Summary
When he realized that Alhaitham had been acting...strange ever since the night Kaveh got drunk and Alhaitham broke his hearing aids, Kaveh did what he was best at: he denied that there was a problem and ran away to the desert to clear his head and pretend it never happened.
When he came back, Alhaitham was drunk and, according to Tighnari, did it regularly because he was moping. But that couldn't be right. Alhaitham hated him.
...right?

Summary
It is a well-known fact to Cyno and Tighnari that despite the evidence otherwise, Alhaitham is capable of emotion.
Specifically, he is capable of missing Kaveh when he is away on his many trips to the desert for inspiration and he is capable of moping.
Tighnari wonders if they should step in, because he was growing worried that Alhaitham and Kaveh would never figure out that they were in love with each other. Cyno is much less worried.

Summary
In the world of romance novels, there was a formula to these kinds of things.
First, they would get drunk—that step was very important. The next step was variable between two options: they could fuck and then talk about their feelings, or they could talk about their feelings and then fuck.
Sorry.
Make love, because there would be whispered confessions, maybe some tears (probably from Kaveh). A weight would be lifted from their shoulders as truths they had refused to speak of were revealed and they found that they had both been harboring feelings for each other, had been putting themselves through emotional angst for no reason.
Maybe they’d make love again, on and on, impossibly through the entire night, as if refractory periods didn’t exist. Maybe they’d wake up tangled together.
Though Alhaitham was certainly not a romantic, he couldn’t help but be disappointed and he couldn’t help but feel a little silly as well, for wishing for things that wouldn’t happen. Because those lovely dreams of whispered love confessions and soft kisses was not what would happen, and the idea that what they did beneath the haze of alcohol could definitely not be called making love.
