    Summary

    Saving Sumeru together may have repaired many of the long-standing fractures in Kaveh and Alhaitham's relationship.

    ... Sadly, it did nothing to cure Kaveh's terminal obliviousness.

    “One - one more time?!”

    Alhaitham huffed softly through his nose. “Kaveh. I’m in love with you.”

    Kaveh’s hands shot upward to grasp tightly at his wrists, keeping Alhaitham’s palms pressed against his face like the contact would re-ground him in reality. “I must be going crazy. I’m hearing things...”

    With a slow, long-suffering sigh, Alhaitham shut his eyes briefly with exasperation. Then, finally giving in to the fact that Kaveh was simultaneously the smartest - and most idiotic - man he’d ever met, he leaned forward and dipped his forehead to rest against his.

    “Let me clarify another way, then,” Alhaitham breathed, nudging their noses together gently.

    Summary

    “What’s on your mind this time?” he asks.

    That Varka will go with the rising of the sun, that Flins is not canny enough to keep him. “The way your voice sounds right now.”

    Varka rumbles with laughter. “My voice is it?” he asks, turning his head to press his lips to Flins’s ear. “And what, exactly, do you like about my voice?”

    In the small hours before dawn, Varka attempts to trap Flins with a riddle he can't solve.

    Summary

    “Any challenge is a worthwhile endeavor,” Varka replies. “But if you’re worried about being fair or giving me a handicap…” Flins certainly hadn’t said that, but now he’s curious, and he grows more curious as Varka withdraws a scrap of fabric from one pocket. “Play blindfolded.”

    The challenge whets Flins’s appetite. He isn’t the kind of fae who exults in games of chance but rather ones of wit and strategy, and he was fond of collecting intelligent men like glittering baubles at the Belyi Tsar’s court. “If I am to handicap myself, then I should receive a greater reward if I win, don’t you think?” he asks, the words out of his mouth before he can help them, for he, like all fae, loves a bargain.

    When a bad storm strands Varka at Flins's lighthouse, the two play chess to pass the time. After beating Varka twice, Flins agrees to play with a blindfold, provided the loser owe the winner a boon.

    Summary

    “Has a knight out there caught your eye, then?”

    A quiet hum. Flins thought of blue eyes alight with mirth, of calloused hands and rumbling laughter, and murmured, almost to himself, “Yes, something like that.”

    ~

    Or: Mondstadt is holding a tournament in honor of the Windblume Festival. Flins takes this opportunity to make his affections for one very specific knight known.
