    Summary

    The truth of the matter is, Kaveh has no idea how to read Alhaitham. He prides himself on being an expert at understanding people, his empathetic heart lending him the capacity to relate deeply with those around him (oftentimes to his detriment). But with Alhaitham, there is nothing for him to read; no clues from his cool expression for him to grasp. The man appears stoic all the time even during their petty bickering.

    Honestly, when was the last time Kaveh has seen the man do anything except smirk or frown? Does Alhaitham feel happiness? Has he ever seen the man laugh?

    Kaveh's mind is drawing a blank on the latter and it...bothers him deeply.

    --
    Kaveh devises a plan to get Alhaitham to smile by being aggressively nice to the man (and also maybe if he makes Alhaitham happy, he can score a discount on his rent or something). Alhaitham thinks Kaveh ate some mind-altering mushrooms and is, understandably, confused and mildly afraid.

    Summary

    After a U.A. training exercise goes horribly wrong, Uraraka and Bakugou are left trapped in a collapse, injured and alone, with rescue days away.

    There really isn’t much to do to pass the time except chat, and Bakugou hates small talk.

    Summary

    The first thing Tsunade told her about the Byakugou seal was that it would never make her immortal—never truly invincible. It was a weapon of last resort, meant only to protect those she held dearest, and it demanded reverence.

    Each time her body was torn apart, each time the seal forced her broken pieces back together, it would feel like crossing the threshold between life and death—only to be dragged back screaming. The pain would be beyond description, beyond endurance. And yet she would have to endure it.

    The diamond shape of her seal was barely visible beneath the blood and dirt that caked her skin. She could feel the chakra reserves she had so carefully stored over the years, now nearly depleted from the monumental task of keeping her alive through each devastating blow.

    Sakura would not survive another blow.

    • • •

    The war is lost, the world is in ruins, and Sakura plays the only hand she has left.

    Summary

    Kaveh’s not sure when exactly it started.

    But if he was told to make an estimate, it probably took root the moment he met Al-Haitham’s eyes in a dinghy alley next to an old building in Sumeru city’s slums.
