Haitham has Hanahaki disease and coughs up mourning flowers. Kaveh asks if he can use them for his ascension materials.
