Title: Kayf
Characters: Turkey, Egypt
Rating: PG-13

To eat a pomegranate in a dream signifies you will fall captive to another's charms. Kayf is Arabic for 'well-being' or 'pleasure'.

( Egypt's woken up by the feeling of his keffiyeh being tugged out of place and of a gloved hand trailing up his forearm and shoulder, stopping on the nape of his neck and pinching, twisting the skin and pulling him out of dreams of half-eaten pomegranates. )
