Summary
"Veritas," he whispers.
"Yes, love?"
Oh, that's—he's never called Aventurine that before. Not like that. Never so softly. The endearment lands with enough force to propel him forward before doubt can catch up.
“When you get back,” Aventurine ventures, finally letting the thought leave the safety of his head, “do you want to move in?”
A year in the life of Aventurine and Veritas—and the nerve-wracking ordeal of figuring out the whole relationship thing.

Summary
Aventurine shudders when Ratio's mouth parts around his pulse. Like he expects Ratio to bite down, just like this. His breath hitches like he wishes Ratio would.
“Sometimes, I still think I can taste you,” he continues, emboldened by the tremor in Aventurine's breath. “As though the flavor of you never quite left my tongue.”
Aventurine blinks up at him, lashes half-lowered. His tongue flicks briefly across his lips before he smiles.
“Doctor,” he drawls, “if you wanted another taste, you could’ve just said so.”
The start of Aventurine's and Ratio's relationship—or whatever the nearest approximation of that might be—is promising. There is, in theory, potential for emotional intimacy and mutual understanding. In practice, however, Ratio’s fangs remain an inconvenient anatomical detail, one that consistently undermines any such progression.

Summary
“This is childish.”
“I’m just asking if you want a turn on the pool float.”
“No, I do not want a turn on the pool float!” Ratio groans, exasperation spilling forth. “This is entirely unnecessary and immature—”
“Fine,” Aventurine interjects, effectively pausing the doctor’s tirade. “Then don’t. But you should know that the duck will be saddened by your rejection.” He throws Ratio a knowing glance. “As will I.”
Ratio exhales a weary breath, lifting a hand to signal a pause. He takes a moment to steady himself before coming to a decision.
“You are unbelievable,” he mutters beneath his breath. “Fine. I will try the damned thing.”
Following their tribulations in Penacony, Aventurine and Ratio receive an unexpected gift from Jade—a much-needed vacation at at the most exclusive resort in the cosmos.
With only each other, the sun, and the beach for company, it's a stark contrast to their everyday lives. As they struggle with the complicated shift in their relationship, a disappearance at the hotel, and the constant battle to keep their emotions in check, it all threatens to unravel completely.

Summary
For years, Ratio has assured himself that he is happy.
He has spent countless nights reaffirming that the prospect of a lifetime spent alone—basking in the quiet comforts of domestic bliss—is the most suitable path for him. Safe. Predictable. Undisturbed.
It is only fitting that Aventurine of the Stonehearts should be the one to intrude upon his carefully constructed existence and irreversibly change everything.
Veritas Ratio has reached a point in his life where the troublesome urges of his secondary gender no longer affect him, making him the ideal candidate to help the late-presenting omega, Aventurine, navigate the changes in his life. The plan is simple: They will endure Aventurine’s heats together until the new omega's cycle stabilizes.
What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
This isn’t how the mission was supposed to go.
Not with Ratio behind a locked door, falling apart piece by piece.
And definitely not with Aventurine on the outside, wishing he knew how to put him back together.
Or worse—knowing exactly how.
A mission takes an unexpected turn when Ratio unknowingly ingests a drink laced with remnants of the Propagation. Fearing he might lose control and hurt Aventurine, he locks himself away to ride it out alone. It’s up to Aventurine to coax him back out—but that’s easier said than done when he can’t bring himself to admit his feelings for the one person he can’t afford to lose.

Summary
"Now. Must I remediate basic survival instincts, as well? Stand up or get shot."
Aventurine doesn't understand half of those words, but it doesn't matter. The gun speaks clearly enough.
Kakavasha's riskiest gamble pays off, and he is hired by the Interastral Peace Corporation as Aventurine. A second chance at life, if he can survive it.
Without a Synesthesia Beacon, every conversation is a puzzle, a bluff. The new Stoneheart has learned to fake fluency in the IPC's language, Universalis, the same way he learned everything else: through observation and context, by slipping through the cracks with charm and deception.
That is, until Dr. Ratio cares enough to scrutinize him, and refuses to look away.

Summary
“I always think of you,” Aventurine says at once, leaning close. “And I miss you like hell.” How could I not? You’re my adolescence.
Veritas kisses him first. It happens like this: one hand on his cheek, the other at his nape, pulling him in. Aventurine stretches his legs, lets Veritas lie down on top of him. They kiss as if they’re still talking—and they are. They trade breath, because kissing, besides devouring, also means this: placing commas and full stops. Their moans chase one another like they used to on the school field, when they were boys, before Aventurine joined the Club and Veritas was the only person who really mattered.
Or: Aventurine and Ratio meet for the first time in high school, and they’re inseparable. But when Aventurine is invited to join an exclusive school club—the Ten Stonehearts—while Ratio is left on the sidelines, nursing a secret feeling that goes beyond friendship. Their bond begins to fracture… until it breaks completely.
Three years later the balance has shifted—Ratio shines while Aventurine feels adrift. But history tends to repeat itself, and when a reunion brings them face to face, the past is never buried.

Summary
When Veritas stumbles across one of Aventurine's more private hobbies, it leads to a problem that is quick to spiral massively out of hand. Quite literally.

Summary
It'll be easy. A quick hit. In and out. I wouldn't give you anything complicated on your wedding anniversary, Aventurine.
Unfortunately, the fact that Veritas Ratio, his husband of five years, is standing over the corpse of the man Aventurine was sent to kill, makes this job very complicated, indeed.
(inspired by Mr. & Mrs. Smith)
