    Summary

    Diluc knows this man’s rhythm.

    He’s studied the choreography of his violence and his desire alike. He’s catalogued every shape of his smile, just to gauge the danger in them.

    It’s muscle memory at this point. It’s instinct. And frankly, it’s maddening.

    Childe turns up in Mondstadt.
    They fight, they fuck. They fall.

    Summary

    Alhaitham happened to be the first real guest of Kaveh's newly finished, long-awaited, personally designed house. The place glittered from floor to ceiling, with all the extravagance and elegance a wealthy architect could buy in the heart of the city.

    But even then, some things never change. It couldn't escape Alhaitham's notice that the bathroom was chock full of his favourite products, or that the familiar aroma of sandalwood oudh permeated each room.

    So when Kaveh, after a candlelit dinner, offered (asked) him to stay the night, despite the state of the unfurnished guest bedroom - which Alhaitham knew was missing even a modest mattress - it was as if a decade-long puzzle he was too scared to solve finally clicked into place.

    Summary

    Childe plucks the vial from Scaramouche's hand and pops the cork with a soft click. “Oh, I'm going to do many things about it, baby. I’m not stopping until your brain’s melted and you’re crying into the pillows.”

    Childe wants to test out an aphrodisiac with Scaramouche. Scaramouche is a cocky motherfucker and downs half the vial.

    Summary

    It’s late. The office is empty. Ratio’s trying to stay composed, hunched over his screen and soaked in stress, until Aventurine slides in with silk-smooth arrogance and all the wrong ideas.

    Summary

    The problem, Kaveh decides, wasn’t just that Alhaitham had no range, even when the similarities were so close all he’d have to do was change his name. It was that Nilou somehow expected him to fix it. Performance chemistry was not something you could brute-force by proximity and stubbornness and sheer willpower. Kaveh has already spent a full semester proving that Alhaitham was biologically immune to charm.

    Nilou rubbed her temples.

    “Okay, look. You’re actors—well, one of you is. You’re meant to create illusions. Maybe just… pretend you don’t hate each other? And then hate each other when it calls for it.”

    “We don’t hate each other,” Kaveh snapped.

    Alhaitham, beside him, nodded agreeably. “I simply find him taxing.”

    In Sumeru University’s production of Barefoot in the Park, Kaveh’s original scene partner breaks a leg. Literally. His insufferable roommate steps up to the plate. Only: they have zero chemistry and turn to alternatives, i.e, method acting.

    But it’s fine, they’re adults. What could go wrong?
