❝ OF THOUGHT AND BIRTH DIVINE. ❞
001. 𝐀𝐋 𝐇𝐀𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐌—智慧之神。
Since antiquity, a word goes around in the lands surrounding the capital.
It's nothing new really, an old wives' tale—it has been passed from generation to generation by curious mothers who were once children themselves, having listened to the same story at least thrice from their own mothers before it was ultimately passed down to the next generation.
Your own mother had been shelling peas when she casually brought it up and you as casually dropped the vellum to listen in closer.
'They say the knowledge of prose and poetry is passed down by the God of wisdom, himself, and it is only from his generous blessing that one is able to find skill in these areas that leave most counting stars. '
You laughed, finding it as stupid as a donkey winning in a race of horses.
'Oh?' you questioned, and she passed a side-eye at your smug expression as you continued, 'And how much, pray tell, did you reminisce of', you sarcastically made exclamation marks in the air here, 'the God of wisdom, to have a child so blessed in the knowledge of poetry such as I?'
You did not have the right to complain when her hand playfully came to smack you at the side of your back, your father laughing as he came to settle next to you on the cot, having managed to find some free time from work only then.
'She's right, though, isn't she? Your child is blessed with the knowledge of poetry, why not appreciate it sometimes?'
Your mother passed a fond look before playfully pulling on your ear as you winced just as naughtily to provoke your father into taking your side—
'Aaah! Papa!'
'Don't listen to her! Arrogance keeps surfacing in this child's countenance!'
Your father laughs, affectionately freeing you from your mother as he handed you your vellum and secretively pointed towards his study.
He turns to your mother, 'You can't be like that with her anymore, love. She's grown and will marry away in some time, be kinder.'
Right, you think, rolling your eyes, finding the fun atmosphere deflating as you returned towards the study. You put away father's books from before—logs and registers detailing the exchanges of his store's valuables—absentmindedly staring at the feather in your hand as you played with its ink, making random pictures of flowers on the edge of you sheet.
If the restrictions put on all politically, especially the young who needed the most freedom of all, were not enough already, then there everyone was—putting more pressure socially.
Marriage was never a matter of casualty, if it occurred without inviting family from even the ends of the earth, then it was considered an unsuccessful one—and while you yourself were not big on having kids and romancing boys, the prospect of having a compatible, loving partner was not one that never crossed your mind.
Alas, you stared at the blank sheet with a more than bored look upon your features.
Inspiration was always hard to find.
Putting down your pen you rose with a sigh, gaze shaded with disappointment over inability to complete the poetry. What would rhyme with saccharine, anyway?
Mine?
No, you thought, turning towards the exit of the house without consulting anyone, only vaguely announcing to your father who sat on the cot, quietly enjoying his tea, as his gentle eyes traced your movements.
'I'll be back,' you said, and he nodded with a soft smile. Innocent, he was. Your father, that is. A man of simple but honest means, always smiling and finding joy in the basic things—your mother wasn't selfish herself, but she was certainly much cleverer than her husband.
You chuckled absent-mindedly, they were a cute couple. While most certainly were they a couple put together randomly by their families, they had accidentally ended up being the most compatible for each other than either would today admit. But when the moon danced with the clouds, it were their laughs of genuine amusement, arising from reminiscing old moments spent together, that softly sparked joy within your heart.
It was a tiny wish then, in the very corner of your heart, that if you end up marrying a noble man, then he too, be as lucky as your father had been for your mother.
Lost in thoughts, when the expanse to the lake had been covered, that you did not know but you headed straight towards the still water body. Sitting next to its very edge with a sigh, wallowing in self-pity as you sought to better your mood, you began thus, looking at your reflection in the still water—
'Often do lilies turn to me, hiding faces showered in glee. Shaded in shyness the orchids ask, where were you gone, Malika? and in my innocence I answer, to the devil's lair.'
Silence.
You broke out laughing, finding the poem less descriptive of your own self than it was of the orchid's undying curiosity as its vines spread their feet as far as they possibly could.
And while the poetry itself was a little less than mediocre in your eyes, someone else seemed to have been much too impressed for either of your best interests.
It was when you finally began preparing to rise, having had more than enough ideas to continue your work when he interrupted, both intrigued and upset as he spoke—
'Will you speak no more?'
You turned around quickly, and much to your embarrassment, did not manage to find the source of the voice until he scoffed again and waved his book boredly, 'Here, lady.'
You cocked a brow at him, 'I'm not a lady but you're definitely an auntie. Tell me, what is it?'
He curiously asked, voice managing to hide his internal desperation, 'Will you compose poetry no more?'
You looked him up and down and it was then that you managed to catch a proper glimpse of him as the clouds cleared, as though the Gods themselves were keen on enhancing his divinity, the crown of his hair shaded with pale yellow light.
He was young in appearance, perhaps even a girl's dream husband, but the stillness of his disposition and eyes spoke of a maturity which was rarely found.
You would've described him in fluent poetry, should you have had the patience or the time (or even interest), but just as quickly did the sun hide and the shadow fell upon him once again.
You breathed, and so did he.
You turned around with the attitude of a real Malika, 'No.'
'Why not?', came his answer, just as quick.
You rolled your eyes, turning back with an annoyed expression, 'Don't you know it's rude to listen on to people secretly?'
He sighed, 'Your voice is too melodious not to be listened to, Malika.'
You passed a dull expression, 'Lady to Malika, huh?', then rolled your eyes boredly, 'Chameleon.'
An amused smile stretched across his features, and if it didn't already seem as though the Gods had carved him out of the finest marble, then now it seemed as though sunlight poured from urns onto his ethereal features.
You blushed red at your internal monologue of his beauty.
Why did it matter, anyway?
People were never allowed to choose partners of their own, regardless they be lovers or not. Ideas of romance were better of printed on paper and sold off for gold—not for building your future on. Or so your mother said.
'Lost in thought?', he inquired, sitting up straight as he shut his book, yawning quietly before his gaze turned to meet yours once again.
'No, I know what I have to do.' you shook your head and turned away again, only to lulled in by the trap of his own voice once again.
'Please,' he said, desperate now, and you could not help but feel the smallest pang of shyness at his insistence. 'If not poetry, then talk about something. Anything.'
'Like?', you questioned once again, cursing your curiosity and intrigue with the young man once again. But who were you to deny yourself the simplicity of indulging in conversation with one so charming as him?
He smiled, but only innocence lay behind its drape. 'Like, what's your name?'
The cry of the cuckoo came to you on the wind.
You answered with a glittering smile, 'Y/n. And yours?'
He smiled back, just as illustrious in his wake. 'Al Haitham.'
If you were surprised at the scholarly name, you did not show it.
Silence ensued, in the midst of which none desired to speak. It was the first time you were with him in which he did not desire you to speak, but merely to smile as he watched on, as though unable to move on from the tantalizing spell of your gently tugged lips.
Squirrels curiously peeked from behind trees laden with fruits, as the curious sparrows lined up together in serenity, watching on. Even the mischievous macaque stopped for a moment's notice, taking a break from dropping half-eaten fruits into the water, for the pleasure of watching its surface ripple.
He spoke at long last—voice laced with unimaginable gentleness.
'Pray tell, what troubles you so? Did the poetess/poet not find enough inspiration for her/his work?'
You smiled gently, your heart just as calm as you were, as though under a spell. 'Indeed.'
He chuckled, 'Blessed with a moon-like face and still troubling yourself with inspiration?' he rose suddenly, humming thoughtfully as he came closer to you with a teasing smile.
'Just a suggestion', he said, smile never leaving his features, 'Why not write about how the sun fell for the moon?'
'Oh?', you asked, suppressing a smile at his implication, considering the way the sun seemed to sit right upon his head, as though a crown.
He nodded again, 'The way it so desperately tried to reach her,' his gaze flickered ever so gently towards your hands, 'only to be held back by the confines of the sky.'
'Confines of the sky or confines of its own rule?'
However romantic may the sentence itself might have been, the aura of gentleness contained in him never managed to leave, as though he knew nothing but gentleness for you.
His gaze softly brushed over yours and he pointed towards the small twig stuck in your hair, removing it when you nodded softly.
'Alas, the moon is much too a beauty to be forced into submission,' he playfully answered, 'The sun must find a way to reach her in the end.'
You winked at him, just as playful of nature, if not more. 'Well, he might have to do it quick then. For should the stars reach her before the sun does,' you softly poked his nose at that, 'then the sun will be left watching.'
His gaze glittered with adoration and love, as though he had never seen more beautiful a being. You flattered yourself and turned on your heel, walking away with a smile before his voice came to you once again—
'Will you meet me here tomorrow?'
You turned playfully, the wind playing with your hair, reflecting your saccharine mood.
'What if I don't?', you shouted back, and his laugh came on the wind,
'I'll wait for you regardless!'
And while the question of whether or not you would meet him by the lake the next day was one you would decide on spontaneously, it was magical almost when your pen seemed to simply glide in your hands. Words stringed like necklaces of pearl in quick succession—
You suddenly remembered your mother's tale and the young man, finding it funny how seemingly, a talent for writing was certainly not one that was bestowed upon personally by the 'God of wisdom', whomsoever might the deity behind the name be.
Unless, well, Al Haitham was the deity.
You chuckle to yourself at the prospect, impossible, you think to yourself, feather dipping in ink as you continued the verse.
And understanding with the snap of his finger, the thoughts swirling in your mind, Al Haitham smiles to himself contentedly.
Most often, love is found in the most unexpected of places.
Better it was that way—he laughs to himself as he thinks that.
Confessions of truth and identity would be a tough challenge, but what was love, if not a challenge itself?
Nonetheless, for now, your smile was more than enough for him.

please write something about blue lock as cat dads, like we have cat and its batshit insane <3
my cat was furiously scratching at my bedroom door this morning, so i'm taking that as a sign to write this. here you go anon:
rin owns a void. black fur with bluish green eyes and sharp little fangs. rin adopted him as an emotional support animal after sae left for spain. his name is kuro (黑) which means "black" in japanese because the itoshis are just unoriginal with all pet names. sometimes the cat camouflages with the furniture, but rin knows its habits too well to accidentally sit on him. they have an almost telepathic bond. kuro follows a very strict routine. feeding times are 7 in the morning before rin's football practice and 6 in the evening during dinner. he is calm and quiet most of the time but hisses whenever there are birds in the window. very shy around strangers. will curl his tail around rin's leg and peek out from time to time but does not have the courage to actually approach. sometimes if rin has free time, he takes kuro out to the park and lets him chase after the butterflies. kuro is also very intelligent. knows how to unlock doors, fetch the newspaper, and clean up after using the potty. sometimes spaces out when rin watches his horror movies at night. will blink at the screen owlishly. he's not very skittish when it comes to jumpscares. he just doesn't understand what's going on in the film. his favorite time of the year is during the holidays when rin goes back to kamakura to visit his parents. mama itoshi always sneaks kuro an extra fish bone.
oliver has a cat with heterochromia. his name is björn which is swedish for bear because he is a massive maine coon. flirts with all the tabby cats in his neighborhood and purrs loudly to show off. incredibly fluffy but sheds a lot. very strong physically. one time he moved oliver's entire closet because he did not like how it was blocking his cat door. secretly the leader of a cat gang, but oliver doesn't know. pretty chill most of the time and enjoys large family gatherings. multilingual because he can respond to commands in swedish, japanese, and german. he also knows a little bit of danish. oliver taught him a few tricks as a kitten. he can twirl around, roll over, and give high-fives. despite his large size, björk is very flexible and light on his feet. one time he got into the cookie jar on the top pantry shelf, and oliver's mom had to shoo him out.

"shit," you mumble to yourself at the unintentional scratch of lead marring the design you've been working on. your hand reaches for the softened rubber to correct your mistake.
no matter how many times you run the eraser back and forth over your indecisive lines, the pencil markings won't disappear. a frustrated huff pushes past your lips as you tear the page from the sketchbook you're borrowing from mitsuya. that bit makes you feel a little guilty for wasting so much of his paper but, when you think about it, this is all because of him anyway.
the parchment pokes at your palms as you crumple the piece of paper. you toss it into the growing pile of others just like it before rubbing your eyes with the heels of your palms.
"not going well?" you register mitsuya's familiar voice immediately as he rounds the furniture you're settled on. you can feel the couch dip with his added weight. hands warmed from the steam of a shower wrap around your ankles, gently pulling your legs so that your calves are resting on his thighs.
you uncover your eyes to look at mitsuya. his lavender hair is still damp from the shower, the fluffy ends brushing the top of his bare shoulders with each rise and fall of his chest. matching, droopy eyes bore into you but the lazy smile playing at his lips makes his stare less intimidating and persuades you to share your struggles. "no, it's not. maybe you should be the one doing this."
"that wasn't the deal." mitsuya laughs, letting his fingers run down from your knee to your foot and back up. the movement is almost graceful and despite how minuscule it is, the comfort behind it is palpable. "you're supposed to design it, i'm just in charge of making it."
