    Summary

    Kaveh never celebrated his birthdays ever since his mother left for Fontaine. As the days pass nearer to his birthday, a mysterious letter from Fontaine gets delivered to the Scribe’s office; the letter addressed to the wrong destination. Unfortunately opened by error or by intention, Alhaitham realizes that the letter was from Faranak, Kaveh’s mother. Kaveh eventually learns of the letter, and he falls into a dilemma whether he should go to Fontaine, and if he does, would Alhaitham accompany him?

    A story of Kaveh discovering himself, ambition, love and Alhaitham.

    Happy Birthday, Kaveh!

    Summary

    Kaveh gets a surprise call after a long day while working onsite in Liyue Harbor City; the surprise turning into something rather amazing for him, and Haitham.

    “Are you alone?” Haitham’s voice was lower than usual, his question ending in a hitch of breath.

    “Of course?” Kaveh sounded suspicious for a bare two seconds. “Why would I not be alone in my hotel room? Are you alone?”

    “I’m naked.”

    Summary

    Love, Alhaitham discovers, is an act of preservation.

    In the same way that Alhaitham is intimately familiar with the processes of poring over ancient texts, painstakingly transcribing every stroke of the script before him, or documenting Akademiya findings and ordinances, cautiously taking note of every minute detail in the syntax, he finds that love, too, is a form of documentation.

    Summary

    “Welcome home,” Alhaitham says distractedly, staring in contemplation at the child next to Kaveh.

    The child looks like an exact but smaller copy of Kaveh – vibrant red eyes gleaming with wondrous curiosity, the same long lashes, and the characteristically unruly blonde hair, clumsily held back by two red clips that appear too large for the child’s head. When Kaveh turns around briefly to set his bags down, Alhaitham notices two red clips missing from his own hair.

    When Kaveh returns from his desert expedition, he returns with his five-year-old self in tow.

    Summary

    So who cared if it was childish to plan an outing like this? Who cared if he was being over the top with the bouquet in his arms and the fancy new blouse that seemed to have decided to become unbearably uncomfortable the moment Kaveh had knocked on the door?

    This was how Kaveh wanted to do it, this was Kaveh taking the man he'd wanted for years out on the date he should've given them at the inception of their relationship.

    And Archons was he nervous.

    --

    It was inevitable, that they had to part, that Kaveh had to stand on his own before he was ready to accept what had always been between them. He has some stuff to make up for now.

    Whether that means it's too late to reconnect, to rebuild, and to grow something new, well...

    The first thing you can do is ask the guy out on a date.

    Summary

    This year, however, Alhaitham made sure to have Kaveh's coordinates on hand. He had planned to go about it as usual and let the day pass, but then that voice he usually doesn't listen to, as it doesn't fit into his rational model, kept telling him to celebrate with Kaveh this year. Perhaps time would surprise him, and distance as well.

    In which Alhaitham decides to join Kaveh for his birthday.

    Summary

    "This is what they call heaven, isn't it?" Kaveh muttered, unleashing AlHaitham's hands and then hugging him from behind, still holding him in his lap, facing the mirror. He laid his face on the scribe's shoulder, kissing his cheek in countless times as he enjoyed the warmth he provided. AlHaitham pressed that cheek even closer to Kaveh, showing that he loved those little kisses on his skin, but not saying much more. For Kaveh, that was enough, as he knew AlHaitham went at his own pace when it came to affectionate demonstrations. Besides, being uninhibited in bed was one of the ways AlHaitham told him he loved him."

    Summary

    They looked so alike, Alhaitham thought, seeing Kaveh’s and his father’s smiles side by side, even if Kaveh could not see it for himself. Kaveh’s father glanced over at his son then, nodding along to his son’s explanations of the dream palace he’d one day build, and the gaze he wore on his face was infinitely, infinitely warm and proud, like the soundless passing of a flame from one torch to another.

    Alhaitham can see ghosts. It is oftentimes a curse but sometimes, on a few occasions, also a blessing.

    Summary

    Kaveh always had an eye for the fine details, it's why he decided to become an architect afterall. His eyes were like magnifying glasses; they could see the most miniscule things. His eyes were also like a hawk's, always searching for something. However, there were some times when his attention to detail was more of a curse than a blessing.

    Right now is one of those times.
