Summary
"Now. Must I remediate basic survival instincts, as well? Stand up or get shot."
Aventurine doesn't understand half of those words, but it doesn't matter. The gun speaks clearly enough.
Kakavasha's riskiest gamble pays off, and he is hired by the Interastral Peace Corporation as Aventurine. A second chance at life, if he can survive it.
Without a Synesthesia Beacon, every conversation is a puzzle, a bluff. The new Stoneheart has learned to fake fluency in the IPC's language, Universalis, the same way he learned everything else: through observation and context, by slipping through the cracks with charm and deception.
That is, until Dr. Ratio cares enough to scrutinize him, and refuses to look away.

Summary
Ratio stares back at him. The typical acuity of his eyes has dulled into something more welcoming. He raises a hand, the pads of his gloved fingers brushing against the gems of Aventurine’s earring. “Peacock feathers do not fade or lose their shiny luster, even after the animal has died.”
“I didn’t think you’d be a maundering drunk,” Aventurine scowls, but doesn’t tilt his head away from Ratio’s hand. The doctor’s words are something that Aventurine is neither drunk nor sober enough to ruminate on.
or, five conversations aventurine and ratio don't have and one they finally do.

Summary
“She'll need stability,” he says after a moment. He finds Aventurine's gaze over the girl’s head. “You'll need to figure out what you plan to do in this…venture of yours. We will deduce a plan of action once you’ve decided.”
There it is again, that casually spoken ‘we’.
Aventurine laughs weakly, plucking at a blue crayon. “Yeah,” he says. “Yeah, we will.”
Or:
Without a contingency to fall back on, Aventurine rescues an orphan from the wreckage of her home-world. Ratio, perceptive as ever, finds out.
And then helps.Bookmarked by Scherez

Summary
"I don't know what you mean, doctor. Surely, you've had more liquor than-,"
"Everything about you is fake. You have no idea who you actually are, do you?" Ratio leaned forward with a scathing expression as he spat, “You don’t care that you’re hurting yourself, because there isn't even anybody there to hurt. You’re so far into this farce, this character that you play, nothing matters to you anymore. So fine, Aventurine, keep it up. Don’t worry about getting better for me, or you, or anybody. Just remember the next time you're running around these galas and dinners and parties, and you’re all done up on the outside like the clamorous little peacock you are, with your chains and your rings and all this frivolous fabric,” he said, flicking the fur that was draped around Aventurine's neck, “Inside, you’re the same empty, pathetic man you always have been. You cannot purchase what your soul lacks.”

Aventurine would rather hide what’s hurting him under poker, parties, and piles of money. Ratio doesn't like it one bit.Bookmarked by Scherez

Summary
The first time Aventurine offers to sleep with one Doctor Veritas Ratio, it's supposed to be business as usual.
In Aventurine’s experience, everyone in the Guild is hungry for praise, happy to have their egos stroked, and if they happen to get their dick wet at the same time, even better.Everyone is happy.
Except, apparently, Ratio, who seems to have missed the memo.
—-
Or a handful of times Aventurine and Ratio find themselves sleeping together – literally or figuratively– and a few times they don’t.More serious than it sounds.

Summary
Ever since Penacony, Aventurine has had this nagging feeling that he's fated to be ever in the doctor's debt. Had he even thanked Ratio for his dutiful performance back there? For offering his faith and wisdom where Aventurine was certain they'd be parting ways forever? Had Aventurine succinctly expressed his thanks for the way Ratio had single-handedly offered to oversee his care in the months following?
If Aventurine can even begin to repay that selflessness, he suspects that this mission is an adequate place to start.
—
Investigating a piece of technology on a distant planet, Ratio is struck down by a curse that renders him empty, grieving, and yearning for a closeness only Aventurine can provide.

Summary
If his eyes could glow, he'd most certainly sell them. Anyone would be a fool not to.
When his information and photo is put onto a black market website with a hefty sum for his head, it is Aventurine himself who takes on the task of infiltrating the market with the intent to either raze it to the ground, or turn it into something profitable for the IPC. Truly, the only entertaining element is that it is Veritas Ratio who must follow him through a swarm of hunters waiting to sink their claws deep into his throat.

Summary
Whatever Ratio had drunk, it must have been strong for him to be acting like this. “Yeah, Doc, it’s time you go to sleep-”
“I love you.”
Aventurine’s head whipped back into place to face Ratio. Those words couldn’t be real. Not coming out of Ratio’s mouth, and not directed towards Aventurine. He needed confirmation. He needed confirmation that this was real, he wasn’t dreaming, he wasn’t insane, he was here, he was real and that actually happened. Because not even in his wildest dreams would something as impossible as this occur. Desperately, Aventurine seized Ratio’s arms which were loosening around him as he looked to him for validation.
Aventurine stared at him in horror.
Ratio was passed out.
◇─◇──◇─◇
A drunk Ratio admits he loves Aventurine. Only Aventurine remembers the confession by the next morning.

My series of fics depicting Ratio and Aventurine's developing relationship from the 2.1 update to post-canon and beyond. All fics in this series are loosely related and should be in chronological order, but they can certainly be read as stand-alone pieces!

Summary
This is my attempt at creating a vague timeline for RatioRine, with the Final Victor Light Cone as their first meeting. I will be mixing canon/headcanon up until post 2.1, and after that we ball. Everything past that will be my own rendition and timeline. I really just wanted an excuse to explore Aventurine and Ratio's relationship since they obviously have known/worked together prior to the Penacony arc, but at the same time mostly focus on Aventurine and Ratio's relationship after 2.1. I just love them so much.
There are not many things that can strike Dr. Ratio to the core and leave such a lasting impression. However when he gets partnered with a fresh new Stoneheart, something within him changes. Ratio becomes drawn to Aventurine, caring for him when seemingly no one else will. At the same time Aventurine struggles to understand and accept the genuine care. Everything around him crumbles as he stands victorious above everyone else's failures, and Ratio should be no different. So when the time comes where he'd finally, truly willing to risk it all, what happens?

Summary
He holds out his hand, the matte metal of his palm illuminated in the overhead light. “Tell me something’,” he says, “are you really gonna give that man the satisfaction of breaking you? Or are you gonna help me ransack this place before getting the heck out of dodge?”
The kid stares at him. For a second, Boothill thinks he spots a glimmer of something in those deep-well eyes.
His hand’s nothing but skin and bone, but it barely shakes when it settles in Boothill’s mechanical palm. “Where do we start?” He asks.
AKA Boothill finds Aventurine before Jade does and extends a helping hand.

Summary
“So what you’re saying is you’re going to kiss me and fuck me until all I want to do is stay alive,” Aventurine says after a grueling minute of confusion. “Right. That’s…wow.”
Ratio winces. “Must you be so crude? If you need me to engage in physical activity with you, then yes. But that’s not the main point here. If my presence will heal you, then we must capitalize on this precious opportunity your vacation has given you and make immediate changes to accommodate your needs.”
“...So you are saying you’re going to fuck me senseless—”
“No, you imbecile!” Ratio scowls, eyes narrowing into a glare. “I’m asking you to move in with me!”
“What,” Aventurine says so blandly, so blindly that he chokes on thin air. He stops to pause and breathe, focusing on not dying from lack of oxygen because- “What the fuck?”
Or in which Aventurine is suffering from the side effects of the Nihility and Ratio’s grand solution is to ask the gambler to move in with him. Aventurine has no idea how this thing called domesticity works, but hey, at least they’re working together again.

Summary
Penacony storyline, with the addition of everything that happened between Ratio and Aventurine which we weren't told. Canon-compliant.
"Of course out of all people, you had to have a big dick. But that doesn't count since it's proportional."
Ratio raised an eyebrow at that, "Size isn't proportional with your height nor weight."
Aventurine smirked before groaning, and Ratio felt like he walked right into a trap. "I am not talking about height nor weight, doctor. I am simply saying that it's most of the time proportional to your personality."
Aventurine laughed out loud at Ratio's stare, feeling proud of the doctor's dumbfounded expression. Ratio sighed in defeat, "Well done gambler, ten points. However, if I were you, I would think twice about biting the hand thatfingersfeeds you."Bookmarked by Scherez

Summary
Ratio stared back at him with something even more guarded. “I must say, I don’t trust that look you’re wearing.”
Aventurine played innocent. “What look?”
“That one. Whatever you're thinking up there, I promise you, it’s not as important as being wise.”
Aventurine smiled. “Doctor, I’ve never been wise.”
