    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.”

    based on @portalmonsterrr's comic on twitter! it's called memento vivere on there as well, please check it out, because that is what inspired this. <3

    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.

    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.

    Summary

    “Aventurine,” Ratio said his name slowly, looking at the blonde man with disbelieving eyes, “Did we get married?”

    “Ratio,” Aventurine sighed, “Unfortunately, yes.”

    Aventurine and Ratio got drunk and got married in Penacony.

    Summary

    Whatever Ratio had drunk, it must have been strong for him to be acting like this. “Yeah, Doc, it’s time you go to sleep-”

    “I love you.”

    Aventurine’s head whipped back into place to face Ratio. Those words couldn’t be real. Not coming out of Ratio’s mouth, and not directed towards Aventurine. He needed confirmation. He needed confirmation that this was real, he wasn’t dreaming, he wasn’t insane, he was here, he was real and that actually happened. Because not even in his wildest dreams would something as impossible as this occur. Desperately, Aventurine seized Ratio’s arms which were loosening around him as he looked to him for validation.

    Aventurine stared at him in horror.

    Ratio was passed out.

    ◇─◇──◇─◇

    A drunk Ratio admits he loves Aventurine. Only Aventurine remembers the confession by the next morning.

    Summary

    “You’re being more amenable than usual,” Ratio says, carefully, warning bells blaring. “Perhaps you should be feverish more often.”

    Is Doctor Ratio flirting?

    Aventurine should laugh. Any previous thoughts of seeing Doctor Ratio flirt had involved chalk and terrible mathematical pick-up lines. This? Well, it was relatively smooth.

    But he doesn’t laugh.

    Or, after encountering some strange magic on a mission with Ratio, Aventurine wakes not only with a sister but also the title of "Prince". And apparently he's engaged to Ratio. What luck.

    Summary

    Ratio stares back at him. The typical acuity of his eyes has dulled into something more welcoming. He raises a hand, the pads of his gloved fingers brushing against the gems of Aventurine’s earring. “Peacock feathers do not fade or lose their shiny luster, even after the animal has died.”

    “I didn’t think you’d be a maundering drunk,” Aventurine scowls, but doesn’t tilt his head away from Ratio’s hand. The doctor’s words are something that Aventurine is neither drunk nor sober enough to ruminate on.

    or, five conversations aventurine and ratio don't have and one they finally do.

    Summary

    “Are you blind?” Ratio responds almost immediately, “I am resting, gambler.”

    “I’ll be the judge of that,” He decides.

    The Doctor frowns at his words, but otherwise remains still as Aventurine twists around in his seated position. Nimble fingers reach for the book between them, meeting no resistance. For the briefest of moments, their fingers touch. Warm. Even through gloved hands, Aventurine can feel heat oozing off of the other man. Too warm.

    Summary

    Aventurine makes it out of the abyss - and into a different world. Things are different here - simpler. There are no Aeons, no intergalactic factions and corporations, no Paths and Blessings. He is not naïve enough to assume that there is no cruelty and discrimination here - for there always is - but for the most part, everything is peaceful.

    Here, Aventurine's priorities are getting people's coffee orders right. Fairly straight forward, if you ask him.

    Except for the bit where he is surrounded by too many familiar faces, and they remind him of a place he can no longer return to. That's okay. People come and go, and so will they.

     

    Except for the bit where they come and go and come back.

     

    AKA. Aventurine gets dropped into a coffee-shop AU with all the memories from before. He's handling things until he's not handling things. That's okay, because he still has friends (and Dr Ratio) in this world. He just doesn't know it yet.

    Summary

    It was so easy for Aventurine to lean against Ratio with all of his weight, to allow himself to let the doctor do all of the walking whilst Aventurine stumbled over his own feet. Aventurine realized this at some point, and as far as revelations go, he had to say he hated this one in particular. He rarely let himself get like this, because the last thing he wanted was to be pulled around by the whim of another person without any power to stop it. That was dangerous... and not in a way he liked. Yet he did not feel anything dangerous pressed against Veritas Ratio… and that was a realization he did not care to ruminate on. “I think I’m going to throw up,” Aventurine said.

    The doctor sighed tiredly. “Please don’t.”

    It’s rare their goals align. But here they are, travelling together across the cosmos. And of course, every trip needs a few hotel stays. Aventurine took the last room left, a little excited for the inevitable forced proximity.

    His heart dropped.

    There were two fucking beds.

    Summary

    “There you go, love.” A plate with a generous slice of apple pie was set on the table and the man-shaped being across from Crowley made a face that looked like it was trying very hard to be both exasperated and excited.
    “You told me to order for you, so I did,” Crowley said, innocently as you please, “And I happen to be rather fond of apples.”

    ***
    “What can I get ya?” the waitress asked.
    “Well – Molly,” Dean read her nametag, “How ‘bout some of that apple pie?”
    “’fraid that was the last slice,” Molly said and Dean could feel the smile steadily dripping of his face, “We still have cake, though.”
    “No, thanks,” Dean answered, “Just coffee is fine.”

    ***
    It was supposed to be a holiday.
    Crowley and Aziraphale make a trip to the States for a little change of scenery.
    Sam and Dean are still recovering from everything that happened.
    Things sort of go downhill when the Winchesters think they're on a Hunt for a Trickster, then uphill, depending on where you stand, and then they just go sideways.

    Summary

    'Sometimes Kaveh thought he wanted to build houses because of times like this, when he was alone again. He wanted to build spaces where the very bricks were filled with warmth, and the glass sparkling like laughter. Where he wouldn't have to feel so incredibly small.

    He fell back down on the sofa on his back, hair spreading around him.

    But whatever happened today was ruined anyway. It was the same every year.'

    Summary: Kaveh was prepared to spend the anniversary of his father's death alone, as he always did, trying to drink to forget his past. But when Alhaitham finally finds out about why this time is year is so hard for his roommate to bear, he decides it isn't fair for him to be alone. Meanwhile, Kaveh wonders why Alhaitham is suddenly treating him, as both of them begin to realise that perhaps it isn't only convenience that is keeping them together.
