    Summary

    There’s a disturbing uptick in gun-related deaths across Musutafu City. Okay, fine, maybe the uptick is only a 0.8% increase over ten years, but that’s still a great excuse for Snipe to unveil his brand new Mass Shooting Training Plan in front of Nedzu and the UA faculty.

    God, Snipe can’t wait to shoot all these asshole kids.

    And if Bakugo and Iida are forced together in a high-stakes survival situation, well, that’s just a happy accident. One that’s going to really, really piss off Eraserhead.

    (Snipe isn’t feeling smug about that. Not even a little bit.)

    Meanwhile, Midoriya discovers something about himself.

     

    TLDR; Snipe has an absolute field day shooting Aizawa’s kids in the face. To teach them a lesson, or whatever. Yada yada gun safety, yada yada shooting drills, yada yada an excuse to saw off the end of a shotgun.

    Summary

    Kaveh smiles up at the stranger. "Sorry, he's right! I am taken. By him. But he doesn't know it yet."

    What.

    "Wait, what did you mean by that?" Al-Haitham asks faintly.

    "Oh, that?" Kaveh scoffs. "You're a little dense. Obviously, I meant exactly what I said. I wouldn't want to be kept by anybody but you."

    "But we are—" Al-Haitham trips over his words, trailing behind Kaveh as he walks purposefully through the city. "We aren't. Together. Neither of us has confirmed anything of the sort."

    Kaveh gives him a derisory look. "And what, we don't act like it? Some things don't have to be put into words to be understood. Ah, I forgot. Haravatat. You probably wouldn't accept anything else any other way."

    "It is not logical to make assumptions without empirical evidence."

    "You scholarly types," Kaveh mutters. "Always so particular."

    So. Al-Haitham is in love with Kaveh. This has got to be somebody's fault.

    Cue the five stages of grief.

    Summary

    "Let me get this straight. You want Kaveh, a man known for being about as subtle as a stampede of sumpter beasts -"

    "Hey! Come on! I'm right here, you know!"

    "--to act as your spy? For the good of the nation?" Alhaitham snorted. "Kaveh can't even remember his keys, Cyno. And you're expecting him to engage in advanced statecraft?"

    "Ok, rude."

    When a certain ginger-haired Snezhnayan buys a slice of barren desert property in Sumeru, it's up to Kaveh to figure out whether this strange foreigner is actually the Eleventh Fatui Harbinger, and more importantly, what he's plotting out there in the middle of no man's land. Kaveh can do this. Probably.

    But it would sure be a lot easier if Alhaitham hadn't invited himself along as the world's most distracting fake husband.

    Summary

    "Wow," Kaveh said, as a senior walked by. "Look at that... there's just something about people with long hair."

    Alhaitham studied the senior in question. She had hair down to her hips, and was currently laughing with some friends as she pulled it back casually into a ponytail.

    Alhaitham then studied Kaveh. Kaveh looked entranced: jaw a little slack; coral eyes wide.

    "You... really like long hair?"

    Kaveh startled, blinked. "Yeah, I suppose I do," he said.

    Alhaitham studied the flush of Kaveh's cheeks, his unrelenting gaze. "I see," he said.

    Alhaitham grows his hair out. He has been growing his hair out since they were students. It falls to his hips in a river of silver and green. Kaveh looks, and looks, and looks.
