Summary
Aventurine is an escort hired by Ratio for a single undercover assignment. But when Ratio's enemies mistake their fabricated connection for genuine weakness, what was meant to be one night spirals into cohabitation. Trapped under the same roof, their carefully maintained boundaries begin to crack, and the line between performance and reality becomes dangerously blurred.

"You're nervous," Aventurine observed quietly.
"I'm not—"
"Your left hand. You keep clenching and unclenching it. It's a tell." Aventurine reached over without looking, his fingers brushing Ratio's wrist. His touch was light, impersonal, gone almost before Ratio registered the touch. "Relax, Doctor. This is the easy part. All you have to do is stand there looking intelligent and vaguely possessive. I'll handle the rest."
"That's what concerns me."
"Ah." Aventurine's smile was sharp. "Worried I'll enjoy it? Worried the Senator will be too easy to manipulate? Or worried that you hired exactly the kind of person you claim to despise for doing exactly the kind of thing you need done?" He tilted his head. "It's okay to be hypocritical, Doctor. We all are, eventually. The trick is learning to live with it."

Summary
On a different day, they would had dragged each other out of here as fast as they could —whether they had to shove each other in a restroom stall or shove each other into the backseat of Ratio’s car.
On a different day, they would had broken speed limits if it meant reaching their bedroom ten minutes faster.
But that would take too long.
Way too long.

Summary
The ballroom that the masquerade is being held in is beautiful, all crystal chandeliers and sparkling decorations, champagne and tiny appetizers, meaningless polite conversation and networking. Aventurine thinks that in another life, he might have liked events like these. Might have felt more at home in the suit that rubs uncomfortably against his wrists, might have been a little better at laughing at some executive’s terrible joke, might have been able to stomach the food a little more. Or maybe he would have just been better at pretending he fit in with this life. Even in another world, Aventurine would still be the same Avgin orphan; maybe his suits would have always hung a little loose, no matter how good he got at pretending he was comfortable in them.

zero-day exploit by meathermac for Azure_Ace
Fandoms: 崩坏：星穹铁道 | Honkai: Star Rail (Video Game)
09 Aug 2024
Tags
Summary
zero-day exploit (n.)
a vulnerability in software or hardware that is unknown to the vendor and for which no patch or other fix is available, named so because it can be exploited quickly, giving the vendor zero days to respond to the issue.
♤
“Look, I don’t know you, and you don’t know me, but we’re both here ‘cause we’re running away from something. And if you’re like me, and you don’t want to be found, Punklorde can help you with that.”
(or: aventurine makes a different choice, sets his life on a new trajectory, and still manages to find and fall in love with dr. veritas ratio.)

Summary
“Now now, Dr. Ratio,” the speaker spoke through a strained smile. “We can’t be too hasty with our words considering you are the prize for tonight.”
“Preposterous,” Dr. Ratio spit.
Aventurine attends a gala ran by the Intelligentsia Guild, doesn't have a good time, but still manages to come out a winner.

Summary
Aventurine leaned against the railing of his balcony, pulled his lighter out, and—
The garden was empty. Stems swayed softly in the wind, leaves rustling, though the sliding door never opened, and no water ever poured into the can.
Strange.
One warm summer evening, Dr. Ratio, his hot neighbor with a passion for gardening, doesn't show up to tend to his flowers. Or the next, or the one after that.
Aventurine, curious about what would keep such a dedicated man from his hobby, goes investigate.What follows is a tale of broken routines and the joy (and sexual frustration) those changes will bring.

Summary
Ratio shifts forward. “If there is something I can do to assist you, Aventurine, then I will try my best to—”
“I need you to marry me.”
To escape a bureaucratic shitstorm brought on by his less-than-complete onboarding paperwork, Aventurine comes to Ratio with a proposal: stay married for a period of two years, then get an easy, quickie divorce once Aventurine's residency status is secure.
Only, it's not enough for them to simply get married; the marriage has to look legitimate too. Which is fine. Aventurine can act the part. Except, he's not really acting. Not anymore. And this last-minute trip to visit Ratio's family in Bumfuck Nowhere, Veritas Prime as Ratio's newly minted fiancé is threatening to prove it.

Summary
Instantly, Veritas is doused in lilacs, surrounding him in a heady fragrance reminiscent of his mama’s flower shop.
Unlike back home, however, the interior is littered in what he can only describe as: excessive. There are loveseats and round tables covered in vintage frilled fabric, among other heart-shaped furniture. Even the booths have cordate tabletops. Up front is a counter decked in product displays, carefully rearranged by what is actually the most glaring thing in the room.
Not so much a thing but a person—weaves of golden hair fraying below the neck, flouncy dark skirt inching until mid-thigh, white stockings squeezing apparent supple flesh. Upon the ding of the entrance’s bell, the figure’s head whips around, surprising him with irises that bloomed in purple and blue.
Shoulders broad, chest flat, chin sharp, all among other aspects Veritas knows plenty about, whether due to his chosen career path or his sexuality.
That is a man in a maid dress.
or: Veritas, nearly a year in med school, does not know what to do with the preposterous conditions of his heart after meeting a certain maid. Kakavasha likes it that way.

Summary
Their objective tonight isn’t particularly dangerous, thankfully. They just have to gather details on a target, one who is almost certain to be at this establishment later in the night. To avoid suspicion, they’re entering the venue a couple hours early as a pair—far more trustworthy than a single person who showed up right before or right after her.
It makes plenty of logical sense. That doesn’t mean Ratio has to enjoy it as much as Aventurine does. He’s even more irritated that he can’t wear his headpiece without sticking out.
Aventurine twirls around with a flourish, a grin on his face. “Au contraire, docteur! I’m thinking of nothing but the operation.” He steps closer, brushing Ratio’s hands away from where they’re fidgeting with his shirt and undoing a couple buttons—almost instantly, he can breathe much easier. “We have to blend in, right? No way to blend in at a casino other than…” He finishes adjusting the collar, smirking wryly up at him.
Ratio and Aventurine are on a mission involving a casino. Before they get down to business, Aventurine plans to have some fun, and Ratio's getting dragged into it, even if he isn't playing.

Summary
“You’ve really let your work pile up, huh?” Aventurine asks. “Good thing I’m here to help you out. Leave this all to me.”
No. Absolutely not. He’ll almost certainly get fired if this idiot gets involved. As Ratio tries to sit up, though, he’s captured in another coughing fit and sinks into his bed with a miserable groan.
“I’m not gonna break anything,” Aventurine says. He pulls the logbook out from underneath a pile of papers. “Just gonna update what I can.”
“If you get me fired, I’m going to skin you,” Ratio hisses.
“Noted.”
The smile doesn’t falter on his lips.- Language:

Summary
“Aventurine.”
Her face blanks in seriousness. For the first time in the whole conversation, he focuses on the redness of her mask.
“You’re bothered.”
Above her, barely in view, a man’s blue hair flashes, twirls, the visage of the mask of an owl’s wings striking around pale flesh and touching the crown of his lined, neutral lips.
Or: Aventurine is not a man of jealousy. And he is sensible, as frivolous and vain as his Cornerstone. But increasingly, there's something like madness in how he'll throw it all away for a man with eyes of dawn.

"Veritas," he whispers.
"Yes, love?"
Oh, that's—he's never called Aventurine that before. Not like that. Never so softly. The endearment lands with enough force to propel him forward before doubt can catch up.
“When you get back,” Aventurine ventures, finally letting the thought leave the safety of his head, “do you want to move in?”
A year in the life of Aventurine and Veritas—and the nerve-wracking ordeal of figuring out the whole relationship thing.

“So, you admit you were wrong. I am nothing but a foolish drunkard, after all,” Aventurine says with a laugh.
“Not quite.” Ratio shakes his head. “You are not like the other fools. You are not drunk on fate or destiny. Only on reckless abandon.”
“And you on soft sentimentality,” Aventurine counters with a grin. “Look carefully, doc! I’m just a drunk man. Drunk on success, drunk on his own pitiable luck, and…” Aventurine drops his arms, letting them hang limply beside him. He hiccups, grin morphing into a lop-sided smirk. “And drunk on you, my dear doctor.”
