Summary
Veritas gestures at the glasses, a smile that doesn’t reach his eyes strewn across his face.
“Is it half full or half empty?”
Aventurine’s laugh this time is even breathier. “It looks like wine to me.”
“I see. So that’s the type of person you are.”
Or, that story where Aventurine goes undercover as a stripper (amongst other things) to infiltrate Intelligentsia Corporation by befriending and bedding the young millionaire heir to the throne. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

Summary
In the span of four weeks, the recipient has reordered the same garment five times. The delivery person does not want to speculate what has happened to the previous cardigans: a particularly destructive pet, wine stains, gifts to family members?
What does one man need so many identical sweaters for, anyway?
Aventurine keeps stealing Ratio's cardigans to nest with. Eventually, the good doctor catches on and stops by with a heat care package. Sometimes, it's just that simple.

Summary
“You’re being more amenable than usual,” Ratio says, carefully, warning bells blaring. “Perhaps you should be feverish more often.”
Is Doctor Ratio flirting?
Aventurine should laugh. Any previous thoughts of seeing Doctor Ratio flirt had involved chalk and terrible mathematical pick-up lines. This? Well, it was relatively smooth.
But he doesn’t laugh.
Or, after encountering some strange magic on a mission with Ratio, Aventurine wakes not only with a sister but also the title of "Prince". And apparently he's engaged to Ratio. What luck.

Summary
The gambler reeks of alcohol; it won't serve any purpose to cater to the whims of someone who is so evidently impaired.
Kakavasha opens his mouth.
“…I wish to meet ▇▇▇.”
And then—
Glass seems to break, crack, shatter all across. It shows on Lapis’ face—something abrupt and vaguely familiar.
The hand on Kakavasha’s cheek slackens, lowers, falls. It falls, but it doesn’t tumble fully out of reach—the doctor’s fingers, instinctively tightening around Lapis’ wrist.
“…I see.”
Lapis looks at him—in hurt, in regret, in self-loathing, in too many things Kakavasha sees in his own reflection.
“…My apologies,” a breath; something tender, “I don’t know where he is either.”
…Oh.
“Oh,” Kakavasha says.
——
Or, scripts are swapped and roles are reversed. It changes nothing and everything.

Summary
"Perhaps, Dr. Ratio is exactly what everyone would picture a genius to be — passionate, profound, fervent, and inherently dominating."
But brilliance alone cannot fill the void of a father’s absence or a mother’s cold ambition.
When Professor Rond crosses paths with a child prodigy, he sees not just an exceptional mind, but the emotionally-deprived boy beneath it. With love and care, that boy grows into the beloved scholar the cosmos knows as Dr. Ratio — a man who, against all odds, finds his place in the great world around him.
Or: How Dr. Ratio came to be.
