    Summary

    Ratio presses one of the buttons, and the screen lights up. The numbers on it flash for a moment before settling at 0.200.

    “In this area alone, the concentration of ambient memoria is 200 millisomni per square inch. Not enough to induce hallucinations, but we may have some interesting dreams while we’re here. And the citizens of Vara-II have been having such dreams likely their entire lives. The effects of nuclear radiation on memoria have not been studied, so I can’t say for sure what effects this has had on their societal development. But I doubt it’s helped them keep a level head.”

    (During a negotiation on a planet with a history of IPC-enabled nuclear warfare, Aventurine and Ratio get stuck alone in an old fallout shelter-turned-museum after a bomb drops, with Aventurine severely injured. They've got the supplies to last until an IPC rescue ship can arrive, but the planet's already-unstable memoria has been stirred up, and they're periodically forced to relive the memories of the shelter's original inhabitants. And things didn't go well for the shelter's original inhabitants.)

    Summary

    The first time Aventurine manages to drop off a half-melted custom .44 Magnum at their new technical director’s office, he’s almost surprised the indigo-haired man doesn’t even blink an eye.

    “In the ‘scrap’ bin, please,” Ratio says nonchalantly as he flicks through what is — presumably — a blueprint for his next project.

    Aventurine can’t help himself. “Aw, you made a bin just for me?”

    Aventurine may have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, but hey, he's always fine in the end. The same can't be said for the gadgets his tech director gives him, though... and that may be a bit of a problem for Ratio.

    (Or, 5 times Aventurine fails to return Ratio’s equipment unscathed, and 1 time he doesn’t.)

    Summary

    Crushes weren't for people like Aventurine. Love certainly wasn't. No, Aventurine couldn't afford to be in love, he had more important things to get to. Investments to make, assets to liquidate, missions to do.

    Except, one thing was for certain. That he, Aventurine, had a crush on the good doctor. And he has no idea what to do about it.

    (This was bad. This was really bad.)

    Aventurine realizes he's in love with one Veritas Ratio and goes through the 5 stages of grief.
