Summary
Bloody footsteps with no discernable source litter the ground, leading all the way to a small love couch in a corner. There's an indent in the seat cushion, and the backrest behind it, as if someone were sitting there, but there's no one to be found. Almost –
Almost like a ghost is sitting there.
"Ratio," Aventurine begins slowly, cautiously in a way that makes Ratio feel even more weary, "I'd like you to meet my sister."
In which Aventurine asks Ratio to play the role of his lover in front of the ghost of his deceased sister.

Summary
But then the back of his hand hits Ratio’s.
It’s an accident—it always is when it’s the two of them—but the result is the same.
… his hands are surprisingly soft.
It is not an insult or crass comment. It is not something superficial or sharp. It isn’t even belittling. No, the words that sound just like Ratio that flutter around in his head are so agonizingly gentle that Aventurine swears he feels dizzy from it.
Or, Aventurine temporarily acquires the ability to not only read the minds of the cat cakes, but also those around him. Ratio's thoughts are far kinder than Aventurine had anticipated. It may just be the impetus they need to finally clear the air.

Summary
He’s tall, in a pressed dark suit, and except for one crooked tooth visible when his lips part, the guy looks like he should be in a high-end magazine, not standing in a nondescript coffee shop at 7:40 AM.
“What can I get started for you?” Till asks routinely, despite his surprise at being observed so closely.
The other man seems to buffer. “Till?” he asks, sounding oddly breathless. Maybe he’s running late to work.
“Mhmm,” Till hums, trying not to let his impatience show. “What coffee would you like today?” he repeats.
“Do you know my name?” The man asks instead, and Till blinks up at him, unimpressed. He lets out a long-suffering sigh.
“You’re not wearing a name tag, so no,” Till finally replies, tapping his index finger at the nameplate on his own chest. “Look, we’re not supposed to rush customers, but it’s too early for this. Do you want to order something?” He spells out the question extra slowly this time. The black haired man looks down at the ground, almost dejected.
“It’s Ivan,” the man says in a soft voice, barely audible.
OR: Reincarnation AU. Till doesn't know why Ivan is so attached to him. Those nightmares couldn't have any relevance, right?
