    Summary

    Aventurine did not care.

    He didn’t.

    He didn’t care at all that the good doctor had been dressing to the nines in something new every time they met. Because Aventurine of the stratagems didn’t care that some alpha was obviously trying to court someone. Someone other than him.

    Or- poor ratio is pining so loud and aventurine cannot get a hint and vice versa.

    Summary

    “YOU put US in this situation gambler. If you didn’t propose on tagging us along, we wouldn’t be here stuck fighting these monsters in a desert.” The doctor struck a death glare.

    “Well, YOU agreed to it too. Not entirely my fault now since you played right into my hands.” The gambler rolled his eyes. The monsters they ran from rushed in incredible speeds. The gambler straightened his stance, holding out his hand towards him with a couple of poker chips between his fingers. “High risk, high reward, Ratio!”

    Ratio scoffed. Becoming a warrior was not in his job description in the Intelligentsia Guild yet here he was in an unknown world washed in uncertainty with his dearest, Aventurine.

    tl;dr Dr. Ratio and Aventurine get stuck in Teyvat.

    Summary

    Aventurine’s chest hurts. He can feel something thick and wet dripping down his front, but when he looks down there’s nothing there.

    Is this real? This can’t be real. Ratio’s expression is achingly sincere, a look that he’s never seen before. Surely the professor wouldn’t be caught directing such feelings at Aventurine of all people.

    And yet, the man leans over the desk to gently brace his palms against the sides of Aventurine’s face. Aventurine realizes that he can’t feel the chair underneath him, or the scratch of fur trim against his neck, or the wood grain under his fingers—Ratio’s warm touch is the only thing that feels real.

    “There are people waiting for you, Aventurine. I don’t know if that thought brings you comfort, but it is the truth.”

    Aventurine is having a confusing time at the Horizon of Existence.

    Summary

    Aventurine nods, curiously waiting for Ratio to elaborate. Is Ratio planning to read to him? That is the sort of activity Ratio would consider leisurely, albeit rather mundane. Still, Aventurine muses, Ratio does have a pleasant voice, so it wouldn't be so bad.

    With a determined nod, Ratio extends his hand expectantly, the other hovering over the book he had placed on the ladder earlier. After a moment's hesitation, Aventurine accepts.

    As Ratio's hand touches the book, Aventurine feels a sudden lurch, and that's all the warning he gets before they're falling.

    Or:

    Veritas Ratio possesses the unique ability to enter the world of any book he touches. He uses it to take Aventurine on not-dates.

    Summary

    They were both lying– Veritas more obviously than Aventurine, for once. Veritas’s strained attempts at returning back to normalcy were snuffed out the moment Aventurine sat down on the nearest couch, guiding his eyes back to the Stoneheart’s form. Now that Veritas was this close, he couldn’t help but notice how Aventurine’s eyes seemed to almost glaze over, his smile belying the untruth that permeated in the air between them. There was no use in any of this, no sense– Veritas wanted to back down, but something in him knew that that would only make things worse.

    Perhaps this was Aventurine’s twisted plan all along, and Veritas was simply too much of an idiot not to fall for it.

    Veritas wants to retrieve Aventurine, but a different kind of desire soon takes hold as he finds that the Stoneheart seems to have other plans for that night.

    Summary

    He should be focusing on the work on his desk in front of him. Instead, he is reduced to a quivering mess at the thought of something as simple as prayer.


    (It is not so simple to Aventurine, not so simple to Kakavasha. The thought of prayer alone does not leave him anxious. What does is the emptiness that surrounds him, in this room and in this life he lives. With a cold lump of dread he acknowledges the fact that he could not pray, even if he wanted to indulge the longing, because he only has one set of palms where there should be two.


    The prayer would not be complete if he spoke the words alone. They require a partner, someone he can trust with this fragile piece of himself and these sacred words that will one day be lost because he is the last one to know their cadence. And surely that is where his gifted luck draws the line, because no such person exists–)


    There is a knock on his office door.

    aventurine has not prayed in a long time. ratio changes that

    Summary

    Before "dying", Aventurine would not have dreamed of laying exposed like this. And yet, here he is, giving everything to Ratio like he didn't just emerge from the depths of an endless sea. Surely, the best way to live is to have a quick fuck. That's what he thought as he approached Ratio, and in turn, he didn't even have to speak a word, just glared, grabbed him by the wrist, and threw him against the mattress.

    So Aventurine thinks he's safe, that this will be usual business.

    But, this isn't just a quick fuck.

    Or: Aventurine is alive. Ratio and Aventurine love in the only way they can.

    “I’ve recently acquired a few… nuisances from the Herta Space Station, for the purpose of study.” He shifted aside in his chair, revealing the three quavering cakes.

    Topaz melted. “Aww, look at them!”

    “I’d rather not.”

    “Wake up already… you damned gambler…”

    Weeks after Aventurine’s gamble in Penacony, Ratio is still tending to him in Reality. But even when his efforts pay off, there are still many wounds left behind.

    Some of them may be far too severe to ever be healed… but that won’t stop Ratio from trying, anyway.
