    Summary

    People enter Al-Haitham’s life, and then they leave. That is just the way it is: first it was his parents, and then it was his grandmother, and soon enough, it will be Kaveh. He's already set to have a future that other people could only dream of brushing with their fingers.

    There are much greater things than Al-Haitham in Kaveh's destiny.

    Sometimes all it takes is ten years.

    Summary

    “Coming!” Al-Haitham calls, navigating the maze of packing peanuts and crates. He undoes the latch on the door and lets it swing open, fully expecting to see the bearded face of his landlord only to be met with the vermillion-eyed face of somebody he had given up hope on seeing for the rest of his life.

    There’s a long moment of silence. The aching swell of Vivaldi in the background and the rushing in his ears like the ocean waves.

    “...Kaveh?”

    Kaveh, globally-renowned musician, disappears off the face of Teyvat. Five years later, he shows up outside of Al-Haitham's door with no explanation but to ask for a bed to sleep in.

    It's fine. They only have thirteen years of history, after all.

    Summary

    Tartaglia has long since accepted it: his presence shall always be viewed as an inconvenience, something to be tolerated in return for his usefulness. And he doesn't care; he is strong, capable of felling entire territories with his might alone. He doesn't need anybody else. And he definitely doesn't need to be wanted in return.

    Aka three times where Childe doesn't hear the words "I want you", plus the one time that he does.

    Summary

    In time, the name Alatus became an obsession, a legend-spun fantasy he carried with him through dull, colorless, repetitive days. He could not repress the climbing desire to fight this Golden-Winged King, the Conqueror of Demons, if it was the last thing he ever did—threat of death at the hands of such an entity quickening his heart.

    Now he only had to find him.
