    Summary

    By their third mission—between the crass jokes, the mindless banter, and the heated glares Ratio sends him when Aventurine’s jokes cross some invisible line—the tension snaps under the weight of it all.

    Ratio’s hand slams against the wall mere inches from Aventurine’s face. Eyes like no sunset Aventurine has ever seen bore into him. It leaves Aventurine feeling both utterly exposed and yet so very empty.

    “Hit a nerve?” Aventurine guesses. His interest is piqued, but not his fear.

    There's something about the new partner he's had for a few missions. It can't just be that handsome bust of his. There's something simmering under the surface that is different about Doctor Veritas Ratio. Aventurine is determined to find out what that is.
