Summary
He couldn't avoid the doctor forever. These past couple of weeks, Aventurine had been living in the fantasy that even if everything else had become grey, Ratio would stay normal; the only light in his life. Even when everything else was as grim as death, those eyes of dawn would still shine. No matter what emotion adorned them, they had always been the lighthouse guiding Aventurine on these uncharted waters.
They would always be his home. The dawn after a long, hopeless night.
And now, there was Veritas Ratio, in all his handsomeness. Except, he was grey.
And his eyes—
Or: Nihility steals all colors from Aventurine's life

Summary
Following the events of the 3.2 Archon quest, Scaramouche finds himself with the opportunity to start again. But is it worth it?
Because going back to square one and picking himself up again is exhausting. All his efforts have been in vain, and only his wretched emotions remain. Perhaps the people of Sumeru, their gentle god, and a certain maple-adorned wanderer can bring the shine back into his eyes.
But moving on is never that easy, is it?
Turns out that fate still has many plans for him. His third act is far from over.

Summary
Kaveh raises his hands, palms up. "I have nothing to give, Al-Haitham," he says, and the other's eyes grow fierce.
"You do not have nothing, Kaveh," Al-Haitham says roughly. "You may have buried yourself in your self-doubt, but you are relentless. You shine even when the moon takes governance of the sky."
Kaveh gapes at Al-Haitham. "So what I'm hearing," he says slowly, "is that you will not kick me out for the time being."
"What you're hearing is that I will wait for you," says Al-Haitham.
After all this time, Kaveh has yet to unpack his bags.

Summary
Alhaitham doesn’t know why he can’t shut it out—he’s heard it all before, doesn’t care to indulge. But with Kaveh it’s like the penultimate chapter of a story, the hushed moment before the dramatic curtain opens and the final act is revealed. Simply put, Alhaitham needs more.
So he blocks out the nose of distraction everywhere else: the Akademiya, the city streets, even his own mind when necessary. But not Kaveh. Never Kaveh.
♬
Kaveh's started singing around the house. Secretly, Alhaitham is listening.

Summary
He thought about his home, he thought about what awaited him. He thought about Diamond's mission he gave him recently, he thought about Opal's words he said to him this past week. He thought about Ratio and how he would explain their future mission, how he would explain anything from that. He thought about all of this and nothing at all, and eventually, his body and subconscious found their way back on their own, even if Aventurine didn’t remember any of it.
Somehow, he found himself on the threshold of Ratio's house, and his mind cleared. It became easier to breathe.
And now, Aventurine listens to the steady heartbeat, leaning on Ratio's chest until he decides to break the peaceful silence. "It was raining today."
"Indeed, it was."
or, it is raining in Pier Point, Aventurine reminded by his past, and Dr. Ratio always knows how to provide a right comfort.
