    Summary

    Kaveh had been clear. No poetic wording. No room for misunderstandings. No room for miscommunication.

    “I don’t see you that way,” Alhaitham replied flatly.

    Wow. So straightforward. So concise. Zero social etiquette.

    The heartbreak had not even settled in yet and Kaveh already wanted to throw him off the building.

    Cyno @tcg_pharaoh:
    why is alhaitham on the roof

    Tighnari @actual_leader:
    what roof?? like about to jump??

    Cyno @tcg_pharaoh:
    no he’s lying down flat like a starfish on the cement and just staring at the sky

    Star_Airbnb @star_villas:
    🔗 StarFish Rooftop Villa, 2Bedroom, 1.5 Bathroom with View

    (or: Kaveh was the one who got rejected by Alhaitham, so why is his junior acting like a tragically abandoned stray cat?)

    Summary

    Columbina tilts her head. “Has it had any physical effects? Please indulge my lack of sight.”

    Illuga frowns. “I don’t have any scars from the Hunter now, if that’s what you mean,” he says. “It’s as if I’d never been attacked in the first place.”

    Aether’s hand hesitantly lands on Illuga’s shoulder. “I didn’t want to stress you out more until we could talk to Columbina, but now that we’re here, you should probably look at your reflection,” he says quietly, carefully.

    His body stiffens in an instant, and that feeling of ,wrong, wrong, wrong hits him again full force. He steps out from under Aether’s touch and staggers on autopilot toward the closest pool of water. Illuga crouches down at the edge, pushing his fingers into his hair for some sort of grounding as he leans forward, lantern knocking against his thigh. He catches sight of his reflection, and his world tilts on its axis.

    Illuga comes back from the dead less human and more fae than before.

    Summary

    Aether watches as the frames slide down Xiao’s nose a bit and he pushes up the edge with the back of his hand, his face scrunched at the mild inconvenience.

    Click. Aether suppresses a burst of laughter at the zoomed-in photo. Cute… he thinks.

    He just liked how his friend looked in glasses. No big deal.

    After an invitation to an art show from Xiao, Aether begins to realize that perhaps his relationship with his best friend is more complicated than he knows how to deal with, especially when Xiao looks at him as if he's his muse.

    Summary

    When Alhaitham writes a book with a protagonist based on himself, he doesn't expect to see his own character stripped bare by a fanfiction writer who "identifies really strongly" with his love interest.

    Alhaitham found himself smiling as he cooked dinner that night, thinking back on his conversation with “alkavarzaray,” the random online stranger who understood him to a terrifying degree. Creating any sort of art and allowing it to be perceived is extremely intimate in itself, but the idea that this man had properly understood and absorbed most of what Alhaitham had put out there, baring his soul— It was something between incredible and horrifying.
