Summary
Both praised and scolded for his performance in Penacony, Aventurine re-negotiates his employment. He quits. --- Kind of.
And if there was ever any benefit to the job in the first place, it was the beautiful wonders of money. The excess of material goods he could give away, the games he could play, and the gamble of keeping his relationships as close but as far away as possible. What happens if he tugs on the rope tying together him and Ratio as "coworkers?" What happens if he pulls on that chain that ties him to the IPC? What if, after everything, Kakavasha could do something worthwhile?
OR
Aventurine and Ratio play a game together: how long can they give each other gifts until they have to acknowledge the meaning? How long can they play games with each other's (and their own) feelings before someone loses?

Sunday is my least favorite day of the week by Kneverk

Summary
The crisp sound of leather heels on tile briefly fill the hallway, before utter silence. A loud, intimidating creak of the metal door should be expected, but it is perhaps the absence of any sound at all that makes the opening of the cell door so eerie. Ratio steps inside, turns on a light for clearer communication, and closes the door behind him. Narrow eyes met one another in suspicion or, perhaps, disdain.
“Doctor Ratio, how kind of you to visit,” the halovian says, sitting with their spine straight, prideful and dignified even in chains locking away the power of an emanator.
Ratio does not respond, merely looking Sunday up and down.
“I have to say, I didn’t expect to see you here. Or anyone, ever again.”
Ratio inhales deeply, closing his eyes. When they open, they glare at Sunday with a renewed purpose.
“I will be very clear with my intent here. I seek closure.”
OR: Sunday is in jail, before Jade speaks with him, and Dr Ratio has some choice words.

Summary
Aventurine had been a slave to the capitalist machine for far too long, and having successfully used the Penacony plot to escape it, then escape the dormancy within the dreamscape, all is well. Ratio is not as pleased with the situation, not knowing whether or not the gambler made it out alive at all. Luckily, Aventurine finds an interesting looking beetle and who better to ask for its name than the knowledgeable Doctor Ratio?

Summary
In this world, everyone has a soulmate ring. It shows you what your soulmate is feeling, and when you meet, it glows bright pink. When they die, it turns black and dusts away. Castiel doesn't really care for soulmates, but he cares about the person on the other side of the world, connecting to him. He'd like to think they're friends.
The ring turns black. But... it doesn't flake away.

a deal in diamonds (memento vivere) by aurae_rori

Summary
“When I die, the IPC will reclaim all of my possessions. I have no surviving family members; nobody will cry for me.” The last bit comes from the collapse of wishful thinking. A bit of sentimentality. Is it part of the act?
Aventurine… nobody would cry for Aventurine. The man who went all in, who tried to bet against the world, the one with good fortune on his side. Flashy smiles, good perfume, and a crisp and clean fashion sense - the hollow shell, the disposable pawn, the uncannily lucky gambling chip.
“So in every sense that matters, I have nothing to lose.”
The crease between Ratio’s eyebrows deepens whilst his movements grow still, as if battling with some sort of internal conflict. Aventurine watched as he comes to a conclusion, turning his gaze to him fully, and then speaking,
“I’d mourn you if you died.”

Owl be there to lend you a talon by HopeMyEmployersDontSeeThis

Summary
Wealth, status, power. It was no lie that he had succeeded in all three under the profession of the IPC. But all of that was lost within a second and he fell back to the gutters. Once more he stood chained, face to face with Jade and his rights stripped away.
After being punished for a crime he didn't commit, Aventurine is back to square one, thrown back into his home planet where he must navigate the harsh conditions of the planet, locate his sister and face the struggles of being (one of) the last Avgin. Maybe he could even get his job back in the process.
However he's not alone as a very moody owl who resembles a certain doctor is there to keep him company.
Or- Owl Ratio fic where it's just him and Aventurine tackling Sigonia

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.

Summary
Writing scientific journals for the sake of retaining research knowledge and data is vital. Or so I've read. So that's what this journal is. I am conducting an experiment--a personal experiment. I'd like to figure out what I need in a person to create a connection and be happy. I have decided I am tired of being lonely and I'd like a companion, preferably a romantic one. However, if life does not deign me deserving of such, then I'd happily take someone to share some of my life with.

Summary
Aventurine has always been lucky. His luck earned him freedom, a position as a Stoneheart, his reputation, and money. It didn't, however, seem to endear him to the IPC's newest consultant.
A re-imagining of the events in Aventurine's life that eventually led him to one Dr. Veritas Ratio.
