    Summary

    “Wake up already… you damned gambler…”

    Weeks after Aventurine’s gamble in Penacony, Ratio is still tending to him in Reality. But even when his efforts pay off, there are still many wounds left behind.

    Some of them may be far too severe to ever be healed… but that won’t stop Ratio from trying, anyway.

    Summary

    This is an ongoing series of how I imagine Kaveh's relationship with his gender - and Alhaitham's understanding of it in turn - unfolded.

    You can view the series as a prequel to most of my canon fics since Kaveh is trans in every fic I've written (even if it's not tagged/relevant). I have written around a dozen fics as part of this series, and may post more of them on here as I get the courage.

    Summary

    Alhaitham’s agency throws him into a livestream dating show. As expected, he rejects everyone. Rudely.

    “Name a key scientist involved in the laws of thermodynamics.”
    “Newton?”
    “What is your stance on Dialectic of Enlightenment?”
    “Dia-what?”
    “Name a philosopher. As an advantage, a dead one.”
    “...”
    “Next.”

    It shouldn't have been as surprising when someone finally snaps.

    “Do you even know the answers to these questions, or are you just waiting for someone to say Ibn al-Haytham to boost your own ego?”

    Or: The internet is privy to Alhaitham falling in love on camera.

    Summary

    “I wish we never met!”

    Kaveh regrets these words as soon as they leave his mouth. The first reason is because they were thrown out in the heat of anger. He doesn't entirely mean them.
    The second reason is that Alhaitham transforms into a giant semi-Vulture creature in response, and a shady secret organization bursts in uninvited. They are called the "Analyze, Contain, Preserve" division of the Akademiya—or so they say.
    (Kaveh still thinks it might be a cult.)

     

    Alhaitham has the choice between running away into the desert or complying with the ACP's bothersome procedures. That part is fine; he's used to it. They've been monitoring him his entire life, after all.
    However, the added pressure of dealing with his incomprehensible feelings towards senior Kaveh adds a lot to his plate.
