My personal take on Alhaitham is that he lives in a constant Schrödinger's Cat state where he is both 110% convinced that he and Kaveh will be married one day and also 110% convinced that that "one day" isn't coming any time soon, so when it does finally happen, I know in my heart of hearts that the one who is most taken by surprise will be Alhaitham.
Kaveh: Sorry, this has been a long time coming, but I finally sorted through my feelings and--
Literally Everyone Else: Oh, finally.
Alhaitham:
#genshin impact#Alhaitham#Kaveh#haikaveh#kavetham#he's been married to Kaveh in his head since he was like 15 years old#but the moment it comes time to actually confess#his ass will NOT be ready#I FEEL it in my bones#all those glib one-liners are just going to abandon him#he's probably going to teleport himself right off the divine tree#I also know it's pretty du jour to have Alhaitham finally man up and express his feelings with words in fics#but I genuinely think he's the type who sees what he already has and weighs the practical risks of losing it#he's content; he's okay; his life is good as it is because Kaveh's already close by#so even though he's telling himself “Surely it's inevitable”#I ALSO think he's prepared to just WAIT until the end of time#Kaveh is going to have to be the one to put them both out of their misery#just like he's the one who has to do everything els--#*shot*
