Summary
It’s all rather refreshing, as though nothing had really changed. The journey to the bath and back to bed is an arduous task at best, and Aventurine doesn’t begin to fool himself into thinking he’s in any fit state to do anything much more than this for now, but Ratio’s company is a welcomed one, if only in the way it always has been.
Maybe, in another life, they might have made for quite the formidable pair. Oh, well.

or, Ratio brings Aventurine back from Penacony.

Veritas Ratio V.S. The Universe by cakecats

Summary
Apocalypse: Star Rail might be the worst game Dr. Veritas Ratio has ever played. In what world is murdering half the known universe for no reason even remotely reasonable? What kind of game kills off its most compelling characters just for shock value?
Also, why is he now in the game — and as a damn NPC, out of all things?
【 Activation Code: “Moronic developers, moronic game.” It is our sincere wish that during your time, you can fulfill your desires and, in accordance with your wish, transform a piece of moronic work into a magnificent, high-quality, first-rate classic. Bound Role: Unnamed male NPC of the Veritas Prime star system, age 0. 】
【 Congratulations! Welcome to Apocalypse: Star Rail, version ██! 】
Well. If these idiot developers can’t take constructive criticism, Veritas might as well construct the criticism himself… by forcibly inserting himself into a plot where he’s never existed.

"Here is today's weather forecast: There will be a light drizzle starting 10 AM and may intensify throughout the day. Heavy rain is expected later on in the evening. Anticipate heavy rainfall in the next few weeks."
Ratio sighed as he turned off the TV, retrieved his umbrella, and headed out for work.
...
The world is stuck in a cycle of rain and so is Aventurine. Fortunately, Ratio has an umbrella.

Summary
Ratio tapped the pick-up option on the screen and put Aventurine on speaker.
“Aventurine, you’re on-”
“Hey, babe,” Aventurine’s voice echoed around the board room, bouncing off every surface possible, resounding much too loudly in everyone’s ears, “Just checking, you’re still coming over tonight, right?”
Everyone went dead silent.
◇─◇──◇─◇
Ratio puts Aventurine on speaker during a meeting with the IPC. In hindsight, he should have warned him first.

Summary
Ratio was in his cozy royal blue robe, its silk belt loosely tied around his waist, exposing his well toned chest, rising and falling slowly with his breathing. Aventurine felt his cheeks heat up at the sight. And further up, his gold tinted reading glasses had stooped on the edge of his nose. How cute.
Aventurine placed Storge down and gently removed the Doc’s glasses, quietly letting them on the coffee table. He turned and… There it was. Ratio’s enchanting visage, free from any care in the world, in deep sleep.
And that’s when it struck him, as if an apple hit Aventurine’s head in realisation.
He had never seen Ratio sleeping before.
Or in which Aventurine and Ratio work through showing vulnerability at the start of their domestic life.

“She'll need stability,” he says after a moment. He finds Aventurine's gaze over the girl’s head. “You'll need to figure out what you plan to do in this…venture of yours. We will deduce a plan of action once you’ve decided.”
There it is again, that casually spoken ‘we’.
Aventurine laughs weakly, plucking at a blue crayon. “Yeah,” he says. “Yeah, we will.”

Without a contingency to fall back on, Aventurine rescues an orphan from the wreckage of her home-world. Ratio, perceptive as ever, finds out.

Summary
There is an inexplicable draw to Veritas Ratio, even as little as Aventurine actually knows about him, something beyond whatever surface level attraction there was to begin with. It’s not so ridiculous—Veritas is attractive, seems to be interested in Aventurine, and inexplicably was able to drop everything to run his mothers’ florist business for three months. That kind of person is fascinating, objectively, and unique things have always caught Aventurine’s attention.
He can’t remember the last time he looked at someone and thought, I think I want to date you, but that’s enough of an anomaly to make Veritas someone worth learning more about.
♡

Summary
. ♤ . ♡ . ♢ . ♧ .
‘Aventurine grew up into a body that he didn’t own, yet even if he did he would feel just as safe entrusting it to Ratio.’
. ♤ . ♡ . ♢ . ♧ .
Another year, another Kakava. For years (most of his life, actually) Aventurine would avoid anything that reminded him of the long-forgotten festival like the plague. Yet, a recent development in his personal life involving a certain doctor had gotten him thinking along more sentimental lines.
Before he knew it, Aventurine was on a frantic quest to perfectly recreate a dish from his childhood. Ratio, none the wiser, just wanted to know why his partner was now obsessed with herbs, making him live off stew and acting even more antsy than he usually did this time of year.

Uncharted Vices by Pop_Tea for Alkiyoni

Summary
When Ratio first smiled at him, Aventurine didn’t really feel anything special. He had been faintly delighted, but that was it.
When Ratio invited him over to his apartment, Aventurine had been surprised. Ratio must’ve really wanted to finish the planning of their recent objective.
When Ratio first held forth a bouquet of flowers, Aventurine thought that Ratio's apartment must not be as spacious as he previously thought if it couldn't house a simple vase of flowers. He's honored to have been chosen as Dr. Ratio's personal storage, though.
It was only when the good doctor showed up at his door—dripping with rain and sweat—and barged into his apartment, asking Aventurine to ‘verily respond to his advances and to repudiate them now, instead of leading him on like a stray animal’, that something seemed to be amiss.
Don't be fooled. This is far from a silly, happy romcom.

Summary
Ratio looked incredulous, almost comically so. “Hate you? Gambler, you cannot possibly be this dense. Are you mentally sound? Shall I request a psychiatrist?”
Aventurine had expected him to deny it, but not with such fervour. “Indeed, I have succumbed to idiocy in your absence, doc. Be a dear and clarify for my foolish self, would you?”

Aventurine relearns what it's like to be loved.

The Final Hypothesis by Lee_Outis for waferefawafer
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
27 Oct 2024
Tags
Summary
As a doctor, Ratio had always approached death clinically. He’d seen it peaceful, violent, and everything in between. But now that his own death is approaching, detachment seems impossible. He’d watched families cling to loved ones and seen how patients lingered in the presence of their friends. Ratio understands now why they couldn’t let go.
They reach the lake. If Aventurine’s hands tremble as they row, Ratio pretends it's from exertion.
What does death feel like? His answer to that question would be his greatest and final hypothesis.
(Ratio doesn’t know.)
Or:
Veritas Ratio gets bitten by a zombie.

“Well, it can’t hurt for me to try again. Maybe one day you’ll finally tell me what we both know,” he croons, sauntering over to Ratio’s side and glancing him up and down. “Or maybe that day will be today?”
“...Just get it over with.”
“That’s not how you should treat a man about to confess to you,” Aventurine teases, but raises his hands in surrender when Ratio directs a glare at him. “Alright, alright. Veritas Ratio, my most dearly beloved, will you tell me that you love me too?”
The response is immediate. “No.”
“Ah well, it was worth a shot.” He laughs. ‘Let’s get you some coffee, shall we?”
Every day, Aventurine tries to get Ratio to confess his love for him. He refuses each time.

Summary
Aventurine felt the sterile press of Ratio's lips over his. In his weakest moments, particularly during rainy days, when his heartbeats matched the pitter-patter of the rain and he was all too reminded of his loneliness, Aventurine had fantasized about how it'd feel to kiss Ratio.
It was nothing like the truth.

Drunk and Stupid (but painfully honest) by entowento
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
15 Jun 2024

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.
