    Summary

    “I heard people have been speculating whether the two of you are actually involved romantically with one another. And, um, you do seem to be quite close, so is there any truth to that?” Charlotte cleared her throat, waiting for one of them to answer her question.

    Kaveh’s thoughts came to a screeching halt. Oh, Archons. My life is over.

    Frantic, he looked over to Al-Haitham, who let out a puff of air through his nose. “Of course there’s nothing going on between us. Relationships between sages are strictly forbidden, Miss Charlotte.”

    “Oh!” Charlotte exclaimed, one of her hands flying to her mouth. “I didn’t know there was a rule like that.”

    “Most people don’t,” said Al-Haitham, voice strained.

    Five times people get dangerously close to finding out about the Grand Sage’s illicit relationship with the Kshahrewar Sage, and the one time Al-Haitham decides it’s time they make it official.

    Summary

    "Al-Haitham," Kaveh says, barely audible. "Just know that to the very end, I am yours…"

    The screeching of the plants, animalistic in their uproar, reaches a high. With one last cry, Al-Haitham reaches for Kaveh, and then the moon falls in front of the sun as if it is a pendulum making its last swing. A clock ringing one last time, like a sentencing, like a conviction.

    And Sumeru goes black.

    Imagine that the world is ending. Who do you turn to first?

    For Al-Haitham, there is only Kaveh.

    Summary

    “Oh god, not you again,” Kaveh says crossly, cradled in familiar arms and pouting to the side that’s not facing directly into a broad chest.

    “Can you not require saving for one day?” asks the most annoying superhero that Kaveh has had the displeasure of coming across.

    If Kaveh had the choice, he wouldn"t choose to be saved by the same infuriating superhero all the time, but it"s not really up to him. Unfortunately.

    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

    Mehrak has this habit of opening Kaveh’s door when it’s not fully closed, nosing her way into his office and then leaping onto his lap to snuggle her head into his stomach. So he’s not entirely unsurprised when he hears the door creak open, slow and deliberate the way his cat always does it, and he doesn’t even look up to check that it’s her before he speaks.

    “Not right now, solnyshko,” he calls distractedly, too focused on his current sketch.

    There’s silence, as there usually is since Mehrak can’t actually respond to him. Then, “Don’t be so vulgar, senior.”

    Kaveh accidentally calls Al-Haitham a pet name in a different language, and then he keeps doing it. It"s too bad he forgets that Al-Haitham is fluent in all of them.
