    Summary

    He knows he hasn't bled on the bed.

    He hasn't invited anyone to bleed on his bed. (Though he does recall a certain gambler doing so uninvited before.)

    So why in Nous' name is there a speck of blood on his pillow?

    OR

    Ratio finds a tiny blonde fennec fox in his house, injured and hungry. He cares for it and patches it up and gives it a place to sleep.

    So why is that same fennec not where he remembers it?

    Summary

    Aventurine’s face warmed, his neck prickled with sweat as he smiled — the kind where he’d normally exchanged with someone if he happened to lock eyes with a stranger on the street after more than 3 seconds. But, their gazes lingered.

    Almost far too long

    to be considered anything normal between strangers.

    Or:

    Aventurine lives in a flat right across from his new neighbor, Veritas Ratio.

    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.

    When Ratio vanishes, Aventurine follows the trail to a quiet planet by the sea.

    The man he finds there isn’t the one he remembers and yet, somehow, exactly who he expected.

    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.
