    Summary

    Kaveh never planned to still be here, in Alhaitham's house ... or to want more than he's allowed. But when a client's offhand command and a too-generous Akademiya program crack open the door to what might be a different future, Kaveh finds himself dreaming of things he's never had: family, stability, maybe even peace.

    (Or: When Kaveh considers becoming a single parent, Alhaitham enters crisis mode for the first time in his adult life, scrambling to be chosen as the father of Kaveh's child.)

    Summary

    At last, the door opened.

    It was heavy, and so it opened at a speed neither too fast nor too slow. At that moment, the clouds coincidentally moved; the moonlight again streamed in; and that silver glow just so illuminated the tall, imposing figure standing in the doorway.

    Kaveh's heart, his breathing, and even his thoughts—all abruptly ceased. In a moment, he was not a man, but a statue frozen to stillness.

    Alhaitham had always been tall. Now he seemed even taller. Gold glinted at his hips, his broad shoulders, his wrists, his neck, even the fine buttons of his coat. The cold white of his neck cloth was broken by elegant teal. When Kaveh's gaze slid to the side, he saw, inlaid in gold upon a gemstone of ocean green, a single letter: K.

    Summary

    Kaveh knew he was a horrible person; the Man of his Dreams (that is, the one whose fingers Kaveh had just been imagining wrapped around his cock) had come to life and didn’t know that the broad expanse of his person was created by Kaveh’s guiding hand. He didn’t know that Kaveh was effectively a higher power in this pocket universe and the puny, seventeen year old boy blushing furiously at Kaveh’s penis (which had quickly gone flaccid) was the result of a cosmic character selection screen that Kaveh swiped through with his dick and not his brain.

    Kaveh's existential battle with Getting Isekai'd happens three decades too late.

    Summary

    Nilou clasps her hands. “We think you’re in love.”

    “We’re not,” they say. In unison.

    Faruzan throws a pillow at them.

    “Let me be clear,” Tighnari says, pacing like a professor confronting academic fraud. “You live together. You argue like rivals, care like husbands, and kissed in front of the fridge. You wrote an entire academic paper about each other’s emotional habits.”

    “That was a thought experiment,” Alhaitham replies, coolly.

    “It had three footnotes about Kaveh’s eyelashes,” Cyno deadpans.

    “They’re very symmetrical,” Alhaitham mutters.

    In which the thesis is long, the denial is longer, and the sexual tension could power the entire Akademiya.
