    Summary

    Kaveh wiped the sweat from his face with a mostly-clean rag and started packing up the majority of his tools. With less than twenty laps in this race, it was unlikely that Tighnari would need any major tuning on his suspension or handling.

    So really, it was his fault that he missed what came next.

    Alhaitham is in a crash. All Kaveh can do is watch.

    Summary

    Alhaitham did not want Kaveh to go.

    It was embarrassing enough to think, let alone speak aloud. No matter the messy, uneven stitches that had begun to close the gaping maw of the wound between them. They were not the kind of people that admitted their softer feelings in such clear words. They disguised them with glances and questions and neverending arguments.

    “Have you done the dishes yet?”

    Kaveh is packing for a trip. Alhaitham doesn't want him to go.

    Summary

    "Body and soul," Cyno said, staring at Alhaitham. His gaze was sharp and searching, as though he was looking through Alhaitham and into the forest inside him.

    "Alhaitham," Cyno said slowly, "what happened to you during the inauguration?"

    --
    The forests of Sumeru were simultaneously deeply loyal, and unfailingly cruel. Those whom they loved, they loved unconditionally. Those whom they did not care for, they consumed.

    Alhaitham still didn't know which one he was.

    Summary

    “I don’t know any other way of living.”

    She shook her head. “There’s so much more to you than that. I’ve seen it before, Cyno: the kindness and the jokes, the easygoing way you interact with your loved ones. You know exactly what else is there for you, outside of these walls.” Nahida’s eyes were severe in a way Cyno was unused to; it sent shivers down his spine. “But you’re afraid to admit to yourself that you’re so much more than a wielded tool, you’re afraid you’ll lose your purpose otherwise.”

    Summary

    Alhaitham looked up from his book and watched as Cyno stretched lazily, rolling on the couch as he worked out the kinks in his back. He seemed reluctant to actually get up, rubbing his face so hard in the plush cushions of the sofa that he knocked his headdress askew, then sighed and straightened it before collapsing back on the sofa again.

    [There are little things Cyno does that turn out to be fairly huge signs of trust.]
