    Summary

    “Gege spoke of a few people, but he never shared the identity of the fourth person whom he trusts so wholeheartedly.”

    Hua Cheng cleared his throat as he mindlessly twirled his calligraphy brush. “As your husband, I believe it is important to become familiar with all the people gege holds close. So, does gege care to share?”

    Xie Lian was stunned. There was something he’d actually managed to hide from Hua Cheng! His eyes glistened with a rare twinge of mischievous delight.
    ---
    Or, Hua Cheng not-so-subtly tries to uncover the identity of Xie Lian's "mysterious", most trusted companion. Xie Lian takes the opportunity to tease him a little, but it doesn't go as planned.

    Inspired by one of my favorite scenes from Book 5 of TGCF!

    Summary

    “You’re doing it again,” Alhaitham accused, thoughts moving too fast for him to stop and think about their situation. “You– I don’t know what it is you’re trying to save me from, but I will not be leaving this place without you. I leave…” His vision was blackening at the edges, but still, he pushed on. “I leave with you, or not at all.”

     

    Instead of rising to his stubborn demand, Kaveh just gave him a sad smile. “You’ve always been one step ahead of everyone, Alhaitham. But not me, not this time. I can only hope you’ll forgive me one day.”

    The price for Alhaitham to go free is high, but Kaveh is willing to pay it.

    Summary

    In a home full of silence, Kaveh feels the need to escape - if only for one night. An unexpected event leads to long-since buried feelings being revealed amidst a haze of recovery and vulnerability.

    (Alternatively: It only takes Kaveh being attacked for him and Alhaitham to realise how much they do actually care for each other. Which, as it happens, is a lot.)
