    Summary

    It truly was impressive to see just how hopeless that man was for to Mydei. All anyone had to do was bring up the prince’s name, and Phainon’s ears would perk up like he had just heard a crucial detail to attack in a debate.

    In fact, Hyacine mused, you probably didn’t even have to bring up Mydei's name. Phainon would inevitably derail any conversation into an ode to his muse’s greatness.

    Hyacine as she observes (against her will) the strange relationship between Phainon and Mydei over the years.

    Summary

    Veritas really isn't sure why practically everyone in his life seems to think that his intellect no longer functions when it comes to matters of the heart. One of his degrees is in Psychology, he'll have you know, and another in Literature - he is well aware of how to be romantic when he wishes to be! Regardless, it comes to his attention only much later that many of his loved ones and community members have been extremely proactive in their support of his relationship long before it actually began...

    Or, over the course of the year following the Penacony incident, Aventurine meets a lot of weird academic types who seem to think that he and Ratio either are dating or should be.

    Summary

    please come home (i need you here, right now)

    "Doc," he gasped out, squirming when Ratio's hands pinched at his nipple, his hand covering almost the entire expanse of his chest. "Ratio, slow down, I can't–"

    "You can," Ratio nipped at his ear, dragging his tongue across the shell. "You're doing well, does it feel good?"

    "I love you," Ratio said quietly; a confession, a promise, an oath. "You deserve all this, and more."

    That was all it took to push Aventurine over the edge, crying out Ratio's name, shuddering through his release, tears spilling as he rode out his orgasm, as Ratio held him through it, peppering kisses along his face, kissing away his tears.

    Aventurine choked on a sob, eyes fluttering open, his breath stuttering as he came back to his senses; the dampness on his hand, the tears that had slid from his eyes to the pillow, and the crumpled sheets under him.

    Humiliating, Aventurine thought, as he shuffled out of his bed, stumbling to the bathroom to clean up the mess in his pants. How filthy, and disgusting, and perverted.

    When Aventurine is told to sign off on the promotion of a subordinate, he thinks it to be nothing out of the ordinary until he sees the man in person and is reminded of his past.

    Summary

    He is just a man. Slightly smaller than average, nearly a head shorter than Ratio himself, but a man nonetheless.

    They have worked together for years. Why is he only now so.. bothered, by the size of him? Is that the correct word to describe these emotions? Was it a singular incident that spawned this fascination, or a compounding number of many smaller incidents? Why?

    "Hey, doctor?"

    Dr. Ratio is distracted by how small Aventurine is compared to him, his classroom forums have noticed his different demeanor, and Aventurine really just wants to get this mission done.

    Summary

    "Perhaps, Dr. Ratio is exactly what everyone would picture a genius to be — passionate, profound, fervent, and inherently dominating."

    But brilliance alone cannot fill the void of a father’s absence or a mother’s cold ambition.

    When Professor Rond crosses paths with a child prodigy, he sees not just an exceptional mind, but the emotionally-deprived boy beneath it. With love and care, that boy grows into the beloved scholar the cosmos knows as Dr. Ratio — a man who, against all odds, finds his place in the great world around him.

    Or: How Dr. Ratio came to be.

    Summary

    Eight doctorates in your 30s? Common sense dictates that's impossible.

    And yet there he was, a genius among the mundane. The key to this astonishing success was his first invention and the most guarded secret — a machine that allowed him to step above human constraints. He never shared with anyone that he'd already seen, and rejected, Nous.

    This is a story about how one day, a heartstopping meeting shook Dr. Ratio's entire perfectly optimized life.

    Summary

    “Why’d you call me a gambler?”

    Ratio’s head tilts again. His face doesn’t move much. But Aventurine swears he sees the shadow of something like amusement in his features—wry and private, like he’s smiling at a joke no one else heard.

    “I can hear it,” Ratio says.

    “Hear what?”

    “Every time you shift your weight,” Ratio responds, voice low, “there’s a coin in your coat or pants pocket. It strikes against the lining three times—once when you move, twice when you stop. It’s weighted. Slightly larger than standard-issue credits. Smooth edge. It doesn’t roll.”

    Aventurine stares.

    Ratio lifts his chin. “It is not a commemorative token. It is not a medallion. It’s the kind used in high-stakes tables. Heavy enough to flip with flair, thick enough to stack without slippage. You gamble. Or you want people to think you do.”

    A beat.

    Aventurine’s mouth goes a little slack. His tongue clicks against the roof of it, dry. “You heard that?”

    “I hear everything,”

    Aventurine laughs, but it’s shaky, breathless. “You're unnerving, you know that?”

    “I get that frequently.”

    Summary

    If his eyes could glow, he'd most certainly sell them. Anyone would be a fool not to.

     

    When his information and photo is put onto a black market website with a hefty sum for his head, it is Aventurine himself who takes on the task of infiltrating the market with the intent to either raze it to the ground, or turn it into something profitable for the IPC. Truly, the only entertaining element is that it is Veritas Ratio who must follow him through a swarm of hunters waiting to sink their claws deep into his throat.

    Summary

    Ratio didn’t respond, instead brushing the hair from Aventurine’s eyes so tenderly that it hurt. Aventurine should have known Ratio wouldn’t be so easily distracted. Ratio cupped Aventurine’s face, looking him in the eye like a lover. Like an equal.

    Aventurine had to blink back tears.

    “Aventurine,” Ratio said, soft, sincere. But then, Ratio was always sincere with him when it counted, “Dearest.”

    That nickname. It was stupid to get so emotional over it. And yet.

    Aventurine took a shuddering breath, “Yes?”

    His heart was pounding almost painfully. He cared about Ratio way too much.

    Ratio held him like he was everything and said, “You need more friends.”

    In which, at Ratio's insistence, Aventurine tries to make some friends.

    “Is it always like this with you?” Aventurine asked. “Starting riots, setting fires, escaping by the skin of your teeth?”

    Still sorta annoyed, Boothill grumbled, “You’re makin’ it sound like a bad thing.”

    Aventurine laughed so suddenly he seemed to almost surprise himself. “A bad thing? Hah! Not at all.” He ran a hand, shining with gold, through his hair. “Not at all.”

    After a hostile takeover gets a little…hostile, Aventurine needs to lay low for a few weeks. Luckily, Boothill’s willing to lend a helping hand.

    There is a soft pop, and then the coffee mug tumbles down, bounces off the edge of the chair and breaks on the floor as there is no longer a Veritas Ratio to hold it anymore.

    For Doctor Veritas Ratio, the time spent inside the curio passes by in the blink of an eye.

    For Aventurine, the time spent in reality passes by horribly slowly.
