Summary
“Hey, that’s—”
“You’ll feel far better when the menial tasks are out of the way.”
“Ugh.” Damn Ratio for being right. Aventurine knows he’s right. In any normal case, he’d give himself that very advice ten times over. After all, he didn’t make it to P45 by humming and hawing. “So, what's your smart plan, oh venerable genius of mine? Surely we don’t need all of these?”

Between a gaggle of cold-ridden cat cakes, a rare bout of burnout from an arduous mission, and the looming fact that he has to decorate for the IPC's belated holiday celebration, Aventurine finds himself inadvertently enlisting the upright Dr. Ratio for help.- Language:

Summary
Aventurine clicks his tongue as he continues to stare at the display. After a moment, he decides. “Two slices of the classic chocolate cake please. To go.”
Veritas’ hands work quickly, grabbing two boxes from the side and sliding open the display counter glass door.
“Ah yes, excellent choice to satisfy a sweet craving,” Veritas comments as he scoops up the slices, smiling as the chocolate cake is no longer whole.
“No no, it's not for me. I don't like sweets,” Aventurine says.
In which small cake shop owner, Veritas Ratio, pursues his sudden infatuation for a certain customer.

Summary
The man bristled, his gaze darting around with nervous uncertainty. “What’s the catch?” His tone was wary and thick with distrust.
“As I said,” Veritas gripped his sleeve, trying to temper his frustration, “you will be my lab assistant.” He paused. “This does mean that you will take orders from me, but it will be as an employer, not a master. You maintain the right to refuse and leave my company at any time, however, as one with far more experience in navigating the real world, I would not advise doing so until you have a stronger foundation.”
“...” The former slave’s expression flattened into something difficult to read. He almost looked like a different person altogether without his usual facade of faux-confidence. “You’re a strange man, doctor.”
“So I’ve been told.”
--
Ratio is 'gifted' a slave. Even though he frees the man from his service immediately upon arrival, he can't help but feel responsible for the well-being of a person with nowhere else to go.
So, in lieu of any better ideas, he takes the former slave on as his lab assistant. Just until he gets back on his feet, of course.
