      ⸻       one   of   these   days   ,   the   architect   might   be   spared   of   the   scrutiny   under   his   roommate.   it   was   a   tendency   ,   that   kaveh   acknowledged   and   respected   (   to   an   extent   )   ,   but   sometimes   it   would   be   overstepping.   after   all   ,   everyone   had   secrets   —   even   scholars   ,   and   yet   ,   alhaitham   is   determined   to   deprive   the   artisan   of   his   stockpile.
Tumblr media
  he   tousles   his   hair   ,   fidgeting   with   fibres   of   sunlight   ,   as   he   attempts   to   muster   a   response   that   might   pass   under   the   radar   of   the   scribe.   whose   eyes   seem   to   resemble   the   likes   of   machinery   rather   than   the   living.   ❝   oh   ,   i   have   plenty   to   say   on   a   daily   basis.   but   ,   only   now   ,   you   care   to   bring   it   up   ?   ah   ,   that’s   just   like   you   ,   alhaitham.   choosing   to   discuss   things   only   when   you   deem   it   fit   !   ❞   he   lets   more   than   he   intended   to   slip   past   reddened   lips   ,   vexed   from   his   conjured   frustrations.
  he   can   only   hope   that   it   is   enough   to   deter   the   scholar   from   prying   any   further.
  but   his   reprimand   does   not   cease   there   ,   for   he   solidifies   his   point   in   the   redirection   towards   his   awaiting   project.   and   should   the   bothersome   disturb   him   further   ,   he   bares   his   back   to   him   ,   displaying   his   disinclination   more   than   his   words   could   ever   convey.
