    Summary

    That Ratio cared about him at all was not a surprise. For all his sternness, there was a wellspring of incomprehensible devotion in him, a doctor’s instinct for the damned. The surprise was how much Aventurine wanted him to. How he’d slipped and lost his footing the moment he’d felt like someone would catch him. Aventurine couldn’t afford that comfort, and Ratio couldn’t afford the trouble Aventurine would bring him, inevitably, the distractions and the nonsense and all the reckless gambles.

    Aventurine had cheated fate enough. And Ratio had other battles, more worth his while.

    Summary

    “If it’s you, then I suppose that’ll be the best case scenario.” Aventurine said, his demeanor relaxed as if nothing happened. “What’s more fun than being able to dive deep into that head of yours and feel like I’m disappointed at people all the time? Ah, but don’t strike me down if I get a song stuck to your head.”

    Ratio sighed, and he released Aventurine’s arm.

    “I’d prefer if you don’t think about doing that.”

    Or:

    Ratio and Aventurine are testing a Curio where it makes them share their thoughts and emotions.

    Summary

    “I’ve heard,” Asovan says, pleasantly, “that Aventurine of Stratagems is often assigned to clients who prefer concessions of a personal nature.”

    Veritas’s jaw hardens. So it’s to be one of those.

    (During negotiation, a client forces Ratio to watch him and Aventurine have sex. Jealousy's a bitch, and not helped by how Aventurine doesn't seem to care about that part of his job at all. He cares so little, in fact, that it wouldn't have to mean anything at all if he slept with Ratio, right?)

    Summary

    “You need something with which to occupy yourself, and taking care of animals can be psychologically stabilizing,” Ratio says. “These particular animals are self-sufficient enough to not be too much work for a first-time pet owner, but still possess conventionally appealing characteristics. Given your situation, they are the best option.”

    “I don’t--” Aventurine exhales and pinches between his eyebrows. “Ratio, I don’t want pets.”

    (While waiting to find out if he's been fired, Aventurine's been having some unpleasant nightmares. Ratio brings him some creations to try to improve his mental health. They're surprisingly helpful--but they've got their work cut out for them.)
