chapter 3: fool

genshin impact | alhaitham/kaveh | M, 15k

“Let me pose you a question, Cyno. Even if you were to find Il Dottore, what could you do?” Cyno twirls his spear, slamming its point into the ground. “What else?” “You would lose. He is one of the most powerful people under Celestia at the moment. You’d need the power of a god to defeat him in combat. For all of Hermanubis’ power, he doesn’t match up.” “Then you can formulate a plan to lure Dottore elsewhere to rescue Kaveh.” “It’s a temporary measure at best. There’s nothing to stop Dottore from targeting him again.” “Then what do you plan to do?” “Eliminate the problem,” says Al-Haitham. “Permanently.”

It's time to deal with Dottore once and for all.

That's not the scary part. The scary part is what comes after.

This fic is now complete.

chapter 1: mirror

genshin impact | alhaitham/kaveh | mature, 23k

Kaveh has achieved so much today, it should be fine to do this much for himself. It should be fine to enjoy this much. There is absolutely nothing that Al-Haitham could possibly do to ruin this day! Of course, this is when Al-Haitham chooses to walk in covered in blood.

Kaveh has enough troubles on his plate even without dealing with his confusing relationship with and unfortunately lingering feelings for his roommate. But when a strange conspiracy begins closing in on Al-Haitham and threatening the precarious balance of their daily lives, Kaveh finds himself having to reckon with the ghosts of the past.

“That makes things easy, then. Once Al-Haitham is out of your life, you’ll be happy, and I’ll be happy. Isn’t it nice when everyone wins?” “Oh, sure,” Kaveh says sarcastically, “except you seem to have forgotten the most important part. You know, Al-Haitham’s opinion?”

Kaveh struggles, Dottore reminisces, and they both learn new things about Al-Haitham together. No one is happy about this.

Meanwhile, Al-Haitham plots.

Gu Qingshan adopts the same expression of intense focus he had when considering how to resolve the problem of Huang Quan, what to do about the Soul Shrieker’s attack, how to defeat the Demon Dragon’s upcoming assault. Oh, that bastard, Zhang Yinghao thinks. He’s going to find another way somehow, isn’t he? Then Gu Qingshan’s face twitches into the slightest of grimaces, and Zhang Yinghao knows that he hasn’t.

If your good brother needs to have sex to save the world, it's only right to give him a hand.

“The ninneko are everywhere, but the ones with the info are the bakeneko. They’re pretty reclusive; the Clan Head is usually the only person to ever see one in person. Getting into their home base will involve finding the right cat with the right contract to invite us in.” Izuna whips out a headband with cat ears from his bag. “We could just walk in with these, but lying like that gets the bakeneko pretty wound up, so I want to avoid that.”

Lying with… cat ear headbands?

Tobirama and Izuna pay a visit to the bakeneko and get a little more than they bargained for.
